WASHINGTON. May 23.-(SpeciaD Herbert c. Hoover who won interna- tional fame as head of the Belgian re- lief commission, is to be Americas first food dictator. Congressional leaders have assured President Wilson that he is to be given complete control of the food situation. The president, in turn, will delegate his power to Hoover.
 Hoover recently declared that there would be no famine in the United States this year, but ne said further:
 Unless federal control of the food supply is esta blished the American people should prepare to pay S20 a barrel for flour and make up their minds they will not be in a position to furnish to the allies the surplus food they would be in position to furnish under proper regulation.
 The present price of flour. Mr. Hoover asserted. can be reduced 40 to 50 per cent with proper control, at the same time giving the producer a liberal profit
 Would Protect People from 'Skunks'
 Food control, as defined by MT f Hoover, does not mean bread cards What he desires to accomplish is to protect the people against what he termed "the small minority of skunks' responsible for imitation of food prices.
 There is absolutely no occasion for food panic in this country MT. Hoover declared, nor any justification for out rageous prices unless the opposition of special interests defeats the president in obtaining the necessary powers to control the nations food fully and ade- quately. America s problem is not one of, famine, for we have now and will H.. problem is, after the protection of our own people to give to our allies the last ounce of surplus of which We are ca pable."
 Two Purposes Of Food Control The nation needs food control, Mr Hoover asserted, for two purposes | ITO regulate prices and to increase the surplus. After providing our normal consumption we will have, together

THE ADvENTUROlJS CAREER
 OF MRS. CARMELITACAMPB

 Mrs Campbell notwithstanding her advanced age has vivid and accu- rate recollection of the events of her childhood and of her early life in Ari- zona. She remembers the names of persons who figured in the early his tory of the territory and the dates Of events of which had been almost for gotter.
 Sometime after her marriage, her father WAS invited by the president of Chile to return to that country and take the supervision of railroad build ing then in contemplation by the gov ernment. Collins required more money for taat undertaking that he had and he made known his need to one Meade ther connected with the minl at Son Francisco. Meade offered to , furnish the money and did frrnien it taking it from the deposits of miners in the mint. Discovery was mode soon , after the vessel on which he sailed | with the Collins and Campbell fami- : lies. and a pursuit was organized anu maintained to the bay of Valparaiso On the arrival there of the Ameri- car vessel, the president of Chile ar ranged for repayment 10 tho mint of the gold Meade had apstracted. Col iills and his wife remained in that country but Campbell returned at the
 urgent solicitation of his wife who though her relatives aD now lived ir Chile Was herself of American birtl [ and preferred to be au American Mir. and Mrs. Campbell came to Arizona in 1869 at tho solicitation ol General Crook, though he was mol then a general. It was his first mis- sion in Arizona though many years later. after the civil war, he WAS senl
 Mrs Campbell he'd known Crook from childhood. After his graduation from West Point in 1852, he was sent to California and was frequent visitor at the home of Collins at Orc. vile.

with Canada surplus for our allies equal to only 60 per cent of the food they require from us. If We take broad measures of control, we can, with as little disturbance to economic ma chinery as need be, furnish them an additional 20 per cent. Their loaf even then will be q privation loaf. and every ounce we can put in it will diminish their privation"
 But MT. Hoover adds: If the whole world, allied and neutral, is to have the unrestricted run of our mar kets in competition with each other and in competition with the speculator in this country, We may expect to see $5 wheat before the year is over.'
 Stating what it is hoped to be ac- complished by the legislation which President Wilson faVOrs. MT. Hoover added:
 i No Arbitrary Interference
 Large measures of food control do not mean arbitrary interference with i the necessary economic machinery of trade They mean that every branch be called in by the government and forge themselves into a link from which the contemplated chain will pro- tect producers, legitimate distributor and consumer For instance, am as- surea that the American farmer did not realize Sl.30 per buShel fOr tho 9ls wheat harvest, yet the price of wheat in New York today is $325 Ter bushel and flour is s14 per barrel with all it's attendant hardship and disloca- tion of social and industrial life
 ''f have no hesitation in saying that f the able. patriotic men representing the majority of each branch of the food trades were clothed with the necessary i powers to force the small minority of i skunks that exist in every trade one result would be that an equally nutriti- ous flour based on even $50 wheat could be sold in New York for a good i deal under sS per barrel. and every trade would receive it's legitimate pro fit Without control we may see S20 flour before the year is out and a total dislocation Of wages and consequent
 aislocation of industry and living"

