A Map of the New Europe
We believe that it is the best map of Europe in the world today. We
believe this because It was compiled by those men of the United States
Geological Survey who are the otfldal map makers of the government,
because they were assisted in the task by President Wilson's experts
who have just returned from the Peace Conference.
The map is printed in nine colon which, show the Allied territory, enemy
territory, neutral territory, territory that has changed hands, territory
out of which new nations have been built, territory subject to plebiscite,
territory of undetermined nationality.
It la a graphic picture of the results of four years of fighting, a picture
so painted as to make the results most easily understood.
This map was specially made for the Washington Information Bureau
of this paper in collaboration with the Savings Division of the Treas
ury Department. When it is sent out it is accompanied by a bulletin
entitled HOW OTHER PEOPLE GET AHEAD, laying down a working
plan tor saving for any man of any salary, a plan which leads toward
the goal of prosperity.
To get this map and this booklet fill out the attached coupon, enclose
a two-cent stamp for return postage, and mail as indicated.

MESA. July IS. An attempt was
. made at 9 o'clock Wednesday night to
rob Ju Sing, a Chinese merchant hav
ing a little store beyond the city limits
in the Mexican settlement just north
and east of the water plant. At the
hour mentioned tha Chinaman had
closed his store and was in the rear
room cooking his supper. Hearing a
knock at the front door, he opened it
and admitted two Mexicans who said
they wanted a dimes' worth of candy.
As Ju Sing was getting out thp sandy
he noticed the men pulling pistols from
their pockets. He mad" a histy dash
for the door and once outside gave a
lusty yell of alarm which brought to
his assistance several Mexican men
who live in that vicinity. The would
be holdup men made their escape with
out securing any booty. Some of the
MeTicans present claimed that they
recognized the thieves.
. This is a third time Ju Sing has had
a similar experience, with the excep
tion that on both former occasions the
robbers got away with some money.

01 COAST OFFERED
With preparations practically com
plete and actual construction soon to
start on the b:g new Goodyear plant
at Los Angeles which will use quanti
ties of Arizona cotton in its products,
announcement was received here yes
terday of the informal offering on toe
market of 8, 00.000 in cumulative pre
ferred stock of the Goodyear Tire and
Rubber company of California. The
stock is "to he of the seven per cent
rate and is being handled by Cyrus
Pierce and company of the insurance
exchange, San Francisco and the Cit
izen's National Bank building, Los
Angeles.
The proceeds of the sale of this stock
will be used to erect a plant for the
newly formed Goodyear Tire and Rub
ber company of California in the city
of Los Angeles. The necessity fortius
new plant has arisen through the in
ability of the parent company, the
Goodyear Tire and Rubber company
of Akron, Ohio, to keep pace with the
ever-growing demand for Goodyear
products in the far west.
The new plant will take over all the
Goodyear business on the Pacific slope
and the Mountain slopes. Until the
plant is in a condition to supply the
demand, the Akron company will turn
over the necessary goods to the new
company.
On the basis of last year's sales,
which amounted to more than $13,000,
000 in the territory to be covered by
the new company, it is estimated that
there will be a net profit over three
times the amount necessary to pay the
dividends on this issue of preferred
stock. The profit will result solely
from the distribution of Goodyear pro
ducts procured from the Akron plant.
When the California plant is completed
there will be added to this the manu
facturing profit which now goes to the
Akron company.

