BRITISH SUDNEN GOT THEIR TURN
 IN SURRENDER
Though Playing Mute and Not Altogether Glorious Part in War, They Accepted the U-Boat Surrender

HARWICH, England, Nov. 2l, Cor respondence of the Associated Press.) The business of actually accepting the German submarines in surrender Was re. formed by officers and men or , British submarine force who for m. than four years had maintained a tedious but relentless vigil of wa ters of the British Isles. An admiral in a light cruiser commanded the fleet to which the U-boats surrendered but it was a submarine officer who first stepped aboard each submarine, curtly went through with the brief formali- ties and it was a crew of men who mad fought the U-boats by underwater methods that manned it and took it to port
 These men had uncomplainingly stuck to a job that was recognized by the admiralty as one of the most unat- tractive in the navy but it was ended by participation in an event unique in naval history and a fitting ending for service performed.
 Although British submarines always were on the lookout for U-boats their success in the war was not menaced by the number they destroyed. Nev- ertheless it was cO-incident that 20 U-boats should have been sunk by Bri- tish submersibles during the war and it was the same number first surrend- cred to the British submarine crews on the day the taking over of the Ger man fleet was inaugurated off this port.
 As far as possible the admiralty dis tributed the honor of taking over the U-boats among all the men of the sub marine flotilla. Fourteen men were placed on each surrendered boat and as they surrendered in patches of 20 a total of 2S0 officers and men were allowed to participate each day. Every man looked forward to it eagerly, all of them wanted to be selected for the first days work but when they board ed the beaten craft they maintained excellent discipline and orders against any demonstration were so carefully Obeyed that it was almost an air of disinterest that they went about their duties.
 So much had been said of the intri cacies of the German submarine that there were many misgivings among the British officers of their ability tC navigate them soon after they had re ceived them They were soon reas sured, however, as nothing so far diff ferent from other submarines was found. Among the first 20 brought in was the U-135 which is 276 feet long, was completed three months ago and had never been to sea until she crossed the British channel to be sur rendered. Her type attracted Com modore s. S. Hall, who has been al the head of the British submarine force since the beginning of hostilities
 He was taken to the vessel soon aft CT she was placed in her berth in the River Stour and inspected her with the young British lieutenant who had taken her over and brought her into port with the aid of the German engi neers. Commodore Hall, about to leave, smilingly asked the lieutenant when he would be ready to shove off" But the young man took the question seriously and promptly re piled:
 'I can take her to sea in a couple of hours. She is frightfully dirty but the engines are in good shape and my men can operate them"

BOARD FORMS ID CONSERVE WASTE
 IN THIS SECTION
Reclamation of All Material Which Otherwise Would Be Thrown Away Is Object of War Industries Body

, With the sole intent and purpose of putting into effect the doctrine of conservation, inangurated first by the army of the United States through its reclamation department and then adopted into civil circles by the na- tional waste reclamation section of the war industries board, the Warren district industries board was organ ized Friday afternoon at a meeting held in the rooms of the Warren Dis trict Commercial club.
 Organization first was perfected, in accordance with the call issued for the meeting by Mayor Jacob Erickson, with Sam Frankenberg as chairman; J. P. Connolly vice-chairman, c. w. Ruth secretary. Those at the meeting and the organizations represented by them were:
 Vance M. Johnson for Council of National Defense.
 J. P. Connolly for American Red Cross society.
 E. A. Putnam for Y. M. c. A.
 John P Steffes for National Catho- lie War board.
 Sam Frankenberg for Jewish Vel fare board.
 Mrs. Sam H. Kyle for National Council of Women.
 James A. Kempton for National Committee on Prisons.
 w. R. Ashurst for American Feeder ation or Labor.
 c. W. Allen for Warren District Commercial club.
 C. W. Ruth for Warren District Business Mems Protective gssocia- tiOn.
 The literature concerning the forma- tion of the board. which had been re- ceived by Mayor Erickson from the national body was turned over to the newly formed war industries board, which at once began laying plans for a drive Of one week or more for the purpose of gathering up all paper, steel, copper, wool, iron. brass, cot ton, zinc. aluminium, rubber, babbit metal, tinfoil, lead, tin and leather from the residences and business places of the district, with the idea of having these ordinarily wasted ma terials turned into service to the community.
 Arrangements will be made with junk dealers to make regular calls through the district for the purpose of obtaining the articles mentioned, which would be gathered up by the householders and put in a convenient T,- where the war industries boards are working, signs are hung out by the occupants of houses when they have gathered material for the junkman
 In the army, where waste formerly was considered a matter of course nothing now is wasted. Even surplus gTeases and fats are being conserve and rendered into soap for army use while metal, old clothing, rags, leath CT and hundreds of other formerly wasted materials are sent to the rec lamation department to be sorted worked over and used again and again until all disability is past. In view of this disposition upon the part of our fighting men, it is up to civilians distinctly to use their time and effor.s to prevent waste, save usable articles from the trash heap and put the things they saved back into national circulation" To oversee the proper performance of this duty, the board has been or ganized. Following the next meeting to be held at an early date, more definite announcement of plans prob ably will be made.

