FRANK MURPHY IN THE EYES
 OF THE EAST
NEW YORK TELEGRAPH CARRIES A TRIBUTE TO THE ARIZONA EMPIRE BUILDER, WHO PASSED AWAY RECENTLY.
(From Tuesdays Daily.)

In the death of Frank Nj. Murphy, Arizona and the Southwest have lost man who will may be numbered with the empire builders. Mir. Mur, phys projects made no particular
 stir. Few of those who invested or spcculated in Arizona mines or rail roads had heard of him, yet his per, sonal interests were well in the fore ground of the mining and railway de- vclopmcnt of his adopted State. It is now more than 20 years since Mir. Murphy appeared in Arizona as de veloper of the railroad and mining in tercsts, into which he had bought an interest. In the years that followed he was in the forefront of those who battled for Arizona's position in the mineral world. As is frequently the case, he rcaped little of the harvcs, of dollars, but his position was recog- nized throughout the State. He built Inc Prescott & Phoenix railroad, he organized the Development Company of America, and was the promoter of numerous companies in the Tomb stone district. He organized the Con gross mine, which yielded more than Sl7 100000 in metals. The railroad from Ash Fork to Phoenix proved one of the most important arteries of Ihe State, and but for it many of the mining companies which are recog- nizcd as the leading producers of the State, which stands Number One" in the list of copper producers, would never have been developed. Many times during his lifetime political and business leaders of Arizona referred to Mir. Murphy as the man through whose efforts Arizona had come into its own. Now that he has passed be- yond. the commendations will be doubled, but, while they will do him little good, they are comforting to his friends. Mir Murphy is really one Of the few men in the country who have heard his fellow-men refer to him in terms that they could not have inn proved upon were they cndeavoring merely to honor his memory with empty phrases, as is too often the case.
 Mir Murphy was an empire builder. The residents of his empire, which was Arizona, recognized it. His friends knew it. Nothing that can be said of him, now that he is dead, will exceed that which was said of him while he was yet among the living And this is something that is not usual. The writer knew Mir. Murphy, and is glad-as he always will be glad-that 1t was given to him to Frank Murphy among his York Morning Tclc- graph.

MOTORBKES ID LEND THRILLS
 ID FIESTA
WINNER OF PHOENIX TO PRE- corr RACE OF 1915 HERE, PROPOSES CALF TYING FROM A MOTORBIKE IN 1918.
(From Saturdays DaiIy.l

Ellie Wilson, winner of the Phoe- nix-Prescott motorcycle road race in 1915 was a highly disappointed rider when he arrived in this city and found no motorcycle sports arranged in connection with Frontier week. He took in the bucking broncho contests and sympathized with the riders, from a large fund of rough riding knowl- edge
 For, be it known, to sit astraddle of racing motorcycle is not bit less strenuous than to ride Halter" or Pee Wee,' or 'Pitchfork.'
 Next year, 1t is believed, the motor cycle and automobile fans can get to- gcther and arrange program of ben zine sports in connection with the July fiesta, that will be hum-dinger. Down in Phoenix, they have sport called sand racing, that beats any bucking broncho exhibition for spec tacularity. The riders charge bunch of deep sand, and when they get in the middle of it, their machines act up a deal worse than the fercest ot broncs. It is unusual for rider to go the one-eighth mile prescribed course without one or more hair raising spills.
 Wilson offers to ride from Phoenix to Prescott over the old road in rec ord time, beating his former mark of 3 hours and 39 minutes. He says it can be done in ever better time over the Black Canyon road.
 Another thing that will be put or next year, if arrangements can be made, is roping and tying calves from a motorcycle. This sport can be in dulged in exactly as the cowboys do it. The rules will be precisely the same, and the men will tie their calves against time
 Prescott probably has no experi- cnced race riders at present, but enough stars of national repute can be secured from Phoenix to make the competition keen.

PRESCOTT MEN ENLIST IN
 1ST AR|z.
WEAKNESS OF DRAFT IS URGED BY RECRUITING OFFICER WHOSE AIM IS TO FILL UP WITH VOLUNTEERS.
(From Sundays Daily)

"The draft has not come yet, and will not come to the individual until he is officially and personally notified by the war department that his name has been drawn" said Lieutenant An derson, First Arizona infantry, who is stationed here, yesterday. "Conse. quently, enlistment in the First Ari- zona or any other branch of the ser vice is legal until that official notiica- ton is given. It may be through a member of the board or by letter.
 Recruiting for the State unit in the Federal army has picked up consid- erably since the first of the month. Prescott contributed squad of nine men, all of whom have left for Naco to join the regiment. The nine arc William A. Pike, George w. Sane, Clyde Ivie, Everett L. Curry, Frank B. Miller. Ben Claycroft, Charles F. Green, Edgar F. Burpee and Emory .C. Walker.
 The fact that the recruits for the First Arizona regiment may be brought to Whipple barracks for training this Summer and Fall lend encouragement to local young men to join. The governor of the State has himself intimated in strong terms, that the war department may be in duced to set aside the big plant north cast of the city for that purpose. The attraction of a cool, comfortable place to train, when made known all over the State may be a strong factor in inducing men to join, rather than to await the draft The certainty that the draft will take large proportion of the unattached young males of Ari- zona and put them, willy-nilly into some branch of the service, without their being able to say boo as to their preferences, ought to act as a strong stimulus to voluntary joining, ac- cording 10 the officers, who are des- perately trying to save the good name of the State and prevent anyone from saying that Arizona's own regiment had to be filled to war strength by

