COTTON To De TAKEN
SANE As CASH WHEN
BUYING VALLEY LAND

Cotton now can be used as currency
in buying Salt River Valley lands.
To alleviate the tightness in the cot
ton market, the Dwight B. Heard real
estate office has launched a plan for
accepting almost a limitless amount of
cotton to apply as first payment on
great many tracts of city and country
property which they handle.
They are urging everybody with city
or rural property TO list, to list it for
sale under the conditions that cotton
be taken for the first payment, or in
many cases when the property is not
valued at too much, the entire amount
to be taken for cotton.
Tt makes no difference" said one
member of the office force. whether 4
man comes to the office with a pocket
full of greengacks or whether he has a
ton of cotton in a truck outside. He is
Just as well equipped for buying the
land that we offer if he has barn full
of cotton as if he had money in the
bank"
while baled cotton is preferred" he
added, in many cases We can arrange
for accepting seed cotton
Cotton will be absolutely as good as
cash in the transactions, and no dir
ference in price will be made to cash
buyers the same figure being asked for
property bought by cash or for cotton
This accepting of cotton for cash
tends to help out the local cotton mar
let and provides a good chance for
manv persons to get homes in the val
ley. This office is the second local bus
mess house to accept cotton as cash.

FOR SOLDIERS
COMING HOME?
States Share In the Plan To
Place Fighting Men Upon
Farms Discussed At Meet
ing Held Here Yesterday

What Arizona can do to aid in the
plan Of locating the returning soldiers
on the land was. considered by a repre-
sentative gathering of men at a special
meeting held at the Phoenix chamber
of commerce yesterday afternoon.
Coming from Chicago to meet with
this gathering yesterday was c. L. Sea
graves, the western representative OF
franklin h. Lane, secretary Of the in
terror. Mr.. Seagraves outlined in brief
the plan for the establishment of re
turned soldiers on the land, stating that
practically every allied country had
taken up this work and was inviting
and welcoming the fighting man.
Many Countries Planning
The slogan "A job for every soldier"
has been changed, Mr.. Seagraves said,
to a farm for every fighting man.
The governments Of Canada, Austria
liza and even of England are preparing
places for the man who has fought,
these places to be ready as soon as
peace has been perfected and the for
mer fighting man has been returned,
he stated
What will Arizona have to offer was
the. question asked by Mr. Seagraves
This matter was discussed from
many angles. It was pointed out that
while the state of Arizona had large
holdings of land for settlement very
little of it would be available unless an
adequate water supply was developed.
Land Not Available
State Land Commissioner w. A.
Moeur pointed out the fact that much
land, valuable for farming and other
purposes, was in the state, but that this
land was all within some sort OF re-
serve and not available unless by ac-
ton of the federal government.
1t was agreed by all present that
steps must be taken to present the very
best settlement propositions to the In
terror department for submission to the
commission which will prepare the SOL
diers' allotments.
The meeting expressed the BELIEF that
the best results would be secured by
making small units available for set
Element by soldiers. These units to be
adjacent to communities already devel-
1ped. In this way the benefits of pro-
gress, of close communion with neigh
nors and other social advantages would
he available for the soldier settler un-
der the small unit plan.
Get Arizona Ready
On motion it was decided to appoint
r. committee of nine to be selected by
The chairman, this committee to pre-
pare all necessary information to sub
NIT to the department at Washington
to request the aid Of the next leEisla
ture in due time, and in the meantime
TO take any and all steps necessary &c
convince Washington that Arizona S
ready to offer its best to the men who

1916. The first witness was Madame

classification in the selective draft
under a ruling of Provost Marshal
General Crowder approved today by
Secretary Baker. Such classification
was suggested by Fuel Administrator
Garfield, who holds the view that the
work done by miners is as essential
to the conduct of the war as that of
shipbuilders. ss
General Crowder did not agree with
this view and said in his memoran-
dunn to Mr.. Baker, that If miners, me-
chanics generally, technical students
and others were given the same offic.
ial status as shipbuilders, as has been
proposed, he feared that the class one
of the draft would be so depleted that
it could not form the principal reser>
voir from which men for the armv
were to be drawn.
Under the draft regulations unski'l-
ed industrial laborers without depend
ents are placed in class one, so ua,
skilled miners remain in that class
subject to call as needed. AS mining is
regarded as necessary industrial en-
terprise however, skilled miners
would be placed in class two, from
which General Crowder hopes not to
have to draw men for the army.

evening at a banquet Of the st. Paul
Association of Commerce.
He is in st. Paul representing the
Capital City, and also working for the

Tacoma. Mr., Remission is boosting for
a highway from Winnipeg to the
Black Hills.
Good roads are the best developer
a community can have he said. It's
no trouble to get in crops if you have
a road for them to market
In a letter to The Tribune Mr.. Ken
istOn says that the Red Trail is con-
coded to be the ideal trail to Yellow
stone Park and the coast. The St..
Paul Automobile association is en-
dorsing the Red Trail because it runs
through the famous Lake District. The
Thousand Lake Tourist association,
the hotel and restaurant people also
conceded the superiority of the Red
Trail over other trails to the west
Mr.. Remission hopes to return home to-
day.

F.. The Workers Needed. .
Commenting on this drive, Walter S.
Clifford, managing director of the ma
tional council of defense, in wire to
F. O. Helstrom, secretary of the North
Dakota council, says:
"The workers that are going to
build the nations ships are scattered
across the United States; our immedi-
ate problem is to carry to them the
message that to win the war our first
need is ships and to build ships our
first need is labor. We must have the
best artisans in the United States. We
must have the skilled steady man, ma
ture in character and perhaps in
years, who is willing to move his
family from a cherished home and
break up comfortable habits and fond
associations for a new abode; who is
willing to make these sacrifices be-
cause he realizes that the success of
this nation and the allies is at stake
and only his work, earnest and enthus-
iastic, can bring and early victory to
the great cause of liberty.
''To reach these men, and inspire
them to patriotic effort is the particu-
lar task of the state councils of de-
tense with their five thousand local
councils covering all the important in
dustrial centers in the United States.
They are peculiarly fitted for this
work. They not only reach into every
factory town bu they come into per.
sonal contact with skilled labor. 1t
will be their duty to rouse every COM
petent artison in the country. The
states have already entered energetic
ally into the campaign. Before it is
over eintend to have not only $780,
600 workmen ready to serve in the
shipyards but so many more than that
that the nation can select the best
that as the need for workers crows
the yards will fill with band of

hearts and their muscle into their
jobs for the sake Of their country
