ARMED FOR DEFENSE.

There is every reason why Pres'. dent Wilson should have ordered the American merchant ships to be ann ed for their protection against Ger man submarines. There was but one of two things to do, one being to withdraw from the high seas alto. gether. and the other to prepare to protect the commerce if 1t was main tained.
 The merchant ships are armed for protection. They are not armed for warfare. They do not propose to go out on the high seas and exchange warlfre with others. The merchant ,,aifffps are afraid ony of German sub marines, and therefore they are pre- pared to send German submarines to the bottom of the ocean in the event they encounter them.
 Since the German submarine sinks without warning of course 1t is not up to the American merchant ship to give any warning. Therefore We are actively engaged in warfare in order to maintain our commerce on the high feas.
 The most hopeful view Of the sit- nation that can be taken here is that we will get no further involved in the mad conflict, and certainly the armns of our merchant men for their protec- ton against highwayuen of the sea. son. IS not ever to be considered oe- gressiye by he historians of the :u- ture. ~'s sf
 President Wilson has pursued such a careful policy al the way that this last move seems also to be made with all the care that calm deliberauca could suggest The orders that have gone to tue gunners on the armed merchautment have been kept secret as they should have been, but they are proper orders because they have come from a source of ca m unpreii- iced American spirit

SYMPATHY FOR JUDGE NELSON.

Judge Francis Nelson, now sojoura- ing in our city, and whose home is in Toronto. Canada, received the brief announcement Friday afternoon that his son had been killed somewhere in France" a few days before
 The news was news that an anxious father and a pTayerful mother hod feared in time would come to them, as it had come to other homes whose ranks had been scarred by the shell of bloody conflict.
 This young man mad at the age of 2G entered the service of his country. He entered as a private. Within a few months he was given eaptaincy, ai time when there was little left of hts company to command. It is said that after one particularly terrible en' gagement the company in which ihis young man enlisted had but four meu left. Young Nelson was a private until gradually the officers wers swept down under shot and she'll and when four of them were left fighting at the front alone. Nelson was in com mand, and thereafter he was made [ captain for his bravery. 4 few months more and his bravery and dash has caused him to be promoted to ths title Of major. and at 21 years of age

GET CHANCE TO A|D
 PAREDNESS

X movement to organize the school children of the United States in nation wide Betsy Ross Societies, taking their name from the woman who at the suggestion of George Washington, made the first American flag adopted by congress, has been started in Mer- idian, Mass, according to an Associated Press dispatch
 The purposes of the societies are to mobilize the children of the country in to a union that would inculcate patriot ism through the making of American flags for local, school or other uses, to foster participation in Flag Day cele- brations, to make the children feel they have a part in national events now transpiring and to counteract alien ten dencies in the United States, especially among children of foreign born eiti- zens by insulting lessons of loyalty.
 When the movement became known in Phoenix. local organizations prom ised cordial support. the Daughters of the American Revolution. the Daugh- ters of the Confederacy, the Mary Bro die Auxiliary of United Spanish War Veterans and leading patriots of the city.
 Judge Frank H. Lyman of the super for court believes the plan an excellent one and is whole-heartedly in favor of the loyalty movement. He believes that school children should be taught the meaning of the flag and further sug- gests that the lessons in flag making be accompanied by a patriotic reading or discussion.
 Mrs. J. L. B. Alexander, president of the Mary Brodie Auxiliary of U. s. W. V. has long believed that an effort to inculcate patriotism in the school chill dren should be made. It is her idea at present to inaugurate 8 patriotic essay contest in the school and award a flag prize to the winning room. Mrs. Alex ander regrets that the Phoenix school children are not taught to salute the flag.
 Mrs. F. A Eeane of the Arizona Con gress of Mothers is an ardent advocate of Betsy Ross societies. Children of the west do not realize what patriotism really is.'' said Mrs. Beane. Our school system is lacking in the fact that it has neglected to teach this vital lesson. Let the boys and girls learn the meaning of the flag.
 Judge Frank O. Smith of Prescott be lieves in everything that tends toward patriotism is staunchly in favor of the Betsy Ross plan.
 Mrs. William L. Pinney, secretary of ] the Daughters of the American ReVolu- tion not only believes in the flag mak- i ing in the schools, but will ask the D. A. R. to get behind the movement.
 Mrs. w. K. James, active Red Cross worker is strongly in favor of teaching young America the meaning of the flag. l Anything that teaches loyalty is a very good thing, said Mrs. John Den ] nett Jr., in favoring the plan, | C.

