NEW SERVICE FILLS
 DEMAND FUR WOMEN

Demand for women in industry is be- ing demonstrated every day in the week by the calls that come from busi- ness and professional mon and women in the homes to the Woman's diyi- sion of the United States employment service
 Mrs Ruth Biddings, the examiner in charge of the office located at IT North Second avenue, unquestionably efficient, has already gained 8 reputa- ton among the business people by her faculty of placing the right girl in the right place"
 The new department, tried out in other sections of the country, is at tracting wide attention. Alice Field NeWkirk in a full page article in the current number of the Ladies Home Journal discusses the possibilities of nmplOyment for women as revealed by
 he work of the woman's division. The Journal in this issue is generous in featuring the work of this department, running also a full page article by Dudley Harmon, Must l Go to Work, . which deals with the demand for women in industry.
 The work of the woman's division of the United States employment service for the state of Arizona since it was established in Phoenix several years ago has given evidence of the need Of the service here. A large number of women have been placed in various lines of work, covering such wide fields as teaching. nursing Grained and practicaD, stenography, bookkeeping, general office work and domestic service.

FIGHT FOR CUSTODY
 IF CHILD STARTED

Pending the decision of Judge A. $. Gibbons of Apache county, little Violet Menderil will remain in the custody of MT. and Mrs. Frank Ram sey.
 The childs grandmother Mrs. Mary 'Sibert, is seeking her custody and brought the mater to the attention of the court by habeas corpus pro- ccedings. The grandmother has en- deaVOred to bring action before three superior court judges, each proving disqualified. She was heard for the first time yesterday, although the case has been in court several months
 Judge Gibbons sat in division one and heard the story told by the Ram seys who appeared without counsel. They showed the court the court or der they had received from Judge stanford for the custody of the child who was taken from the Children's Home. They declared they had ap- piled for adoption papers but had not succeeded in having final action taken when the habeas corpus proceedings were instituted by Mrs. Sibert.
 Mrs. Sibert claims the child was only placed in the Home while she was too ill 10 care for her and that it was with the understanding that she would be returned to her relatives when they could give her proper attention

.Ph0enl;r's s Best Store

Good Morning.
 This "Ad" is not intended to sell anything, but to tell you about another step forward in service and eff ficiency.
 It is a little talk about a new device which you will find installed in our Silks and Dress Goods Sections, on the main floor.
 On the various counters, you'll find a little black enameled machine, with two spaces on top. One of these spaces looks like a clock face, and the other like a multiplication table. It's called a
 "MEASUREGRAPH" and it's purpose is to assist us in giving purchasers of yard goods the exact meas urement and charging them the correct price ON EVERY PURCHASE. With the aid of the "Meas- uregraph", our people can accurately measure any number of yards or any fraction of a yard. They can tell you the exact cost of, say 11$s yards of silk at $2.65 a yard-instantlv and with absolute ac- curacy.
 It means that you can be waited on more quickly than heretofore-a vital consideration in these busy times.
 There are two Measure l
 graphs in the Silk and Dress Goods Sections. or the Main Floor, and they are fairly expensive little devices. But expense is not considered with us. il it points the way to better service.
 First in adopting many c0nveniences for the shop ping public, this store i: also first to install tht "Measuregraph.' y
 To paraphrase a famou. advertisements: w, couldn't improve the fab rics, so we improved th' method of selling them.

The Jugo-Slav State.

1t is announced that new govern
ment has been formed at Belgrade
by representatives of all the Jugo-
Slavs. comprising Serbia, Montenegro,
Bosnia, Herzegovina, Dalmatia, Croa-
tia and Slovenia The title of this
new organization, it is stated, is the
United Serbian -Croatian -Slovene king
dom. This indicates that reputed
republican movement among the Jugo-
Slavs has not eliminated and that their
union will be under monarchical form.
OF the seven groups thus joined into
a single government only two-Serbia
and Montenegro-were previously au-
tonomous. Bosnia, Herzegovina, Dai-
malta, Croatia and Slovenia were
provinces or districts of Austria Hun
gary. Yet there was always the ut
most unity of spirit between these peo-
pies. During all the years of Turkish
tyranny and Austrian misgovernment
and oppression the Slavic peoples re-
tanned their love of independence,
their sense of nationality, and looked
for the day when they could be united

organization denotes that the Jugo-
Slavs will present to the Paris confer

The Senate and the Treaty.

Former President Taft, in a signed
article on the subject of the league of
nations, says:
''The proposal of league of nations
should not be fiouted because the mem
bers of the Senate are justifiably in
dignant over the way in which the
President has ignored them and Con-
gress in this matter. When he returns
with treaty providing for some kind
of a league of nations to maintain
peace the people are not likely to be
interested in the personal soreness
of the Senate or to accept that as any
factor in judging the treaty"
There seems no warrant for assum-
ing that senators now discussing this
subject are influenced in their deliver
anees by personal soreness" Dis
cussion is in order. No subject is
more interesting anywhere. Why
should not senators, invested as they
are with part of the treaty making

Labor and Reconstruction.

