 This country needs now to drive home into every mind in America the conviction that there should be no peace except peace dictated by America and it's Allies in Berlin and Vienna and Constantinople; and that this peace shall only be considered when these countries have been beat en to their knees, when they sue for peace on our terms, of the death pen atty for the leading criminals and an indemnity in money which to the ex- tent that money can be made to do so will repay to Belgium and France and Servia and Roumania and Italy, all of the wreck and ruin which has DSSh WlOuShI, dHu Wh1Sh 0hdll 4CUoy to England and America the full amount of money expended in putting down these highwaymen, these free booters, these pirates, these outragers these wou1d-be world looters, these thieves and scoundrels who have mur dered millions, who have sorrowed hundreds of millions merely for their own individual financial profit. By the side of what they have done Germ any seems infinitely superior to hell itself in deviltry and to have usurped Sata'power.

He visited Arizona recently and was in Douglas for some time during the absence of MT. Thomp son, who was i'll on the coast. The zona will wish him well during his term of service to his country.
 No Construction Work Now.
 MT. Douglas said that in all of the enterprises the Phelps Dodge corpora. tion all manner of construction bad been discontinued because of the in. ability to secure needed material to carry them. Considerable building yet unfinished at Tyrone in New Mexi co will stand still until after the war At Bisbee the construction of the con centrator by the Copper Queen branch had been stopped and nothing more would be done there now. Only some grading is being done on the Sacra mento hill where the ore is to be mined for the new concentrator when it is ready, and so on at other enter prises of the company.
 Regarding the possibility of hay ing the work of paving the road tc Bisbee, now under contract, com pleted, MT.
