WHEN ARIZONA LED
 IN AMUSEMENT FIELD

The theatrical advertisements of the Los Angeles newspapers announce that The Battle of Przemysl is being shown at the Mason Opera House this week Excellent as that picture was. it is old and almost forgotten in Phoe- nix It was shown here six weeks ago and since then it has been seen in some moving picture house in every town in the southern part of the state.
 It is not often that Arizona leads southern California in the amusement line but the Phoenix Amusement com pany which was unusually wide awake saw the possibilities of popular inter est in that great picture of the Cor respondents Film company before the managers of Los Angeles had heard of it
 It is said to be filling the Mason Opera House but presumably none of the thousands of Arizonians who are contributing to the prosperity of Los Angeles will spend money to see what all of them have seen.

THE ALLIES VIEW
By Albert W. Bryce
. :, q @o@ 90 - g 90 . = y

1t is to be hoped that an exam
ination of the hull of the Amer
lean steamship Nebraskan viii
show that the vessel struck I
drifting mine. This is dubious
time for another Gulflight Incl
dent.
1t is difficult to believe that. il
view of the situation between the
United Safes and Germany since
the sinking of the Lustiania, the
German Government would have
authorized its submarine Com
manders to attack American
ships. 1t is equally difficult tc
believe that German Com.
mander would have made an at.
tack on his own responsibility.
Such action in such circum-
stances would be little less than
an act of war. No conciliatory
reply that the German Foreign
Office could make to President
Wilson's note would balance a
deliberate attack upon a ship fly
ing the American flag, at a
time when the two Governments
were endeavoring to arrive at a
friendly and honorable under
standing in respect to subma.
rine warfare.
1t is to the credit of the Amer.
lean people that there is no great
public excitement over the Ne.
braskan affair, and that there is
a general disposition to give Ger.
many the benefit of every doubt
until the essential facts can be
established. American restraint
however, does not mean Amer.
lean Indifference; for if it is
proved that the Nebraskan is a
victim of a German torpedo il
will be impossible to reconcile
that action with any expressed
desire from Berlin for a contiua-
ton of friendly relations with
the United States.
With the losing of fresh vol
umes of "uunutterable hate" Eu-
rope plunges deeper into its
blood mire. From Vienna, with
the aged Austrian Emperior's
cry of "Perfdy" come grim as
surances that the Italians who
have gone to war "are SO unut-
tcrable hated with the most pro-
founnd honesty, that this war
can be terrible" The Italian
Ambassador departs from Ber-
lin with the Kaiser's personal
message to Victor Emmanuel
voicing Germany's anger.

Mill Completely
Destroyed by Fire

Gainesville, June 4.-The
prosperous town OF Williston
was the scene of a disastrous fire
"Wednesday evening, when the
large sawmill of the Bowling
Crate and Lumber Company was
entirely consumed. The mill
had only recently been placed in
good operation. and the fire was
first discovered on the far side
of the mil from the boilers about
an hour after closing down for
the day. The Office, dry kiln,
commissary and lumber on the
yard were not damaged. Extent
of the loss could not be learned,
but the same is said to be COW
cred by insurance.
The owners will rebuild as
soon as the insurance can be ad-
jusuted.

