Government and Red Light Districts

In closing redght districts adjacent, and not ernment is exercising power which it will surprise most people, to learn exists But it does exist along with many other powers which will be applied from lime to time as need for the exercise arises
 The first we heard of the use of this authority vas week ago when dispatch announced one night that all redight districts within 15O miles of Camp Cody at Deming, New Mexico, had that day been abolished. Now the districts in Arizona are being wiped out. In Tucson and Phoenix that has long been anticipated.
 The government from the standpoint of the best efficiency of the soldier is closing these districts the benefit the health the soldiers-aIready in the camps. No doubt it has in mind also the health of those who have yet enlisted have not been drafted but who will later enter be called into the military service, and we have doubt that within the next year two. every young man to whom such places aluring will be in the service country in capacity. It is evidently therefore the pur- pose of the government to close all such places all the country, regardless of proximity to existing military camps Otherwise such an extended radius as 15O miles would not have been fixed
 The governments reason for closing these places is, curiously the chief that advocates of re- strcted district have offered for its exstence-a trol of the diseases which the government is now en- deavoring to prevent. It the theory of these advocates that municipal control of such places was

CAMPAIGN STARTS
 AFTER LONG DELAY

MESA, Dec. 22.-The Red Cross membership campaign started off yes terday at Mesa with a rush. that is it rushed after it got started. The com mittee in charge was until 330 o'clock in the afternoon securing the Red Cross booths from Phoenix, owing to an unintentional delay at the other end of the route. Immediately after the two booths were erected on Main street, the women workers got busy and by 6 o'clock in the afternoon had secured about 15G names for membership. The campaign was started with the meeting as chronicled in yesterdays Republican, when Messrs Goodrich, Loper and Marks came over from Phoenix the night before and warmed up the crowd in a very cold hall. However, the lack of stove did not freeze out the ardor of either speakers or audience, and Dan Hilbert, Elijah Allen and Rev. Francis Bloy, the committee appointed, pro- ceeded yesterday to organize the cam- paign, with the result above stated and today will see the enrolling in full swing. Men workers are needed at the booths, to aid the women, as Dan Hib- bert put it, ito hold them while the women got the money However | there is no need for pressure as the citizenship of Mesa is evidenciug keen est interest in the campaign and it is merely a question of getting in touci.

the best security against venerea ailments That might be true in some but do not think that the regulation exercised anywhere offset the un restricted opportunity that was afforded for the spread of these diseases
 The mere closing of these places, however, is only the beginning of the work of the federal government if the end it seeks is to be fully attained. In many places where municipal governments in deference to aroused public opinion, have abolished redlight dis tricts they have permitted the habiues to scatter into whatever parts of the municipalities they could find refuge leaving situation from both social and health roints of view worse than the original one. It will be the business of the federal government to that laxity of local officials in this respect shall be cor rected if not by the municipal officials, then bY federal officials

TEMPE FLAGSTAFF
 CAME |S THRILLING

TEMPE, Dec. PA game that was full of thrills at every minute of play and kept the spectators in doubt as to the outcome to the end, was game played on the Normal grounds Thursday afternoon between the girls basketball team of the Tempe Normal and the girls team of the Flagstaff Normal. When the game closed with 20-20 score, the onlookers went wild. In the play-off, Miss Haynes for Tempe caught a high ball and threw a goal, scoring the necessary two points and giving the game to the locals.
 It kept the nerves of everybody on edge when neither side was able to make any material advance over the other. Ten times during the game the score was tied and the first half closed with the score 10-10. Both teams played clean, aggressive basket ball, played with @ spirit that would do credit to team of boys.
 Flagstaff proved to be a good loser and the girls showed themselves to be true sports. In the evening, the Normal girls gave a banquet in honor of the Flagstaff girls and had the | boys and girls cams of the Tempe l school present as guests.

peaIina With Lie-Monaers

Declaring War on Lie -Mongers' is the caption of timely article in the current Literary Digest in relation to matter in which every community in tff country is concerned. The lies peddled are those which reflect upon the management of activity, official official private connected with the war Whether they calculated to do not their effect if allowed to run uncharenged and disproved is to undermine in greater or lesser degree public confidence in those engaged in those activities
 Those lies unwisely, though sometimes inno- gently circulated and growing with circulation, are of varied character Some relate to conditions in the camps We recall one particularly widespread one in which it was stated that oenemy physician had inoculated hundreds of boys at Camp Funston with the germs of spinal meningitis There was no foundation whatever for that lie.
 Another widespread lie is that the knitted pro- ducts of the Red Cross being sold in both this country and in France Such a story has just been nailed in Phoenix said that the wife of a weu-known physician had knitted a sweater for her son. a soldier in France. In pocket of the sweater she put a with her name. In due course she re- ceved a letter from a soldier, stranger; congratu- lating himself having been able to buy so good garment for so little money-SS.50
 This was investigated. The wife of the physician had received no letter; she had enclosed no such note in the pocket of a sweater she had sent to her son: she had sent him no sweater. This is a sample of the stories one may hear almost any day in any part of the country.
 A more or less orderly and systematic campaign is being organized all the country against lies of that and every character which may bring dis comfort and dscontent. The first step is to trace them to their source. This is good campaign for Phoenicians to engage in When story of this sort is brought to ones notice he should trace it back to it's beginning. More often than not he will find it originated in the imagination of some person. not Intentionally harmful; or it may be that it was an imported story which in circulation acquired local setting Then again it may lead to the uncovering of a pro-enemy.

GERMANYS EXPLANATIONS"

Germany's explanations do not explain. To cut q mans throat cannot be compensated by a click of the heels and a polite phrase. Pro-German talk has been too dangerously like the following: At recess playing in the yard,
 Willie strangled Susie hard; Susie died in dreadful pain.
 Said teacher, Don't do that again" Willie killed his baby sister;
 After while the teacher missed her. Sister, dying made noise
 Teacher said, Boys will be boys.'

After the store had been closed, Mexican, who had been in the habit of trading with the Chinaman, knocked on the door and was admitted. Making a small pur- chase he left but before the door could be closed after him, two other Mexi- cans pushed in and committed the rob- bery. Acting on the supposition that the first one was decoy, the officers arrested him yesterday. The others have not been apprenended.
