JOHN |. GUST GIVEN STRONG
 BACKING HERE
Able Man Will Be Support
 ed for High School Board by Many Leading Men; Is Known Throughout State

Greater interest was added to the coming election of a member to the board of Trustees of the Phoenix Un- ion high school by the announcement that John l.. Gust. now in Washington representing the Water Users associa- ton at a hearing before Secretary Lane, is to be a candidate for the posi- ton.
 MT. Gust is very well known throughout the state. He was a candi- date for the office of attorney general in the last election, and is recognized as one of the ablest of the young law yers in the state. A few weeks ago he was elected attorney for the Water Users association. filling the vacancy caused by the resignation of Judge Johesph II. Kibbey
 Mir Gust is a graduate of Northwest ern University.
 He would bring to the board many qualities which would make him an ex- tremely useful member. His legal training. knowledge of educational matters, famindedness and large abil- ity would prove him a very valuable asset to the community on the high school board. 1t would be very diff cult to find man better qualified and able to render greater service on the board than Mir. Gust.
 It is doubtful if he will be able to return from Washington in time to take a very active part in the cam paign. but his many friends will see to it that his candidacy does not suffer on that account.
 The election will be held on Satur- day. March 30. One trustee will be elected 10 fill the vacancy caused by the expiration of Mir. Ceilings term.

 CHIEF WRIGHT ].
 S1RS UP CITY
Prescott Volunteers Say Outside Man Not Needed
 but Apparatus to Help Fight Fire Is Wanted

When Mayor Heap of Prescott wrote to Fire Chief A. F. Wright of this city and asked him for information as to the best method of reorganizing the lire department of the Mile High city and putting 1t upon a wholly or partly paid basis, he started something among the volunteers of his home town. The fact that the Phoenix chief who has brought the local fire department to a state of efficiency unsurpassed in the state, advised the employment of thoroughly competent and experienced fire fighter, seemed to indicate to the Prescott firemen that in order to fol- low this suggestion it would be neces sary to go out of town for their man.
 The suggestions of Chief Wright were quite in line with those of the chiefs of Los Angeles, San Diego San Francisco and Salt Lake City, to whom Mayor Heap had also written. But that did not matter with the Prescott lad dies' wh ofelt that in Chief Triton an entireyl capable officer had been found. So when Mayor Heap a night or two ago presented his views and those of the various chief from whom he had heard, there was a storm of protest and virtual ultimatum that if a man were imported the volunteer companies, four in number would dis band and let the new man go it alone"
 What we need more than a new chief" said one of the men, lis new equipment so that we can go after fires in an efficient manner. With such equipment as we should have we would prove ourselves the equal of any in the country"
 Tn this connection it was reported yesterday that the investigation of the Phoenix fire fighting methods and of the local department made by Mayor Heap, had about led him to believe | that if Prescott was to import man 1 to reorganize it's department, one of | the members of the local department would he his choice

Polling Places and Those Who Will Serve as Off
 cials for Election Are Chosen by Commissioners

When the office of City Clerk Frank Thomas was closed at 9 o'clock last evening 102 new names had been added to the great register of the ap- preaching municipal election by reason of the supplemental registration. This brings the grand total of names added to the great registration since the books were reopened following the pri- mary election to exactly S29.
 With but two days remaining of the supplemental registration it is ex- pected that there will be the usual eleventh hour rush of those who have so far failed to avail themselves of the opportunity to qualify to vote for the candidates for mayor and commission CTS. That the 1000 mark will be passed is now almost certain as there are now required but I'll names to attain this goal.

Carmel Myers at the Hip

Some are born great and others have greatness thrust upon them
 Carmel Myers, an obscure girl of Los Angeles, leaped into fame in one night when the makers of a picture called. My Unmarried Wife" sought her for the type of the girl in the story. Great ness was thrust upon her for she made a tremendous hit in that smart story
 Here she comes today to the Hip in another dramatic love theme, "The Wife He Bought" This one is just as fast as the first one the critics say and is supplied with such an expressing theme that it stands in a class by it's self.
 When Miss Myers as the "girl' is bought in marriage by the man who sets out on a mission to ruin her father, she stills hope of future happi- ness in her girlish heart and settles down to drab life in a deserted waste of place provided by the relentless

