 WAGED BY COCHISE COUNCIL

The Coconino County Council of Defense is starting out in live shape and already is taking up many sub jects of patriotic importance. It has made announcement of a pledge that is understood to have been prepared by Assistant Attorney General Geo. M Harbin and that is being signed generally. It follows:
 q have sworn and subscribed my name that so long as I live will never, knowingly buy anything made in Germany. I will never again be guilty of purchasing German-made goods, for in so doing I must know that part of the purchase price paid by me goes to arm and equip an army of barbarians whose govern ment has no regard for treaties sol emnly entered into with other nations and thinks that treachery and deceit is commendable and that the murder poison and rape of helpless babies girls and women, a virtue This oath may be, if you desire, placed among the permanent records of my home county, Coconino.'
