Urged To Show Their Good Faith by Proceeding
Rapidly as Possible

which will issue a formal order to that effect today. -
, The hearing for better, passenger terminal facilities
vas held' Monday morning and was" a continuation of a
learing instigated by the commission three months ago.
U that time a continuance was granted on the ground
hat the roads had just been returned by the government
md that they were not in a position to take any irame
'.iate action. .
Roads Are Willing
"While representatives of both roads
expressed their willingness to improve
lepot facilities, time was asked in
shich to submit plans. The first sug
gestion of the union depot came from
C M. Scott, general manager of the
Arizona Kastorn. who presented the
iiews of Epea Randolph, president of
Jh road, which were .set forth in a let
ter by George Furdy Billiard, solicitor.
Commissioner F. A. Jones stated that
.he door had been left open to the rail
roads as to location and whether union
or single depots be built. He said while
the matter had been discussed only in
formally, the commission and the city
were unanimous for a union station.
He pointed out that the union depot
would be economical to the road and
convenient to the public. -
With the idea of securing a main
line through Phoenix, the Arizona
Eastern stated it would welcome the
idea. No opposition was offered by
the Santa Fe, and the two roads will
co-operate and present plans to the
commission as soob as possible. They
were urged '"to show the people" they
were In earnest about the matter by
proceeding as rapidly as the plans
could be presented.
t To Discuss Plans
V. A. Drake of Frescott, superinten
dent; F. P. Cruice, assissant general
passenger asent. and L. II. Chalmers,
counsel for the yanta Fe, were present
at. the hearing and will meet with of
ficials of the Arizona Eastern to fur
ther discuss the plans.
The attitude of the Arizona Eastern
as presented by Mr. Dullard follows:
Arizona Corporation Commission,
State House, Phoenix, Ariz.
Centlemen:
I am authorized by the president of
the Arizona Eastern Railroad company,
Col. Epes Randolph, to report to you
that the Arizona Eastern Railroad
company is willing to improve its pas
senger station facilities in the city ot
Phoenix, and that such improvement
will be made in either one of two ways:
First, by the establishment and con
struction of a union depot that will
serve both the Arizona Eastern Rail
road company and the Santa Fe, Pres
oott & PhoenU Railway company; or.
Secondly, by the construction of a
separate passenger depot for the use of
the Arizona Eastern Railroad company,
and one that will be adequate to oc
commodate those patrons and be com
mensurate with the size of the ci:y
of Phoenix.
Of the above indicated methods, the
Arizona Eastern Railroad company
prefers the establishment of a union
depot, i
No agreement has yet been reached
between the carriers as to whether or
not a union 'n pot should be estab
lished.
As the commission has not indicated
which of the above methods of improv
ing the passenger station facilities is
the one they prefer, we have felt that
it would he useless, and lime lias not
enabled us. to prepare two sets o:
plains, one for a union depot and one
for a single structure. It' the commis
sion will indicate which type of im
provement of passenger facilities they
desire to have constructed and main
tained,'1 we will then ask for a period
of 90 days in which to file plans and
specifications according to the type in
dicated by the commission.

According to thuWecords of the local
weather bureau for last month, the
temperature for April was greatly de
ficient, being . much colder "especially
from the 9th to theTth. when the tem

the last three days of the month the
weather became seasonable.
For the entire month there was a
shortage of 68 degrees, or two degrees
a day, which gave much concern to
the cotton growers. There were no
cloudy days in April. Eight days were
partly cloudy and tho rest clear.
Phoenix kept up its reputation for
sunshine, there bein,g 91 per cent of
possible sunshine, 10 per cent of the

Plans Are Made for Demon
stration Which Is Ex
pected To Add Much To
Fund Many More Work
ers are Needed
Today is Salvation Army day at
Phoenix Union high . school.
Plans have been completed for a
snappy one-day drive for funds -which
is expected to net $250 for the organiz
ation if every student and teacher does
his part. Every studnet is expected
to bring a quarter for the cause, if
possible. Scattered around at various
advantageous spots on the campus will
be Salvation Array kettles, suspended
from tripods. These devices will be
presided over by fair members of the
student body, thus maKing it an easy j
matter to part with the required coin.
The campaign was launched yester
day at tin assembly of the students at
which the plans were discussed and
talks delivered by promnient Phoeni
cians. AV. V. Carpenter, chairman of the
day, first introduced Dr. Kennedy,
committee chairman for the state in
the present drive. He delviered a very
forceful address on thv? relation be
tween the Salvation Army and the
Elks lodge. He sppke of the reasons
why the Elks had taken upon them
selves the responsibility of being a big
brother to the Army, the many great
services of which he touched upon very
effectively.
"Doughnuts" at Front
Captain Harding, of" the Salvation
Army, also was introduced at the as
sembly. Ho made n "strong appeal to
the students to be liberal in their do
nations to the cause.
C. I. Jones then took the floor and
clinched the arguments already pre
sented by an interesting account of the
work of '-Doughnuts" at the front in
France. His characteristic speech was
received with enthusiasm by the stu
dents. "The ready responses to appeals for
subscriptions id a wonderful tribute
to the estimation in which the Salva
tion Army is held," said Chairman
Luke Henderson. "Saturday night.
when we had speakers at all of the
local theaters and young ladies solicit
ing funds in the aisles for the Salva
tion Army home building, there was
not a suspicion of impatience at th.
interruption, but all seemed glad of the
opportunity to help the cause along.
More than $100 was given by fans at
the ball game yesterday, which was

Her husband had telephoned late
that an important business acquaint

"Then have muffins." suggested
Tom, cheerfully resourceful.
"Tom Urinkly, you know I never
have luck with muffins," groaned Ann. .
She hung up. the receiver and turned
to young Mrs. Katon. "I don't know
why I can't make good muffins, Bar
bara. I like them just 'as much as
Tom does, but somehow mine are
never successful. And how I hate to
got up earlier to make them!'
"Why not mix them tonight and
bake them tomorrow morning?" said
Uarbara calmly. Ann looked at her
in amazement. "Have you jyiy liyzun
Haklng Powder?" inquired 'Barbara,
getting up briskly, "because if you
have Hyion you can get the muffins
all ready now. The latter will be
perfectly good tomorrow if you stand
it in a cool place." '
As Ann still looked incredulous, Bar
bara continued: "Oh yes, really, I
often do it myself. And you needn't
worry about the muffins turning out
right. Since I've used Ityzon I haven't
had a single baking failure. And if
you follow directions you can bake
