 As amended by the senate, house bill % is very similar to the two other bills passed by the senate and rejected by the house. The senate amendments make the council com- posed of nine members, to be ap- pointed by the governor and ap- proved by the boards of supervisors of the counties from which they are not more than two mem bers from ono county; the council shall select its own chairman, the governor and attorney general merely being ex-officio members; county council of defense shall be composed of from three to seven members.
 The original bill provided for a council of which the governor shall be chairman, composed of IA mem- bers. one from each county, to be named by the governor and con frmed by the boards of supervisors of the counties, at least 10 of whom shall be named and confirmed before the council shall be organized.

PRESCOTT HAS 4 TREASURE AND
 TR|NKET CLUB
(From Sundays Daily.)

An organization, national in its scope, has been perfected for the purpose of soliciting donations for the benefit of the U. s. flying corps, the society being known as the Treas ure and Trinket Club. It has eX- pended large sums of money for a most important cause, has been rec ognized officially by the war depart ment, and to be a life member in good standing ono needs only to con- tribute something that they do not want and cannot possibly use them selves.
 In other words it has collected broken jcwclry, discarded plate and sterling silver which, melted down, has run into thousands of dollars, and the money so obtained has been used to supply the necessities for men in the flying corps, and extras which the boys could not have ob- taincd for themselves.
 One fact of interest in regard 10 this club is that the first 20 graduate flyers to reach New York from San Diego received q very substantial share of this fund, and among them was home boy, Lieutenant Ernest Love
 It is the desire of number of those closely interested in the flying corps to organize a branch in Pres colt, and anyone who has contribu- tions to make, will please leave them with Miss Annie Campbell Jones at the Coleman Brokcragc Co.
 There are among the items which can be used, and they will probably suggest others: old gold or silver thimbles, broken or out-of-datc bracelets, brooches, rings, chains, or links Of chains, etc, broken spoons, forks or toilet articles in sterling or silver plate, punched or mono grammcd coins, etc.

JEROME MAN IS CHARGED WITH
 MAKING BOOZE
ENTERPRISING RESIDENT OF COPPER CAMP SAID
 TO HAVE OPERATED A SMALL STILL AND MADE HIS OWN MOUNTAIN DEW

JEROME, June 15-A manufac- turing enterprise which has been eX- trcmely profitable since its establish ment in Jerome several months ago, in spite of the fact that it has re- ceived little or no general publicity, was rudely broken up last evening when two busybodies named Fred Hawkins and Charley Smith invaded the plant and carried away the ma chinery, with all the firms records, a quantity of the finished product and some other material not yet in marketable condition. They also kid mapped the factory sales agent
 The confscated machinery was a small but complete still and the product referred to was grape brandy. Alex Folena IS the name of the sales agent. It is suspected that Folcna was also connected with the mechan- ical end of the business but this be vigorously denies.
 Hawkins and Smith took advantage of their positions as city peace off, cers to interfere with legitimate in. dustry. They have been accused ire quently of standing in with the min ing companies and their high-handed action of last night certainly indicates that they have a desire 10 restrict Jeromc's output to copper.
 The factory was located in a build ing back of the Pratt secondhand shop When Hawkins and Smith broke in they found Folena in the main part of the plant. The plant consisted of two vessels, one stand ing on a wood stove and the other on gasoline stove, with a coil of lead pipe between. It was the work of only q few minutes for the vandals to wreck the place completely. They unscrcwcd the pipe and carried the plant away to the city hall in sections. Likewise they carried away sixteen pintS, a fve-gallon keg and one gallon dcniJohn of brandy. There were three big barrels filled with brandy in process of curing. Flaw bins and Smith, with destructive genius they must have learned from the Huns, opened the bungs and let the precious liquid gurgle away.
 Folcna admitted that he had been retailing the product of the factory al S a pint \ number of record sheets showed that several parties in Jerome owe the firm various sums for goods purchased at that rate It is now feared that since the factory is out of business they will attempt to evade payment of their just and honest debts.
 The sales manager could not give the name of the owner of the factory bu; said he thought 1t was a Russian. lie hi~'-,., had been compelled be- cause Ci Hines to relinquish his job at the U. Y. Extension and the sup posed Russian kindly gave him an opportunity 10 earn an honest living al easier work.
 This morning Folcna was taken before Justice Frank Smith, who seems 10 have the same prejudice as Hawkins and Charley Smith against infant industries trying to get foot hold in Jerome. Eolena waived eN- animation and was held in the sum of $500 to answer to technical charge of selling liquor. He was taken to Prescott by Hawkins today.

