FROST DOES
MUCH DAMAGE

The frost OF Monday and TuesdLy
Of this week has done much damage
20 the fruit crop in this section, al
though in some favored places there
will be at leas- half a crop. But in
many orchards there will be none
at all. While this is disaI pointing and
a loss to the owner. We must not
expect a bumper crop every year.
Had the bloom been as heavy as
usual the 6hmage would not have
been so great, but owing to extreme
heavy crop last season the bloom
was light this year. Failures in this
country are not frequent so we
should not feel discouraged at
loss once in a while.

ARIZONA HARD HIT
BY DRAFT LAW

! Unless congress enacts law chang
ing the method of draft, all of the
Glass l men of Arizona will be ex-
/ hausted before the summer passes.
This means that men with lower class
ifications will be called from this state
/ in order to meet the states quota
under the system now being used.
Other states expect never to be
called upon to go out of Glass 1 to
fill their quotas. Under the draft sys-
TEN now in effect some of the men to
go this month from Arizona will have
to be taken from classifications other
than class l. Long before completion
of the heavy movement of troops this
summer, which announcement from
Washington, says is to be expected,
Glass in Arizona will have been ex-
hausted
Already Pinal county's local board
has notified the adjutant general that
there are not sufficient men in Class
l to meet the present call on the coun-
ty for 60 mnn to be supplied from there
in the two movements that have al
ready been ordered. There are only
80 men available in Glass l in Pinal
NCaAts a VI o-s hASh
will have to be made up from other
classifications.
When the next call comes it is ex-
pected that other counties will show
shortage. There are now 1897 men
in Glass l in the Ii counties of the
state. The quota for Arizona last year
was 447S and according to press re-
ports from Washington the draft this
year is expected to equal, If not exceed
last year.
According to records of the draft
and voluntary enlistments, Arizona
last year sent more than 1000 men into
the army and navy With proper cred
its. it is thought that Arizona should
not be called upon to furnish any more
men this year.
Col. Harris, adjutant general, is pre-
pairing a table setting forth the act
ual condition in Arizona, which will be
forwarded to the provost marshal gen.
eral, which he hopes to have given
consideration in the making of calls
under future drafts.

Amarillo. Texas. and through north
ern New Mexico and Roswell to FL
Paso. The other route would be
through Texarkana, Dallas, Fort
Worth and straight west to FL Paso,
where either proposed route would
connect with the Borderland. OF
course, the Southern Arizona delega-
ton was solidly in favor of the Bor-
derland route and most of the Texas
delegates were of the same opinion.
The convention went on record in
favor of good roads in general and
spent large amount of time in dis
cussion of the subject. The cOnstruc
ton of laterals connecting with the
main highway was urged. The Bank
head highway runs from Washington,
d. c.. to the Pacific coast. passing
through Raleigh, N C., Atlanta. Birm-
ingham, Memphis, Little Rock and Fl
Paso. The exact road TO be followed
between these cities has not been
definitely decided. The highway is
named in honor of Senator John H.
Bankhead of Alabama who has been
consistent good roads booster for half
a century.

NAVAL RAID Great
SUCCESS CLAIMED
(speciaI to The Review


LONDON, April 25.-The Associat-
ed Press elarns from a high naval
source that. the operations at Zee
bruggee were a complete success with
the result that the Flanders flotilla
now will be Obliged to resort to the
Ostend route in putting to sea, from
which the British forces can more
easily handle the German ships In
addition. to the damage done to the
mole and the German guns, material
and shipping, the channel has been
blocked by the cement ships and a
German dredger was destroyed. The
loss OK Jhe dredger, together with
the blocking up of the channel must
result in the speedy sitting up of the
waterway, and it will take at least
several weeks to clear the passage.
But for a change in the wind which
cleared away the smoke bank and
revealed the presence of the British
ships the casualties would have been
much smaller and the operations at
Ostend probably would have proved
as successful as those at Zeebruggee.

hand fighting ensued, the bayonet be-
ing used freely. Six hundred prison
ers we're taken here alone and a great
number of the enemy we're killed. The

