RED GROSS CAMPAIGN

The Red Cross Campaign from May 2Oth to May 27th closed in blaze of glory for the Williams chapter. The chapters quota, based upon the population of the chapters jur- isdiction, was placed by the District Committee at $2,0OO. Many thought this assessment too high. The town of Will Hams has a population of less than 1900, while the only Branch of the Williams Chap ter, Grand Canyon, is estimated by the postmaster there to have a population of less than 250. It was thought, therefore, by many that an assessment of $500 would have been proper. With the idea of appealing to the Pacific Division for reduc- ton of Williams quota to $1,- 500, l.. $. Williams, chairman of the second War Fund Cam paign, attended the Pacific Di- vision Chairman's meeting in Los Angeles on May 9th. After arriving in Los Angeles and hearing appeals from various chairmen there to raise their quotas, MT. Williams confesses that he was ashamed to ask for a reduction, especially in view of the fact that not a single chairman did so, and he return ed home confident that the same spirit would prevail in Ar izona that manifested itself throughout California and Nev- ada. To what extent he was correct in his surmise, the result of the campaign in Williams shows, for not only was the quota of $2,OOO raised, but it was raised over two and one half times the total amount being $5, 5,O18.21, contributed by 1929 persons. When the large alien population of Williams and the Grand Canyon is taken into consideration, this showing is remarkable one. A full list of contributors is posted in the window of w. c. Ritten- houses store.
 Everyone in Williams, Grand Canyon, and in fact the whole of the western division of Coco nino County with but a few ex- captions did their full duty. Too much praise cannot be bestow- ed upon the committees, team captains and solicitors engaged in the work. They were per fectly organized, and there was not team captain or solicitor who did not exceed the quota assigned to them to be raised. Deserving of special mention was the work accomplished at Grand Canyon, Red Lake, Pit man Valley and Garland Prai- rie. The Canyon more than tripled it's quota, while the oth- CTS went far over double the quota assigned them.
 | Altogether the campaign was One of the most successful waged in the state, and every one connected with it in any ca pacity whatever is to be congra- tulated upon their efforts.

Aside from telegraph and telephone bills, the total expense contrac- ted for the campaignwas $6.5O consisting of $2.OO for printing and $4.5O for cloth and ropes for a banner. Everything else in connection with the cam paign was donated.
 In extending my thanks to all who assisted in making the campaign the great financial success that it was, l scarcely know where to begin. There were so many who freely gave their time, services, and talents that I am almost afraid to try to mention them for fear that someone may possibly be over looked. However, l feel that especial thanks are due to the following: MT. R. M. Reese for the donation of the use of the Sultana Theatre on the op- ening night of the campaign; MT. George/L l.. Barnes and the members of his orchestra for the splendid music furnished at the Grand Canyon; Mrs. c. w. Elliott, Mrs. R. M. Scott, Mrs. J. w. Lee and MT. Bing- ham, for the excellent vocal music rendered by them at the meetings in Williams and Grand Canyon; MT. J. H. Pad dock and the ladies and gentle men who conceived and suc- cessfullX carried out the idea of a cabaret entertainment; MT. w. M. Hughes for the use of two automobiles for two trips to the Grand Canyon on two different days; MT. F. M. Plat ten for the use of his autome- bile for three days at Putnam Valley; MT. K. L. Hughes for the use of his automobile for two trips to Grand Canyon; MT. R. A. Nickerson for the use of his automobile during the week of the campaign; Baumann- Kinds for painting a campaign banner; Judge A. Sine for the construction of the Red Cross contribution box used at the postofice, the Williams News for the publicity and advertis- ing space used by the commit tee; the Odd Fellows Lodge for donation of the Williams Opera House for one night, and to Rev. c. V. LaFontaine and the Four Minute men who so effec- tivey presented the cause of the Red Cross to various audi ences during the campaign.
 To tn evarious cnnapaign com mittees, team captains and so- licitors not only extend my but also congratula- tions upon the termination of one of the most successful cam paigns waged in the interest of a noble cause in the history of the state. It has been through your loyalty and efforts that the Williams Chapter of the Amer ican Red Cross has been placed high on the honor roll of the Pacific Division chapters.

