 FOn DISARMAMENT
Ise8ublL:an A.P. Leased wlrs1


 MILAN, Italy, Oct. 4-America is preparing the army of disarmament, declares -Guglielmo Ferrero, the noted ltaIlan historian in a statement pub lishel by the Secolo
 The United States" asserted Signor Ferrero are preparing the new Amer ltau army to defend their most sacred interests to prevent Europe fom fall ins under a hegemony which would menace the liberty of the world; and in order to have at the peace confer ence the necessary authority to sum- mon the great states of Europe to lay down their arms.
 General disarmament after this war will be a necessity if the states of Europe do not wish to rush into bar b2! ism and anarchy America will rapidly create a vast army because she could not. without very grave danger to herself and to the equilib- riam of the whole world, neglect to make a counterpoise in the new con- tinent to the monstrOus development of armaments in the old.
 The United States were never dominated either by militarism or i'm perilhsm. They have, indeed, been governed for five years by that one of the tWo American parties which is the ID re averse from imperialism and militarism. To submit to conscription and to be sent to fight in Europe is for tine Americans a much greater sac rifice than that of any other of the peoples of the entente had to make for the defense of it's frontiers and its very existence" .,-,, Asserting that the question, what is America doing in the war, is put many times day to those who presume to know, Sisror Ferrero stated:
 Many people-and among them are some members of the mission sent by the Italian government to the United States would give more help to the allies by sending food arms and mon ey rather than soldiers. It is said that

the transport of a large army from America to Europe would require too great number of ships, and would therefore, cOmplicate still further the provisioning of the allies in Europe who are more in need of food and other necessary things than of men But those who argue on these lines show that they have not understood the very profound reasons for Amer ica'S intervention. America will help the allies with money, lood and metals, but also, and very largely, with men, because she needs today to create large army

He continued wherever the red man went and soon the United States government found it necessary to make some provision for the Indian This they did by setting aside large tracts of territory in the various states and they called these territor- ies reservations.
 These reservations, however, were hardly large enough to supply the wants and needs of the tribes, but they managed their affairs as best they could. Slowly the race has been diminishing until at the present time, the reservations have far outgrown the tribes. Thus the division.

PHOENIX, Feb. 6.-Interest in the legislative program today centered about the general appropriation bill the whole committee of the House. The bill was at first read in it's en- tirety. At present it carries appro- priations for the next two years amounting to $3,125,0OO larger than any of it's predecessors since the ad- mission of Arizona to statehood but that is accounted for by the fact that it will provide for the total expendi- lures of the state for two years, where as other general appropriations bills have been supplemented by statutory or continuing appropriations which the approprit tion committee has as sd'I"d "oIl'! be re.r,: !.

Diminishing Race Giving Up Lands 1t Has Held for Many Centuries to White Man of Sunshine Land

Because the Indians on several res ervations in Arizona have failed to utilize the lands set aside for them by the United States government, thousands of acres of reservation lands are to be turned over to the state within the near future. Assu- rance to this effect was given by Secretary Franklin K. Lane to w. A. Moeur, state land commissioner of Arizona, who returned to Phoenix this week from Washington, where he had a lengthy conference regard ing the conditions.
 The Papagoe reservation in Pima county was especially designated by the secretary of interior as one to be greatly reduced in size within the nea future. Evidence and testimony has been submitted to the department by the Arizona land office which tended to show that there was not suffi- ciert number of Indians on the Papa zoe reservation to utilize more than a small portion of the land.
 | It is stated that while the govern ment does not intend to rob the In- dians of lands which are justly theirs or which they can possibly utilize, it is thought that with the rapid growth of Arizona, the lands are much more valuable to the state for development purposes than to the Indians.
 1 No division of the lands have yet been made but the engineer of Pima county is now at Washington confer ring with commission on Indian af fairs relative to a proper division oi the Papagoe reservation.
 With announcement that several oi the Arizona Indian reservations are to be reduced in size is brought the
 realization of a rapidly diminishing picturesque race-The American In dian.

SAINT OF CANDY MAKERS
Maearius, Egyptian Man Of Fame,

they have a patron saint all their own,
but such Is the g. He Is st.
Macarlus. Macarius was adopted by
the confectioners as their protector
because he himself followed the oc-

andria before he forsook the world
and its ways and retired to Thebais
in upper Egypt to live the solitary and
self-sacriicing life Of an anchorite.
Macarius lived in the fourth CEN

remarkable tales told about the

killed a gnat that bit him, he expiated
the "crime" by spending six months
in a marsh, where great venomous
flies %abounded, subjecting himself to
such torrents that he Became a mass