PRESIDENT WILSON TELLS WHY HOLLAND
 SHIPS WERE TAKEN

Continued From Page One)
 ionged, the Dutch delegates proposed in order that their ships might sooner be put into remunerative service, that Dutch tonnage lying idle in American waters should with certain exceptions, be immediately chartered to the United States for periods not exceeding ninety days. This proposal was accepted by the United States government, and on January 25, 1918, the Dutch minister at Washington handed to the secretary of state of the United States note ex- pressing the terms of the temporary chartering agreement and his govern ment'S acceptance thereof.
 Wanted 150,0o0 Tons
 This agreement provided, among other things, that 150,000 tons of Dutch shipping should, at the discre- tion of the United States be employed partly in the service of Belgian relief and partly for Switzerland on safe conduct to Cette, France, and that for each ship sent to Holland in the ser vice of Belgian relief a corresponding vessel should leave Holland for the United States. Two Dutch ships in the United States ports with cargoes of foodstuffs were to proceed to Hol- land, similar tonnage being sent in exchange from Holland to the United States for charter as in the case of other Dutch ships lying in the United States ports.
 Agreement But Temporary
 The agreement was explicitly tenn porary in character and, being de- signed 10 meet an immediate situa- ton, prompt performance was of the essence. The Dutch government at once disclosed, however. that it was unwilling or unable to carry out this chartering agreement which it had itself proposed. The first desire of the United States was to secure at once shipping, as contemplated by the agreement 10 transport to Switzer- land foodstuffs much needed by the state. One difficulty after another was raised to postpone the chartering of Dutch ships for Swiss relief and, although the reason was never for mally expressed. it was generally known that the Dutch ship owners feared lest their ships should be de- stroyed by German submarines, even though on an errand of mercy, and though not traversing any of the so- called danger zones proclaimed by the German government. That this fear was not wholly unjustified has unhappily been shown by the recent

 Theodore karle Coming
 Phoenix music lovers will be intro duced to real singing art in the Elks theater. Monday, March p, when Theodore Karle will be presented in concert by Miss Clara Hazard in his first recital in this city.
 Theodore Karle, according to press notices was born. somewhere in north ern Oregon" and was there discovered and taken to New York by Edmund J. Meyer. He sang for Harrison Wild, of the Apollo club, who afterwards said Magnificent, superb Musical Amer ica said "Karle's singing of Faust simply created furore.'
 His voice is a pure and robust tenor of rare quality. even register and with the color and fleXibility of lyric. It has the resonance of Clemont and the sweetness of Mccormack. His breath control and masterful interpretations are nothing short of marvellous. Five years of training and experience in opera, oratoric, concert and recital en- agreements, and as a soloist with sym phony orchestras have given him the certainty you require.
 Gift O Cab" at Columbia
 Talking is an art, especially if a man can talk himself into a fat job, d wife and happiness, as Jack Gardner does in "The Gift O Gab,' which shows at the Columbia theater today and tomorrow.
 In his school days he developed the gift until he was capable of selling gold bricks in a poor house. But he was ambitious to be of other service to the world, so he built tun- nelling machine that would start at one side of mountain and propel it. self through to the other side without mans assistance"
 His gift O gab sold the rights to the machine to big manufacturing firm but they soon found it worthless and instead of building tunnelling ma chimes he was placed on the payroll as a salesman-because of his gift O gab.
 Then, after an exciting series of ad- ventures, he finally wins the hand oi Peggy, whom he had met and courted despite her parents objections, in his college days. The wedding occurs in a hospital where the couple have ac- cidentally met as patients. How man can talk himself into and out of trouble is the theme of the

Girl Plays Dual RoIe

A new William Fox play with Gladys Brockwell as the star will be presented at the Empress theater today. It is called 'The Moral Law" and is one of the most remarkable dramas that has been put upon the screen. It is only necessary to announce the ap- pearance of the brilliant star, Gladys Brockwell, to excite interest.
 In the new drama, Miss Brockwell plays dual role of two sisters who look almost exactly alike. They are however, as unalike in character as it is possible to imagine.
 The plot deals with a man who leaves all of his wealth to a high minded and charitable daughter who is about to be married. The father had, however a wife whom he had di- vorced because of her vicious tempera- ment, and she and her daughter live in a South American capital in the midst of evil and degraded surroundings. The father cut off both in his will with one dollar each. The high minded daughter fearing that an injustice may have been done, goes to her sister to divide the money. What this fine and high minded girl goes through before she is again reunited to the man she loves form the basis for the absorbing story that follows
