HOUSE MILITARY LEADER
MAKES COMPARISON

Congressman Julius Kahn of
San francisco, ranking mem
Der Of the House Committee on
Military Affairs and the great
military leader of the House
of Representatives, and father
Of the draft law, stopped in
Flagstaff last week en- route to
his home from Washington.
Congressman Kahn was
shown a copy of President
Wilson's telegram to George
Babbitt, commencing the 10y
date for reelection to Con-
gress and just commissioned a
major in the army, when his
defeat seemed imminent.
A broad smile illumined
Congressman Kahn's face when
he read the telegram purport-
ed to have been sent to Bah
bitt. He said:
1T may be presumptious for
me, a mere Congressman, to
question the statement of the
President Of the United States,
but, as | recall, the record
shows that Hayden voted ex-
actly the same as Congressman
Slayden Of Texas. | would sug-
gest that you ask Congressman
Slayden what kind of a letter
he received from the President
which caused him to withdraw
from the Congressional race in
his district down in Texas"

In 1913 Judge Jayne located
at Casa Grande, in this state,
and has resided there since.
He was admitted to practice in
the Supreme Court of Arizona

til the end of that year, when
he resigned upon the decision
seating Hunt as Governor. He

EXCHANGE DAY

In each and every month
there should be an exchange
day in Snowflake. Try it and
see how it will help all com
mercial and social matters. 1t
viii eliminate forever all fric-
ton between town and rural
districts. Such a day would
give our citizens a splendid
opportunity to talk over agri-
cultural and livestock matters,
discuss topics of public inter
est. A public day would do
more to cement our friendship
and make our people happy
and contented than any one
thing that we could inaugu-
rate. Be it, therefore, in or
der that all the people get to-
gether at Snowflake one a
month, beginning with the
first Monday in November,
bringing everything they have
to sell or trade. Special en-
tertainment will be prepared
for our guests. The merchants
should give special prices on

the splendid climate of the
Southern States accounts for
the favOritism shown that sec
ton of the country. UnfOrtu-
nately for this argument, the
facts do not sustain it. For
example, Californias climate is
quite as noted for its mildness
in winter as is the climate of
Alabama. California's climate
is far more healthful than Ala
bama's, the latter being full of
malaria.
California received SI4,98o,-
$50 in appropriations for army
camps and other military
works. Alabama received $6I,-
386,145, or two-fifths as much
as the total appropriations
given to Northern and Western
States.
California subscribed $685.

Liberty Loans, or "a times
what the government spent on
camps in California. Alabama
subscribed only $38,795,35o to
those two loans, or less than
two-thirds as much as the gov
ernment had spent in that
state.
But Alabama is the home Of
Chairman Dent of the House
Committee on Military Affairs.
Then there is Texas. 1t is
notorious for its "northers,"
the worst of blizzards, in win
tetr. In summer it is the hot
est state. It's Rio Grande bor-
der is a waste of sand. Malaria
fever is the plague Of every
camp in Texas. All told, it
has probably the most inhos-
pitable assortment Of weather
of any state. Yet Texas was
handed six army camps, eleven
aviation camps, one Concentra-
tion camp and one repair de
pot, with total appropriations
Of S32,652,844.1I. These plums

MILLIONS ARE
DUMPED IN SOUTH
Domination by South Clearly
Shown by Appropriations
for CantOnmentS.

In passing out the appropri-
ations for army camps and can
tonments the Democratic adj
ministration gave S49o, 3o6,99I.-
"a to sixteen states south of
the Mason and Dixon line and
only 2oo,559,222.oI to all the
other states.
The division Of the original
appropriations by states was as
follows.

j.
These original appropriations
have recently been increased
by over$I o5,ooo,ooo, making a
total of approximately $780,
100000 that has been or is be-
ing spent by the United States
on camps, cantonments and
military plants in the South.
A cantonment was located at
Louisville, KY, at an initial
cost Of s8,375,279. This can
tonment was located there in
spite Of the recommendation of
two military commissions to
the contrary. Army authorities
recommended the use of Fort
Benjamin Harrison at Indian
apolis, where the government
already owned ample ground
for a cantonment and where
there was in existence quarters
large enough to accommodate
vast number of troops. In
dianapOlis was also admirably
adapted for the site Of a can
torment by reason of it's rail
road facilities and a belt line.
Louisville is the home dis
trict of Representative Sherley,
Democratic chairman of the
House Appropriations Commit
tee. Louisville got the $685.
27o Cantonment and Indianap-
oils, the choice of the military
experts, got a $582,ooo. repair
depot. On October a last it
was announced that Louisville
was to bet another canton
ment, with an initial appro-
priation of $2o,ooO,Ooo. This
gives Representative Sherlcy
two environments in his district
involving the expenditure Of
nearly S3o,ooo,ooo of the gov
ernment's money.

UP TO THE CRY OFFICIALS


v HE old proverb says it is
W profitless to cry over
spilled milk but that same
proverb says nothing against
looking after the quality of the
milk that has not been spilled.
We cannot now change the
fact that delay in extending
the water system to Chaplish
springs has made it necessary
to take some water from the
river at Thorn Hollow but the
city can take measures to safe
guard the quality of the water
at that point.
The steps necessary to this
end are well known. The city
has authority to act and GER
tainly the emergency is suffi-
ciently great to call for speedy
and decisive action so as to stop
the dumping of sewage into the
river at Bingham Springs or At
any other place above the
source of supply.
Oar city authorities face a
real sduty-a duty that is in
creased by the fact that natl
onal needs at this time cali for
every precautiOn. against dis
ease.