POTATO GROWER
 FOR GOVERNOR

Hon. T. H. Cureton of Coco nino County will be a candidate for governor on the republican primary ticket. He is mem Der of the house of representa- tives and resides just outside of Williams where he is engaged in farming. From one end of the state to the other Professor Cureton is known as the best potato grower in Arizona and his fame, like that of Governor Pingree, of Michigan, has gone abroad. He makes three tuberS grow where but one grew be- fore and he raises larger pota- toes at that than does the aver age farmer.
 It is unusual for the republi- cans to run a man for office who works with his hands and has but a small bank account.
 Prof. Cureton is under con tract to teach in the Williams school as principal, this fall and winter.
 There are a large number Of republicans who want to get rid of the industrial troubles and they realize if Tom, Camp bell is even nominated it will cause uneasiness because he made such a failure before. The real patriots of Arizona do not want either Hunt or Campbell to run this year. Of course Gov. Hunt has no desire to run and it is up to the Republicans to remove the temptation from Tom Campbell.
 Prof. Cureton is a highly ed ucated farmer, being a gradu- ate of the University of Kan sas, the University of Missouri and a graduate of Harvard Un- iversity. He has also been ad- imitted to the bar as a lawyer He wears a hat with a modest brim and does not cater to the movies.-Phoenix Messenger

FORMER DIST. ATTY.
 FOR OFFICE GEN.
Prescott, Arizona,
 May 29, 1918

May IS, 1SIc Hon. c. H. Rutherford,
 Senate Chamber,
 Phoenix, Arizona.
 My dear Senator:
 Our mutual friend, Judge James Loy, called on me yester- day, and announced his candi- dacy for Attorney General of Arizona. He stated to me that you had pledged him your un- alloyed support; that you stated to him that he, above all other men in Arizona, was the man for the place, etc, etc. Judge Loy also informed me that it was your wish to learn my atti- tude in this matter, and that you desired letter from me on the subject.
 Like your good self, 1 am am satisfied that Judge Loy is the man of the hour the Moses if you please, to lead us out of bondage to the promised land !! ''No pent up Utica confines him ;" no musty precedents con- trol him. High on his helm celestial Iightnings play!" . As a criminal lawyer he has few, if any, equals, at least west of the Missouri River. His re- cent defense of "Mosseye," an Apache Indian, charged with murder, was the delight and admiration of the Bar. In re- cognition of his heroic efforts in behalf of "Mosseye," I am in formed he has been elected all honorary Sagamore of the Ton to Apache Tribe.
 His transcendent legal abili- ties have been demonstrated on many hard fought fields. Right now he is engaged in prescott ing, in an equity suit, one of the wealthiest men of the State, to recover for the alleged rightful owner real estate and other property aggregating in value over $10O,000.OO. A few years ago, some of his political ene- mics made the assertion that Judge Loy had gone to seed; that he could not go over the top, etc.," but from what I have said, and speak from the re- cord, you will agree with me that such assertions are ground less.
 Judge Loy is an old-timer,. in fact, the dean of Hassayam- pers. Nearly forty-fve years ago, in his youthful days. he left Missouri with his parents for Arizona. This was in h. dian days. He was three months in crossing the plains, and many were the exploits the exploits in which he figured on that long journey, He climbed nts., swam rivers and fought savage men and wild beasts. For three months he subsisted on the meat of the buffalo which he cooked on fires pro- duced by buffalo chips. The hoot of the owl and the hiss of the rattlesnake became music to his ears. During the noc- turnal hours, with the ground for his bed and the sky for his covering, his slumbers were of ten interrupted by the yells of the redskins. as we'll as by the

Long Delay Weakens
German Po.uer, Is
VieU in Washington,
iRM The Assoctated Press

WASHINGTON, May 22-The long
delay in renewal of the German drive
in Picardy and Flanders is varjously
accounted for by officials Of the War
Department, among whom it has come
to be subject of animated discussion.
The most generally accepted explain
alton is that German divisions engaged
in the first phases of the battle were
shattered so badly tnat it has taken
time to restore them to fighting form.
It is apparent, however, that many
officers feel that something deeper
than this underlies the lull. They re-
gard it as certain that only some seri-
Gus internal condition would cause the
German high command to lose the ad-
vantage gained by the first rush of the
great offensive.
The value of pressing forward with
OUT pause, once an offensive effort is
mace, and taking. full advantage Of the
momentum gain in initial successes. is
well recognized. 40

The following resume Of fighting on

"The situation on the Western front

accounted for by the fact that as the
Germans can no longer create sur.

very much in Britain's favor. One bri-
gadc, Royal Flying Corps, brought
down 'twenty-one enemy machines
without any losses of their own. From

distinct feature, a form of warfare
in which we have shown considerable
superiority. Every night we have had
