PLACED
 IN CONG. RECORD

The protest of the Tusayan Cattle Growers Association has found it's way into the Con- gressional Record thru the in terest and activity of Congress man Carl Hayden of Arizona. The Association is in receipt of a letter from MT. Hayden in which he expresses the wish that the cattle growers on the Tusayan Forest may be able to demonstrate that a further raise will not be necessary. The letter was addressed to MT. T. F. Holden and appears below.

I eDruary (, l9l1 MT. Fred Holden,
 Williams, Arizona. My dear Fred:
 am in receipt of your letter of January 20, and I am mail ing under another cover a copy of the Congressional Record in which I have printed number of protests against the propos- ed advance in grazing fees on the National Forests, among them being an open letter from the Tusayan Cattle Growers Association, which you kindly sent to me. As a result of the vigorous kick against the pro- posed increase the Secretary of Agriculture has changed his plan of action so that the in crease for next year will be 25 instead of 33 1-3 per cent as was originally contemplated, and has promised to investigate the local conditions on indivi- dual forests before further in- creases are authorized.
 
 I sincerely trust that the stock growers on the Tusayan Forest vii be able to demon strate that a further raise in rates will not be justified in their case.
 Assuring you of my desire to serve you whenever possible, 1 am,
 Yours very truly
 Carl Hayden

THE HORRORS OF WAR

Those who have not experienced the horrors of war only know of its terrors by 'hear say" but even then it's bad enough
 But terrible as death on the battle field may be, 1t has no more terrors than some other things life of grinding, pinching poverty for instance. Death amidst the roar and crash of battle fright fu, but death is at least mercifully the end But to live and struggle on from day to day poverty possibly under load of debt but little hope. just struggling along wearing the life away by inches, that takes courage and is enough to try the stout est heart The way to avoid this is by systematic saving. Our bank will do it's best to save YOU from fate worse than the horrors of war

No Time For Side Issues.

The following words which occur
In a letter to the New York Times are
worthy of the highest consideration
by all those one-idea persons who
cannot grasp that it is little short Of
reasonable to divert the governments
attention to any issues that do not di-
rectly bear upon the conduct of the
war. They should be especially heed
ed by the cranks of both sexes who
appear to consider that the war was
ordained for the special purpose of
nisuring the passage of the woman
Suffrage amendment and national pro-
hibition. The correspondent echoes
the sentiment of every sensible man
and woman in the United States when
he writes as follows:
every act that tends to dilute the
energy that the government must de-
vote to the war is bullet in the back
of the brave young fellows who are
going to the front to defend US. 1t is
intolerable to think that single citi-
en- is SO ignorant of the seriousness of
che situation as to treat it so lightly