PHOENIX, June 15.-Out of a colony of possibly 500 Russians at Glendale not one registered for mili- tary service June last, Martin T. Wcyant, secretary of the local board, said yesterday. According 10 the boards compilation there must be several men in that colony becoming of age since the 1917 registration day. These Russians are not citizens of the United States and therefore not required 10 actually serve in the army, but they claim their religion is against war, or any phase of war, and that to even register. so that the government knows they are aliens, Is a phase of war, and therefore to reg istcr would be to commit sin against their god.

PHOENIX, June 14-Flag day figured in both branches of the legis- lature today The senate, on account of the day being a holiday, decided to enact no laws and after short session of the committee of the whole adjourned until tomorrow morning.
 The house took occasion to display its Americanism by effectively killing measure, which in the opinion of many members, was un-American and the passage of which would tend to Obstruct the waging of the war to a successful issue. This was the bill requiring all workmen employed in hazardous occupations to be able to read and understand the English lan- guage. The vote on the bill was 19 against and IA for.
 When the bill came up for third reading and final action the bars were let down to some extent and considerable latitude was allowed the members in the matter of discussion. Representative Foster spoke many times and feelingly in favor of the bill
 He contended that the enactment of such law would go long ways toward wiping out the l. w. w. and the men who throw fire balls into the hay fields by preventing Mexicans from talking in their na- tive tongues when they sit down to their lunch underground in the mines This line of argument was appar- entity beyond the comprehension of

 Foster challenged the statement that the enactment of such measure would reduce the output of copper in the State and several representa- tives replied with figures showing the output of the mines employing Mexican and Indian labor, thousands of whom are employed and the na- ture of their work being such that under present conditions white men will not engage in that class of work
 It required some time to call the roll as most of the members pres ent desired to explain their votes and asked that their remarks be taken down for the journal Most of the explanations of those voting for the bill referred to 100 per cent Ameri- canism.'
 The bill introduced in the house yesterday intended to prevent blind ness in children, was reported back by the committee on printing as not coming within the call for the ses- sion. This was sustained by the house.
 The printing committee made the same report on house bill No. B, which is the bill relating to the manu- facture of by-products of cotton, all falia and grain. In this instance the house overruled the committee and ordered the bill printed. It is now being considered by the agricultural committee.

IS NOT DISPOSED ID
 INTERVENE
DISMISSAL OF ARD MEMBERS IS CLOSED IN- CIDENT so FAR AS WAR DEPT. IS CONCERNED, C. OF C. IS TOLD.

The Chamber of Commerce, which several weeks ago transmitted to Provost Marshal General Crowdcr a copy of the resolutions drawn up by that body anent the summary dismiss sal of MessrS Heap and Finn from the Yavapai county exemption board, has received letter from this official which sets forth the attitude of the war department in the matter of making reinstatcments of board members who have been let out upon the recommendation of the var ious State military departments. The letter does not convey very much hope of intervention on part of tho ?. NJ. G., and it would seem that the dismissal of these competent board members is closed incident so far as the war department is concerned.
 The letter is as follows:
 "Yavapai County Chamber of Com
 merce,
 Prescott, Arizona.
 Gentlemen:
 This acknowledges receipt of your letter dated May 1lth, enclosing resolution adopted by your Cham Der of Commerce, protesting against the removal of Mir. II. w. Heap and Dr. J. W. Finn from the local board of Navapai county.
 Since the governor of a State Is charged with responsibility for the proper administration of the selec- tive service law and regulations in his State. it has been the unbrokcn policy of this office, except in very few unusual and exceptional cases. to defer action in any matter involving the personnel of local and district boards.
 Upon the recommendation of gov crnor Hunt. the removal of Messrs. Heap and Finn was approved by the president. Since that time this of ice, upon request, has received full report of the circumstances leading to the removal of the above-named men. The patriotism of Mir. Heap and Mir. Finn Is not questioned. Lack of harmony, however, between the local board in question and the adjutaut general of Arizona was so apparent, and the future gave prom ise of such increasing difficulties. that action of some character. looking to a restoration of wholesome coudi- tious in the administration of the selcctivc service law and regulations, appeared 10 be necessary. Since Governor Hunt Is responsi- ble for the successful administration of the selcctive service law in Ari- zona. and since he. acting through his adiutant general, was apparently un- able 10 work in harmony with Mcssrs Heap and Fliuu. and saw ft, 10 recommend the removal of these two men for the aboye-uamed reason, this office does not feel justified in with the action taken. Harmony between local boards and their State draft officials is of para mount importance for the proper and prompt administration of the selec- tive service law.
