CAMP BELL NAMES COMMITTEES TO WELCOME FLEET
Arizona to Be Well Repre- sented as Largest Fleet in Coast History Steams into San Diego

Tn an address issued yesterday by Governor Campbell on the occasion of welcoming the Pacific fleet to the west coast, the governor said: 'sWhen thhe Pacific fleet division majesticaly steams into San Diego harbor August ', ending an ocean-to- ocean voyage through the Panama canal the battleship Arizona will be numbered among the most imposing and formidable armada that ever cast anchor in western waters. A number of years ago the coast was visited by a battlt reet but it did not compare in size or armament with the one now nearing our shores.
 The spectacle will be awe inspiring and the sight one calculated to arouse the pride and enthusiasm of the spec tators who will witness 147 denizens of the deep in battle formation. It is not long since that these same ships were performing their m&sion of war, guarding the high seas against the treacherous U-boat of the Germans and throwing the mantle of their pro lection around the transports which carried our men overseas. That task was well and ably performed and they now symboliZe that Invisible but potent :orce which stands for the protection of the rights of Americans wherever they may be found on the face of the globa
 It is fitting and proper that their advent should be cause for rejoicing and the occasion be made one of cele- hration. The public spirited citizens of San Diego have taken the arrange ments in hand but have asked the peo - pie of other States to join with them in according the officers and men of the fleet a typical western welcome. Many have sisnified their intention of being fn attendance and hundreds of ArizonRns now on the coast will add to the numbers who will represent the state and participate in the festivities. Much to my regret, state business of importance will prevent my attend ance. Plans made before the receipt of an invitation of Martin Kfauber, president of the San Diego chamber of commerce, cannot now be changed. Arizona needs roads and to give i'm petus to the movement and foster it in all ways possible, it is my purpose to make a trip through the northern counties of the statS. However, it is a source of qualification that lofty sentiment calls and will be answered by the men and women of our common wealth in willing persons akin to that when the nation needed their services
