MESA MEN DECIDE
 ID ORGANIZE BAND

MESA, June 21.-Mesa is to have a band. Thus decided the group of men gathered at the city hall on Wednes- day night in response to a call for the discussion of the band question.
 A representative number of men were on hand and John Bond was elected as temporary chairman. After talking over the matter, a motion was carried that band be organized, and 1 twenty five names were secured as members. Most of these have had eX- tended eXperince in playing band in struments. A committee consisting of w.. M. Gollaher, George Fryer and John Bond was selected by the meeting to frame a set of bylaws and report on Monday night of next week when the first practice will be held.
 Mesa is fortunate in having enough instruments to form almost the con- plete band. At one time there was an | organization in existence here and all the necessary pieces were purchased. A very few of these have disappeared in one way or another, but enough are l left to form a splendid nucleus, and the others can be added as the funds
 become available.

MEXICAN MADE TO STAND IN HONOR OF
 NATIONAL ANTHEM

MESA, June 21.-A Mexican was un- compelled to stand while the national anthem was being sung at the Majestic theater. There is a slide which throws a courteous request on the screen ask Ing the patrons to stand while the Star Spangled Banner is being sung. This announcement is in both English and Spanish. Following it. comes another slide reading: If the man next to you won't stand, make him stand" The Mexican population show the utmost readiness to comply with the request, but one night recently young Mexi- can about 25 years of age refused to rise when the usher told him to do so. E. K. Menhennet, who is in charge of the theater during the absence of his brother, Wm. M. Menhennet, went down the aisle and repeated the re- quest, whereupon the man folded his arms, stiffened himself in the seat, and asid he would leave the theater, but would not stand up; that he was a Mexican and not an American. Men hennet said: You will stand up, and you wont leave the show till this song is over." and catching the fellow by the shoulders, dragged him to his feet. Two other Mexicans who had been sit ting at once arose and remained stand ing. During the controversy three Mesa men stepped up close and pre- pared to see that the anthem was duly respected. Shortly after the occurrence the man left the show, muttering to himself.

MINING MAN HERE
 ON WAY ID COAST

Alex B. Downe, vice president of the Silver King of Arizona mining proper ty, was in Phoenix last evening on his way from the mines to Los Angeles.
 The property of the Silver King is the famous old property that in the early days was one of the great silver producers, and is located about 50 miles southeast of Phoenix. There are many tales of valuable hidden treas ures in the old mines. There are 35 men at work on the property now.
 w. w. Lawhon. J. F. Alkire and O. H. Loch of Phoenix. accompanied Mir. Downe and brought back news of a big strike recently made at the mine. On the 400-foot level, the old slopes be- ing filled up, new drifts were driven. A ledge, 20 feet thick, was cross cut. It carries very high values in silver and copper, and Mir. Downe is con- vinced that this is one of the rich lodges, referred to in some of the early day operations, that were not worked when located because of so much other very rich ores.
 The present efforts consist largely of developing work, but some ore is be- ing placed on dump. A 30 to 40 ton per day mill is just being completed and will be ready to be placed in opera ton early next month.

It is said that the re- fineries can produce as high as 10o,- 900 tons year. but as this takes some 250000 tons of zinc ore the problem before Japan is to obtain 100000 tons of ore in foreign markets, as only 5O,00O tons are mined ir Japan.

SURGICAL DRESSING
 DEPARTMENT CLOSES
 TODAY TEMPORARILY

Mrs. Barry Goldwator. supervisor of surgical dressings, will close this de- partmcnt of Red Cross work today. All members of her class will meet at the Chamber of Commerce headquarters this forenoon when Mrs. Goldwater will explain the need of closing down work for tho vacation period due to the shortage of surgical gauge. This action is in line with a suggestion from national headquarters and will be fol- lowed throughout the country
 The situation relative to the supply of the gauge Is set forth in a bulletin issued from the Pacific Division head quarters which in part follows: Situation Serious The situation regarding surgical gauge production is very serious and has been a worry to national and di- Nisional headquarters as well as to the chapters. Arrangements have been made whereby this problem will i'm prove in the next couple of months very materially. as the government is working in harmony with the Red Cross in controlling the output of gauge.
 One Of the main troubles in the past has been the individual purchasing by Chapters direct from manufacturers or 1obbers This has created competi- ton that is responsible for the high price of gauge. To enable the National headquarters to oet this matter prop crly in order. it is necessary that all chapters discontinue immediately the purchasing Of any gauge excepting through the divisional supply bureau. 1t is also necessary. to get this situ- ation properly controlled. 10 have each oh. .4s,Tsa reau of supplies: The amount of gauge on hand. amount Of gauge contracted for (outside of bureau of supplies) for future deliveries; when these deliver les will take place; at what prices this gauge is being purchased.
 Definite Quantities
 National headquarters has under taken to furnish definite quantities of surgical dressings to the army and navy and these orders will be appor- toned from time to time to the chap tcrs.
 The commission in Europe is now making a study of what dressings are nRded and will hereafter make defi- mite acquisitions and it will be neccs- sary for all chapters to produce only such dressings as the divisional hu-
 
 handagcs. the quantities are commence ing to be adequate and others again the quantities are inadequate.
 In the meantime. it has been sug- Eested from national headquarters. that all surgical dressing workrooms shut down for a vacation period of a few weeks until after July 1st, and we rec ommend that all charters put this sug- gestion into effect at once, excepting however where definite quantities fol government work have been given tC the chapters. A sufficient number ol workers should be retained 10 complete these quantities within a reasonable time. Where there is not enough gauzC to carry out the order for these def mite quantities, application should bC made to the bureau Of supplies whicl will furnish the necessary material a' rapidly as possible.
 The present stock of dressing ac- cumulated against our more active participation in the war is large enough to meet all emergencies anC the present needs of both ourselves and our allies.

yelopment of zinc mining and refin- ing in Japan has been reached since the outbreak of the present war. The zinc was first mined in commer- cial way in 1897, but even as late as