SVHITE IS REIGNING
SHADE THIS SUMMEB
"With the showing that was made, I
do not believe the interstate commerce
commission will be able to put into
effect the proposed increased rates for
icing Arizona products." said F. A.
Jones of the Arizona corporation com
mission, upon his return yesterday
from the hearing in Los Angeles be
fore C. B. Marshall, attorney and ex
aminer for the interstate board.
'"This hearing," continued Mr. Jones,
"was the first of a series of hearings
to be held all over the country by the
commission to determine the advisa
bility of putting into effect increased
icing tariffs all over the country. The
railroad administration was represent
e by experts of all sorts, and by at
torneys; California was represented by
delegates from the citrus league, the
vegetable growers' union, the meat in
dustry, and others, and there were)
representatives present from most of j
the intermountain states. I represent-1
ed Arizona for the corporation com
mission and in behalf of the growers
of perishable products in this state.
"My contention was not that Arizona
objected to paying whatever rate was
just, cost considered, hut that we do
object to paying discriminatory rates.
I developed from the witnesses, on
cross examination, and by my own
testimony, that it takes two more
icings for most California products
than for those grown in this stat,
and contended that there was no jus
tice in equality of rates."
Later on Mr. Jones proposes to file
a brief along the same lines, pointing
out that mileage, time, and the number
of icings should be determining fac
tors in setting equitable rates.

SOLD
SETTLEII
The state land board, at its regular
meeting, passed a resolution by unani
mous vote requesting the state board of
equalization not to make a levy this
year for the soldier settlement act.
The reason for this action by the
land board, which by virtue of the pro
visions of the state soldier settlement
act is also the soldier settlement board,
is that there is very small likelihood
of any money being needed for this pur
pose this year, as the national soldier
settlement act has not been passed bv
congress, and If it does pass it will take
some time to get the administrative
machinery in motion, and the state
funds will not be needed until there is
need of co-operation, as the bill was
passed for the purpose of co-operating
with the federal government in this
matter.
Another reason is that the bill car
ries an open, or blanket, appropriation
and a special levy would not be nec
essary for the preliminary expenses, as
they may be paid out of the general
fund.
There has been much concern in cer
tain quarters as to the large expense
to the state that this act might entail,
which was later set at rest bv the
statement by Governor Thomas E
Campbell that if the bill passed with
the J500.000.000 appropriation with
which it, was introduced, the share of
Arizona would be only $10,000,000.
TAKES UP BILLBOARD FIGHT
'l fete?- ' JW
This summer white is ahead oi
everything, both for morning weal
nd for dressier occasions. On
makes no mistake if the entire ward
robe for summer includes only white
things. This white georgette has a
particular appeal for afternoon
wear. Buttons and handwork form
the only trimming.
(New York Herald)
Opening a fight on billboards in city
streets ana avenues, the National As
sociation ot Real Estate Boards, in
convention at Atlantic City, places its
interested strength behind a public
seruimeni wnicn nas been able already
in a numDer or ciwes to effect whole
some reforms in the indicated direc
tion. Washington has abolished bill
boards. Chicago regulates them by a
principle of majority consent. In Bos
ton a charter provision is directed
against them.
New Tork has experienced several
anti-billboard agitations without vis
ible effect. Broadway still suffers
visitations of ugly boardings. Along
Riverside Drive choice beauty spots of
sloping lawn are spread before back
grounds of unsightly advertising ris
ing to levels of second story window
tops. Such obtrusive structures of
fend the intelligent eye. The men at
Atlantic City find that they also can
affect seriously the values of real
esta'te and of bonds issued to cover
investments in parks, parkways and
boulevards.
For the billboards there is no plea
of public necessity. They are institu
tions purely of private profit. No
ranking for general convenience is to
be accorded to them. They lack the
qualities of fantastic display and the
virtue of assisting materially in the
illumination of a great city which has
disarmed esthetic critics of the elec
tric night advertising signs along shop
ping fronts and skylines.
Billboards in cities are indeed the
unbecoming products of a special in
dulgence. When that indulgence is
withdrawn by urban authority, it may
be found practicable to clean up the
landscape along rural drives and
cross-country railway lines.

Rll
Joe Soto, who as a small boy was
connected with the carrier force of The
Republican is in town again after an
absence of four stirring years. After
traveling pretty much all over the
United States to see how big it was he
got into the army and went to France,
where he took part in four drives on
different parts of the line. None of his
old acquaintances knew him when he
came back. After a few days here he
will leave for Globe, where he worked
before setting out on his tour to see
things.
Although he fought with the 89th di
vision on several sectors, the only in
jury Soto received was in a boxing ex
hibition. He won the lightweight
championship of the Seventh army
corps while abroad.
