State Food Administration
 Delighted With Ready Re-
 sponse of People In Saw ing of Food for Fighters

That Arizona has more readily com- piled with food conservation require ments than any state in the union is the belief of George Smalley, secretary of the Federal Food Administration de- partment here. who last evening re- turned to Flagstaff after two days in going after matters in this county. MT Smalley says that compliance With food conservation requests and CO., operation in the programs outlined from Washington through the head quarters here has been so instantaneous and complete that the Federal Food Administrator has become ultra care ful in making requests for he knows that whatever is asked will be complied with.
 MT. Smalley had many interesting things to say about the work in this state and about coming regulations. He can see no relief in the sugar situation but believes that the amount of food sacrificing the American people are called upon to do has really amounted to nothing compared with what the people of allied nations have had to put up with.
 One of the things anticipated is the manufactuee of Victory flour with a quarter of substitute for wheat already in it. By this means all requirement for substitution would be done away with, the flour itself containing the right amount of wheat to see the nation and her allies through.
 T never saw people as willing as those in Arizona to do even more in food saving than is required,' said MT. Smalley. They are simply fine about it. Often we receive orders from head quarters which we do not believe prac- tical for this state and we do not hesi- tate to request that they be disregarded for Arizona and we always are given such permission for the National Food Administration is very intelligently op- erated and they allow us to use our judgement. This spirit has taken hold of the people and we could ask for no better cooperation than we arc receiv- ing. It is simply great"

WanGedy Mexican Hairless C anime
 Having Red Hair

Who has a Mexican dog with no hair on body except red hair on his head and the end of his tail and feet?' Don't all speak at once.
 MT. Earl Bracy of 912 Paris street. Cartervllle, Illinois, is highly desir- ous of possessing such an animal and while he might have saved words by asking the Phoenix post master for Mexican hairless doo rather than "Mexican dog with no halr,' yet his intention is the same and is understood.
 MT. Bracy wants a male dog not under one nor over two years old and weighing about 20 pounds. For said dog he will pay hard, cold cash and, in a pinch would take a dog with a "blue skin" or even with black skin even if the canine should happen to have tufts of black hair upon head, tail and feet.
 The postmaster has had some odd requests but this is the newest and latest in the list. Nowhere in the postoffice has he found a dog to fill the bill and so has asked The Ari- zona Republican to locate one, own CT to write to MT. Bracy and thus lift weight of care from the brow Of said postmaster,

There the matter stood until Saturday when q conference was held, attended by Judge Stanford and County Attorney Laney The answer from General Crowder was read. The wire in substance said Addis was not yet in the army and laid tho matter open for some decision by the county authorities. MT. Laney investi- gated the charge against Addis ant found that the evidence against hin was not by any means complete.
