The proposal that the Federal gov
ernment take over the complete regu-
lation of transportation, supplanting
the state railway and service COM
mission has been recommended and
may pass.
For Preparedness.
The Progressive platform makes
preparedness and Americanism the
keynote of the party policy. The
platform dickers for standing
army of a quarter of million men;
a navy second in world strength; a
nationalized system of citizen mill
tary training which the Federal gov
ernment would control; declares for
peace but a sufficient establishment
of defense to secure Americans of
rights on land and sea; for industrial
efficiency passing around prosperity
and social justice. The regulation OF
industry and a non-partisan tariff
commission has been declared essen
tial to mobilize production for Eur
ope after the war.

On the hill overlooking the Verde valley, affording unrestricted view of the mountains far beyond, J. s. Douglas has built his home.
 In the very heart of the rugged beauty of Jerome, the mine owner has erected the most distinctive residence in the state. Constructed of Mexi- can adobe 1t is somewhat like in type to the house of the Pueblo Indian, as 1t is also like in location.
 The hill was ieveled for the build ing. but the graceful slope remains and will soon be covered with flower ing plants and vines. The hillside is surrounded by a stone wall with gates at either end and the intention is to have this, too, a mass of clinging vines. It is beautiful and unique, and it's dignfied simplicity is impressive.
 It is said to be the largest modern adobe home in the country, and MT. Douglas takes particular pride in the fact that all materials used in con- struction were purchased in the state where he has made his vast fortune. The adobes, and there are 80,000 of them, were made right on the ground and are SKIS, the size of four ordin- ary brick. The exterior is plastered and tinted a delicate cream color. The interior also runs to the sof. tones. the walls being tinted tan that blends beautifully with the wood , work, old ivory in cclOr. The floors throughout are of grey cement
 The house, the plans of which were drawn by Lescher and Kibbey, of Phoenix, Is most attractive in it's ar engagement. The main entrance is through q small vestibule leading di- rectly into the living room. It is a large room 40x30 feet. and one of its features is a wonderful fire place. fully four feet in height and six feet in width. The mantel. in keeping with the plain simplicity effected, is entirely paneled wood face. French windows on the north. east and south not only lend T charm in the artistic sense, but makes 1t possible to throw the room open: for il is seldom too cold in Jerome to enjoy this advan- tage. The dining room faces the south and is most pleasing in lines. due to the three cascd openings that lead on to the corridors and to the lOggia beyond. A large buffet is the only piece of built in furniture in the room From the loggia opposite and leading from the living room. is a library. whence a splendid sweep of the valley is dis cernihle There are three bed rooms with three bath rooms on the ground floor. and also q small room. which in emergency can be used for q bed room. There Is a world of closet room. and the small details have been worked out with a nicety that leaves nothing to be desired in the way of comfort and convenience. Built-in

 Switching and tramming is done with Jeffrey 10-ton electric locomo- tives previously mentioned. all equip ped with air brakes and air cylinders for dumping All outside haulage of material and supplies Is done with motor trucks, of which there are three Macks. of 2, 3 and 5-tons and one Gramm of 3-tons capacity
 The buildings first constructed in cluded warehouse s3-foot square, machine shop and part of the power plant
 Foundations for the various build ings were constructed entirely of concrete the aggregates used in the Milwaukee mixers being cement Of Southwestern manufacture. and gravel washed from the bed of the Verde river. Tn plant especially constructed for that purpose. Steel for all frame work was fabricated bv the Kansas City Structural Steel Company. Brick was made on the ground with the. well known Brewer moldng machine. Erection was greatly facilitated by the use 1f 2 Brown Hoisting Machinery company's locomotive crane.
 Water for the high pressure sys- tenn, including all water for domestic use and fire protection service. is brought from Haskell springs. lying about four miles above the shelter site. which have daily average flow of approximately 5,200.o00 gallons.
 "This water Is carried in S-inch 'Armco" pipe to a 800, 0,000- gallon reservoir and on through the town of Clarkdaic where taps take off the quantity needed there. A 6-inch pipe continues on to l00, ,000- gallon Pa cific redwood tank at the extreme porthcast corner of the shelter site where the pressure head exceeds 200 feet Thence the various parts of the smeltor are served through an S-inch lap welded pipe, reducers of the same material conecting the several lines.
 Al of the plans for this vast un- dertaking were worked out as n whole, by Manager Win l.. Clark with the constant aid of his assistants and the most competent consulting en- gneers to be secured. The designs of the new shelter were drawn by Repath 6 McGregor. All details. however. were first submitted to Senator Clark, whom his associates credit with many valuable suggestions and changes.
 From an economic standpoint the new operations inaugurated at Clark dale have great importance: for be- 1 sides handling the output of the United Verde mine, and later of the Copper Giant and Blackberry mines under the same interests. a large quantity of custom ore will be treat

First Aid Training
 For the Employees
 Of the United Verde

There are 300 men on the mine roll of the United Verde copper mine.
 Practically everyone of the 800 has had first aid training. Long before it was demanded by law, the big copper mine installed safety apparatus such as is used in the best practice of modern mining. It was the first mine in the state to De equipped with the Draeger pulmotor for resussitation from the effects of gas, and it has been used T score of times.
 Head of the safety first depart ment is Ray J. Miller, and he has a staff of twenty-four trained helmet men.
 There is telephone on every level and a remarkably clever system of bell and flash signals and warnings by trammers for getting the miners away from the danger zones.

The circular starts out by saying
that Walter Fisher, atty represent

ton Counsel Ettelson are trying to
hand property which really belongs
to the people over to the telephone
interests.
Twice the members of the city

The delegates did more than pass a
resolution. They ordered handbills
condemning the aldermen distributed
in their wards before election. Off
GERS of the league were instructed to
give the opponents of those aldermen
what information they had which
might be used against them in the
campaign.
And the delegates didn't stop at
condemning the wrong aldermen.
They included, in the same resolu-
ton, a boost for the aldermen who
had voted against the steal and as
sured them of their support.

from the Painters, told something he
