AT (METING
Dwight B. Heard Explains
Proposed Measure at the
Sunday Evening Club
otatc Engineer Argues
Against It
A debut on the highway commission
Mil featured the regular meetln of the
Satv1.y Kvenlna cluh nt nf p h.-jii
lt even In r. Dwlght It. Heard, one of
me rather of the proponed measures,
took the affirmative and Thomas Mad-
doc!t. state nitttie. r, nrfriid upon the
nectlv. Dr. A. M. Tuthlll and C. M.
Zander had previously discussed the
merits of the so-Ailed teachers' wane
M:i, rr. Tuthllr opposing the measure
end ilr. Zander supporting It.
After explaining the purposes of a
atate bljfhway commission, Mr. Heard
reviewed the efforts of Rood roads
workers In Arizona during the pant two
Tears to abolish the rresent system In
faror of practical, efficient, business
like administration of road funds In the
cMatmct!on of a continuing; state
hlchway system, without regard to
county lines or sectional prejudices.
lie told of the effort to secure legis
lative action In the Mil known as Bill
No. 17. at the legislature meeting In
11 J: how the virus Of partisan poli
tics had caused its natural death and
f a decision by the Arizona Good
Roada association, at Its 1920 conven
tion tn Tucson lart January, to-1 take
the i-ue to the people by means ot an
inlt:itlve measure.
Kxpl.matlon of the various sections
ef th till was then mads by the
speaker. He told of the- division of the
state into five districts and of the
provision for select Ins; on member of
commission from each of these
'..rvts.
Sowi This County Not Favored
"What Opposition has so far devel
;1 against this measure Is based on
hf pretext that Maricopa county Is
fryl-c to unlo.id It share ot road
hiithlins; on the other counties of the
ti!, Statistics show that Maricopa
county has issued good roads bonds
tot:.nr $1,000 no or nearly 80 per cent
t;e of the state put together. Marl-
-ora county Is doing; her full share In
b iiMlrt foc roads and she will con
iTine to do so," he said.
"We wish them atl veil, but It Is
t.:T to for ret county lines and build
ood roads where they will do the
tr.tot tnefit, for all the people of
th :ate."
The hichwsr commission, as pro
1-vm-1 In the hill, would be a continuing
w,ty. he explained, and would not
hnc with every change In admin
istration. This constant changing; in
i highway department, he said, was
,t'y and a poor method.
He then referred to the state map
and pointed out changes In the state
h'-gh ay systems during the past few
vr. Vnder the provisions of the
r ;!-, commission act. he declared.
fi permanent state system would be
within a i-ertod or one
could not thereafter be
established
year, and it
changed..
Salaries of the commissioners, as
provided In the bill, were limited to
$2,000 r year, the sneaker declared.
Knch commissioner Is to receive a
salary of $-0 per dav but his services
are limited to )f0 davs each year.
State Could Make Own Cement
Ono of the features erf the bill, he
declared, was the orovMKm which grave
the commission the right to manufac
ture cement and ota-r highway build
ing; muterl.t.1. Thcn materials could
be sold to counties and cities under
the provisions of the act.
Methods of raising funds for good
roads work were also discussed. He
explained the present svstem. under
which 75 per cent of the tax Is re
turned to the counties for work In
those districts and the proposed new
method, which would put the entire
amount under the surerv1lon of the
state highway department foe slate
purposes.
In conclusion, he gave the views of
many well known good roads experts
on the proposal Arlaona Highway
Commission bilk These experts un
qualifiedly endorsed the measure as
one of the brt of its kind they had
ever seen.
State Engineer Maddock followed
and. In opening, declared that he" was
speaking In hls own behalf; that he
was alone responsible for any Utter
ances made at the meeting;.
Kramers of the highway commission
bill were good roads boosters rather
than builders. he declared, and he re
ferred to "the idea ot lavraen attempt
ing to direct a good roads program.
Maddock Opposes Bill
He then referred to the Colorado
highway commission act. on which the
Arizona bill is based, and read from a
newspaper which stated that a move
was on foot in Colorado to "abolish the
present 'costly method and modernize
the road svstem of the state." He also
referred to the California act.
The Thoenix and BIshee chapters of
the American Association of Engineers
have gone on record in opposition
against this measure, he said.
Mr. Maddock said that he was on
posed to the proposal because he was
against all commissions in executive
capacitv and because he did not be
lieve a lay commission was competent
to handle engineering questions.
Acts of the Maricopa county high
way commission were then referred to
bv Mr. Mtiddock as an example of
what might be expected if Vie pro
posed bill carried. He also attacked
the measure on the ground of consti
tutionality, while In rebuttal Mr.
Heard explained the measure had been
drafted with the greatest care by At
torney Walter Bennett.

