DRIVE TO LOCATE
FALSE RETURNS To
Be MADE SHORTLY

PHOENIX, Oct 25.-A special drive
to locate merchants and manufacture
ers who have followed erroneous
methods in making their inventories
for the taxable years 1917 and 1918,
such methods tending to reduce tax
liability, is about to be made by the
bureau Of internal revenue, it was an
nounced today.
In cases of voluntary disclosures
before Investigations of failure to
make proper return and payment, the
policy of the bureau, it was stated,
will be to forego penalties except
where there is intentional evasion of
the tax, Where discovery is made by
government officers heavy penalties
will apply.
In some cases inventories have
been found to have been taken on the
basis of average costs, though it was
possible to identify the articles re-
naming on hand at the inventory Pc
riod, and so determine their exact
cost. In others, because of conserva-
tive accounting methods, flat per-
centages have been deducted after de-
termining inventory values. Others
use fixed average, based upon costs
of prior years, or fail to include all
merchandise to which they have title
in their inventory.
All of these methods, which have
the effect of reducing tax liability, are
contrary to the regulations of the bu-
reau and are illustrative, it was said
of numerous Irregularities which have
been found.
A warning issued by the bureau ad-
vises taxpayers who have followed
such methods to file correct returns
without notice and without investiga-
ton. Some taxpayers have voluntar-
lily notified the bureau of the employ
ment of incorrect methods, and are
filing amended returns. 1t is only fair
to these taxpayers, the bureau states
that their competitors who have made
similar errors should be located.

new ROAD WILL
GREATLY ASSIST
MINES AT TROY

Important to a number of develop
ing mines in this district is the fact
that $4,000 will be available under
the new million dollar bond issue for
the construction of road from Kelvin
to Troy The new road will afford An
outlet to railroad and shipping facili-
ties to the promising mines northeast
of Kelvin, including the Troy-Arizona,
Pinal Development and Gila Develop.
ment properties. High cost of ship
ping over mountain trails has in the
past greatly retarded development Of
some of the properties of this district,
and mining men who are interested in
the opening up of several potential
mines in that belt are now enthusi-
astic over the outlook. 1t is under
stood that construction of a road lead
ing from the new highway TO the prop.
erty of the White Metals Mining COM
pany will be undertaken in the near
future.

fitting that we should honor him now
dead. l will be glad to do all can
to make the effort to gather funds
for the proposed memorial success"
Part of an Endorsement from James
P. Goodrich, governor of Indiana, just
received at headquarters of the Ari-
zona organization, reads: "At this
time, when the leaven of internation-
alism is working in the land, and not
without certain insidious effect, the
guiding influence of Theodore Roose-
welt is needed as never before. If he
were alive today we know he would
take his stand with the patriots who
are working to brighten, the flame of
intense American nationalism. Since
we cannot have him with us in per-
son, let us commune with him in his
works, rededicating ourselves to the
cause of the flag, one language and
one loyalty"
Arizona has been organized thor
oughly for the work of the campaign,
so that every precinct is working,
making it possible for everybody to
subscribe and become a member of
the Roosevelt Memorial association.

MULLEN IN
CHARGE OF
WORK HERE

w E. Mullen of Ray has been an.
pointed chairman of ,ae local commit.
tee in the Roosevelt memorial drive
this week Mr. Mullen was named to
take charge Of the loca- campaign by
Judge O. J. Baughn, county chairman.

tober II, Col. Roosevelt's birthday
1t is the hope of chairman Mullen
that the residents of Ray will respond
generously to the opportunity now
presented to contribute to the estab-
l1shment of a national memorial to
Theodore Roosevelt, the American
the man who did more to arouse the
spirit of Americanism than any man
Of his time
Judge Baughn, chairman of the
county committee, has announced the
chairmen for other communities in the
county, and in every instance the local
committees are actiy ely at work car
rying on the campaign. c. G. Powell
of Florence heads the committee at
the county seat, Attorney Stovall is in
charge of the campaign at Superior
and D. P Overfield is in charge of the
campaign at Casa Grande.
Col. William Boyce Thompson, One
Madison Avenue, New York City, is
the National Chairman of the Me-
mortal Association. Col. Thompson is
giving all his time to this work, and
yesterday made public statement in
which he said:
every dollar contributed for
membership fees or as a gift will
be used for the purpose for which
it is given. The overhead ma
tional expenses have been pro-
vided for. What we are seeking
in this campaign, which will occur
during the week of October 2027,
is not in the first instance money
but members of the association,
and the initiation fee is whatever
the individual member wishes to
make it, from one dollar up, and
there are no further dues"
1t is this kind of unselfish, loyal
service to the memory of the great
man who has died that warns the
hearts of all of us and brings that CO.
operation which is necessary for COM
plete success. Let us all feel our
privilege and responsibility and leave
nothing undone which we can do to
help
If you have not called on Mr.. Null
len in regard to your contribution to
the Roosevelt Memorial fund, do so
today. There is no other way in
which any of us can SO appropriately
acknowledge the debt which we as
Americans owe to Roosevelt, the
American.