Boys Get Good Send-Of.

The social affair given at Jack
O'Connor's restaurant last Friday
evening in honor of Bob Perry, Irvine
Roberts, Dan O'Connor and Chris
Mueller, was one of the largest at
tended social gatherings ever given
in Parker. The spacious rooms were
crowded to overflowing, when the
program of speaking began. Mrs. A.
F. Duclos, F. M. Hall and J. B. Flan-
agan each praised the patriotism of
the boys on the eve of their joining
the colors and entering the service of
Uncle Sam. A large patriotic cake,
in the colors of the American flag,
with the names of the boys inscribed
thereon, was one of the features of
the occasion. Besides this cake there
were numerous others, and large
quantity of ice cream, all of which
was greatly relished by the guests
when the time arrived for refresh
ments. During the evening dancing
was INDUCED in and a general social
time was had. Bob Perry and Chris
Mueller left Thursday morning for
Yuma, where they will join the Yuma
contingent. Dan O'Connor and Ir-
vine Roberts left Sunday night for
Phoenix to enlist in the navy. They
returned home Tuesday night, two
very much disappointed lads, because
they were unable to pass the physical
examination. However, the boys
showed that their heart was in the
right place by offering their services
to their country.

enter the military service in response
to the draft, Mrs. A. l.. Preston,
hostess of the Independent restaur-
ant, prepared and served an elegant
spread for the departing ones and
about fifteen of their friends. The
repast, which was a most bounteous
one, was served about II p. M, and
the guests fingered long at. the festal
board in felicitous remarks and
social pleasantly until about train
time, when all escorted the to-be
militants to the cars and saw them
off, after kindly adieux and cordial

GIVE FREELY
TO RED CROSS

If anyone who reads this could
stand in receiving hospital in
France on the day after a great bat
tie and watch the wounded being car
ried in; if he could understand what
sufferings are and how great an al
deviation even little care may bring,
he probably would not rest or sleep
until he had done everything that
lay within his power to help them.
1t is because we do not realize all
that battles mean that we are able to
go about our business at home as un-
concernedly as we do.
But the work of caring for the
wounded has to be done and cannot
be done without aid. This is Red
Cross week. A contribution to the
Red Cross is just as truly help to
the sick or, wounded soldier, the dis
heartened refugee, the tubercular
French or Belgian child, or the home
sick American soldier, just back from
siege in the trenches, as though we
had lent hand to carry in stretch
er under fire, and had tied the tourni-
Quet to stanch the flow of blood, or
had provided the hot soup, the warm
bath and the clean clothing that
brings back hope and cheer
The American Red Cross is the del
egate in Europe Of the American
ideal of neighborliness. Through it
the good will of America reaches out
to its own soldiers across the seas and
to others who need our help. 1t is
the healing and saving influence that
follows in the wake of the war, the
faithful messenger of mothers love,
the good Samaritan. When we give
we must not imagine that we are
merely filling the Golfers of an organ
ization. What we are really doing is
to save the life or soothe the pain of
our own sons and brothers, or those
of our neighbors. 1t Is little that we
can give in comparison with what
they have given, yet our little is es-
sential.
President Wilson has named this
as Red Cross week. The whole ma
chinery of that vast organization
hospitals, ambulance units, infirmar-
les, canteens, rest stations, refugee
relief work-needs dollars if it is to
continue in motion.

$16S GOLD ORE STRUCK AT TUR.
TIE MOUNTAINS.

Assays running $168.24 gold and
several dollars in silver have been
returned by a San Diego assayer to
Col. Kit Carson, of the Turtle Noun.
tain Gold Mining company. These
splendid values are from a rich strike
made on the company's property two
weeks ago. Carson reports the vein
to be two and half feet wide, and
the samples were taken from a cut
eight feet deep. The vein has been
traced for mile or more and the
entire distance pans gold. 1t is the
richest strike yet made on the prop
erty, and the stockholders in the
company are enthusiastic over it. On
the east end of the vein, about mile
from where the high grade was taken
out, in the Katherine claim, from
which samples were taken that as
sayed $92 in gold. At this point the
vein narrows down to eight inches
Extensive development work on
the new strike will be pursued at
once, according to Colonel Carson.
Not only does the region abound
in gold, but Col. and Mrs. Carson
have discovered a portion of the dis
trict is rich in a variety of stones of
commercial value, such as smoky to-
paz, garnet and sapphires. Several
of these have been cut and polished

SILENT BILL" LEWIS.

