APPEALS FOR MEN

e. j. Copper, Minneapolis Manufac-
tursr. Delivers Earnest Appeal to
searehlight Club For Men for Y. M.
c. A. Work Overseas and at Canton
ments.
An earnest appeal for men for Y. NJ.
c. A. work overseas and in canton-
ments and camps was brought to a
large sized audience of Searchlight
Club members at the Y. NJ. c. A. Fri
day evening by E. ]. Copper, Mime
apolis manufacturer. Mr.. Copper, who
is vice president Of the Northwestern
Knitting Works, makers Of a ma
tionally advertised brand Of under
wear, Is one who has answered the
call. He is in charge of Y. M. C. A.
war work in the central west and is
Just now recruiting men for Y. NJ. C.
A. service. He spent many years
helping to build UP a huge business
that now employs 5000 people, but ne
left his work on twenty four hours
notice to answer the call.
Eight hundred men, Mr. Couper said,
are needed by the associations work
overseas and in the camps and canton
ments. They must be men over the
draft age and under So years of age.
They must be capable christian men
who have capacity or experience in
leadership, men who are companion
able, and who should know something
Of athletics and who can arrange
1aoAnv>chiY IN
diversions for the soldiers.
Such men are not wanted for
preachers. and preachers as preachers
are not wanted for preaching. Men are
wanted instead as workers and COM
panions, who can bring good fellow
ship and personal interest with their
work. What men at the front need
most is diversion of mind, especially
after having been in combat. 1t Is men
who can make the soldiers forget the
terrible experiences Of battle and turn
their minds to other things who are
needed in the association work.
Mr.. Copper said the associations at
home must be kept going, but that the
boards of directors should take over
the management Of local associations
as much as possible SO that the paid
officers could be released for work in
the army.
The directors Of the association held
a conference with Mr.. Copper after the
meeting to organize the board into a
recruiting committee to search out
men suitable for Y. NJ. G. A. work. Mr..
Copper is not an orator, but is deadly
in earnest and keenly alive to the de-
mands and needs Of the associat ton
work with the armies in training and
at the 'front.'

But it is not of immediate to The German armies are still in the field fighting in the territory of allies. That is matter of the first concern.

If 1t do that it is not in control and cannot deal with it because it is not in control If it has power surrender and does do so we cannot deal with it and the war must go on until the German armies have beer driven out of France and Belgium and Berlin, if necessary to crush the last of resistance

N. '. SUN RETRACTS
 LATE EDITORIAL
 ON MAJ. HAYDEN

Some time ago there appeared in The ! Republican a political advertisement containing reproduction Of an edi- | torial from the New York Sun reflect ing upon Representative Carl Hayden. Who had just been appointed a major of infantry. Since then the Sun ad- mitted that it had been misinformed as to the facts on which the editorial was l based and has printed a retraction. l The Republican feels that as it became i 3 part of the machinery for the circu-
 ation of the editorial, hereby in fair ness it prints the correction.
 Under the head of Correction as to Major Hayden" the Sun on October 19 said:
 We regret that the information | from Arizona upon which we based our | recent comment on the commissioning ! ot Representative Carl Hayden of Ari- 1 Hona as major in the army now ap- pears to have been incorrect and in complete, although furnished us from 1 sources that should have been fully trustworthy. Thus we have unWi:ting- 1 ly misrepresented and criticised Major Hayden, wherefore we desire to make amends and correct the error, as the
 kNenng Sun strives above all to be accurate and fair, particularly to those with whose political views we are not In agreement.
 We are told that Major Hayden's commission was an eleventh hour ap- pointment the implication being that 1t was for political effect Instead. his application for an army appointment. it is now said. was made over a year ago and was approved by the presi- dent on August II, 1917. Moreover, Major Hayden has served ten years in the First Arizona infantry (National Guard, from 1908 to 1913, enlisting as D private and rising to the rank of ma l.
 lor. He Is also an expert rifleman having been a -'omber of tho Arizona
 rifle team for four years.
 Furthermore. his appointment is
 not an arm chair place or a staff DO
 sition but with the infantry. He is now at a training camp. and hopes to reach France before the fighting is
 Over Under these circumstances his
 personal patriotism seems beyond question and we are pleased to make
 this full correction of our unintentiona,
 mistake"

GALL ALL TO OBSERVE
 F|REPREVENT|ONDAY
 SET FUR NOVEMBER

Fire Prevention Day which ordin- arily is observed on October 9, the an niversary of the great Chicago fire, was postponed this year because it came during the campaign for the fourth Liberty loan.
 That important matter out of the way, Fire Prevention Day" has been reset for November ?. It will be ob- served throughout the United States as a general clean-up day on which to remove rubbish and other matter which aids in disastrous fires.
 By proclamation issued yesterday by Governor Hunt, November ? will also be observed in Arizona as Fire Pre- Vention Day"
 The proclamation calls upon the schools, newspapers, churches and civic bodies to make a special effort along the line of education in fire preven ton on that date, but owing to the fact that nearly all of these activities are suspended by the influenza epidemic and will probably not be reopened by the date set, very little can be done this year in fire prevention education.
 The governors proclamation follows:
 The fourth Liberty loan for six bill lion dollars has gone over the top within the time set by the government, and Arizona, as usual was in the list of those states which raised their full quota The annual interest on those bonds will be approximately $250, ,000,- 900. Coincidentally, the national fire loss for one year approXimates that same amount and if it were possible to eliminate that loss, the annual in terest on the fourth Liberty loan should i be saved for the nation. While, of | ic ip1OOcib1a fo aliro n fa | that entire loss it is true that much of 1 it could be eliminated.
 Fire causes enormous destruction | of grain and other foodstuff, as we'll as to cotton, lumber and all varieties of war supplies. Fire cripples indus | trial institutions engaged upon war l orders to far greater extent than is generally realized. Fire prevention therefore, becomes a particular duty oi every citizen.
 In accordance with the national pol icy and uon the request of Secretary | McAdoo, November is designated as FIRE PREVENTION DAY for the state of Arizona, and the cooperation of newspapers, churches, civic bodies and the school system is urged in order that the day may be devoted to firt prevention education.
