MEMORIAL DAY IN THE
 PHILIPPINE ISLANDS

Letters received this weell by Mrs. Frank M. Rippey from her husband, Frank M. Rippey, who is private in the Marine corps, stationed at Cavite, Philippine Islands, brought with them a couple of programs, one of Memorial Day, and one July Fourth's exercises at that place.
 The officers and privates of that corps done themselves proud in their preparation for the celebration of these two events and from the pro- gram, one would be led to believe that they feel just as much at home as if they were among the folks back here, although they are soma thousands of miles away.
 The program carried music, flowers, speeches, athletic events and the ever princely "feed" and to let the folks at home know what Uncle Sam calls a "feed," we give the following menu:

Lieut.. Raymond S. Adams, son of George Adams, writes his father from Camp Mills, New York, that New York is alright but old Arizona is best after all. He adds:
 "I will be we'll on my way over when you receive this. There will be card mailed you as soon as we sail with my address on it. Be sure to write be- cause mail will be more welcome now than ever before.
 "Oh, say, do you remember 'Blacky' (Wm. Reynolds), the fellow that drove the little gray team for you on Mil ler's road? He is a lieutenant in this division. He is in the 158th Infantry, the old Arizona outfit. I saw him be- fore l left. They will be here in a few days. Give everyone my regards" |"

MOVEMENT TO SEND HOME PAPER TO ALL SOLDIERS
 AND SAILORS IN SERVICE

LONDON.-"More home newspap, CTS, is the constant appeal from the American soldiers in the camps and hospitals in Great Britain" says ar American Red Cross report made pub lie here.
 The American Red Cross library committee in London is now furnish ing reading matter for 25,000 men weekly, the report states, but the sup ply consists largely of books. The supply of home newspapers is not equal to one-tenth of the demand for them.
 Regarding books," says the report, "the men ask principally for fiction, and light fiction at that, t,but the Amer ican magazines and newspapers give far greater satisfaction than do books"
 A form of war service which is unique and which appears to be meet ing with pronounced results is that undertaken by William Boyce Thomp- son of New York City. MT. Thomp- son has undertaken to send the home county papers to men in the service, wherever they may be, and as- sume all expense connected with the subscriptions himself.
 Steps are now being taken by Mir. Thompson for the purpose of inter- esting others in the home paper plan. He believes that with a full apprecia- tion of the value which would accrue to the nation as whole through close contact of the men in the service of the country and their home con- munities, it will be adopted every where. Some time in the immediate future he plans a meeting which will give the necessary impetus to the work to carry it forward all over the country.
 In speaking of his own experiences away from home, MT. Thompson tells of the big part played by genuine home papers, not the big city dailies but the smaller daily and weekly pa- pose containing personal news in which people away from their homes are most interested.
 "While in Russia last summer and fall l had great longing all the time for the newspapers that I was in the habit of reading" he says: q could always get the big news. There was no trouble about that, but nothing of the intimate, personal intelligence of my neighbors and friends, and I know from this experience that our men will feel cheered and gratified to get their home paper which is record of everyday life in their cities and villag- es. It seems to me that this is the
Mohave County miner and our mineral wealth., 1918-08-17

most simple and direct way of bring ing about the intimate touch between our men who have offered their lives for their country and the communities from which they come."
 MT. Thompson has undertaken to send home papers to every man from Westchester county, where he makes his home, and has already subscribed for more than 2,500 papers, some daily and some weekly. He expects that when all the men from that county are informed of his offer the number of subscriptions will grow to 10000.
 The enthusiasm with which the men in the service of the country have approved of the plan and asked to have papers sent has convinced MT. Thompson that tremendous field for work exists in which every citizen can do something to help. He has offered to take care of the correspondence and the ordering of papers for men in any other section if public-spirited citizens wish to do the same for en- listed men from their sections that he is doing for the men from Westchester county. The offer extends not only to men at the front or in training camps but to sailors at sea, or persons in the ambulance corps, the Red Cross, Y. M. c. A., Knights of Columbus or Salva- tion Army.
 Cities where the war chest plan has been put into operation might easily take up Mir. Thompson's proposition. If they VII advance the funds for the subscriptiog he will extend his own office organization to care for the rou- tine work of sending the papers. MT. Thompson's offer holds good for the entire period of the war.