FURNITURE MADE FROM
WILLOW TWIGS

arrow, austrian GdlCla, june
4.-Basket work with willow
twigs has been dignified with a
place in the science of fortication
and the art of "home-making in
the trenches" The Austrian
and German troops, who, for
eleven weeks, lay in trenches
along the west bank of the Dun
aajec river, facing the Russians
on the other side, were largely
"landstrum" men from the Tyrol,
Bohemia and Westphalia, and
nowhere in Europe has the Asso-
ciated Press correspondent seen
anything to equal or even ap-
proach in comfort and decorative
effect the winter homes which
these soldiers built along the
bank of the river.
The position which they took
did not at first view seem very
favorable for comfortable
trench-life, it being along a dyke
of clay in a low-lying river val
ley, but the willows which grew
in profussion nearby afforded
material to more than make good
all deficiencies. Trenches and
the dug-out shelters of the men
were first of all lined with bask-
et-work to prevent caving-in and
contact with the sticky clay.
!, Then the men seemed to have
WED with each other in making
new comforts from the slender
osiers. Nearly every shelter
hut had chairs and tables Of
basket-work. Many of them had
chimneys of willow encased in
clay. Summer houses of various
shapes and designs were built
back of the lines later, the most
common type being made of four
long boughs bent together in a
sort of tpee, with roof of bask-
et-work woven in. On the top
top of the dyke were the loop
holes from which the defenders
fired at the Russians on the
other bank. Each man had ex-
cavated for himself niche, man.
high, rooted and lined with os-
iers. fro mwhic hhe could attend
to the principal task of a soldier
in full comfort and security.
Sod was cut and brought from
distance and the outside of the
houses and the slope of the dyke
i, were carefully soded with the
loving care of good lawn artist.
With the coming of spring. gar
dens had everywhere been laid
out. each shelter-hut having at
least one, with a decorative bor-
der of stone or sod before the
door.
When the correspondent visit
ed the scene the basket-ware
homes were empty. Polish peas
ants were turning over the straw
in the beds, searching for money
or trinkets, which might have
been lost, or were carrying away
the doors. windows and furni-
lture. while the soldiers who had

THE GERMAN VIEW.
BY Hugo Won Kliest.


a nation of peace. In the past
it has zealously worked for
peace. The American people
have given strong expression to
their love of peace; all Ameri-
can churches have offered pray
ers for peace. And now that
peaceful nation, by huge sales of
war material, is not only pro-
tracing but also intensifying the
war. We hear from all sides
that American ammunitions is
better. that is to say, that it
causes us more losses than that
which our enemies previously
used, There are, no doubt, many
I impartial Americans who can
enter into the feelings of us
! Germans during sucuh painful
experiences. We are waging a
gigantic war against half the
world. We are fighting with the
highest concentration of all our
strength against an almost over
whelming superiority. In doing
so we do not ask anybody's help,
but neither do we expect to be
done injury by those from whom
we have a right to expect full
Neutrality. When, owing to
the American supplies, our loss
es increase, even more wives lose
their husbands. even more pa
rents their sons, bitter senti-
ments will arise inevitably, and
all affection for a country which
does us such harm cannot but
cease. There is a moral respon-
sibility and guilt apart from the
merely legal aspect. A Chris
tan people that has regard for
justice will not make light of
that moral responsibility before
both nations. and at the same
time, great benefit to all man
kind, will be deeply grieved to
see that the gulf stream between
the two is ever widening; and
that is. the fault of America
which openly aids our enemies.
We Germans feel keen disap-
pointment in that respect. At
the outbreak of the war we all
hoped that America, like a
friend, would understand and APP
preciate our position and action.
We thought that we were in no
closer touch with any great
country than we were with the
United States of America. We
thought so because of the many
material and intellectual interre-
lations which, in course of time,
had become ever stronger and
more fruitful in results. We al
SO thought SO because of the
numerous Germans who had set
tied in America for centuries, to
whom American civilization
owes so much, and who have
been good citizens, always brave
and loyal to the American cause.
Only think of what they have
done in the War of Indenpen-
dence! An understanding of
German characteristics and SYM
pathy for German aspirations
might we'll have been expected
outside the German colony if in
fluenced and taught by Ameri-
cans of German ancestry. Butu
cans of German ancestry. But
unfortunately we experienced
the contrary. In discussing the
present war, the majority OF
Americans-as far as one can
judge from nenwspapers-have
altogether accepted the distort-
ed picture which our enemies
have drawn of us. They behold
all events through the clouded
spectacles of our enemies. They
readily believe any misrepresent-
alton of facts and any SANDER
heaped upon us. All of a sud-
den we found ourselves separat-
ed from many old friends by a
worldwide chasm.

