which tested the real quality of folks
as this time is geing to test it: be-
cause we are fighting for something
bigger than any mans imagination
can grant
. This is a final tackle between the
things that America has always been
opposed to and was organized to fight
and the things that she stands for;
1t is the final contest. and to lose il

will tackle, it in some way and do it
as well as we can"

WILSON ASKS FOR
AID OF FARMERS
Tells Delegation Of Agriculturalist
World, VIII BE Set Back Cen
turies II Foe Wins.

Washington, d. c., Feb. 9.-Ameri-
ca is facing "the final tackle" between
the things she "has always been OPP
posed to and the things she stands
for" President Wilson told a dele
cation of farmers yesterday,
1T is the final contest" he said,
,, and to lose it would set the whole
world back not 100-perhaps several
hundred-yeafs in the development of
human rights"
Mr.. Wilson was speaking to dele
gates to the federal board Of farm
loan organizations who urged that he
appoint commission Of nine FROM
their number to serve as an interme-
diary between the government and the
farmers in solving agricultural. labor
and other problems.
The delegation presented memo
rial making various suggestions con-
corning the handling'of farm problems
land the exemption of farm labor from
military service. The president re-
Piled:
Il cannot, Of course, offhand answer
SO important memorial as this, and
l need not tell you that it will receive
my most careful attention. Many OF
the questions have been matters of
deep and constant concern with us
for months past. and believe that
many OF them are approaching as sue
cessful q solution as We can work Out
for them. but just what those steps
are cannot now detail to you. You
are probably familiar with some Of
them.
Il want to say that I fully recog-
nize that you gentlemen do not mean
that your utmost effort will depend
upon the acceptance Of the sugges-
tons. l know you are going to do
your best in any circumstances. There
never has been a time, gentlemen.

INTERESTING LECTURE
 BY PROF. ALLEN

Last evening at the high school M. E. Allen, of the Bureau of Mines of the Arizona state university, lectured on war metals, and embelished his lectures with movie pictures and stere- Opticons. The house was well filled with an interested audience and the lecture was we'll worth listening to. Mir. Allen is a good talker and had his subject well in hand.
 Few people really know the value of the various metals that are now en- tering into what is known as war metals, although they are fully ad- vised of the value of the ordinary metals that make up the necessities of the peoples of the world. The war metals are many and their uses are varied. Some are for the purpose of strengthening steel, while others are used for the cleansing or freeing the important metals from impurities Prospectors may run over important minerals and not knowing their value may pass them up. It is to give the men who prospect some idea of the value and necessity of the various lit tie known minerals that these lec- lures are given throughout the state
