DRAF I BLANKS SLOW COMING
 DELAYING ALL
Aliens Who Wish to Take Part in War by Enlist
 ing for Service May Do
 So, Wires the Governor

The local draft boards will require i76 different kinds of blanks in order to do business, according to federal rules and regulations. Colonel F. s. Breen, disbursing officer for Arizona, was busy yesterday sending out supplies of these blanks to the local boards throughout the state.
 Some of the boards will begin with their examination of those drafted for military service this week. These eX- amnations will be principally to de- termine physical condition of men draftedand dependency, if any, of rel atives.
 Local boards throughout the state have been besieged by men wishing to be transferred to other places, usually their home towns or counties. Many registered in Arizona places who be- long to other states Colonel Breen said yesterday he has received several telegraphic requests from local boards for the necessary transfer blanks. All these blanks, Colonel Breen said, are being forwarded as rapidly as possi- ble, considering the slow arrival of supplies from Washington.
 Regarding the military service of aliens, overnor Campbell last night sent the following message to tEe fourteen
 
 Reports reaching this office re- gently indicate that in some quarters the belief prevails that friendly aliens who have not declared their intentions to become citizens, but who are ready and willing to serve, are disqualified from entering military service of the United States and therefore they must take out first papers before they can le accepted.
 "It is regretted that such a misun- derstanding has arisen. The qualifi cations for voluntary enlistment in time of war are not more restricted for service in the new national army than for the regular army. Such alien non- declarants are virtually volunteers. The selective service draft provided for their registration but it did not re- gard them as being under any liability to serve and it therefore gave them full liberty to claim exemption when called by local boards. Now that in- formation reveals their willingness in large number to decline this exemption and to accept service in this war

 Tomorrow only, Harry Carey. Ella Hall and Hellcn Ware may be seen in Secret Love" is notable film because it is many sided in it's char acter phrasing. The fight is only one element: there is the charm of sym pathy, the delight of two love stories and the pathos of natural frailties which takes one poor girl to suicide that she. may right her conscience insofar as her earthly act may do. Then there is The Lass" played so well by Miss Hellen Ware. and the pretty love story that carries the mine working daughter of. the mine worker to the fruition of her love for q man who is a man-for all that he is much above her in education and refinement. Plenty of in terest for all degrees of film fan dom' is promised in the unfolding of Secret Love-

Reserves armed with S0-30 Winchesters augmented the force of officers already on the scene and a systematic search was inaugurated.
 Back of the Smith house there is considerable heavy growth of cane and sage brush. There are also several roads leading away in various direc- tions. Practically every inch of ground within several blocks of the house was gone over and then the machines start ed out on a man hunt that lasted over an hour. Every country road for two or three miles was traversed. Every street was gone over and every per son seen was questioned Even then not the slightest clue as to the identity or whereabouts of the man was se- cured.
 MT. Smith, who has been a member of the mail carrying force of the Phoe- nix pOStOffice for several years, said that night before last he believed an attempt was made to enter his house, but that the would-be burglar had become frightened and went away Last evening, despite the fact that families were seated upon the lawns about their homes, an effort was made to enter the NeWhard residence next door to the home of the Smiths. A rear screen was found to have been cut but the burglar evidently did not gain en- trance
 An investigation of the Smith affair revealed the fact that nothing was missing. Dresser drawers had been pulled out; some of them taken out and placed upon the floor or upon trunks in the room. A box containing Mrs. Smiths jewelry was overlooked Mrs. Smith is of the opinion that the burglar failed to notice her sitting upon the front lawn and thought the family was away. She evidently in terrupted him just as he was about to make his haul

