24 SHIPPING FACTS
TO BE CHANGED BY

. Republican A. P. Leased Wire
WASHINGTON-. June 16. Study of
the new shipping act anJ of the vari
ous commercial treaties which undrr
its provisions must be amended or ab
rogatjed has been started by the state
lepartment. It was learned today from
officials acquainted with American
:ommercial treaties that approximate
ly 24 of the pacts will have to be de
nounced in whole or in part -within the
next'few months, if the president fol
lows the directions of section "4 of
the new act.
So far no formal protests have been
lodged -with the department against
the act, though Premier Lloyd George
of Great Britain has stated that rep
resentations on the subject would be
made.
Complete reversal of the policy of
free reciprocal treatment of foreign
shipping, which has prevailed in the
United States since President Madi
son's administration, is said by of
ficials to be involved in a strict ap
plication of the new law which, in th'e
section iiientioned. authorizes the im
posiiion of discriminatory tonnage
dues on foreign vessels entering; Amer
ican ports. Extensive subsidies granted
to th-ir own shipping by other powers
have been held by the advocates of the
act to justify some such protective
measure of the United States.
Though Great Britain, as a leading
maritime power, is regarded as the one
most vitally affected by the new law,
in British circles it is believed that
the strongest representations and pro
tests will come from other quarters.
This reasoning is founded upon the
fact that under their free trade sys
tem the British are not able to offer
an equivalent concession to America,
having already given away freely all
that she could offer.

MURDER
OF CAPTAIN'S WIFE

ROCKFOI1D. 111.. June 16. Private
G. C. Peters is being sought by camp
authorities, suspected of having some
knowlelge of the killing1 of Mrs. L. 11.
Moss, wife of Captain Moss, who died
early this morning after having been
shot in the back of the head wnile rid
ing in the rear seat of an automobile
with her husband and friends in the
vicinity of Camp Grant hist night.
No motive for the crime can be ad
vanced. Peters is one of five prisoners
who escaped Tuesday afternoon while
working on the camp agricultural
farm and is said to have threatened to
get even with Captain Moss, his com
mander, for having made charges
against him at three courts martial.
Chicago authorities have been sup
plied with the names and descriptions
of the missing prisoners, as it is be
lieved the men are now in hiding in
that city, having escaped on a freight
train.

10 Declaring unconstitutional the
lesolution providing for a six-day
week for hotel clerks, presented by the
Pacific Coast delegation to the con
vention of the Greeters of America,
now in session here. President Leonard
Hicks of Chicago prevented the pro
posal from going to a vote on the con
vention floor. 1'pon the refusal of the
president to consider the proposal,
tumult broke loose among the dele
gates, fully 30 minutes being required
to restore order, after which adjourn
ment was taken.
Almost the entire session tonight
hinged around a proposal to make the
secretaryship a position on a straight
salary basis. As such it was offered
to Leigh Fuller, veteran hotel clerk of
Los Angeles and a. candidate for presi
dent. With his acceptance and elimina
tion from the race for president, the
contest has narrowed down between II.

WASHINGTON. June 16 National
business is being ''pared down" through
embargoes and priorities to fit the ca
pacity of the country's railroads,
George H. Cushing. managing director
of the American Wholesale Coal as
sociation, declared today in an ad
dress before the City club of Wash
ington. Mr. Cushing, who is shippers'
representative on the local terminal
committee appointed by the interstate
commerce commission, said his "r
marks should not be construed as a
criticism of the agencies now working
to overcome freight congestion.
Mr. Cushing said coal production
since April 1 has Increased on an aver
age of 855,800 'tons per week over last
year, giving a total Increase In that
period of 7,700,000,000 tons.
"Last year, with a smaller produc
tion, we accumulated sufficient stor
age to help tide us over the worst Win
ers' strike in history," he continued.
"Running ahead now of last year's pro
duction, I cannot believe the current
statements that we are running head
long into a dreadful shortage of coal."
That the Florence district has a
bumper grain crop this year was the
statement yesterday of Judge O. J.
Baughn of Florence. Judge Baughn
has been in Phoenix for the past two
days presiding in superior court for
Judge P.. C. Stanford.
"Six or seven combined threshers
have been shipped into the Florence
valley tins year." said Judge Baughn.
"but they have been insufficient to
care for the crop. The Florence dis
trict has about 5000 acres in ' Pima
cotton. There is about the same
amount in the Casa Grande district.
Rabbits have appeared in the heart
of the valley and are ravaging the
cotton."
That Florence is at present one of
the fastest growing towns in the south
west was declared by Judge Baughn
to be a fact apparent to anyone who
visits that town. A new hotel is about
to be built, a Masonic temple-and nu
merous fine residences. Improvements
in progress and in contemplation ag-
gtegate a million dollars. The laet j
.Uatement of the two Florence banks!
showed a total of more than j:, 000,(00
in resources. Sia-'e last December the
improvements in Florence have totaled
from l-C.O.OOO to $300,000. The new
elec tric light and water plant buiH h.st
October abi'-adv has been tounrt in
adequate. :l m.ist be- enlarge:! at j

Many Florence! and Casa Grande j
people are summering in Pinal county,
in the Catalina mountains. The state j
land department threw open a half
section at Orac'e in tracts of f rom j
half an acre to two acres. This was j
sold at auction recently and many)
Florence and Casa Grande people j
bought. They plan a community club- ';
house and ample water supply and a j
recreation field. Oracle is 4S00 feet hi ;
altitude. It isa fine summer resort . j
about ."2 miles from Florence. :
With the 10,000 or 12.000

acres will be irrigated
trict before long. In the Casa Grande ,
district there is a very large acreasre !
beina: developed by pumping, in addi- i
tion to the f."0) acres to be tinder the
diversion dam.
"The supreme need of the Casa :
Grande district; now is a big central
power station, and the reed is so acute ;
that unless some company gets busy ;
at once the chances are that a local",
corporation will be formed to build a
central power station to distribute
power all over the Casa Grande and
Santa Cruz valleys. With reasonably
cheap power that whole country can
be developed from Picacho to Mari-t-cpa
by pumping plants."
Judge Baugn is chairman of the San
Carlos association. This association,
he says, is very hopeful of the outlook
for the early building of the San
Carlos dam. "We have solicited
strong support and endorsement of
many organizations and branches of
the government, as well as "commti
nit.es that heretofore have been rather
lukewarm. The committee as a whole
fee's certain that in a few years the
San Carlos dam will be under construction."
