TO HAVE
 DAY AT STATE FAIR

Veterans of four wars will meet in a mammoth reunion, the first of its kind to be held in this state, on War Veterans day. Thursday of state fair week, November S1S has been set aside by the fair commission for the occasion which is expected to draw 5000 service men from all parts of the state, in addition ito hundreds of veterans of the civil, the Spanish American and Mexican border wars. The American Legion is responsible for the idea, and at recent confer ence a committee was appointed on general arrangements. This commit tee consists of O. B. Ruggles, Celora M. Stoddard, Neri Osbore, IT,, and c. w. Hartman Preliminary plans were outlined in conference between the committee and the fair manage .ment which assures the success of the undertaking in every detail. Nothing is too good for the service men was the attitude taken by the fair commission and the great war vets were instructed to go as far as they like. The day will be theirs, and they are blaming a series of attrac- tions to make the occasion one which will long be remembered.
 l One of the big features of the day will be an exhibition of trophies from the great war. Hardly man is there who saw service in France who did not bring home with him some memento { of the recent unpleasantness with the Hun. The committee is asking for the loan of all such mementoes, with the result that it expects to assemble the greatest collection of the kind ever i displayed in Arizona. This collection will contain also the flags used by the 15Sth and 34Oth regiments, made up largely of Arizona boys
 An effort will also be made to se- cure artillery equipment, which will be used in demonstrating just how the big guns were used that helped send Heinie running for the Rhine. Life in the trenches will also De shown in con- nection with section of modern trench excavations and contrasted with the trenches utilized in the Spanish-Am- erican and civil wars.
 The event and exhibits are calculated l to give the public a better understand ing of the life of the doughboy and will doubles prove to be the great est get-together of survivors of four
 wars ever staged in the southwest.
 Nominal changes may be made for some of the exhibits and funds raised
 from this source will be applied to the
 state headquarters building fund of the American Legion.

PANAMA CANAL ENABLES FLEET TO GET WEST
 IN IA DAYS LESS THAN
 WAS POSSIBLE IN 1907

San Francisco, August, 5.-The Atlantic fleet on its famous cruise around the world in 1908 was Al days ' hourse enroute from Hampton Roads, Va, to San Francisco. The new Pacific fleet now enroute from Hampton Roads, is scheduled to ar rive at San Francisco in 27 days from the date of sailing. This is one of the interesting comparisons of the two fleets which have been made here.
 The Atlantic fleet went around Cape Horn. The Pacific fleet comes through the Panama canal, not completed when the Atlantic fleet made it's cruise.
 The actual sailing time for the At lantic fleet was 61 days, 19 hours. The Pacific fleet is expected to make the trip to San Francisco in about eigh- teen or nineteen days actual sailing time.
 In 1908 the American navy had no airplanes or seaplanes It had few destroyers and less submarines.
 The Atlantic fleet comprised 16 battle ships with a fiotilla of torpedo boats. The new Pacific fleet approxi- mates 196 vessels of all classes
 When Admiral Evans led his fleet in parade here in May, 1908, his flag ship led but 42 vessels of all descrip+ tions. President Wilson is scheduled to review Pacilc fleet of more than 150 vessels here in August of this year.
 The old Atlantic fleet carried 14,OO0 men. The Pacific will bring 25,OOO.
 The Atlantic fleet was valued at ap- proximately $1OO,OOO,OOO. The Pacific fleet represents expenditures of lsev- eral times that amount.
 Manned By Real Fighters.
 Fighting men and fighting ships make up the Pacific fleet. Just a year ago these ships were engaged in the most hazardous occupations fof the war Official records show the great part they played.
 During July and August year ago according to the report of Secretary Daniels these ships aided in escort ing 3,444,O12 tons of shipping to and from France that was all escorted by American vessels. Of the tonnage in to French ports only 16,9SS tons were lost through enemy action or 0.009 per cent From French ports only 27,S5S tons were lost or O.O13 per cent
 During July and August, 1918, Am erican vessels escorted transports that bore 259,6O4 troops to France. Destroyers Conveyed Shipping
 United States destroyers based on British ports in the same two months supplied 75 per cent of the escort for 31S ships, totalling 2, 752,90S tons. The destroyers were on duty at sea two thirds of the time in all kinds of weather and were under way 16,O00 hours, steaming approximately 100000 miles.
 The American force, based on Gi- braltar, destroyers, gunboats, cruisers yachts and coast guard cutter dur ring July and August were at sea 56 per cent of the total time. They were uner way 15, 300 hours and steam ed 16O,O0O miles.
 The big battleships were with the British grand fleet holding the Ger man navy trapped. Mining units were active on their task, which be- cause of it's danger, was termed suicidal. Submarine chasers and de stroyers were out scurrying the dan- gerous waters hunting submarines, mine sweepers had their hands full and salvage vessels and crews worked in constant danger of German raiders

Mr.. BORAH'S CRITICISM
HELD 'UNANSWERAbLE'
Has Put Issue Squarely Before the
People, Opponents Of
League Assert.

Opponents of the proposed league OF
nations today declared that the speech
Of Senator Borah of Idaho in the Sem
ate criticising the constitution of the
league as now drafted "is unanswer-
able" They said that Senator Borah
had put the issue square before the
people-that the United States may
enter the league, but that it must pay
the price of sovereignty if it takes
this step.
Senator Reed Of Missouri is to speak
on the league of nations in the Senate
today. according to announcement
He, too, will attack the proposed
league.
In his speech yesterday Senator
Borah declared that the league is the
first step in internationalism after
the sterilization Of nationalisn. He
said that it follows q doctrine OF in
ternationalism preached by Trotsky
and the Russian socialists, that from
the first word to the last the constitu-
tion of the league of nations speaks
Of internationalism.
Senator Borah told in parable form
the story of the establishment OF
the American government. He de-
scribed the coming of the forefathers
to this continent and denominated
them as a farmer called America"
This farmer America, he said, de-
termined that the European farmers
should not come onto his farm, and
SO set up wall which has stood
for a hundred years and has been
eulogized by many. Suddenly a new
spirit arises. Lets tear down this
wall" this spirit says.
II shall refer to this spirit as Will
liam Howard" said Senator Borah.
civilian Howard said to the Ameri-
can farmer, 1T will be just the same
with this wall torn down as with 1t
standing up But the American
farmer says, I came to this country
to get away from the system Of these
European farmers But William How
ard persists that it will be just the
same with both systems. He says to
the Farmer America, I ran this farm
myself for a number of years and l
am some farmer and I know what 1
am talking about yet when William
Howard came to give up the control
of this farm only two tenants out OF
forty-eight voted their approval. II
you want to tear down this wall let's
do so by all means, but let's make no
mistake about it,

Prince of Wales Plans.

PARIS, Thursday, February 20.-The
difficulties of arranging a marriage be-
tween the Prince of Wales and Princess
Yolando Of Italy are pointed out today

the Catholic princess would first have to