CpmLbell said that ler two chief in- terests in life from that time became politics and mining.
 The mercantile business in which they had been engaged since their settlement in the territory, both at La Paz anG Prescott, has been very ,rofitab;c They had acquired property ill Prescott ranches in the Chino and the Verde valleys anu large numbers of horses and cattle. Mrs. Campbell, too, had been in receipt ce large sums of money from her fAther ill Chile who was now wealthy.
 The tide afterward turned against them and after the death of her hus- band her property consisted of certain mining properties they had acquired a generation ago and which until re- gently was an annual burden upon her These properties are near the present site of Wenden They were discovered by John Reddick soldier Nho cane into Prescott with samples of ere he had found and showed them to Campbell. Campbell was not great ". interested Tn mines and knew lit tie about them. He said, My wife is he mining partner of this firm; I'll tell her about it.
 She advised the purchase of the property after having visited it. There was no water at the mines then and an arrastra was set up on ranch owned by the Campoclis nine miles distant. The first ore was very rlch, running $400 d toii. The gold was brought to Phoenix. carried in cans of water as a protection against rob- bers.
 Eater the taking out of the gold re- 1usred more money than the Camp bells could furnish and t was then that the mine became burden. The Campbells had hard work to keep the assessment werk doEe on the property but they managed to do it and the Wlrk has been kept up by Mrs. Campbell since the death of her hus- hand.
 Mot long ago sheN property was turned over to a company, the Car rl1elita Mining and Milling company. The property embraces seventeen claims 1e miles north of Wenden and the developments have given assur- ance that the remaining years of Mrs. Campbell will be spent amid plenty. Recently 1000 feet of work has been done and therc are now 5000 tons of free milling ore on the dump. The average assays of the ore so far taken out is S1750 Sufficient water has teen developed for milling purposes and camp uses. The property has been capitalized at the modest sum of S350 GOO shares S1 each. No in deptedness stands against the prop erty and a good auto road has been nuiit to it. The immediate object O. the company is to erect a mill or the ground and all money derived from the sale of stock goes to that purpose and the filrthe: equipment of the property. The president of the company is Captain P. P. Parker and the .secrstary treasurer. J A. Marr.

There are about S0000 registered opi-
 un smokers in Formosa according to
 Rev, E. ". ThWing. of Peking. oriental secretary Of the international reform
 bureau. lie was speaking at a meeting
 of Japanese and AmeTicans in Tokio : which was discussing both opium and mOrDhia questions in their relation to the far east.
 Gr Thwing said when the govern
 ment monopoly was started in For
 mosa twenty years ago, there were
 10000 registered smokers and that all
 though 50,000 have died there are now
 over 80,000, indicating a gradual in-
 crease.
 Speaking of moTphia. he said that in the first half of 1914. nine and one half tons of the drug were imported into Japan, chiefly from England, and that a great portion found it's way to China. During my five years in Manchuria, " he said. q have seen the terrible havoc wrought by this insidious drug. | Thousands of poor people die in the i large cities during winter partly from cold. but chiefly from inability to work on account of their morphine habits. Unless strong action is taker. the nor phine evil will inevitably sp-eai and render futile all our efforts to eradicate the opium evil"
 ] The Rev. Mir. ThWing urges the ap- pointment of a strong committee of Japanese to investigate, inform the public and induce the government to take action against the importation of
 such quantities of morphine which he
 declared was a menace to the Jap arese, as well as q disturbing factor in
 the relations between Japan and
 China