SUPPLY OF WAR
MUNITIONS CURTAILED
BY DISSATISFIED
WORKMEN

Glass, June 4.-Charges that
the supply of war munitions is
being held up by the attitude OF
workmen in the industrial dis
tricts are supported by the Glass
glow Herald. which has made an
extensive investigation of the
situation in the Glasgow district.
The newspapers investigators
reports that in their opinion the
whole issue of the war is being
Jeopardized by industrial ineffi-
cheney and by manipulation of
work of dissatisfied workmen.
The following example is given
One of the practices of piece
workers is to drag out an oper-
alton for which they are getting
what they think is too low a
price until it takes twice or thrice
as long as necessary. They ask
for higher price on the strength
OF this, and when they have got
the price up to the point they
consider sufficient they turn to
and get the work done in a frac-
ton of the previous time in order
to earn the money.
Such proceedings in ordinary
times are part of the standing
struggle between employers and
employed. But in war time the
result is more serious an devel-
ops into disloyalty to the state
and a danger to the community.
Nor is that all. These men
not only will not work them
selves but they will not allow
others to work. The restrictions
with regard to unskilled labor are
maintained in some of the shops
with undated rigidity, and the
effect is most seriously felt in
the ammunition factories where
the need of increased outputu is
most urgent"
In certain shops, it is alleged,
row after row of machines may
be seen idle, with men idle be-
side them willing to work, but
forbidden by the shop rules of
the engineering unions.
The Herald calls for the estab-
lishment of military discipline in
all establishments engaged on
war material. and it suggests
that the necessary authority to
handle the situation might with
propriety be put into the hands
of the local Armaments Commit
tees, which have been established
by public spirited citizens in
most of the industrial districts
in an effort to . accelerate the
work of providing supplies for
the front.
A constructive scheme which
has been drawn up in lasgow for
the elimination of the present
difficulties makes the following
proposals:
RATES of wages and standards
of remuneration to remain as
they are at present, and no
changes to be permitted until
further notice.
"The functions of trades un-
ions in regard to the enforcement
of trade rights to be suspended
during the war.
Local ornaments committees
to act in each district as courts
of appeal by workmen against
hardships caused by employers.
"No association of employers
to aact in any way wit hregard to
labor conditions.
Local ornaments committees
to have effective labor represen-
tation, with full power to fine
employers. to safeguard skilled
trades rights. to regulate the use
of unskilled labor, and to settle
the coalitions of remuneration.
"The Central Committee and
the local committees to be form

Eight-hour Law Puzzles

The army and navy officers who have
to do with the application of the eight
hour law still find themselves perplexed
with the provisions Of that measure at
every turn. One army engineer recently
suggested that in calls for bids here
after there be inserted something which
should be a guide to bidders as to the
operation of the law, such as announcing
that the law is construed to apply to all
field work and not to subcontracts for
the materials nor to the fabrication in
the shop where work under these con-
tracts forms but a small part Of the
work on the project.
The War Department does not approve
of this aid to bidders. It Is believed
that the government has gone as far as
it may reasonably be expected to go. The
opinions on the subject from the law OH
GERS are considered as being well known
to contractors. and bidders are furnished
with all possible information on the SUBJ
ject when they submit questions It is
believed that, until the effect of the law
upon the Industrial world is better un-
derstood by a longer period of applica-
ton. the Incorporation of explanations of
the law in the calls for bids should be
very restricted. II Incorporated at all I'll
is appreciated that contractors, on the

Research Shop a Dream

The Secretary of the Navy Is by no
means convinced Of the possibility OF
Congressional adoption Of the recon-
mendations made by the naval consult
ing board for the establishment and
maintenance Of a naval research and ex-
perimental laboratory. II Is not expect
ed the departmental estimates will con-
tain an item providing for such a plant
despite the assurance on the part OF
Thomas A. Edison, made while he was
recently in Washington. at the sessions
Of the consulting board. OF which he Is
chairman, that his personal influence
and that OF the gentlemen associated
with him on the board would be applied
at the Capitol in behalf OF the labora-
tory.
The fact that such an institution would
ultimately cost $4,000 and that its OPP
Grating cost is 100000 a year will prob
ably prove discpuraging to those who
are behind the project. II will probably
be pointed out that laboratory Of this
character, OF admitted usefulness. might
be developed under some OF the bureaus
of the Navy Department at much less
expense. although economy in that direc-
ton might measurably interfere with
the complete success OF its results.
The fact that the Aero Club OF Amer
lea, at its annual meeting in New York
the other night. Endorsed the project as
costing only 100000 with the oper-
ating expenses but" 100000 a year will
not add materially to the strength Of
the advocacy. There Is an impression
that the Navy Department should have
additional facilities for research and ex-
in matters relating to
