 OVERl,MENT-A. von Hoffman of Berlin, who is a sort of travelling representative of the German govern ment, is in Phoenix which he has included as one of his stopping off places in his itinerary of the world.

While in this country, as in other countries which he will visit he wants to see everything which has to do with modern pro- gress, and the dam is one of the most interesting. He will leave to- day on an automobile trip to Roose- welt where he will pass several days inspecting the works. From here he will go to the coast and sail to Japan and from there go to India On his return to Germany he will doubtless tell the Kaiser something about the big dam. out in Arizona.
