election contest has been dragging it's way through the courts.
 Eddie Doyle, according to his state ment yesterday, has a little moro than S15,00 in his possession as stake holder which he will distribute to the winners as soon as the final mandate of the court has been obeyed and George w. r. Hunt has taken the of- flee of governor of Arizona. Some of the previous estimates of the amount of money that Doyle held on the election have been as high as $35,000.
 Boyce and Creech also have a large amount of election money to distribute but not so much as Doyle. There are several other shareholders who have delayed payment of election bets in their possession until the election con- test had finally been determined. AL together, there probably is about s25,000 or $30,000 thus held in Phoenix and which will make splendid Christi mas presents for the fortunate ones.

M ARTHUR SAYS AUTOMOBILE |S
 WAR NECESSITY

Charles H. McArthur, of McArthur Brothers, declares, that the automo- bile business will have an important bearing upon our success in this war. MT. McArthur today gave his views in detail concerning the use of motor cars, as we'll as to, the significance of the widely rumored statements that are prevalent to the effect that the manufacture of motor vehicles is to be discontinued.
 Motor Cars Necessity
 Not only does the government need motor cars to carry on the war ef- fectively, but the motor car is one of our most important commercial factors today" said MT. McArthm. Tt is important too, that our business in the country be carried on as eco- nomically as possible, and to do this the motor vehicle instead of being less in evidence, will play a far greater part than ever before in the past" continued MT. McArthur.
 MT. McArthur is one of Arizona's important figures in the automobile

business and is a man who is capable of speaking intelligently and authori- tatively on the motor car industry. When informed that rumors were abroad that the automobile would be less in evidence during the war, and that people were beginning to look upon them as luXuries; MT. McArthur vigorously flayed this idea and placed himself on record in. the following words:
 No Government Interference
 "So far as can be ascertained at the present time there will be no gov ernment interference with the manu- facture of motor cars. The govern ment recognizes more than ever be- fore that the term pleasure car is hardly applicable to the automobile and that the demand for greater eff ciency in every thing we do calls strongly for quicker stransportation. Another thing, the motor car industry is the second largest in the United States and has such a bearing on tho lives and support of millions of people who cpal3 Sos ..+y!sa tAet, cpegsnhzs5 ! abilities in other industries that un- less the manufacture and sale of hn- tomobiles is maintained at as nearly a normal condition as possible it would have an enormous effect that would be destructive when we need eonstructiveness more than any other thing to win this great war. The government needs motor cars and the efficiency of automobile manufactur- CTS must be maintained by continued volume in production or we will find our government paying extremely higher prices for their transportation units. The present low prices of motor units is only possible from the fact that domestic consumption is so | great and we must endeaVor to main- | tain this condition. When shortage of materials used in automobiles is 1 felt by our armies in the field, we must of course, expect that automo- bile production will be curtailed, but at present the motor car requires less | than , per cent of our national pro- duction and this percentage is hardly a factor.
 Great Time Saver
 "The motor car has unquestionably done more than any other transpor- tation utility to speed up this nation and we must see to it that it contin- ues to play it's tremendously import ant part in carrying this terrible war to a conclusion.
 Here in Arizona where we must rely on other things besides steam and electricity to save time. we need the motor car truck to a much great CT extent than in any other section of the United States and to stop or

 TREE IN PLACE

With the tree around which the fes- tivities will center already in position in the lobby of the Adams hotel, and with donations beginning to come in for the relief of the needy, the Saliva tion Army's Christmas celebration is entering upon the last lap of the cam paign.
 The tree a monarch of the northern forests, arrived in Phoenix yesterday morning, and Mayor Corpstein. who annually pays the transportation charges and the expense of having the tree set up, was out bright and early with force of men to see that no time was lost in getting the tree into posi- tion in the Adams lobby. Tomorrow a crew from the Pacific Gas and Electric company will string the tree with col 0fed lights so that it may blaze forth a cheery Christmas greeting to the need' folk who will gather around it in th afternoon for the distributing of th Christmas baskets.