the cantonment at Admission, Ala, he
will be one Of two instructors In gun
merry for the 18th division.
All of the units at Camp Ordway are
throwing themselves into the drills to-
day with vigor enthused by the an
nouncement made exclusively In The
Star last evening. that they have been
ordered to leave for the Admission can
Torment on August 7. The camp au-
thorities are doing all possible through
the War Department to get equipment
needed for the troops here in time for
distribution before they leave for
Admission. Capt. Louis c. Vogt has
been advised that some Of the equip
ment is on it's way here. He is
especially anxious to get D troop OF
cavalry equipped so that they can leave
the armory at 5th and l. streets and
complete the roster of the camp.

the cantonment at Admission. Ala They
were much interested today in reports
received from officers of other units of
the National Guard stating that or
ders have been issued to proceed Au-
gust 7.
Lieut.. Col Anton Stephan said to-
day: I'VE have had no orders, but we
do not think we will be kept here
much longer"
The official information is that such
orders have been issued for the Sd Regi-
nent to go south on August Z.
There are now about 500 men and
nfty-four officers in the 80 Regiment of
Infantry. and they have been in camp
at Fort Myer since war was declared
against Germany, in April.
There Is some speculation as to Just
where the Sd Infantry will fit in in tho
reorganization announced Saturday. A
dispatch to The Sunday Star from Sea-
grit. N. j.. where is located the head
Der. commanding the 18th Tactical d.

braces contributed organizations Of all

In the list of infantry organizations.
however. the Sd Infantry of the District
Guard has been omitted. It is believed
that this is an oversight and that the
Sd Infantry will go forward with the
other District units August I. The War
Department has previously made a
statement saying that the Sd Infantry
will go into camp with the other troops
at Admission. This statement was made
in answer to the report that the Sd In
fantry might be sent to some other en-
campment.

Count Upon the United States
TO Make Up European Deficit
Allies Are Looking to America for Sufficient Foodstms.
Wheat Continues the Base of One of
the Wars Problems.

there Is little friction. England. which
is the main shipper, acts as purcha sing
agent for all three countries, buying
through an allied board and redis-
tributing equitably. Naturally, the
allies are counting upon America to
supply the deficit in European produc-
ton. Unless present plans are modi-
fed America will deliver the surplus to
the allied purchasing board sitting in
England, which in turn will distribute
the foodstuffs as is done today
Look to America.
Not only is America expected largely
to help in feeding it's allies. but Amer
lea is also expected to administer the
knockout blow to the U-boat war
fare. and then build a merchant fleet
with which to transport the needed
| foodstuffs.
England has abandoned its meatless
day, but retains a potatoless day.
France eats no meat-in restaurants. at
least-on Mondays and Tuesdays. and
Italy is meatless Thursdays and Fri
days. That is. labor, feed and hay are
scarce. and hence cattle raising is a
problem. What feed exists is needed for
the cavalry. An Italian cab driver said,
tokingly:
Feed is so scarce that I'll soon have
to feed the carriage to the horse"
Fish is plentiful In England and
france, but scarce and expensive in
Italy. Sole is selling in Italy for near
ly 81 a pound.
Italy Uses Saccharine.
France is operating under a success
full sugar card system, which tends to
equitable distribution and prevents
boarding. Italy is making extensive
use Of saccharine, mixing it with sugar
in the proportions of sixty parts sugar
and forty parts saccharine. The result
is a mixture three times as sweet as
pure sugar and not very palatable.
Strange to say, not one Of the allies
has yet found and applied a successful
| means Of food control. Spectators are
still practically masters of every ar

the three allies, while in Rome the

blutage flour, which is mixed with
about 10 per cent cornmeal.
France seems to have the best and
the most plentiful supply Of -four, but
the rate Of consumption is such that
the stock is being rapidly depleted.
However. 1t must be remembered that,
normally. Englishmen eat little bread.
while Frenchmen eat quantities Of the
staff of life and Italians enjoy heaping
dishes of macaroni or spaghetti.
An English doctor who has practiced
long time in Rome tells me that
macaroni with salt. oil and cheese con-
stitutes a perfect food.
However. wheat continues to be the
base of one of the principal problems
of the war. Three legislatures are
more or less occupied considering the
ways and means of reaching the next
harvest.
American Shipments Reassuring.
The recent arrivals in European
waters of several American transports
loaded with grain doubtless assured
that England and France would have
bread during August next Italy is
now commencing her harvest and is
safe for the present, as far as -four is
concerned.
This regime of restrictions is the tic
that binds the three allies even while
