FEDERAL COUNT MUST se
 TAKEN IN ARIZONA

PHoENIN. May Federal en. rollnent will be necessary under the provisions of the draft act de spite the fact that a military census was recently completed al the al. rection of Governor Campbell. No lice to this effect was received at the state house yesterday from Sec retary of War Baker in response to inquiries.
 When the matter Of fedora, enroll. ment was first brought up 1t wss thought that the military census re gently completed would serve that purpose in Arizona. Under the pro visions of the military code of the state. 1t is within the power Of the governor to order the enrolment of the assessors of ,be respective coun- ties
 This work has only recently been completed in the various counties It was thought that if this censns could serve the purpose of federal enroll mrut the government would be saved the entire expense Of doing this work in this state. as the work had pre- viously been completed under state supervision and at state expense
 In an effort to determine the stat us of the federal enrolment, Adju- tsnt General Charles Harris recent. ly communicated with Congressman Carl Hayden at Washington Three copies Of the state enrolment blanks. together with three copies of the state military code, were forwarded to Congressman Hayden at Wash ington. The Arizona representa- tive then laced these documents be fore Secretary of War Baker in or der that il might be determined whether or not the census could serve the purpose of federal carroll. ment
 After careful investigation 1t was determined that inasmuch az con siderable data necessary under the federal enrolment was not included in the state census. it would be necS essary to carry on the work here as in other states
 This ruling practically obvisted the work by various assessors and deputies In addition. it incurs a great expense to the state without any appreciable returns.
 Plans are now being devised whereby the total expense of this census can be wiped out IL is ar gued by many that by means of this military census the names of hun dreds of persons have been secured who have previously evaded paving poll taxes and a movement is now on foot for the assessors in each county to check their respective lists for the purpose of collecting ali delinquent taxes. By this method It Is thought. a sufficient amount could be secured to more than pay for the cost of the census.

gains on the west front do not
seem as great as the results
melted for the British in the
Byng drive, nevertheless they
have been formidable. What is
the explanation? Have enough
troops been released from the
Russian line to give this impet-
us to the campaign against the
Italians, French and English? ?
Does Germany need victories so
badly. to sustain the morale at
home that they must be had at
any cost; or is it the German
strategy to go as hard as pos
sible now in a hope of winning
the war or at least of conclud-
ing a favorable peace before
the full strength of America
can be brought into play?
Whatever the answer may be it
is a fact that the Huns have
done some good work for
themselves of late. They have
been able to make gains and
they still fight almost entirely
on their enemy's soil. In other
words Germany is as yet un-
whipped. That she is going to
be defeated there can be no
doubt. But it is going to take
the United States to do it. The
war as it stands today is a stall
mate and the safety of world
democracy and the future
peace of the world calls for a
decisive allied victory. AS to
lust how much of a task the
Americans have on hand we
may know more when the out
come of present fighting on the
west front and in Italy is fully
determined.

Grant, near Chicago,
showed 81 out of every 100
men favorable to a policy of
compulsory military training in

proof that the men in our train

to those testing the sentiment
at Camp Grant was Il would
not be without this training for
anything in the world" The
men from all the camps, Off

invariably appear hardened

ing and within the past ten years
have increased to some of the rail-
roads operating in this state substan-
TALLY 500 per cent. All of these in
creases are going on without the rail-
roads being able to increase the SELL
ing price of the transportation which
is the commodity they SELL Their
freight rates generally have been
forced downward.
"If manufacturer were continu-
ally enlarging his plant and handling
more goods, rendering more and bet
ter service to his customers, and yet
at the end of ten years found that,
for the entire period, he was making
no more than he made before he be-
gan to increase his plant and service,
he would automatically have to raise
his prices or else put no more capital
into his business. This is what has
been happening to the railroads, and
while recently there has been an in
crease in gross revenues, that in
crease has been and is continuing to
be offset by the higher cost of run
ming the business. Needed improve
ments and betterments cannot be
made unless investors will buy stocks
and bonds. Stocks and bonds cannot
be sold unless a fair return can be
obtained on the investment. The rail-
roads are therefore unable under the
present conditions not only to meet
the greatly increasing expenditures,
but also they are unable to raise new
capital to improve the present proper
ties and make extensions thereof.
Something must be done to relieve
the situation. Under present laws
the only relief that can be had must
be through the commissions which
regulate the rates. In presenting
their petitions for the Is per cent in
crease in freight rates, the carriers
are not seeking for additlnoal profits.
They are but trying to meet the needs
of the times. American freight rates
are the lowest in the world and the
service is the best"