Questionnaires were mailed by the Maricopa local exemption board to draft registrants whose numbers are from PASS to 2,717, inclusive. The board advises that the questionnaires be taken before the advisory board which meets every day in the court house before they are answered by the registrant After this operation is ef- fected, no time should be lost in mail ing them back to the board.
 Members of the board yesterday wished it announced that enlistment mat still be made in various branches of the service, providing the registrant is not included in any part of a contin- gent scheduled to go to the canton ment. This may be accomplished by getting written permit from the board, which must be shown the re- cruiting officer.

The Monroe school, being the largest, led all the others by a wide margin, with the Adams school second. The Fillmore Mckinley, Garfield and Capitol school also came in for very favorable mention.
 In order that late Christmas shop pers may not lose an opportunity to share in the good that comes from giv- ing, the Salvation Army kettles will be kept on the streets tomorrow, and up to Christmas eve every little bit con- tributed to keep the pot boiling will help just that much toward keeping a real Christmas pot boiling on the next day.

 GUARDS WANTED

Fifteen hundred men are wanted at once to become members of the United States Guards for the protection of public utilities, according to an an- nouncement which has been made by Sergeant Joseph Hannah, in charge of recruiting, who may be found at First avenue and Adams street. Enlistments are for the period of emergency only, and married men are acceptable. No men within the draft age will be ac- cepted for this service. Men who have had previous service, such as in the Spanish American war, in the Philip pines, the boxer campaign, or other active duty are especially desired. So far as is practicable men will be as- signed to duty in the vicinity of their homes.

 IDEAL PRESENT
 FUR CHRISTMAS

There are several people who are go- ing to receive real sure enOua gifts this Christmas, says William Conrad Mills of McArthur Brothers and one of the presents is a Packard Twin Six which is at present laying in McArthur Brothers sales room, awaiting Christ mas morning delivery to a very fortu- nate, but unsuspecting recipient
 Reports from McArthur Brothers Tucson branch state that four Pack ards are destined for Christmas gifts in Tucson, while Douglas also reports good business in motor cars for. Christ mas which clearly shows that many people are concentrating on one worth while gift instead of many small ones.
 Tt would be hard to imagine a gift that would bring more joy both on presentation and for many years to come, than a motor car and with such cars as Dodge Brothers, Nash and Packards to choose from" continued Mir. Mills who says McArthur Brothers is the logical Santa Claus shopping place.

 MT. Hoover does not intend to eat less but he does insist that we eat without waste. The same conserva tion is needed for our energy and our time. The automobiles greatest func tion is to save time and energy and we must encourage it's use more than ever before.

IF SPECIALISTS IN AUTO
 BUSINESS ARRIVES SAYS DEALER

During the past year, or year and half. the automobile repair business like many other businesses in the United States has advanced from q general category to a standard in which specialists are demanded in each branch of work, according to E. R. SchweitZer, general manager of the SchweitZer Machine company of Phoenix and Tucson. The all-round mechanic, man who can tamper with lighting systems. batteries. engines, gears. and the whole machine, is no longer in great demand. The specialist in either or any of these branches is largely in demand.
 During the next few years. says Alr Schweitzer, this advance is to be much more marked. In time, he predicts. an automobile owner will take his car to a specialist for every trouble. It lights are not working good he will go to a man who has been especially trained in the lighting system of his special ma chine. If engine is missing he will seek an expert mechanic on his type engine. If his batteries are weak or buckled. he will not take his car to some general repair shop-instead he will hunt up a specialist in batteries.
 There are few, if any, men in this country" declared MT Schweitzer." who know every department of the auto mobile repair shop. There are also a few men who are expert automobile electricians and battery workers. l be- lieve that there are a few real cleo tricians in the automobile business than are really demanded for the general trade"
 The aim of the Schweitzer Machine company, declares the manager, is to meet this demand for specialists in two branches of the automobile repair industry. The best men in the south- west in these two lines have been em- ployed by the company, and in both their Phoenix and Tucson shops the
