TO SOON START STEAM
 SHOVEL OPERATIONS

JEROME, Oct 4-Laying of rails for the extension of the Verde Tun- nei and Shelter railroad from the Hopewell tunnel was begun Thursday. The extension will be finished up to the United Verde 500-foot level, three miles from Hopewell, by the railroad route, by the fifteenth O. November.
 This means that the United Verde will be able to make an actual start on its long planned steam shovel op- erations by December or soon after.
 The Marion shovel ordered carly last summer has been at Clarkdale for two months. When the rails are laid up to the 500 level the shovel will be conveyed over the tracks to that place and then hauled up the hill to the 300 level. By that time rails will be laid above the 300 level at least to the United Vcrde's l60-foot level, where steam shoveling is to start.
 Some time must elapse between the time when the railroad is built up to the 800 level and its completion to the 300. where the Jerome depot IS to be located There is big fill to make across the creek, but otherwise there is little work to be done on the roadbed. It is probable that trains will he running between ie- rome and Clarkdalc before early next year.
 William B. Arndt is making rapid progress in grading for the switch back railroad from the 300 level on up to the mine. As stated above. rails will soon be laid up as far as the 160 level
 Reference has been made frequent lv to the steam shovel plans of the United Verde. which are designed to increase the copper production of that company. The hill between the present mine office building and the U. V. & P. station is to be shoveled away. dropped into the mine and hauled to Clarkdale, for it is all low grade copper ore. Eventually the ground on which the office building itself stands will go. Where the mine buildings are now will be noth- ing but q vast hole in the ground.

PRICE-MARKING SUS-
 PENDED FOR THIRTY DAYS

PHOENIX, Oct 3.-Opcration of the much-contested rule promulgated by the State Council of Defense Aug ust Is, requiring all merchants ito plainly mark both the cost and sell ing prices on all articles offered for sale" has been suspended for 30 days. This action was taken at the meeting of the council yesterday. It was the result of the passage of the following resolution:
 For the purpose of obtaining fur ther information from the National Council of Defense and the national war industries board as to the bes, and thorough plan to check profiteer- ing in merchandise in the state of Arizona. without serious disturbance to legitimate merchandising, the operation of the resolution adopted by this council on August E last, re- garding marking cost and selling price on merchandise, is temporarily suspended for a period of not les, than a days"
 It is understood that merchants from all parts of the state had sub mitted a sort of compromise where by they agreed to the terms of the rule so far as about 100 staple arti- clcs were concerned They sternly protested against tln application ot the order to all merchandise.
 Urgent representations on the part of real estate men and builders in the state brought about the appoint mcnt of committee to secure from the war industries board at Washing ton a .lesscning of the building re- strictions. SO far as they related to building in this state This commit tee. consisting of Homer R. Wood, William Naglc and Dwight B. Heard, will make it clear to the Washington authorities that Arizona IS very young state and that its needs in the building line probably are greater than those of any other state in the union. \ less drastic ruling than that which limits farm construction to Sl.0OO and extension and repair work to $500 is to be earnestly demand cd

ERNEST LOVE IS LISTED AMONG
 TKE MISSING
YOUNG PRESCOTT AVIAT- OR FAILS TO COME BACK AFTER ENGAGEMENT OF SEPT. 15TH AND PAR ENTS ARE NOTIFIED.
(From Sundays Daily)

Allen Love yesterday evening re- ccivcd a telegram from the adjutant general at Washington, D. C., stat ing that his son, Lieutenant Ernest A. Love of the United States aviation service had been missing since Sep tembcr l5, following an, engagement on the French front. He was known to be one of the bravest birdmen in the service, and his friends in Pres colt are of the belief that he may have penetrated the enemy lines to a depth too great for his own safety and that he was merely captured by the Huns.
 Mrs. Love, mother oi the missing officer, is at the present time visiting with friends in Raton, New Mexico, and the sad news was relayed to her last night by the husband and fath- CT. Ernest had written a long letter to his parents-the missivc being re- ceived here yesterday-in which he mentioned the fact that the division of airmcn to which he was attached had recently been cited for bravery at the front. the lad facetiously remark ing that had he been connected with a French squad, he would in all probability have received several medals for his daring work.
 Lieut.. Love was nearly g years of ace. and had enlisted in the flying corps about a year and a halt ago For a long time he trained in the United States and was then sent to Italy. near Rome, to complete his work. In July he was sent back sup poscdly to France to join the Ameri- can Expeditionary Forces, and since that date his exact whereabouts had been unknown. The letter received vestcrday mentioned the fact that he was hard at work smelling the Huns where ever he got chance, and told of how he had made an aerial trip into enemy territory to shell Ger man train which was trying to get out of the way of the advancing Yanks.
 Howard Morrow, another Prescott youth, reported missing several months ago from the Canadian con tingcnt with which he was identified, has been given up for dead, it being the belief of his friends that had he been captured his name would have turned up before this in the lists ot prisoners. which are issued by the Huns from time to time.
