JOHN R. MOTT
 WIRES NEEDS IF
 ''Y'S" WAR FUND

The Phoenix district has received the thanks and congratulations of the National War Work council at New York, for the excellent work done fin raising the districts quota of the "" war work fund.
 The new turn of events on both the eastern and southern battle fronts, however, has given those in a position to know the facts, cause for grave concern. In a telegram to Dr. J. C. Norton. head of the local "" work campaign, Dr. John R. Mott. international "Y'' secretary, who was numbered in the presidents personal commission to Russia, says that startling developments in Europe lead those high in official Washington to believe that the war will last longer than ever has been anticipated.
 For this reason, Dr. Mott declares that the war work fund for the ''Y'' must be increased to much larger figure than s35,O00,000. He urges, the campaign for the fund and thai district.

 Dr. J. c. Norton,
 '. M. C. A., Phoenix, Ariz.
 On behalf of the executive com mittee, the national War Work coun- cil desires to express our great grati- fication regarding the splendid pre- paratory work of yourself and those associated with you in the great campaign. Reports from the entire country afford ground for hope that the $35,000000 goal will be reached, provided there be no letup at any point. and provided in place of over confidence, there be timely sense Of real dependence on Divine assistance in the light of the startling develop ments on the eastern and southern fronts within the past few days. and in the light of a significant cable gram just received from the prime minister of France.
 It is clear that we shall need much more than $35.000,000 and this in the national interest, as well as for the sake of the allies. These recent de- velopments have convinced our best advisors that the war will continue longer than most of them anticipated when our goal was fixed, and all think it would be most desirable ii we could now raise a sum sufficient to make another canvass unneces- ! sary prior to October.
 JOHN R. MOTT. Those in the Phoenix district who have not as yet subscribed to thu | fund are urged now to do so. in view of the startling facts. presented ir the telegram. Contributions may b. | given to any of the committees fo
 the fund in Phoenix. or to the 10 cal "Y"

This amount will be used for Red Cross Christmas packets, HOO having been the allotment of the local chapter.
 Mrs. Louis Chalmers stated last evening that since the allotment had been raised 300 since the original request of 500 was placed with the Phoenix chapter, it would require an increditable amount of work to prepare the packets alone, besides attempting to raise funds should not a sufficient amount be procured from the sale of Red Cross Rosies.
 There is, still the urgent need of tin boxes, for which she has re- peatedly made requests, and anyone who has a tin is asked to leave it at the Phoenix Chamber of Com merce.

AIRDRAKE CA5E
 HEhRING IS SET

The application of the Phoenix Street Railway company to the state corpora ti0n commission for q further eXtention of the order requiring the company to install airbrakes on cars put on after the order was yesterday set for hearing tomorrow morning. The original order war made several years ago. It re- Quired the company to install airbrakes and double trucks on all its cars.
 The company secured a modification of the order so that it should apply only to cars thereafter installed. Now the company finds it necessary to make repairs on many of it's cars now in use and will be compelled to substitute for them other cars which it will have to bring in and which are not so equipped. On account of the war, the company states, it is unable to procure the air brakes for any of it's cars.