GEORGIA TECH RULED OUT
PITTSBURG, Pa-, Oct. 24 Charles
S. Miller, director of athletics of the
University of Pittsburg, tonight gave
out a statement that no future football
games with Georgia Tech would be
scheduled. He explained this decision
does not constitute severance of ath
letic relations with that institution as
the contract between both colleges ex
pired Saturday. Ho added, however.
the decision was actuated by what ho
construed as a violation of contract
provisions by the Georgia team Satur
day in insisting upon permitting threo
men who had played more than four
years to take part in the game, and
also because the usual eligibility rules
adhered to by all first class colleges
are not observed by Georgia Tech.

BITTER GRIDIRON CONTEST
CHICAGO. Oct. 24 Fiht for th
football championship of the western
conference apparently is developing
into another of the bitterly fought
races frequently decided by the last
games. With the season well under
way, three undefeated teams are tied
for the lead, but so many contests have
been decided by small margins and
lucky breaks that football followers
have found it impossible to pick less
than three elevens as champion favor
ite while tn many cases four or more
are given a chance.
SPANIARDS AND MOORS CLASH
LONDON. Oct. 24. An undated dis
patch received by the London Times
reports a twelve-hour battle between
Spaniards and Moors In Morocco, la"
which Spaniards lost 22 men killed and
105 wounded, the malority of these bi
ing native troops. The Moors are Baid
to have suffered severe losses.

THANKS
ASSURED BY DEALER
FOR
s
Phoenix housewives need entertain
no fear as to the source of their
Thanksgiving turkeys. The valley's
19i'0 turkey crop, while smaller than
ordinary, will be sufficient for local
needs, poultrymen of the city de
clared Saturday. Of course, the price
is on all important factor and here,
again, the housewives will have occa
sion to smile. iYesent market condi
tions point to prices from five to six
cents a Opund cheaper than last year.
Texas growers are governing the
turkey market this year, dealers said.
There has been some Inclination on
the part ot Individual producers to
put their crops on the retail market
now, weeks in advance of the Thanks
giving rush. Concerted action, how
ever, forced these men to hold their
stock until later. By flooding the mar
ket now.- it was pointed out, prices
would soar to unknown heights at
Thanksgiving time. A scarcity would
be inevitable, they said, with a result
that the Thanksgiving demand would
far exceed the suddIy.
The nation's turkey croo this year
Is smaller than for the past few years,
hut this shortage will not be materially
reflected in prices. Turkeys on foot.
meaning live weight, wtll probably be
about 35 cents a pound at Thanksgiv
ing time. Dressed turkeys will prob
ably retail at 45 cents the pound. 4
cents at tho outside, it was declared.
These prices represent a reduction of
10 or 12 per cent as compared with
last year. Thanksgiving turkevs in
1919 ranged in prices from 00 to 54
cents the pound, dressed weight.
Many Phoenix residents have culti
vated the idea of buying their Thanks
giving turkeys early In the season at
live weight and fattening them for the
"big" meal." The method is being
quite extensively employed this year,
pouitrvmen said.
