The "lollar a Year Men


 We are beginning to hear jeering remarks about the dollar a year men, Reference is made to the experts in finance and men successful in other lines who at the beginning of the war laid aside their own affairs and offered their services t9 the government These teers come from politicians who resent any public service that is not paid for; who believe that he places filled by the "Goar year men are places which should be occupied by deserving partisans irawng fat salaries
 The occasion for these jeers has been furnished by complaints that preparations are not moving forward as well they should move. But for none of these things has the blame been traced to the dollar a year men," they have had nothing to do with any bungling laundering that has been discovered. The break down of our shpbuiding operations some months ago, the clay ir other preparation all these things are followed back to the incompetence of regularly paid officials to the in adequacy of a system which in vogue long before The dollar year men" were called in.
 It is the dollar a year men" who made successes of the Liberty Loan and Red Cross drives, who making a success of the Thrift campaign. Without them and without the cooperation which they cured the government would have made miserable failure of these essential movements. We may shud der to think how these campaigns would have ended if they had been managed by men who had shown no other capacity for the than their ability to get out the vote for the candidates of dominant party and who would have regarded their jobs not as opportunities fr patriotic service but as proper re wards for political activity.

 The Irish sentiment regarding the is described by lady who made a journey across that country. The train filled with men who were going a coursing match. The talk almost exclusively about sporting matters. Only the conver sation turned upon the war and that when threw down paper he had been reading and remarked with an air of exultation that "our British friends" had been defeated at two points.
 In her journey over Ireland the lady said she found the people living in comfort, if in luxury, i4 contrast with the privations to which the well-to-do classes in England subject without complaint The food restrictions which have been placed upon the people of England have not been extended to Ireland for the same reason that conscription is applied there.
 The need of power has become urgent that Premier Lloyd George has not hesitated to make known the countrys desperate situation to the world. And unless it is speedily relieved by the United States, the time will probably when Great Britain will cast away its fear of Irish rebellion and apply conscription, if for other pur pose, to silence the growing murmuring at home.

Miss Gilchrist pointed out the fact that many more women were compelled to seek employment since the heads of families had been called to the colors and urged that the club women get behind the movement for nursery that these women might know that their children were being well cared for while they were at work. The speaker called attention to the fact that the need of such an institution had been felt here before and its outgrowth was the Detention Home.

The U-Boat Toll

The figures of last Wednesday night show a marked falling in the destruction of British ship ping for the ending rather the week reported January G. The figures which published every Wednesday represent the result of the week ending on the previous Sunday that the losses given in the dispatches Wednesday night showing six ships of more than 1900 tons destroyed up to the night of January G. exactly one-third the number sunk the previous reported week.
 The effects of the submarine warfare have been announced weekly for forty-five weeks and the age for the Whole time has been about twenty-five ships a week. sixteen of them being of 1900 tons nore The week with the lowest losses was that ending November when only vessel of 1900 tons or more only five of the less than 1900 tons sunk total of six The highest total that of the week ending April P when fifty-fve vessels were sunk forty of the greater tonnage and fifteen of less than 1900 tons The following week fiftyone vessels were sunk, thirty eight of them being 1900 tons over.
 For only one week since the middle of September, have the losses come up to average just stated That was the week ending october 21 when the sink ngs were seventeen of the larger craft and eight of the smaller total of twenty-f But for the weeks of November 25 and December respectively the general average was nearly reached, the losses bering twenty-one in each instance. For the weeks of November 1S December and December 16 the total losses were seventeen in each case.
 From the foregoing it will be that the ruth less U-boat warfare inaugurated last February is taking ever diminishing toll. For the six weeks April May the sinkngs amounted to the sickening of 230 ships and this enough to justify the proud boast of von Trptz that Great Britain would soon be starved or brought to her knees.
 But for the last ten weeks the total has been less than 150 ships, eighty fewer ships than sunk dur inr inc six week Deriod above mentioned when the greatest destruction wrought. And this explains the recent modification of claims by the German admiralty which, however, further explains that the ieason there have not been sinkings is because there not many ships left to sink still that claim is not borne out by the reports of sangs and arrivals at British ports and it is refued in part by the reports of the greater number of unsuccessful attacks upon British vessels
 While it is pitifu that the destruction still goes at a reduced rate, the balance has been so readjusted to leave doubt that the submarine campaign is being slowly overcame, and have good to believe that when America is able to make It's contribution to the worlds shipping the futity of this destruction will become apparent even to the Germans; that it will appear to them then that has more bearing the outcome of the than the Zeppelin raids England

