URGES THE IMPROVEMENT OF
NEEDLES-PARKER ROAD.
(Needles Nugget. }

J. D. Mathews, manager of the Par
ker Motor company and Ford agency,
spent last Saturday in Needles after a
trip over some of the motor roads
between Needles and Phoenix,
searching out the bad places along
the route, having made notes and
estimates of the work and expense
necessary to put the Needles to Bouse
division in good or fair condition for
the winter tourist travel to or, from
he coast via Needles, Parker or
Phoenix in preference to the regular
Old Trails route over "the hump"
yia Kingman, Williams and Flagstaff.
In conversation Mr.. Mathews dem
onstrates his ability as live wire,
booster and diplomat; and gets at
the logical point of his contention.
Having served for years on. differ
ent O.. r. C. grievance committees
between Texas and British Columbia,
his training in making dead ones"
move is above par and he says he
would like very much to meet some
of Needles motorists and Chamber
of Commerce members some evening
in the near future, in an effort to
show why some funds should be
raised by popular subscription or
otherwise to fix a certain piece of
road, along the Parker "cut-off" in
this county, so motorists can be ad-
vised to travel through Needles from
Phoenix and vice versa
Juan Tapia is idle and feeding his
stock, formerly employed on the
county road, at heavy expense. He
would like to go down by the D. &
W. mine and fix up the road in ques-
ton, while waiting for the county
road work to start, if only some ar
rangement could be made for the
necessary funds. Money, sensibly
expended on road work, no matter
how small, is an asset to the commun-
ity, both ways from the work

YUMA, Jan. definite word
has been received by the Yuma ex-
emption board that the next draft
call, including the deferred percent
ages of the first quota, will be made
up under the questionnaire classifi-
cation. The information comes
direct from Provost Marshal General
CrOwder. The announcement is also
made, that there will be no other
formal call before February Is and
that all men included in the deferred
percentages of the first quota will
enjoy the benefits of the question
naire.
In the meantime Secretary Winn
is busy mailing out the question
naires. 1t will be necessary for the
force to work all today in order to
avoid delay in the sending out of the
missionaries, which must be re-
turned within seven days.
County Attorney Wupperman, who
is also the appeal agent for the gov
ernment in all appeal cases, stated
yesterday that the new draft regu-
lations, a copy of which he has just
received will not apply to men in the
cantOnments. The regulations apply
only to candidates for the second Sc
lective draft army about to be raised.
LAS I interpret the new regula-
tiOns, the men who have been selected
are selected said Attorney Wup-
perman. "The new regulations have
nothing to do with them. 1t makes
no difference it some of them have
escaped under new regulations.

''Class two begins to take in mar

cases in which the wife or children
