License Plates
Information

Failure of Arizona motor vehicle
operators to secure 1910 license
plates as soon as possible may re-
suit in unpleasant complications, it
was pointed out today by B. H.
McAhren, superintendent of the
motor vehicle division of the Arl-
zona highway department, who
urges all motorists to secure 1910
registration for their cars at once.
In previous years motor vehicle
owners have been permitted to
purchase license plates and pay
personal property and vehicular
taxes during December, and were
granted a thirty-day period of
grace during January.
Because of the manner in which
the new motor vehicle law of 1899,
passed by the last legislature, was
written, county assessors refused
to issue license plates and accept
tax payments during the final
month of 1899, despite mandate
of the law making it illegal to
operate motor vehicles upon the
public highways without 1910
license plates after midnight, De-
cember 81.
All Arizona county assessors
have joined with officials Of the
motor vehicle department urging
motorists to obtain their n W
license plates without fail during
the month of January.
Superintendent McAhren also is
sued a general warning to all per-
sons who reside in Arizona ana
make their living within the
boundaries of the state yet con
tinue to purchase license plates
for their automobiles from adJoln'
ing states. While this practice has
teen eradicate it, more strenuous
measures will be taken this year,
McAhren has stated.

Educating For Amer.
lean Democracy

Expressing a b e ! / ( that the
public schools hold a major re-
sponsibility n preserving de-
mocracy in America and in the
world, DR.. H. E. Hendrix, superin
tendent of public instruction, an
nounced the publication of a bulle-
tin entitled Educating for Ameri-
can Democracy"
The bulletin contains statements
by Governor r. T. Bob" Jones,
DR.: Hendrix and nineteen Arizona
Educators. The statements deal
with the responsibility of the
public schools.
Said Governor Jones in his con-
tribution, "The hope of democracy
lies in education of the people.
IS The public school teacher oc-
cupies a splendid vantage point as
a moulder of the youthful mind. AL
most invariably respected n d
looked up to by the school child,
and normally by the college man
and woman, the teacher can exert
a tremendous force for good.
Therefore I call upon every teach
er to renew and sustain his efforts,
as required by the laws of this
state and of humanity, to teach the
youth of Arizona the fundamental
principles of liberty, freedom, just
zee and equality-the foundation
ind the bulwark Of democratic
government in the United States"
Copies of the bulletin has been
sent to every school teacher In
Arizona and to State Departments
of Education in all other states, as
well as to many civic and educa-
tional organizations throughout the
country.

Shaking The Old
Apple Tree

An apple a day is good for any
one, especially if it keeps the
doctor away. But when our good
Government starts in to feed free
apples to million needy people
through relief agencies in nearly
all states, and keeps up the pro-
cess of buying millions of bushels
of surplus apples every month at
a price of about 70 cents bushel,
the inquiring public wonders why.
1t really does seem that they are
putting up pretty strong opposi-
ton to the other owners Of land
who grow plums, cherries, grapes,
citrus fruits, and even vegetables,
big pumpkins snd as lean as
celery.
Our agricultural department has
been given the go-sign on control
of all crops, but does that mean
that few party chiefs in Wash
ington are going to centralize the
processes of eating, as cited in the
case of apples? The agricultural
department would say no-and it
would be correct, because it has
picked out very many other Sur
plus commodities" which are be-
ing backed up with food stamps
as extra gifts to persons On re-
lief rolls.

Federal Yellow To
Adorn All State
Equipment

All Arizona Highway Depart
ment equipment will receive new,
bright coat of paint during the
first six months of 1910, accord
ing to an announcement made to-
day by George Steisel superinten-
dent of equipment of the highway
department.
And in marked contrast to
fancier color schemes of former
years and new color, with which
scores of highway cars and trucks
have already been painted, is
known as Federal Yellow"
The new p t, devised par
ticularly for road and highway
equipment is said to be peculiarly
adapted for its purpose since it is
much easier cleaned and kept
clean than the reds and silvers OF
the past.
First cars decked out in the
bright new yellow to traverse Ari-
zona Highways upon department
business have been the new sta
ton wagons used by engineering
field crews, new snow removing
equipment, and new trucks re-
ceived within the past thirty days.
