are now stationed at Alex andria, La. In a letter re- ceived by his parents in Hol-
 brook a few days ago, Mr. Flanigan stated that outside of the disagreeable weather
 in Louisiana, he is well
 pleased with army life. The
 training camp at Alexandria
 is one of the largest in the
 country and in a short time
 every branch of the service will be represented there.
 Judge and Mrs. Sidney Sapp, and daughter Gwen dolyn, returned this morn ing from an extended visit in the east. They spent some time with relatives in h. diana; returning from h. diana they stoppep for a time in Missiouri, later go- ing to Oklahoma, where they visited relatives for a few weeks.
 B. c. Lennon, who en- listed in the automobile corps of the U. s. army se- veral months ago, received orders yesterday to leave for San Francisco within three days, to report for service. He expects toleave Holbrook Saturday night for San Fran cisco, and will probably be sent from there to the train ing station at Alexandria, La.
 Will J. Flake, of Snowflake. arrived in Holbrook Monday morning from Prescott, where he assisted Fair Commissioner Lar son in displaying NavaJo eoun- tvs exhibit at the Northern Ari- zona fair last week. Mir. Flake informed the News that this county's exhibit this year far ex- celled any previous years exhi- bit, and he is satisfied that much good advertising was done the county's resources byi 1t.
 Miss Fay Hey arrived in Hol- brook Tuesday from Oklahoma. where she had been engaged in business since she left Holbrook several months ago. She has resumed the position she former ly held in the Holbrook Mercan- tile Co.,, and is glad to get back to real live town. The many patrons of this store will be glad to find Miss Hey at her former place, where she was so success ful in making friends and in at tending to their wants.
 A mistake occurred in last week s issue of the News in the publication of the chairmen of committees appointed by Mrs. Julia Braam to assist Tn the h. berty Loan campaign. Mrs. Braam, as chairman of the Wo- mans Liberty Loan committee of Navajo county. appointed ele- ven chairmen of subcommittee to assist her. The News in advertently omitted the names of Mrs. Charles Osborne, Mrs. D. J. Thomas and Mrs. John Flanigan. The proofreader is to blame for the mistake, and no one else.
 Probably the youngest owner of Liberty Bond in the United States resides with his parents in Holbrook. This is Frank Col sarry IT,. 8-months old son of MT. and Mrs. Frank Golsarry. The young bond owner is too young to realize the value of his possession, but in after years he will come to know that he has a valuable property and he will further realize that his parents are loyal citizens of the United States.

Crowded and Inefficient Living
Conditions Near Industries
Are Examined.
BECOMES NATIONAL ISSUE
Government Housing Commit
tee to Be Established to Urge
Civic Boards and Others to
Build Dwellings.

Washington, Oct 5-Crowded liv-
ing conditions which are hampering
war work i'll Industrial centers were
presented to the War Defense CouE
cirs advisory commission with view
to formulating some policy by which
quick relief may be afforded either
through actual government financing
of community home building or aiding
private enterprise.
The situation is particularly acute
in many cities, notably Bridgeport
Conn, Akron, o., Newport News and
Norfolk, Va. The commission was
told by Philip Hiss, New York ar
chitect, and chairman o. the coun-
ciPs subcommittee on housing, that
immediate relief is necessary as ad-
ditional worlmen required on war
contracts can not find homes for
themselves and their families
President Wilson's attention was
called to the situation several weeks
ago anu lie requested immediate IN
vestigation and recommendation
Suggestions considered today EN-
braced the establishment of an Off
cial government housing commission
TO supervise. government Investments
in dwelling houses, and the urging
upon manufacturers, chambers of
commerce, civic associations and To-
cal capitalists of construction of
workmen's homes.
Officials of industrial plants and
welfare workers will be heard tomor-
row.
Conditions in Washington, where
the great influx of war workers has
caused a tremendous demand for ho.
tel and lodging accommodations and
for rented houses and apartments,
may be considered later by the COM
mission.

Near Close of Great War Ses=
siOn-LaFO!lette Silent.

Washington, Oct. five hours
discussion will be allowed in the Sen
ate tomorrow OF disloyalty charges
prferred against Senator La Toilette.
The investibation OF the charges
may furnish 4 dramtic climax for the
great war session OF Congress.
The Wisconsin senator's recent
speech at St Paul will probably fur
nish the principal cause for the Sen
tie committees investigation.

al comes up for enactment,
The formal preliminary inquiry in
20 Senator La Follette's St Paul
speech. which it has been charged is
lisloyal to the government, was or
dered by the Senate committee or
elections and privileges.
This was followed by the appoint.
ment OF subcommittee of five mem
bers which was directed to make
report at the December session
The committee was given the au-
thOrity to inQuire into tie correct
ness of the st. Paul speech as quoted
aud also as to the correctness. OF the
statements made therein
The subcommittee was authorized
to request the Senate TO make pro
visions for all necessary eXpendi-
lures. which indicated that there
would be formal hearings, with wit
1esses and perhaps sitting at St
Paul during the conduct OF the hear
ing.
The resolution asking the Senate
for this authority was scheduled to
be presented to the Senate at the

sharp debate over it when it comes
up.

not been definitely decided upon, it
is believed that the subcommittee will
ask Senator La Toilette 10 state
whether the copy of the st. Paul
speech it has is as he delivered it.
1t also proposes to Summon William
j. Bryan to question him as regard
ing the correctness of La Foiltete

its cargo.
Senator La Toilette refused to com
ment upon the committees action.

LOCAL SITUATION.

A number OF officials representing
the Southern Railway arrived in this

The committee, which arrived in
two private cars, spent the entire day
reviewing the local situation and with
particular notice of the shipbuilding
industries which are rapidly assuming
such large proportions here
Nearly every plant was visited with
view of determining the best rail
way facilities required in Brunswick
While it twas not possible for the com

this territory and to provide for the
future interests Of the Southern Rail

The step was taken with the ap-
proval of all the allies. 1t follows
closely Great Britain's declaration o,

In statement accompanying the
announcement the exports board
makes it clear that the present abb

neutrals is not necessarily permanent
