 MESSAGE TO SOtONS

PHOENIN. Ariz.. May 2l.-The third Arizona legislature met in ex- traordinary session this morning to enact war legislation. Five members of both houses were absent. three by reason of illness and two being en- gagged in war service in France.
 The legislature was primarily called together for the purpose of extending the franchise to Arizonans engaged in military service beyond the bounder- ies of the state. But for that there would have been no session. Govern or Hunt in his call included many Gth- er matters. such as legislation for !, safeguarding the civil rights of Ari- zona soldiers and for providing for a moratorium for them during the pc riod of the war Recommendation is ! also made for putting the state coun- , cil of defense on legal basis and making appropriation for its expenses 1 IL is also recommended that relief be afforded the dairies in this state which relief is expected 10 be afforded by a regulation of the condenseries which handle the greater part of the mild products snd so fix the price

 Tt is individuals of this type which I have vainly tried to depict who have sown the seed of blind prejudice. of class dissension and of malicious falsehood from which the state of Ari- zona during the past year has reaped a hapless harvest of strife eliminating g in such shameful events as the de portations at Bisbee and Jerome Concerning the Bisbee deportation the governor said:

There are some Germans who,

meant what they swore to. In one
county Of Pennsylvania. thickly popu-
lated with people who came from
Germany. but came with the determ-
nation Of identifying themselves with
their new home. they have conclud-
ed that the preaching of sermons in
German IS unpatriota and they have
voted against a continuance Of the
practice. some so-called Americans
are hesitaling about restricting the
teaching OF the German language in
the American schools, while the Ger
man who asked the privilege OF be-
coming an American citizen is ask
ing that every connection with his
