A three days stay for it at that home of the movies is scheduled. "Womanhood" is rare combination. 4 nine-reel love story, rich in pathos and touches of the human interest that has had few equals in the history of the mute drama and yet so spectacular as to rank with the great "Intolerance' and kindred displays. It's human interest story, which concerns the love of an American girl, for a real American man, is surrounded with a graphic and intense spectacle of America humbled in the dust before the relentless power of great military nation and then the

MEMORIAL DAY WILL bE MADE
 NOTABLE IN PHOENIX BY GREAT
 PARADE AND STRONG PROGRAM

Time was when they walked with all the spryness of yOuth-an invita- tion to ride would have been regarded as an insult-but when civil war vet erans make the trip from the Eiks theater to the city hall plaza this morning in the Memorial day parade, they will ride in automobiles.
 Age has made it's inroad into the lives of these veterans. It has taken from them their youth, their spryness of step and their quickneSS of action, but it has not robbed them of pa triotism. Many of these veterans have already expressed themselves as will ing and anxious to join the cOlOrs in the great European struggle but, of course, will be prevented from so doing because of their advanced age.
 Phoenix will today pay it's cuSto mary annual tribute to the heroes Of former wars but to hundreds of mothers, fathers, brothers and sis ters this day will have a more sombre meaning than those of former years for who knows what the future will bring.
 For that reason, today's Memorial exercises will have a greater mean ing, probably, than ever before Young men will be there en masse to paS- respects to the men. living and dead, who fought for old Glory" Many of these men will soon be called to take up the work where these vet erans left off, to continue the pro- tectiOn of these United States and to fight for the preservation of a world democracy, And many of these young men will be called away not to come back when the war is over. Memorial exercises, indeed. will be those cele- brated at the city hall plaza today.
 In commemorating the memory of these veterans, all Phoenix will unite. Practically every business firm in the city will be closed for the day, others closing during the afternoon hours. All public institutions, as well as banking houses, courts. municipal ana state offices will be closed.
 The program that has been arrang- ed under. the direction of the Spanish

coincidence in connection with the screen version of Broadway Jones, George M. Cohan's initial photoplay at the Lanara theater. is the fact that it's director, Joe Kaufman was formerly associated with the star in his theat- rical activities.
 Mr. Kaufman's success as a direc- tor of motion pictures has established him among the foremost producers of high class screen plays in the country Prior to his motion picture work he was affiliated with George M. Conan in connection with various stage sue cesses which resulted in his gaining a more intimate knowledge of the fam ous stars talents than probably any other present screen director. This, together with the fact that Director Kaufman has attained enviable sue cess in handling the initial screen eff forts of stage favorites. ideally fits him for the production of Broadway Jones' presenting George Nj. Conan as a motion picture star, it will be shown today and Thursday and ranks as one of the best pictures of the last year.

vein of high grade ore which runs en- tirely across the property.
 Judge W. H. Bond, of Kansas City, one of the stockholders, was one of the most interested of those present at the meeting last evening. For many years Judge Bond was United States Com missioner at Leavenworth, Kansas, and also held various county offices. More recently he has been living in Kansas
 City where he is one of the most re- spected citizens. He had just returned from the property and brought with him the richest samples of the ore yet taken from either mine. He told Of the recent development work in the winze in Mine No. ? and said that this ore was even richer than any discov cred in Mine No. l.
 Five tons of the average run of ore
 has been shipped to the Rare Metals company laboratory at Tucson for a test run in order to determine the prac- tica bility of producing sodium vanadate
 and of even going further and produc- ing ferro- -vanadium, the commercial product. The outcome of this test is awaited with profound interest by the stockholders who have practically de- cided that the company will handle it's own ore through the processes of con- [ centration down to that of the produc- ton of the actual commercial Vana- dium.

MILL PROBLEM
 |S NOVV SOLVED

More than 30 stockholders of the United States Nanadium DeVeiopme,' company meeting last evening m the office of the president Dr. E. Payne
 Palmer. learned for the first time that the problem of a mill to be erected upon the property has been deflnlteiV
 determined upon and that the contract for it's construction will be awarded just as soon as an indemnity bond is ! secured protecting the company rom action for the employment of certain
 patents Assurance that this bond will
 be forthcoming within few days was given and it now appears that it will be the matter of but a short time before i the work of erecting the mill will actu-
 ally begin.
 i In this connection it is likely that a i fffty-ton mill will be erected first this to be constructed on the unit plan and making provisions for addition~ of i fifty ton units as the needs require. 1 Another interesting feature of the meeting developed when the question
 of placing some of the stock of the i stockholders upon the curb was brought ] up. None of the stockholders signified any intention of offering their stock for ] sale at any price and the uselessness Of curbing the stock was at once apparent. Instead of any stock being offered for
 sale last night there was inquiry from ; among the stockholders as to where more stock could be secured.
 i The directors reported that the work of development on Mine No. 1 has prac
 ticallv ceased and that this same class
 of work will probably be brought to an end shortly in Mine No. ?. In the case i of Mine No. 1, the entire force is now
 engaged in bringing out ore, explora- l ton work having gone far enough to
 6At"r'nina that an almost unlimited
 supply of high grade ore is at hand
 from now on the force will devote its
 attention to providing good supply ot
 ore in anticipation of the erection of the | mill.
 In Mine No. 2, it was reported force l of men is now ross-cutting a winze recently sunk. This winze went down 1 50 feet, all the way in rich ore. There ,is now oss-cutting of the 500-foot

 WAGE MEASURE
 IN PROTESTING

That circulars of the referendum pe- titions directed against House Bill No. 8. known as the minimum wage bill for i women, are securing signatures by misrepresentation of facts is the be- ] lief of Secretary of State Sidney F. Osborn, founded. he alleges, on infor- nation reaching his office from per sons claiming to have signed the peti- | tions.
 l It has been rumored for the past | several days that referendum petitions against the minimum wage bill for i women were in circulation but insofar as the secretary of state is concerned he has had no official confirmation of i the report He based his statement yesterday entirely on hearsay evidence which has reached his office both di- ! rectly and indirectly.
 l In a statement late yesterday after noon, MT. Osborn announced that he had received more than four score of
 telephone calls within the past four days from persons who claimed to have signed the petitions. In every in | stance he stated, these persons asked | that their names be withdrawn from 1 the petitions. They signed them, they ! said, because the circulator had mis- represented the facts.
 ! Inasmuch as none of these petitions 1 have yet been filed with the secretary of state, he directed his informers to
 make affdavits to the effect that they | had signed the petitions only after | misrepresentations by the circulators- | The minimum wage bill, introduced l by Representative Rosa Mckay at the l last session of the legislature, provides a minimum wage for women of Sl0 per I week Since it's passage, it is stated, ! efforts have been under way to pre- vent it becoming a law at the eXpira
 tiOn of the 90-day limit.
 l According to information secured by l Secretary of State Osborn. the circu- lators of the referendum petitions are
 exerting every effort to secure the necessary number of signatures to stay the effectiveness of the act. The
 misrepresentation, it is alleged, is to ] the effect that the present bill is un- favorable to the feminine sex and that 1 if it is defeated, more favorabIe
 measure will be adopted at the next | session