Molokans held full sway, literally speaking. opposite the federal build ing yesterday morning as they waited for the opening of the federal court, when the arraignmentS of the B who refused to register were scheduled to take place. Detraining at Five Points they marched in a sWaying, swinging line down Van Buren to the federal building and there entertained a large crowd by their strange religious ideas, eXemplfied alternately by jumping and bowling. Their presentation was very like that of the Something can" en- tertains at Eatonswill in the Picllwick Papers who, it will be recalled, did everything in the line of physical dex- terity save dance and everything with the voice save sing. They may have thought they were dancing and singing but the crowd did not coincide.
 There were some A slackers, in cluding the MolOkans ready for ar raignment. One of the Molokans was too ill to come. The others, not Molo- kans, are MeXicans and simplified mat ters by pleading guilty to the charge of failure to register. Those thus pleading are Carlos Acuma, Adolfo Demarbill, Rafael Duarte, whose case will be settled at Prescott; Francisco Flores, Frank Sellardo, Alfredo Moreno MorolIoquy, first name unknown: Pete Moreno, John and Jesus Rios, Marnee Soto and Isador Torres.
 The Molokans refused to have an at torney, either at their own expense or a publicly appointed one. They pleaded not guilty and will go to trial, com mencing this morning at 9:30 o'clock
 None of their women were allowed to come up to the court room Instead, the women gathered in the court room in the rear of the building and started off by screaming and shouting in manner which would have caused any court to quail and if generally fol- lowed as custom by the Russian army cannot fail to bring ultimate victory over the Germans. It was not long tolerated, for United States Marshal Joe Dillon sent down leader from the flock with the direction that the lambs had better ''cut it out" or they would be in jail for contempt. They "cut it out"
 The Molokans did not seem to un- derstand what was going forward. in fact, clearness of mental vision does rot seem to be strong point with the sect. The hearings did not last long and 1t is not anticipated that the trials will take up much time for no defense is expected, that is, no legal defense and all which must be done by Federal Attorney Flynn is to establish the fact that each defendant of regis tration age failed to comply with the draft law.

BURGLAR GRIPS WOMAN $ THROAT TO STOP CRIES
Bold Robber Rolled When Attempts to Rob Home of MT. and Mrs. T. M. Smith
 in Early Evening Hours

Entering her home at 1912 West Monroe street after having been seated upon the lawn until about 9 o'clock last evening, Mrs. Tom M. Smith "sensed' the presence of an intruder in the house. Just as she was reach ing for a button to turn on the lights, she was grabbed from behind and fingers closed upon her throat. Un- able to scream and give an alarm, Mrs Smith struggled with her assailant in an endeavor to wrench herself free.
 Back and forth in the darkened rooms of the house the uneven struggle con- tinued until Mrs Smith managed to work her way to the rear door. Only then did the man, who Mrs. Smith believes to have been an American, release his hold upon her throat. An instant later he dashed out the door, down to an alley at the rear of the lot and disappeared
 Almost immediately Mrs Smith gave an alarm and dozens of neighbors were quickly on the scene. Telephone messages brought the police and depu- ties from the sheriffs office in double quick time. Word was also telephoned to the armOry where Mr. Smith, a sar- geant on Company A, Phoenix Police

Ethel Barrymore at the Hip

Ethel Barrymore in The Greatest power" a picture of today. is the two day attraction at the Hip. It is a love story of two great people. A man and a woman at the same time discover a great chemical boon to mankind. It has two properties. It is a cure for cancer and the man hopes to cure the world. The girl, who also discovers it, learns that it is the greatest de- structive engine in the world and she intends to give it to her government, which is at war to help stem the tide of defeat. The man who loves her is a pacifist and tries to prevent the use of the wonderful exp-0siye, bat love gives way when she commands and the wonder is placed in the hands of her people to destroy the Notifications of the enemy.
 The picture, while it takes it's theme from war, has nothing to do with War or war scenes. It simpy discusses the conflict at a distance.
 Ethel Barrymore in the part of the girl chemist, is said to have one of the greatest parts of her screen career. A Frank Daniels comedy, Capt. links Butts in,' is added and still another filler is announced in another Arizona ComotOne of the beauties of Arizona.

against the common enemy of our civ ilization. it should be fully understood that their service is heartily welcomed and they should be accepted whenever upon summons they fail to claim their right to exemption they are assisting the cause of their own country by aiding the United States to triumph in this war.
 ''The more of them that enter the service the better, for in this way will be removed the cause of dissatisfaction heard in some quarters that although the quota was based on total popula- tion, including aliens, the actual draft reached only citizens and declarents. Local boards are directed to fa- cilitate in every way the acceptance of friendly alien non -declarents for mil itary service and thus enable them to do their share to assist the country which has given them a refuge and an honorable living.
