STOPPED BY UNION HEADS
British Record Broken by William
Smith With 6,7S3 Rivets
in Nine Hours.

LONDON, May 28.-An attempt to
establish a record for handwriting
at the shipyard Of ]. Crichten & Co,
at Saltney. near Chester. was stopped
by officials of the Boilermakers' So
ciety, according to the Daily Mail.
This action was taken after riveting
squad had driven 2.125 five-eights-
inch steel rivets into frames for ships
in six and a half hours.

lieved to have resulted from the cir
cular sent by Secretary Hill of the
Boilermakers Society to branches. de-
claring that riveting contests must
be stopped and that members taking
part in them would be dealt with by
the society.
1t is reported from Barrow that an
inquiry is to be made by officials
of the Boflermakers' Union into the
circumstances under which William
Moses set a record on May 20. Asked
what trade union rule Moses had
broken, an official of the Barrow
boilermakers' local said last night:
THAT will be ascertained when all
the evidence has been taken. The
local officials have no feeling what
ever against Moses and they admire
his skill and endurance, but they
have to keep within the rules of their
society"

 Speaking of the bill creating anoth- CT federal judgeship for Arizona, Ma jor Hayden said that the measure had passed the senate and on his motion it had been put on the unanimous con sent calendar of the house. The re- publican members, however, prevent ed any further progress, saying that the bill should not be passed until after the elections. Whether they would interpose objection after that they would not say.
 As to the result of the congression- al elections, Major Hayden said there was considerable doubt, but the demo- crats were hopeful of the defeat of about 40 republicans for reelection on the ground that they had opposed the president There are some demo- cratic candidates for reelection in the same boat, but generally they were weeded out in the primaries.

and Florence. While in the National Guard Major Hayden attended all Of the annual encampments and was in command of troops at the manuevers held at Camp Mabry, Texas, and Atlas cadero, California. He is an expert rif1eman, having been a member of the Arizona Rifle Team at Camp Per ry, Ohio, for four years.
 In submitting his application, Con- gressman Hayden stated that he did not desire Staff appointment and is highly pleased that he has been as- signed to the Infantry.
 Believing that Germany will be de- feated before December 1919, Major Hayden has not resigned his nomina- tion as the Democratic candidate for Congress because, in the event of his election, he hopes to be able to return to Washington for the regular session of Congress which begins at that time. The Senators from Arizona both approve of his accepting this commission and have assured him that they will look after all of the departmental business coming from that State during his absence. Major Hayden's colleagues in the House have promised to take care of his bills on the calendar and other legis. lative work during the short session of Congress which ends on the 4th of March.
 Major Hayden is the sixth mem Der of congress now in the army, the other Representative being Heintz of Ohio, La Guardia of New York, John. son of South Dakota, Connally of Texas and Johnson of Washington, none of whom have resigned their seats in the Huse and all of whom have been renominated except Heintz of Ohio, who was not a candidate Each of these Congressmen, however must sacrifice his salary as Represen tative because under the law they can obtain nothing but their army pay while in the military service.
 Major Hayden is now in Phoenia arranging his private affairs and will proceed from there to American Lake in the state of Washington. The Division to which he has been assign ed has already been filled and will be sent to France before Christmas fol duty. Being an officer in the army he is prevented from taking any par, : in politics so that he must leave his campaign for reelection to Congress in the hands of his friends.
 As to the prospect of peace, Major Hayden, speaking only of peace as { result of military operations, saiG that it was the opinion of army mer who had been in France that the conquest of Germany would be com pleted sometime next summer, or, al any rate before this time next year Though the Germans may occupy the stronger defenses of the shorter lint in their own territory, there will bt a sufficient force of allied troops tc

MAJOR HAYDEN IN ACTIVE SERVICE
 AT ARMY CAMP
VISITS PHOENIX FOR FIVE DAYS LAST WEEK AND LEAVES FOR CAMP LAKE, WASHlNGTOJ.- EXPECTS TO BE IN FRANCE 8C, FORE CHRISTMAS.

Washington, D. c. Oct. 23.-Hor. Carl Hayden, Congressman from Ari- zona has been commissioned as Ma jor of Infantry in the United States Army for the duration of the War and ordered to duty. He reported for duty at Camp Lake, Washington, this week. Over a year ago MT. Hay den wrote a letter to the President rendering his services and referring to the record on file in the War De- partment of his previous service of over ten years as an officer in the National Guard of Arizona. The President made the following reply:
 The White House.
 Washington, Aug. 14, 1917. My dear MT. Hayden:
 Your letter of August 12th certain ly does you great honor, and I am going to take the liberty of handing it on to the Secretary of War in the hope that he may see some opportuni- ty to avail himself of your offer.
 Cordially and Sincerely yours,
 Woodrow Wilson. Hon. Carl Hayden,
 House of Representatives.
 The Secretary of War advised MT. Hayden that the National Guard Di- visions were then being reorganized and stated that when that process was completed consideration would be given to his qualifications. As events actually occurred the reorgani zation of National Guard regiments created surplus of officers so that there was no vacancy to which he could be appointed. MT. Hayden, however, continued to urge that he be permitted to enter the Army, particu- larly after learning that a large num- Der of officers were needed for the new divisions that are now being or ganized. The General Staff favorably reported upon his application and the Acting Secretary of War has now or dered that his commission be issued with the same rank that he held in the National Guard.
 MT. Hayden enlisted as a private in Company c of the 1st Arizona In- fantry in August, 1903, and shortly afterward was commissioned as Cap tain by Governor Brodie. After six years service as Company Com mander he was promoted to the rank of Major and assigned to the 1st Battalion consisting of the Compan- ies located at Phoenix, Tempe, Mesa

 Home Newspapers for Soldiers


 feature of Knights of Columbus camp work is having on file at K. of c. building wherever possible, copies of home newspapers from points where soldiers come from. The eag- erness with which soldiers accept them is evidence of their appreciation. New England publishers have been especially generous in supplying newspapers for K. of c. headquarters at Camp Upton.
 Soldiers Use Lots of Stationery.
 At one of the Knights of Columbus buildings at an embarkation, there is distributed each day to soldiers apply ing about 10000 letterheads and 10,- 900 envelopes. Frequently two hun dred men are seen writing letters at desks provided by the K. of c. Re gently one day, there were distribut- ed 47,000 letterheads.

 we didn't know exactly how some of the boys would feel in the midst of such splendors as the famous casino, for instance. A few of us were standing in the rotanda, with it's marble floor, expensive statuary, entered. We had been trying to fig ure out just what would happen when this private should appear. Here he was, and we waited breathlessly. .'The soldier, a member of the | fighting 69th of the 165th Division, had large size cud of tobacco in one cheek, from the off corner of his mouth trench perfecto was tilted belligerently. His hat was draped carelessly over one ear Squirting from the eye on the other side, the newcomer made a casual inspection of his surroundings. Still we waited.
 Then, his appraisal finished, that New York boy removed his cigar from his lips, blew forth a cloud of smoke, sent stream of tobacco juice spurt- ing after it, and ejaculated:
 Some dump!''
 | History will not record the name of that fighting man, but he surely cid relieve the minds of a committee of novices engaged in a pioneer war work. Aix-les-Baines has more than justified it's selection and the purpose behind that selection. The boys who spend their leave there carry back glowing reports that their fellows i'm mediately cancel their arrangem ents to go to Paris, and go instead to a resort where the temptations are eliminated, and where they may be assured that they will find congenial recreation and return to their military duties more efficient fighting men,"