ROOSEVELT REGIMENT FILLING
 UP FAST WITH LIVE AR|zON|AN5

The men of Arizona. the ones with good red blood and plenty of patriot ism are willing to enlist, in spite of re- ports and rumOrs going out to the contrary. In the short time which rep resentatiVes of Colonel Roosevelt have been in Arizona, Phoenix especially has responded to his call. and enrolled right enthusiastically.
 Before leaving Phoenix. J. II. Light foot who was in the state aiding Major Frederick Russel Burnham to raise and organize d battalion, succeeded in ln- ing up practically all the men he need cd for his Blythe company. Major BuInham has been delegated by Colo nel Roosevelt to raise four companies and selected Arizona and California for his recruiting grounds.
 There has been 2 great deal Of scep- ticism regarding the possibility of the war department granting Colonel Roosevelt permission to raise his di- vision Since the colonel's visit to Washington last week, most of those clouds have disappeared. Although he has given out no official word and Sec retary Baker has not had anything to say on the matter. the fact that Presi- dent Wilson granted an hour of his highly valuable time to the eX-presi- dent. while he laid before him his plans, made it very evident that at least the government is inclined to think about the matter.
 Colonel Roosevelt has always had faculty for picking the best men Ob- tainable for his advisers. In the rais- ing of his division he has used this faculty to good advantage He has selected regular army cOlOnels for that number of the regiments, and has three volunteer cOlonels who have seen active service. John (. Greenway. a former Rough Rider. is one Of these colonels and will probably command the Arizona contingent
 Those who are at present conducting the campaign in Phoenix and vicinity have no knowledge of the mobilization plans for the division, but there is no doubt but what Colonel Roosevelt and his advisers have them all worked out and when authority is given to organ ize, each man. enrolled will be given notice where and when to report The present plan is for six days notice to he given everyone.
 only one advertisement. for recruits has been put in the local papers and the results were well worth the effort. Four men came in from Chandler and enrolled. and two from Ray signed their names. One of the Ray men is taking back enrolment blanks with which to obtain recruits in that camp
 The requirements for enrolment in the Roosevelt division are that the recruit must be an American citizen in good health, and used to living in the open and roughing it.
 A knowledge of riding is also re- puirei. Practically all of the men com ing in are COW boys who are anxious 10 get into some sort of an organiza- tion which will see service. Somehow or other they have an aversion to do- ing patrol duty and believe that Colonel Roosevel. with his world Of dynamic energy will see that his men are not

only well taken care of but will be in on what ever excitement there is.
 Major Frederick Russel Burnham, who will command a battalion of the Arizona and California troops, is a. so- licitOr of wide experience. He has been through any. number Of campaigns serving in all of tn emWith distinction. He is major in the British army. but an American citizen. When the Boer war broke out and Lord Roberts was placed in supreme command of the British troops, he sent an Indian run ner 500 miles into the Klondyke to find Major Burnham. The major at once left for South Africa, and so distin- guished were his services that follow ing his being invalided back to Eng land. Queen Victoria personally invited him to dinner, and invested him with the medal of the Distinguished Service Order. and prsented him with the South African medal with five bars For his services during a previous campaign. he was given 300 square miles of land in South Africa and d large sum of money. During Colonel RoOseVelt's historic trip through Africa. Major Burnnam entertained the former president for several weeks.
 During the absence of MT. Lightfoot in Blythe, enrolment blanks may be obtained in the news department of The Arizona Republican.

MOTOR SHOWS WIDE FLEXIb|LITY
 IN DEMONST

From one mile an hour on high to 45 miles an hour in 32 seconds was the resord established by a six cylin- der Paige machine in a demonstration the past week. The evenness in the purr of the motor during this demon stration was one of the outstanding features.
 To demonstrate the flexibility of the Paige motor, the local dealer brought the machine to d full stop with his gears in high. Then he released the clutch and immediately the motor be- gan to pill. There was no jumping of the motor, no slipping of gears or other undue vibration Once again he at tempted this same demonstration. but before releasing his clutch speed his engine to a high rate of speed. Then he released and without hesitation, the car jumped away to speed of about IS miles an hour.
 The demonstration also included various other features in Paige con- struction, which are found exclusive ly in this machine Those who wit hessed it were of the opinion that it was one of the best ever given in this cit