All honor to "Silent Bill'' Lewis of
Ray. There may be heavier contrib
utors to the second Red Cross fund
than ''Silent Bill" but there will be
none whose gifts will be more highly
priced and no other will be so much
talked about. We do not know
whether "Silent Bill'' is a rich man
but we suppose he is not or he would
not be a peace officer Many rich
men do not believe that they could
afford to give $1,000 to the Red Cross
or any other war activity. "Silent
Bill" though, perhaps believed that
the money he received as a reward
for the capture of murderer was a
trust fund obtained by a display of
courage, and that it appropriately
belonged to fund for the relief of
those whose courage and patriotism
brought them physical suffering.
If there is sentimental value in a
dollar, that thousand dollars "Silent
Bill' Lewis gave to the Red Cross at
Ray ought to go as far as a million
ordinary dollars.-Arizona Republic

PARKER IN SUMMERTIME

The following hot weather poem
was received this week by the editor,
signed only 'By a Parkerite." The
| name of the writer is unknown to us,
but whoever it is, he or she believes
that a little hot weather is not bad
thing to struggle through If one lives
in Parker. The poem follows:
The summer days are coming,
The river Is looking fine,
Tempting all the fishermen
Who care to cast line;
Who care not for the muddy water,
Who care not for the sun,
Who care not for the appellation
OF Lazy, every one"
A picnic lunch beside them,
A freeze full of cream,
And then life's worth the living
Beside the willows green.
The swimmers, too, are tempted,
Their bathing suits are patched,
They all crank up their jitneys
And drive to Potter's wash.
A dash down to the sandhill,
A scramble out of clothes,
A plunge into the water
Away the hot spell goes
Who cares II the thermometer
Says "a hundred in the shade?"
Who cares if days are long and hot,
With mosquitoes on parade?
AS long as the good old river
Keeps gliding on it's way.
Those hot, hot, days of summer
Can here forever stay.

MUST NOW HAVE
j. s. APPROVAL

Companies or corporations which
have just secured permission of the
state corporation commission to issue
stock or which contemplate issuing
stock are 'up in the air.
BY an act of congress, notice OF
which has just been received at the
| office of the corporation commission
in Phoenix, all issues of stock, bonds
or securities of 100000 or more
must secure the approval Of the Capt.
tai Issues Committee which was Just
established and authorized by con-
gress on April Is.
The Capital Issues Committee Is to
pass upon all issues of stock, bonds or
certificates, the act establishing the
committee providing "that no person,
corporation or company shall issue
stock, bonds or certificates in amounts
OF 100000 or more, par value, with
out the approval of the committee"
The penalty for violation>of this act
is placed at fine of $4,000 and i'm
prisonment for one year
This act affects, almost without
exception, every mining and oil COM
pany seeking to issue stock. Many of
these companies are capitalized In a
large number of shares, the par value
of which is only 81. Stock then is
offered at few cents per share This
act, however, affects issues of stock
at 100000 or more, par value.
Information received from the Cali
fornia corporation commission by the
Arizona commission states that the
California commission will issue stock
selling or stock issuing permits only
on the approval Of the Capital Issues
Committee.
THE Arizona Corporation Commis-
sion will decide without delay on q
question of policy in regard to this
matter" F. A. Jones, chairman Of the
commission, announces.
The authorization of the Capital Is
sues Committee follows out the an
nouncement of government officials
made recently at Chicago at conven-
tion Of heads Of Incorporating depart
ments Of state corporation commits
sions that the government would
frown upon the Issuing of stock of
concerns that would tend to be Of no
value to the country during the war.
1t was announced at that time that
capital should not be unnecessarily
be tied up in issues of stock In con-
Germs for which there is no immediate
need.
1t is probable that the ARIZONA Cor
poratton Commission will follow the
policy Of the California commission
and in the future grant permits for
the issue of stock, bonds or securities
only with the proviso that the ap-
proval Of the Capital Issues Commit
tee be obtained.

HOW To SAVE
MORE GASOLINE
Margaret Widdemer
OF the Viuilantes.

The Parker office of the Standard
Oil Company has recently received a
more gasoline. These suggestions
are recommended by the National
Automobile Chamber of Commerce
and endorsed by the California State
! Automobile Association. The rules
not only save more gas but users OF
motor vehicles will be benefited per-
sonally and individually through
more efficient and more economical
operation of cars. Here are the
rules:
L.. Store gasoline in underground
steel tanks.
2. Use measuring pump and hose.
They prevent loss by fire, evaporation
and spilling.
3 Don't spill or expose gasoline to
airs-it evaporates rapidly and is dan
gefous.
4. Don't use gasoline for cleaning
and washing-use kerosene or other
materials to cut grease.
| 5. Stop all gasoline leakage.
Form habit of shutting off gas at tank
or feed pipe.
6. Adjust brake bands so they do
not drag. See that all bearings run
! freely.
Z. Don't let the engine run when
car is standing. It is good for starter
battery to be used frequently.
8. Have carburetors adjusted at
service stations of carburetor or auto
mobile cOmpanies-they will make
ordinary adjustments without charge.
9. Keep needle valve clean and
adjust carburetor (while engine is
hot) to use as lean a mixture as pos
sible. A rich mixture fouls the en-
gine and is wasteful.
10. Pre-heat air entering carbur-
etOr and keep radiator covered in
cold weather-this will insure better
vaporization.
II. See that spark is timed cor
rectly with engine and drive with
spark fully advanced-a late spark
increases gas consumption.
IL. Have a hot spark, keep plugs
! clean and spark points properly ad
justed
13. Avoid high speed. The aver
age car is most economical at Is to
