SUNDAY IS SET
As LOYAL TY DAY

Arizona residents will be given an
opportunity to display their American
ism and loyalty to Uncle Sam Sunday
april S, which has, by proclamation,
been set aside by Governor Thomas E.
Campbell as Loyalty Sunday"
On this day, all residents of the
state are asked TO assemble at their
respective places of worship and SOL
EMMY offer to Almighty God the
pledge of loyalty to their country.
The true American spirit, however
is already being manifested through
out the city. From private homes, pub
lie institutions, various business blocks
and from other conspicuous places.
"Old Glory" can be seen to wave ma
jestically.
People have been stirred to the war
spirit by the recent developments at
Washington and they are taking this
means of showing that they are united
ly behind the action taken by congress
on the recommendation Of President
Wilson. AT the local recruiting station,
is was also evident that citizens were
actually preparing themselves for an
active war issue. Many applications
were filed within the past "a hours for
army positions.

bAbb|TT-POLSON
ARE TO HANDLE
TROY TRA|LERS

A contract was closed yesterday
afternoon whereby the Babbitt- Poll
son company becomes state distribu
tors for the Troy trailer, regarded as
one of the best of its kind on the mar
ket. This is another fine line of auto
equipment which will hereafter play an
important part in Babbitt Poison ae-
tivities throughout the state.
Ike S. Byrum, factory representa-
tive of the Troy Trailer Sales COM
pnny closed the contract with the Bah
bitt- Poison company. He was a
Phoenix guest but n few hours before
he had entered into negotiations with
the well known concern.
The Troy Trailer Sales company is a
subsidiary of the Troy Wagon Works
company OF Troy, n. Y The latter
concern was founded 81 years ago and
started in the manufacture of farm
wagons. Later. the company built and
developed the Troy dump wagon, con-
sidered the peer to all similar wagons.
This dump wagon was awarded gold
medals at both the San Diego and
Panama expositions. The company
builds and sells IS per cent of all slow
moving tractor reversible wagons in
the United States.
In 1914, after two years of expert
market IL high speed auto truck trailer,
both reversible and non-reversible
These trailers are now manufactured
IN capacities of from one and one half
tons to five tons. In 1914. the sales
aggregated $4,000. in 1915, $433, 900,
and 1916. s1,007, 148, showing steady
and consistent increase. The sales for
1917 to date total 100000 it is stated.
Mr.. Byrum is the oldest representa-
tive of the Troy Trailer Sales company
in point of service. He was named
special representative OF the company
in September. 1915, and is now direct
ing the establishment of agencies in
all sections of the country.
Previous to his appointment as spe-
cial representative, he served many
years as a salesman for the Troy
Wagon company. His success has
been absolute inasmuch as he has yet
to find a territory in which he is un-
able to establish connections with
some substantial concern.

FELT kEEN[Y
IN THE EAST

The high cnst g ,is-i.:- is indeed an
acute complaint in the eastern and
middle western states, in fact so much
50 that various cities have introduced
novel methods to reduce high quota
tons on certain products. The results
obtained in ALPHABETICALLY every instance
have been more than effective-they
have been astonishing.
In one middlewestern city, prices of
potatoes and onions went 50 high that
few families could afford these es-
sential articles Of food. Potatoes, at
one time during the winter. sold for
$500 the bushel. while onions were
equally as high. correspondingly
The city sealer of this city then de-
vised a plan whereby wholesalers and
retailers would be forced to reduce
quotations. 1t was decided to issue
proclamation requesting all persons to
refrain from eating either vegetable
The proclamat ton met With such APP
prevail on the part Of the public that
potatoes and onions were not even
served in hotel and restaurants.
Within 4 period of five days, the
price of potatoes was reduced $1.25 the
Il
of 80 cents the bushel. The embargo
continued, however, for an indefinite
period with a resultant steady decrease
in the price of the two commodities.
In another city, bread and milk was
so expensive that the poorer closes
or the ones who most needed these
commoditieS-couid not afford them.
The city officials thereupon undertook
TO handle the supply of the community
The results were almost unbelievable.
Reductions OF more than 35 per cent
Were effected within d comparatively
short period.
The fuel situation has also been a
serious problem the past winter. due
partially to freight conditions and par
| tally to the severity of the weather.
In many cities. officials took charge OF
the distribution of fuel with highly sat
isfactOry results.
