In the basement of the public IL

upon final arrangements for the

are certain-there will be plenty
of good things to eat for the
khaki-clad warriors. plenty OF mu-

mostly on the part Of the home
folks, a speech by Captain o. E.

pretty, adoring mattresses. and, to
top it all on, a picnic for relatives
and friends-that is, a picnic, pro-

into a vigorous offensive to make
his local kingdom safe for some

 |NWORLD BUSINESS
 MAJOR HAYDEN SAYS

That the world has grown smaller since the great War and that inc United States no longer can occupy an isolated part of it, but must take a hand in world affairs and world . business, was the theme of a. brief [ talk made by Representative Carl | Hayden yesterday before the members | of the Phoenix Rotary club at their regular weekly luncheon.
 An effective world peace, one that | will make another great war an i'm 1 possibility. is necessary in order to | fully appreciate the victory the allies and the United States have won. added the speaker.
 The country that spends the money annually 10 support a large army will not be able to compete in a business way with those countries that instead, put their resources into world ex- tension of their trade, MT Hayden explained.
 A tribute to the men at Camp Lewis was paid by Congressman Hayden who, as Major Hayden was attached to that large cantonment Even in his own case he stated, the training received took the waist measure and added it to the chest measure" He
  camp, unwilling and not in sympathy with the government and the war, were Automatically and carefully shown why the country was at war and why they were called into the army and soon these unwilling ones were working enthusiastically and cheerfully in full sympathy with Uncle Sam and his course
 Europe never again will be in a po- sition to start a war, declared Mr. Hayden. Heretofore he said. there had been one chief offender, and with all keeping jealous eyes on one an other, for every keel laid down by Germany, England laid down two. Be- cause it costs about 5000 to support one soldier for year, peace will be a | good thing in cutting down this enor- nous expense. This is one reason. the | speaker stated why practical dsarm- mament is going to be a blessing to | the world.
 But we are going to keep on paying | income taxes, in spite of the end of the war he declared We are never again to know the time when the ex- penses of this government can be met by indirect taxation.
 John B. Brown, superintendent of the Indian school, presided at the meeting yesterday
 Among the guests of the day were two women. Mrs. Bess Cowan, acting assistant secretary of the Atlanta, 1 Georgia. Rotary club, and Miss Dor othy Smith, daughter of W. R. c. Smith, president of the Atlanta Rotary club. Mrs. Cowan and Miss Smith are in Phoenix to spend a few months and are making their home at 9 West Portland street.
 The secretary of the Phoenix Ro- tary club was instructed to send a telegram to the southwestern confer ence of Rotary clubs now in session at San Diego, informing it that the Phoenix club was unanimous in in viting the next session of the confer ence to be held in this city.