drew a fine of SIS.
Mr.. T. R. Sundberg, master me-
chanic of the Ray Cons, was the Sec
ond one caught, he going through
town not only with his muffler open
but disconnected. lie promised to
keep Ell Buro in r-pair and Judge

Mr.. Sid Cvanaugh, Mr.. Garcia from
Sonora, as well as Mr.. ]. P. Zureta
and Mr.. Gomez, each drew suspended
sentences, for not having their muf-
flers closed.
If Pewee keeps up his good work,
the chances are that Doc will get the

PHOENIX, Oct. 25.-This is the
week, October 20 to 27, when the peo-
pie of the state and nation are sub
scribing to and becoming members of
the Roosevelt Memorial association
The Arizona branch of the national
organization is furthering every effort
to oversubscribe the amount allotted
to the state as a tribute worthy the
man Roosevelt, who left his message
of strong, sincere Americanism for the
golden benefit of this generation and
generations to come.
Endorsements of the memorial move
ment have been received from prom
inent persons in all callings, parties
and classes, indicating that the nation
is back of the movement as Ameri-
cans. One of the strongest indorse-
ments has come from Cardinal Glib
bons. He writes:
"The proposed memorial to TheO-
dore Roosevelt is a source of deep
qualification to u.s. The memory of
Colonel Roosevelt will be always fresh
and green in the hearts of the Ameri-
can people. He was the most con-
spicuous statesman of his day. We

Gun SHOOT IS
BIG SUCCESS
DESPITE QUAIL

From the way things looked early
Sunday morning, it seemed doubtful
whether the Ray Gun club could mus
ter squad. 1t seemed as though
every man and boy who could dig up
scatter gun was out for days sport
with the quail. But nevertheless at
2 o'clock in the afternoon fourteen
gunners lined up at the traps, each
one determined to beat the other fell
low. Mitchell, Asken and Henry had
a try at the dirt birds for the first
time and their scores show that they
viii make experts with practice.
Somehow the shoot Sunday didn't
seem to move along just right and we
were at loss to know what was the
matter until we discovered the fact
that Silent Tony was missing. A
shooter like Tony, who can smash
twenty straight, centering every tar
get as he did two weeks ago, must
have something out of the ordinary TO
keep him from the traps. We fourf
out what was the matter Silent Tony
is the father of fine baby girl Con-
gratulations.
Boyd and Cook tied in Class A, each
with down. Cook won in the shoot
off, dropping but out of 25, while
Boyd lost A. Stretton won the trophy
in Glass B with Is down. Dwyer was
an easy winner in Glass C after slip
ping II.

 and Discounts

New York, July 2e.-Moderate activity and general strength were the striking features of the weekend session of the stock market. All classes of issues shared in the advance except rails, in which Reading was largely restricted to low priced sales.
 Extreme gains in motors and affiliated specialties, oils, equipments and food shares ranged from to 4 points, a few secondary miscellaneous issues rising 8 to almost points.
 Shippings were immediately responsive to news of the settlement of the marine strike and a belated advance in metals coincided with still higher quotations for future deliveries of refined copper
 'Reversals of l to 2 points during the first hour were speedily overcome, main ly as a result of the heavy absorption of United States Steel, which was taken in large individual lots up to 113H, ap- proximating the weeks best Other lead CTS closed within fractions of the days maximum quotations.
 The bank statement presented several interesting features in the contraction or actual loans and discounts by $g7,- . Ooo0OO, decrease of slightly more than $l06, ,Ooo0O0 in net demand deposits and a nominal increase of excess reserves.
 Bonds were irregular, Liberty issues holding steady on light dealings. Total sales (par value) aggregated $5,350,O00 Old U. s. bonds were unchanged on call during the week.