Dramtic Tank Duel
In the Boise ID Aquenne, just west
CT Villers- Bretonneux one German Of
ficer, and forty men surrendered to-
day.
In a counter attack large part of
the old British positions about Villers-
Bretonneux were regained. Today
these Germans who still. remained in
the bottle could not get out, and their
comrades were unable to get in
through the narrow neck to assist
them
Durin yesterdays fitting the Ger
mans at one time got as far as Cachy.
southwest of Villers-Bretonneux. and
this represented their greatest adj
vance. The tanks furnished the most
dramatic chapter Of the story of yes
terday's battle. These tanks, which
the Germans employed for the first
time were bulky affairs, with heavy
armor and guns. The British tanks.
which were thrown into the action Off
set the German monsters furnished the
first tank engagement in history. The
main blash between the tanks came
when the German engines attacked
two smaller British tanks. AS might
be expected. one of the British ma
chimes was demolished. The other
was being hard pressed by four or
five of the big enemy tanks, when one
OF the larger British tanks. which had
observed the fray from the distance
came rushing up and engaged the Ger
mans.
Great Battle Royal
1t was a royal battle. The tanks
guns blazed furiously and shells crash
ed from the steel armor in every di-
rection. The British tank finally got
several shots home on one of the Ger
mans and put it out OF action. This
disconnected the others and they fled,
leaving the british tank with its small
er comrade in possession of the field.
Some of the most telling work was
done by the tanks near Cresy. Here
numbers Of small. fast British tanks
attacked a large concentration of en-
emy infantry. Before the Germans
were able to escape the swiftly NOV
tx monsters were among them fir
ing heavily in the dense ranks. The
slaughter was fearful. and the tanks
returned with their sides crimsoned.

Gen. Foch is satisfied" is the report
from France, coming by cable direct from
the chief commanders lips as quotation.
This is the best news so far from battle
field from whicb most of the news the past
month has been bad IF Foch is satisfied,
then all friends of the allied cause ought to
be- no matter how dark it is before the
dawn. 1t is declared by French officers
upon Foch's staff that the allies have the
Germans right where they want them. far
extended into deep and dangerous salient
that they won at too great cost. They must
advance or retreat They cannot stand
still. They are being punished daily in
fightful manner by allied artillery. They
are striking desperately at all sides to widen
their salient Every day the allied lines.
against them grow stronger. Every day
lessons their ultimate chance of success.
They MUST drive on at any cost, and as
they press forward the allied line bends
back, first taking its prescribed toll of
human flesh and blood. And still the al
lies successfully continue this unequal bat
tie without drawing upon the great strate-
gic reserve. When the time comes Foch
will strike; be sure of that 1t may not come
until late fall but it will come, and it is as
sured that American soldiers by the tens of
thousands will help form the hammer head
when the blow falls The longer it is post
poned the more Americans will be in at the
finish.

The calling of such men as Schwab, the
steel magnate; Ford, the automobile mag
nate, and Ryan. the copper magnate, to
high and responsible positions in the gov
eminent war program is fine sign of the
times Ryan, called just the other day, to
speed up the airplane program, has always
been a political enemy of the president.
but that makes no difference now. Ryans
business genius and forceful ability are
needed to change failure into vital sector
of our offense to success. Schwab had al
ready been drafted to handle the shipping
problem, and Ford to speed the building
of submarine chasers. Thus the politician
has called upon the business man to help in
the colossal tasks imposed by world war.
This is as it should be. No nation can sue
cessfully prosecute war today unless all her
great men be called to help direct affairs.
In England they had to summon Lloyd
George, the Welsh peasant. In France
Clemenceau was drafted. And besides
these two great ones, scores of strong and
forceful men from every rank of civil life
have forged to the front in the direction OF
affairs in the allied nations. The stress of
war is a furnace that burns the dross and
leaves only men Of real metal to survive.
Our airplane program is now our single
and greatest weakness 1t has been mis-
managed from the start, and bungled and
delayed. Too much and too optimistic pub
licity at the start hurt it worse than any
thing else Twenty thousand planes were
promised to Europe by April and about
four were sent. With proper management
and the uttermost of efficiency at least two
thousand could have been sent Consider
what two thousand American planes would
have meant during the big German drive.
We have been year at war and our big
men are coming to the front. Allied unity
and supreme effort are now reaching a
point where real results will be attained.
Germany must win right now or lose every
thing