A letter accompanied by a pie ture came to this office some days back from Nestor Banegas, who is in the motor division of Uncle Sam's service at Camp Joseph E. Johnson, Jacksonville, Fla. His official designation is Private N. O. Banegas, 39 L Go. End Reg. at that place.
 He says that he is very pleased with army life to date and expects to make a name for himself in the service.
 Whether he does or not remains for time to show us, but it is cer- tainly pleasure to hear of per sons with such a set view and it is with a good percentage the best of it that we may predict that one so definitely set to make good, will in all probabilities do so. At any rate, here's good luck to the young man in his endeavor.

New York SOlOns Are
 Still Talking Dry Bills

Albany, N Y, March 11-For the second time this year, New York leg islative committeeman today listened the ratification of the federal prohi- bition amendment. Todays hearing was called on two bills, one to pro- vide for war prohibition in this state except in the case of beer and light wines, and the other to authorize a statewide referendum on the prohibi- ton question. Both measures were sub ordinated, however, to discussion of tho ratification resolution, action on which Is set for tomorrow in the assembly, where a spirited debate is promised.
 The hearing today was before tho senate committee on taxation and re- treEchment. No one appeared in favor of the beer and light wine bill, which was introduced by the committee. Rep rcsentatives of allied temperance in- terests in general way opposed the proposed state constitutional amend ment, claiming that it and all other measures. except the ratification reso- lution, had been introduced simply to dctract from the federal proposal
 Representatives of the liquor trade. both operatives and investors. hotel and restaurant men and organized la Dor argued for either a referendum or submission of a state Constitutional amendment or both. They vigorously opposed the ratification plan.
 The drys had present large dele gation of residents from cities where local option elections are to be held this spring. They declared in favor of the. ratification and said that favora ble report on any other measure would hinder their campaign

adoption in case of army transports, hoiding that even if the vessel when torpedoed settles until her decks arc awash, the lives of most of those on board still would be protected. It IS not believed, however, that this ad- vantage will impress navy construct ors sufficiently to win their indorse- ment.
 The Winterhalter board, it was said today. is now preparing its official re- port for Secretary Daniels.
 When the "buoyancy box" plan was proposed to the shipping board, the prln- cipal objection made was the time which would be lost in equipping ships now in service, as well as in building new ves- sels. Conservative estimates were that from SO to 65 per cent of reconstruction lin service and that an appreciable time must be added to that now required to build new ships.
 This feature was deemed of more iIn- portance even than the admitted sub stantial reduction in cargo-carrying ca pacity.
 in this connection it was learned today that a conference of allied naval coh- stuctors, held soon after the United States entered the war, went thoroughly into the question of unsuitable ships and that the members, with one ex- ception, came to the conclusion that it would be unwise to attempt the construc- tion of torpedoE roof craft. The exccp- tion was the ref sentative of Italy. who described to th conference the type of ship now being tested by that govern ment.

"UNS|NKABLE" SHIP
 NOT ID RECEIVE
 GOOD REPORTS

Washington, March 11.-Naval eN- perts anticipate an unfavorable report from the board headed by Rear Ad- miral Albert c. Winterha1ter, which has just completed tests of the for mer Austrian steamer Lucia, which has been equipped with interior buoy ancy boxes" designed to make her un- sinkable.
 That the ship will remain afloat aft CT receiving injuries which would sink 9 craft of ordinary construction is con- ceded, but constructors are of the opln- ion that the "buoyancy boxes would not prevent a torpedo damaging the vessel to such an extent that she would be of no further value as a supply ship or cargo carrier. In taking this position, naval engineers indorse the decision already reached by the ship -ping board.
 Proponents of the ''buoyancy box" idea are expected to press for it's
