WILL DEVELOP POWER

The National Council of Defense is contemplating the development of nearly one million horsepower m southern Pennsylvania, northern Vir- ginia and eastern OhiQ to make pos sible great manufacturing industries. This work is to be done at once so that industries may be perfected to employ the returning soldier and clvl- lian. Water power is to be the great power of the future and the sooner our government takes a hand in its de- velopment the better it will be for the country. The southwest has many streams that could be made available for power purposes and it is to be hoped that something will be done to help out in their development. Power development will make possible the opening up of rich farming lands Tn interior sections, and cause the rapid upbuilding of the country. Arizona has some magnificent streams that may be made to develop not only pow CT for the mines, farms and smelters, but also with which to operate every line of railroad within the confines of the state.

uTAH SOUTHERN RAILROAD

A report is current in Salt Lake that a party of capitalists is to build 2 railroad from the Clark railroad at Iund to Cedar City, and that later the road will be continued through the Kaibab forest to the rim of the Grand Canyon. The road to be built at once will tap the iron and coal region or southern Utah, and the southern eX- tension will pass through the big p-ne forests of Arizona. It will be built through one of the most scenic and picturesque parts of the great southwest and will give the people of the north an outlet on the Grand Can yon of the Colorado at a point where the view is more comprehensive than on the southern side. Other points of scenic interest can be reached from the road, especially the Little Zion canyon, a chasm vieing with the Grand Canyon in point of splendor. Witches Hole, Devils Cauldron and the great ash pit are among the nearby won ders that can be readily reached.

COPPER CAMP ADJUSTMENTS
 SHOWS ITS PATRIOTISM

The record of Morenci, Arizona, in regard to enlistments effectually spikes the stories that often drift out regarding innings camps. Morenci has furnished for the cause of democracy 232 men, and when it is considered that at the last general election there were but 500 votes cast by men and women together, the number of enlist ments stands out as a remarkable fig are. Some publicity has been given to unpatriotic acts in certain mining com munities, but nothing can be said against the patriotism of Morenci.
 The fact that so many men have left this community for service has been felt severely by the Phelps Dodge corporation and the Arizona Copper company, operation in that dis trict, but in spite of this fact, produc- ton has been reasonably well sus- tained.

Wesley Harris writes his mother, Mrs. J. w. Harris, from somewhere in Europe that he is well and enjoying life. He expects to soon see service at the front. Wesley has been active Iy engaged in breaking and handling horses for the cavalry, but expects to soon be among the fellows who are showing the Hun their mettle.
 Another son, Marshall, is in the medical corps at one of the California camps. He will continue his study Of medicine while doing his bit for Uncle Sam. This is a really fine record to have, two sons just turned 21 in the service of their country, and Mir. and Mrs. Harris may well be proud of their boys.

DOES ADVERTISING PAY?

One of the things that an investiga- tion of the packers has brought about is the campaign of advertising explan- ations that is now being carried on in the newspapers of the country by the big meat barons. A few years ago these gentlemen were in the class of Vanderbilt when he uttered his con- temptuous remarks about the general public, but like the Standard Oil they have found that publicity is necessary to allay suspicion. Just at present the big firms are having a deuce of a time explaining how they manage to distribute the big dividends if they only make a bare margin of profit. Their profit, that is the three largest concerns, was approximately nineteen million dollars per year for the three years prior to the war, but the first year of the war showed profit of s121 900 ,O00. Of course, there was no profiteering in this vast increment. Advertising camouflage is now on their bill, but the taking of the public into it's confidences is a rather late and lame affair. Nevertheless, adver- Using pays, even if it does not explain.

(By Roy N. Davidson)

JEROME, July 1S.-Mr. Hywell Davies, alternate federal administra- tor, after hearing committees from all sides and after investigating the va rious problems put up to him, left the latter part of last week for Los An geles where he has been in cOnsulta- tion with Mir. Chas. w. Clark, general manager of the United Verde Copper company. It is said that matters af- fectfng the providing of suitable and cheaper places of abode for the em- ployes of the district will be the prin- cipal topic taken up at this confer ence.
 While the houses and accommoda- tions owned by the United Verde and the United Verde Extension are rent ed to their employees at very low rate, there is not adequate room for all workers and other property owners are complained against as having charged excessive rents. Both of the larger companies are building addi- tional quarters and their plans include further extensive construction along that line, but at the present time, partly due to the recent fire which destroyed so many dwellings, housing facilities are very limited in Jerome and rooms are almost impossible to secure at any price.
 At a recent conference in Blsbee, mine operators of the state of Arizona agreed to a flat increase of 50 cents per day per man when the war indus tries board increased the price of cop per to 26 cents. All other districts except Jerome have posted notices Of such increase, but here, on account ot the fact that the matter IS entirely Tn the hands of the administrator for ad- justment, there has been no announce ment as to the increase. As such would have taken effect even though no demands were made, it is to be pre- sumed that the ruling of MT. Davles will grant an increase of 50 cents along with such other rulings as will be laid down by him. The demands of the Central Labor union were for a flat increase of S1.10 per day for all classes of labor.
 Mir. Davies, before he left for Los Angeles, stated that he would return within the next ten days or two weeks and that any increase granted would date from July 1.

 Although showing nothing new and of an exciting nature for the past few days, the work being done on the 1OSO level at Verde Combination is more than encouraging.

MOHAyE MUST GET BUSY

The report of sales of War Savings Stamps, just made public by State Di- rector H. R. Tritle, shows that Mohave county has not yet reached 50 per cent of its apportionment. Out of a quota of S8O,52O there has been paid in the sum oI S33,394. Yavapai county has paid in nearly 75 per cent of its quota, or at the ratio of S15.25 of its popula- tion. Mohave county is third in the list and Apache is fourteenth with but S1.27 paid in. The counties of Apache and Navajo show little interest in the stamp sales, the latter having invested only S1.8O per capita. The big cow men of that part of the state could take the whole issue and not miss 1t. The mining counties show the greatest percentage of investments.