When the new Boston store throws its doors op5n tG the pJSlic in the near future there will be new mem- Der of the executive staff of the big establishment $. W. Marto, for ten years one of the best known business men of Arizona, and for the past four years superintendent and advertising manager of Korricks last evening severed his connection with that house to assume the position of superintend- ent and advestising manager of the Boston store. Incidental with this comes another of the promotion of Manager E. C. Carter to the newly created position of merchandise man ager, which means that hereafter the man who has in such a large measure dlrected the destinies of the Boston Store for the past five years in every department, will hereafter devote him. self exclusively in the selection and buying of goods for the. greater store.
 That l. Diamond, proprietor of the Boston Store, should have been sue cessful in securing the services of Manager Marto, whose ability is well known in business circles throughout Arizona, has been productive of con- gratulations extended to MT. Diamond ever since it became known several days ago that Marto was to be added to the executive staff of the big store. That this will mean the bringing to the Diamond establishment the full 1 benefit of years Of successful eXperi- ence and accomplishments, is the con- sensus of opinion among those aware of the change.
 It was ten years ago that s. w. Marto came to Arizona to assume the managership of Goldwater's. More than four years later, after having un- questionably demonstrated his ability he accepted a position with Steinfeld's at Tucson, which office he relinqushed
 to return to Phoenix as superintendent and advertising manager of Korricks 1 when that concern moved into it's 1 present modern home
 l Hardly had he become attached to the staff of Korrickh' in an executive position, before he undertook and car
 ried to a successful conclusion the or 1 ganiZation of the korricks' Benevolent 1 society, the membership of which was
 composed exclusively of employees oi
 the big establishment. In more ways
 than one this organization served tc
 bring about closer cooperation and
 loyalty among the scores of employees both men and women and to create g 1 spirit of mutual interest in the welfare
 of fellow employees. Today the society remains monument to the foresight 1 of Superintendent Marto.
 In his position of superintendent ant
 advertising manager MT Marto has had general supervision of the display.

Mrs. Katherine Phillips Edson.
 The first woman in the country to hold the important post of industrial mediator is Mrs. Katherine Phillips Edson O. California, who has recent ly been appointed to that work in her state by Secretary Baker. She will act as the federal mediator in any industrial dispute which may arise in government contracts, as in the mak- ing of army and navy clothing and so on. Mrs. Edson is also an executive officer in the industrial welfare con- mission of California.

ing of all goods, of the advertising and of the general merchandising system. Various features which have won and held patrons for the big store, have been due largely to the initiative and ingenuity of MT. Marto. His bi-month- ly talks to employees, in which he set forth ideas on salesmanship, courtesy and service, resulted in the attainment of phenomenal efficiency.
 While it will be three of four weeks before the Boston Store will be estab- lished in it's new home, MT. Marto goes to the concern at this time in or der to have general supervision of the installation of the great and varied stock of merchandise which is already beginning to arrive. It gives him the opportunity he needs to thoroughly or ganiZe the force he will require for the handling of the business of the new and greater Boston Store.
 MT. Marto has not confined his ac- tivities exclusively to the managership of korricks' during the years he has been with that concern. He has found time to indulge in his one pastime, that of painting, for he is no mean artist with the brush. Some of his paintings, particularly those dealing with Arizona subjects have won recog- ns~ion at the hands of well known critics. Two of his paintings still hang in the Goldwater rest room.
 He has lectured before such organ nations as the Neighborhood club, the Phoenix Advertising club, the Mesa Commercial club, the Phoenix Business Girls club and others. His subjects have had to do with business and busi- ness methods.
 Manager Carter of the Boston Store assumes the position of merchandise
 manager. He has been with the store for five years coming here from a l large coast concern. He has brought l about wonderful degree of efficiency both in methods and in employees. He has seen the store outgrow its quar- ! ters twice, as the result of work to-
 wards which he has contributed so 1 largely his loyalty and business ideas. Asked yesterday for an outline of any new features of the new Boston | Store, MT. Carter said there would be
 so many it would be impossible to emu
 merate them. He said, however, that l he believed the most popular would be | the establishment of an "Economy
 Basement SaIesroom." He said this
 department would carry larger stock than many stores and that it would be
 true to it's name. He expressed him.
 self as confident that the addition of
 Mr. Marto to the executive staff would
 result in the creation of an opportunity for team play as between himself and Mir. Marto that would result in direct
 benefit to the new Boston Store.