Speaking Saturday before the Senate
committee on education and labor,
President GomperS of the American
Federation of Labor said ''the people
would not countenance industrial stag
nation after the war;" and added:
"There can be no repetition in the
United States of the conditions that
prevailed in 1890 and 1894, when men
and women were hungry for the want
OF employment"
Those conditions were produced by
the result of the elections in 1892. The
democratic party that year carried
both presidency and Congress on low
tariff, an multiplication, pledge. Al
most Immediately business began to
take in sail Big manufacturing con
Germs reduced outputs. Some halted
outright. The very prospect of an as
sault on protection made capital ner-
vous.
In 1894 the assault was made, and
proved as injurious to business as had
been expected. The German Wilson
tariff revision was hodge podge af
fair-a low tariff measure dashed with
proteetion-and intensified the ner-
vousness of the previous year. Genu-
inc stagnation set in. Many wheels
stopped turning. Soup houses were
opened and bread lines formed. In the
slang of the day, both capital and labor
found themselves sup against it,; and
not until 1897, when the republicans,
who had swept the country the year
before, put an out-and- out protection
law on the books, did business fully
revive and capital and labor again re-
turn to their own.
The party of protection won at the
polls in November. The Sixty-sixth
Congress has a mandate to revise the
tariff on protection lines. How far it
can go toward obeying that mandate
depends. The President is "on the
other Law" As he is an anti-protection
ist, it is not easy to see how a tariff
measure drafted on straight and log
zeal protection lines could receive his
signature; and the republicans will not
have strength enough to pass one over
his veto.
Clearly, however, the republicans,
before the summer of 1920 should, and
probably will, send such a measure
to the White House, and formally take
the Presidents judgment on the mat
ter. If be signs, well and good. If he
;yetoes, the issue at once becomes proni-
nent in the presidential campaign then
opening.
The promise of a revision of the
tariff on protection lines has never de-
pressed business, and no such revision
when made has ever failed to hearten
business, or lift it up when depressed.
Soup houses and bread lines are not
associated with the protection policy.

made, either personal or political.
There are many senators ON either side
of the chamber any one or more of
whom would have served with great
distinction at Versailles. They possess
learning in both law and diplomacy,
and have been repeatedly elected to
Office by highly intelligent constitu-
encies. But there is no sign or sound
suggesting that they are simply "kick-
ing at having been passed over by
the President in the forming of the
peace commission. The slight may
prove of advantage to them, the Sen
ate and to the country. They Will be
the frcer when the time comes to pass
upon what they have had no part or
lot iii framing.
As there is no politics in the bust
ness now. there is no prospect that
politics viii appear when the vote on
the treaty is taken. The President
could ask no better fortune, either for
himself or his party, than an opposl-
ton in the Senate demonstrably po-
litical He could take the issue into
the campaign of 1920, and capitalize
il at a handsome figure.

of the seas" "the removal of economic

they stand are cryptic. The puzzle

Theodore Roosevelt.

Theodore Roosevelt, judged by sny
standard and on world scale. was a
very remarkable man. He had great
and varied gifts, and employed them
to high and noble ends. He wrote
we'll. He had trained himself to speak
well. His energy was extraordinary.
He aimed at, and attained, excellence,
His nature was warm. He loved his
friends, and they him. His courage,
moral and physical, was dauntless. IN
some particulars. he was the most
striking individual of his generation.
Older men advised with and followed
him. Younger men, and especially
those of adventurous blood, heroized
him.
He was first and foremost po,iti-
elan, in the large and most honorable
sense of that word. When little more
than Had, and fresh from school, he
was a New York assemblyman. At
forty-two he was President of the
United States. Between those two
periods and places he had packed a
very large amount of public service,
and had earned, and enjoyed, wide ad-
miration.
In the White House he became a
world figure. He rose to his Office and
opportunity. He loved the country.
and wanted all nations to love it. He
occupied himself with big things He
achieved big things. He built the Pan
anna canal. He sent the fleet around
the world, to show the world what we
had in the shape of Navy. He was
a friend, and very Jealous one, of
both the Army and the Navy, and
served in the former at a critical time
in the country's history.
At sixty he departs, suddenly, and
to wide regret His passing will arouse
the deepest sympathy, both at home
and abroad. He was known wherever
America is known, and appraised at
commanding figure. His Americanism
was as distinct and luminous as Lin
coins, and will preserve his fame to
late generations.
