Colonel L. Ryrens, appointed by the governor to represent Arizona as booster at the recent Peoria, III. eX-
 hibit of farm products, has returned
 home, more enthusiastic for the Salt
 River valley than ever. At Oklahoma
 City he succeeded in interesting off
 cers of the Liberty Cotton Oil com

 Sweeper company with large factory It Chicago. In a letter just received )y the attorney general his brother states that he has become so impressed gith the possibilities of the Salt River valley he does not know but that this

one since statehood has ever been charged with graft or crookedness We all pull together for equal principles to all and special privilege to none. You know where this principal orig mated. It was from an Illinois man, great and immortal Lincoln.
 We men of Arizona have given our mothers, wives, sisters. daughters and sweethearts, provided they reach the age of 21, the right to vote, and. God bless them, we have no cause to re- sret it, for- they have certainly handled the toll in many Instances more intelligently than We have some times in the past.
 History
 The history of our great new state is in two parts. One, l am sorry to state, is ever lost. The pendulum has swung from the time We had a happy and prosperous race, the cliff dwellers that had erected canals that today baffled the skill of American engi- neers. It then swung to period of Apache Indian warfare, but TOW it has swung back to a time of the most distinct opportunities that ever knocked at the door of man. One is the storN of a vanished race, who left behind them record of achievement in cave QWelllUSS, lHe TulllS Ol ItutDloS, IOTli- fications, abandoned irrigation canals and hieroglyphics on the Painted Rocks, which it is claimed antedat te the birth of Christ and record the ac- tivities of civilized, cultivated and La- fined people, who converted the desert into gardens, causing it's waste places to contribute to their comfort and happiness; science for 30 or 40 years have been studying these records. The other, beginning with the Spanish eX- plorers of the sixteenth century, and the successive governments under the Spanish, Mexican and American flags is the narrative of the building uI f of a great prosperous commonwealth the redemption of an empire from sav- agery to civilization.
 The other, for a story of our brave old pioneers who came over trails menaced by sayages and wild beasts but these old pioneers here lived tC see these trails followed by conti- mental railroads and automobile high. ways. The record of their achieve ments is not surpassed by the bray, and immortal followers of Washing. ton. They laid firm and deep tn, solid foundations of a great and pros porous commonwealth.

of mountains across the border in Northern Sonora, in what was then known as Pimeria Alta, and thereafter was applied to the territory now em- braced within the boundaries of the "Baby State" We call it the "Baby State" not because it is small. for it Is almost twice the size of England, or because it's resources are limited. for they are not. We have the crops, fruits and vegetation of the torrid zone. We also have snow on our mountains the year around. We have the highest per capita wealth of any state in the United States, and our re- sources are yet barely touched. We have the largest virgin pine forest in America. We have the greatest min erat deposits of any state in the Union. We have building stone enough to erect the public buildings of the world We have gold and silver enough for the world. We have unused energy enough in our great undeveloped water power to supply the southwest for all time to come. Our grassy plains and mountains have made and will make more millionaires in the cattle and sheep business.
 Our healthful climate has given health to invalids all over the world. Our scenery, unsurpassed, even by the beautiful Alps.
 Resources
 In fact we have a land of resources of which are more varied than the ever changing view of an evening rain bow or a sunset over the Grand Can yon; a land that pays the highest wages to the laboring man; the land 1 of hospitality ana opportunity; d land 1 where want is never found; a land a 1 mines and irrigation projects insure 1 prosperity; land where the rewards

Standardizinq

America has turned tanker" q great tank ship, of over 10000 tons burden in 93 days That is world record for construction. It was done by standardization. Standardization is the process of formulating standard style of construction so that individual parts can be made in endless numbers These parts are then assembled into the complete ship
 This process is the direct antithesis hand work. It means that, building thousands of ships all alike each part may be made thousand times by the same machine. All that is needed to put the parts to- automobile possible-the building of thousands Of cars all alike that machines be made a great cost to turn out each individual piece.
 This is the way the government hopes over come the ravages of the U-boat by building ships at more rapid rate than they be destroyed It means of course, the expenditure of millions and billions of dollars. but it winning the for the last hope the German is the U-boat With it he plans to starve the allies submission
 We cannot all go work in the shpyards mak- ing parts of the standardized ship, but all furnish something toward the fund which will make them possible If your $50 goes into a Liberty bond it may buy that part of ship which will complete the whole and it may be that ship which will bring a cargo of munitions or food to the allies in their needs.
 The best minds of the nation, the greatest lecturers in the world have laid the standardization plan All they need is the support of the people and that support is manifested in but ways. personal service and personal contributions money.

Fixing the Prices

While the thought of price control is many nearly all are familiar with price control--that of combinations in trade. los Angeles ;.s week the bakers who formed a v,ry substantial little which fixed the price of the bread the people must have, paid an even more sub stanal fine of several thousand dollars for so doing In Wisconsin the 5000 milk dealers who combined as to price have begged for the courts agreeing to abide by the price fixing power the governor.
 There is very real why many prices are high these days. Conditions such that were there not some control prices would go literally out of sight" For instance, the with the money would give practically any price for food to keep him alive if that were the only way he could get it. bat in many modern instances there is reason on the ground of demand why prices should have shot to the attitudes they have reached and investga tions will doubtless be the coming order the day.
 Wisconsin and Illinois acting jointly in the matter of control of the price of milk A commission consisting of public officials the food administrator and five members of the Milk Producers association fixes the price for milk consttuant members of the producers association supposed to abide by the result For this month the price fixed is 13 cents quart retail the producers, at least 6OOO of them refused to sell milk that figure brought them federal court as combina- tion in restraint of trade and when they found
 
 change their tactics
 It is rule of business that when prices advance very rapidly, they have this year, wages seldom keep pace with them This business condition is unt doubtedly working hardship upon the working man and in smaller degree upon the with the higher though fixed salary. Their only resoruce is to do without hence lowering their standard living. There is common ground between the of produc- ton~ with reasonable profit the price which charged simply because get it. staples it become necessary fix the price that common ground rather than let the producer charge the traffic will bear but it is rather advisable that no price fixing be than is absolutely necessary for it will upset tradition in the form of doing busi- ness.
 In normal days the flow business controls prices and their fixing is less left to the of de- mand and supply in the present price crisis for that is what it to- each producer trying to oudo the other producer to keep pace with his rising cost Of living and doing business result is high prices with which wage does not keep up.
 If prices doubled and wages are doubled no harm is done for the wage-earner simply has two dollars where he formerly had with which to buy for two dollars the thing he formerly purchased at that cost but when the jumps far of the wage something must be done, hence price regulation of Los Angeles and the mlkmen of Wisconsin seek to evade That they have been promptly brought to book in the courts is good thing this time for it teaches lesson and example to others who would attempt similar extortion
