Every registrant. not an alien, re-
CARELESS of classification. who is not in
a current quota call may Immediately
induct himself into the military service
by filing with his local board request
in writing to be placed in the service.
Upon the filing of this request he will
be examined, and if found physically fit,
will be sent by the board to Camp
Greene. Charlotte, y. c. Those in Class
2, 8 and Z, must accompany the request
by waiver of deferred classification.

Penalties for Evasion.

The man who thinks to eyade the in
come tax is making a serious error. A
checking system will inform the govern
ment OF delinquents Under what is
known as the information at source"
provision of the act of 1917 employers
are required to file with the commission
er of internal revenue true report Of
the wage of $500 or more paid to each
employee during the year 1917 The gov
eminent has other methods of keeping
tab on delinquents.
The penalties are severe. For failing
to make return on time the penalty IS
fine of not less than $40 nor more than
81 900 and in addition so per cent Of the
amount due. For making a false or
fraudulent return the penalty is a fine
not exceeding $1,000 or one years inn
prsonment or both, in the discretion of
the court and 100 per cent of the tax
due. For failing to pay on time the
penalty is an assessment OF D per cent
of the amount of tax due plus | per cent
interest for each full month during which
it remains unpaid.
Last year 100000 persons paid an in

Some are already there and soon
the casualty list sent in by Gen
eral Pershing will be scanned by
anxious eyes. 1t matters not
whether your boy is fighting in
France, it is enough to know
that your neighbours boy is there
and that you must back him up.
Right here we wish to call the
attention of the individuals in
this town and other towns in the
valley, who have been busy lately
in advising our farmers not to
plant wheat the coming year,
because, as they tell it, the local
mill is robbing them, that they
had better right-about-face and
cut out all such advice, for the
reason that such pro-German talk
will not be tolerated anywhere
in Graham county.
Graham guardian., 1918-06-21

up for an election and had been
carried, our county highway
would today be the best in the
southwest. But the wiseacres
decided to throw coldwater on
the proposition and discourage
the bond election, finally pre-
venting it from being carried out,
and today, with all our new re-
sponsibilities brought to us on
account of the war with Ger
many, we could not sell road
bonds, and we must improve the
roads, we've got to do it, and it
is going to cost good sum of
money, which the taxpayers will
have to pay.
The board of supervisors should
pay particular attention. when
making up the next budget, to
the question of repairing the
county highway and the building
| of a new road from the valley to
Bonita, and provide sufficient
money to accomplish these much
needed improvements.
Graham guardian., 1918-06-21

opinion of the bad roads in Gra-
ham county.
The taxpayers of the county
must do something in the way of
making better roads, especially
the county highway. which should
be put in first class condition
from the Greenlee county line to
the Gila county line.
Our roads are knocked to trav-
elers coming west through Ell
Paso, the Ell Pasoans going out
of their way to tell travellers to
avoid Graham county and take
the southern road through Bis
bee, Douglas and on to Phoenix,
and we should have spirit enough
to resent this and get busy on
good roads.
Stafford would do a great deal
more business, so would Pima
and Thatcher, if the county high
way was in good condition thru
out its entire length.
A new road should be made
from the valley, through Stock
ton Pass to the western part of
the county. If there was good
road to that section. the people
of Bonita and other precincts
would come to the valley to do
their trading. instead of going
to Wilcox.
The people of Graham county
were certainly short sighted
when they opposed the road bond
election two years ago. If the
matter had been allowed to come

GOOD HIGHWAY NEEDED

The county highway from Pima
to Geronimo is good only in spots,
and the bad spots are truly bad,
they are a nightmare, a burles-
que on good roads and a torture
to travellers, and a bad adver-
tisement.
The county highway is particu-
larly bad where it goes through
Redland. Full of ruts and all
adobe. not foot of gravel for
miles, it presents such a horrible
appearance that the traveller in
a car becomes disheartened and
does not hesitate to express his