 Zinc
 Zinc is just now a very important : metal. Of course it's use in cartridges | and shrapnei hrass are just now in the ! public eye But, it's uses after the war are no less important. Brass as an ersineering material for electrical ma chinery, journal bearings, and plumbing fixtures takes fully 50 per cent of the production, and it's use in these lines would have been increased in the last few years but for the price. It's use for balbed wire is probably more in war time than in peace. In the composition of paints it is becoming more and more necessary. One Of the forms of pig ment, lithopone is the base of nearly all interior wall paints; of at lthe sani ! tary enamels for tath-rooms and bath tubs, and is now in great demand. Zinc oxide is also increasing in use for paint, and for manufacture of linoIeum
 :, When We realize that this district, i Missouri, Oklahoma. Kansas and Arkansas produces now over one-third of the zinc ore of the world il is at once seen that meeting where the geology, mining. concentration and smelling of this ore will be considered and trips to Joplin. Missouri, and Miami, Oklahoma, made as well as to some of the modern smelters where the sulphurOus gases are turned into sul- phuric acid will not only be interest ing, but at this time important. We want to show you the immense low grade mines of Joplin and Webb City, Missouri. Some mines produce ores with only one per cent of zinc. Like wise, we want to show you the high grade mines 0f Miami Arizona. also where some of the mines are producing ore that nets 20 per cent zinc.
 The problems connected with the concentration are not so simple as they once looked It seasy to get out the first per cent of the value. but the treatment of the shines is as yet a problem. Much is hoped for in the comparatively new process of flOta- tion. The precise place of the new electrolytic process of recovering zinc is not vet known. It has proven success ful in Montana, and may be equally , valuable in this district.
 | We invite to our meeting next OctO- Der all who can give intelligent an swer to the question How to get the last few per cent of zinc out of the ore?''

TRAINED ARMY NECESSARY.

Aiibu~AVn Il O-t-J
The chief dread of the American youth
Is the drudgery and monotony of camp life
and that there is little hat i agreeable
about it may be admitted. Such com
plants were numerous enough among mem
bers of the national guard who spent
months on the international boundary.
And that Is why We are hearing criti
cism upon the part of governors and con
gressmen TO the "selective CONSUMPTION
plan embraced in the army bill now being
considered by congress.
We hear it from various parts of the
country that the men want to volunteer and
90 to the front now, and no doubt millions
are willing 10 do 80, but manifestly that
kinf of warfare j. now impossible. To send
volunteers TO Europe as they were mus
tered into service during the civil and
Spanish American wars would mean the
needless sacrifice of hundreds of thols-
ands of lives not only in actual battle. but
from wounds and diseases. And for hun
dreds of thousands of others the country
would be paying bihfonS in pensions for
nearly a century 10 come.
The most disagreeable way j. the best
way. The general staff wants first an
army of men physically fit, and next il
wants men who know how to fight in the
modern way under capable officers.
The old volunteer plan of enlisting vol
u~nteers, with officers appointed who know
little or nothing of warfare, and selected
through political favoritism by governors
or chosen by the men themselves with nc
qualification but popularity, would be ruin
Gus.
The Post believes that the enlisted man
j. more concerned in knowing that the men
who are to lead him are highly capable
than that they are popular %neighbors OF
personal friends.
The camp is the preliminary school in
which the boys must learn the science of
modern warfare and the many necessary
lessons which will enable him to render the
best service at the minimum risk to himself
and the lowest possible cost to the coun-
try.
The members of the national guard whc
went to the border came back ten times
"a good soldiers a. they were when they
went. They came bach hardened. healthy
capable men, better in all respects for tn,
hardship> they endured. The army wants
the best raw material the country can az.
ford. and it i necessary Go hammer thi-
raw material into condition 80 that the
country's purposes may be the better
achieved.
Many Of the objections to the pending
army bill are based upon a lack of infor-
nation n to it, provisions. 1t i safer Il
trust the judgment Of the general staff in
such matters than that of politicians.
