 Condemns Using Grains for Alcohol

The various committees will be called together as soon as possible by the chairmen, and direct and decisive action taken at once.
 In the appointment of the members of the committees a number of promi- nent women of the state were given consideration. It was endeavored as far as possible to put on those com mittees women who were at the head of movements similar in character. In this connection, the heads of the Nor mon relief societies were added at the suggestion of Bishop Kimball.
 Council is Organized
 Comprehensive plans for the conser- vation of Arizonas industrial, agri- cultural and commercial resources and for the protection of the same against any possible enemy were laid when members of the state council of defense convened in the senate chamber at the state house yesterday, to perfect this all-important organization. Work of the council for the day was cen tered in formulating sub committees to take up various branches of en- deavor, which will be under the direct supervision of the defense council. Dwight B. Heard of Phoenix was unanimously elected president of the Arizona Council of Defense at the af- , ternoon meeting, when it was deter mined to make the organization per manent one. He will also serve as chairman of the executive committee the other members being elected as | follows:
 T. A. Riordan, J. L. Donnelly, C. E Mills, D. H. Claridge. Dr. s. T. Mac | Dougall, L. H. Manning and Captain | r Co , bell will serve also on this committed as eX-officio member.
 In accepting the presidency of the council, MT. Heard said in part: 'I will give the council the very best that is in me for this all important work and in this great crisis. l req 1 liZe full well the gigantic tasks before us and if we are to be successful, wt must plunge into the various detail. with both hands and with our hear wholly in the work.
 We must all go back to our friend: and neighbors and solicit their aid il making this council the success i should be. 1 am sure that at this time patriotism shall spell more to us al than any personal gains. We must ac promptly in this great movement"
 MT. Heard was cheered roundly a the conclusion of his talk and all of th' 39 members of the council presen pledged their support in behalf of th' chair.
 The committee appointed at tn 1 morning session to form a permanen order of business made its report il the afternoon. In addition to the sub committees suggested by GOvernO Campbell in his opening remarks, tn committee recommended that two ad ditional sub bodies be named to carr. out: first, legislation wherever it i found necessary, and, second, interstat legislation.
 These two committees, it was stated would be of unlimited value to tn council in effecting legislation whic would undoubtedly be necessary to pu into force many emergency measures Insofar as interstate legislation is con cerned, however, the committee coul only serve in the capacity as an advis Ory council.
 The following committees wer l created.

FOES Of PACIFISTS
Asked TO enroll
Want Open Support Of
Wilson in Protecting
Rights on Sea
JEW WORKERS
BACK MOVEMENT

NEW YORK, Feb. 27.-Many promi-
nent Americans, who believe that tho
time has come to assure President
Wilson that he will have the over
whelming support OF the nation in
taking effective measures to meet the
German submarine menace, have is
lued an appeal, asking citizens to join
In an adequate expression of Ameri-
can sentiment. The appeal follows:
"Many citizens who are intensely
convinced that the present state of the
German submarine question demands
prompt and vigorous action in defense
OF American rights, hesitate to press
their views for fear of embarrassing
the President. No such consideration
stays the hands of those who seek to
paralyze any effort he may make TO
carry into practical effect his pledge
to omit no act necessary for the pro-
lection of American ships and Ameri-
can citizens engaged upon lawful err
rands on the high seas.
"The clamor of extreme paciists
and of those who from other motives
are opposed TO this patriotic course
makes itself insistently heard within
Congress and without 1t is no longer
permissible, therefore, for those to
remain silent who wish to support
the President in the protection of our
national rights and the defense Of our
national honor.
"Our ships and our flag arc being ex-
cluded from tho seas by the threat OF
death and destruction conveyed in Ger
manys declaration of war on neutral
shipping The need of the hour is u
take elfectual measures to safeguard
our shipping and our citizens, rather
than to wait for Americans to be muir
dered and then 60 TO war TO punish the
offender. To refuse or TO delay such
protection too long would be to acqui-
csce I'm the subjugation of American
rights to German domination.
"All those who desire TO Join in eX-
pressing these views are invited to send
their names to Nathan a. Smyth, score
tary, 50 Broadway"
Il was said that all names received
would be sent to tho President and Ia
members of Congress. Several hundred
have been obtained, among them Joseph
Vt. Choate, Alton p. Parker, John b
Stanchhcld, Martin W. Littlcton. Robert
