ARREST LOCAL.
 MAN ON CHARGE
 IF bOND THEFT
to Have Taken Liberty Bonds from Safe Of Tempe. Hay Dealer Now Under Bond on Fed eral Charge

Clifford Smith, advertising man and expert accountant, was arrested last evening, charged with the larceny of s2,100 in Liberty bonds, the property of A. J. Peters of Tempe, said to have been stolen from his safe while Smith was in his employ last May.
 The authorities believe they have positive proof of Smiths guilt through the tracing of the bonds, one in par ticular which Smith is alleged to have given a woman.
 The woman, whose name was not made public. is alleged to have received the bond from Smith without the knowledge that it was stolen property. She negotiated the bond at local brokerage concern, and when it passed through a bank it is said to have been identified as one of the bonds stolen from Peters safe at his place of Dusi- ness in Tempe. Several other bonds, it is claimed, have been traced through the banks of this city.
 The warrant was issued out of the justice court yesterday, charging Smith with grand larceny. Behind the ar rest is the story of Smiths alleged ac- tivities at the time of the arrest of Peters, his son, Vernon Peters, and Inspector Jaggers of the Hay associa- tion, charging them with conspiracy to defraud the government The gov ernment action last June, a month after the alleged theft of the Liberty bonds, came as sensational surprise, Peters for years having been recognized as one of the leading citizens of the community. He was alleged to have sold a certain class of hay to the gov ernment which was not of the grade represented and Jaggers was charged with passing the hay and sharing the profits. Peters immediately furnished the $30,000 bond required, while his son gave $10.000 and Jaggers was released on $15,000 bail. The cases have not yet been tried in the federal court, where the defendants will be represented by | Bullard S, Jacobs, Judge W. l.. Bar mum and Ward & Griffith.
 Since his arrest Peters has had little | to say about his case The first rumors of Smiths connection came yesterday after the filing of the warrant
 | Clifford Smith is a married man and has two small daughters. He was em- i ployed by Peters as a clerk, but very
 shortly after the bonds were stoler
 from MT. Peters. Smith left for the
 coast. He remained at San Diego fol some time, later returning to Phoenix

NEED 7,000 MORE COTTON PACKERS IN
 ARIZONA DISTRICT

In spite of the importing of 4,0O0 aliens into Arizona to assist in the handling of the 1919 cotton crop, 1000 more cotton pickers are needed, ac- cording to the official figures made public yesterday by E. T. Mccoy, ex- aminer in charge representing the United States employment service in this city Labor in other industries is scarce in corresponding degree, ac- cording to MT. McCoy's report, wired to Washington last night.
 With respect 70 the importation of Mexicans to assist in handling the long staple crop, MT. Mccoy explained that 12,500 permits have been issued jointly by the federal employment ser vice and immigration service under the provisions of a memorandum is- sued by Secretary of Labor Wilson on July IT of this year. This memoran- dunn is revival and a revision of departmental order of June 12, 1913, cancelled January 15, 1919, by which alien importations were permitted for agricultural work. rail maintenance and mining labor.
 The present memorandum authorizes the importation of aliens as agricul- tural laborers in the cotton growing sections of Arizona alone.
 Mexicans are arriving in Arizona through the ports of Naco and Nogales and in the California fields through Andrade.

A MEMORIAL

A fountain has been placed in the
park in memory of our local fallen
heroes, Howard Bean and Alfred
Goodwin. Their names are to be in
scribed on vases which are a part of
the fountain. When completed it will
be lasting testimony to our regard
for their supreme sacrifice.
The Civic League has taken the
initiative in starting this movement.
The small amount of about $500 is to
be raised. So many persons of Oakes
and community have expressed their
desire to participate in the erection
of this memorial, that the society has
decided to give them a chance to do
so. e. Naylor, the Home Hotel and
Roberts pool room will receive
money. If you wish to have a part in
honoring the two young men of our
community who laid down their lives
for us, hand your contribution to one
Of the above named business houses.

ERECTION OF NEW CHURCH
BUILDING TO BE RUSHED
Finishing Touches Being Put on
Plans for. Edihee to Cost
About $4,000

Plans are we'll under way for the
erection of a fine $4,000 Presbyter.
ian church to be built on the site of
the old one.
The need Of a new church building
has been recognized for this congre-
cation for some time. The Sunday
School has grown to such an extent
that it has been hard to house all the
classes and the little folks have been
pushed here and there not to the lik-
ing Of the teachers. Since last win
ter they have been holding their.
classes in the basement Of the city
hall, which is used as Jail, some
thing not needed in Cakes except for
outsiders, and it has not been any
too inviting place for the pupils or
teachers to be proud of.
Led by the new minister, Rev. w.
M. Grafton, the congregation is unit
for the new building, Over $4,000
were subscribed by the few members
and adherents of the church so far
seen, and the enthusiasm with which
the project is being received speaks
for it's success.
The building committee is composed
of Rev. Grafton, A. p. Guy, H. J. John
son, F. A. Espeland, A. r. Wright,
Mesdames Brown and Elmer. This
committee has engaged Mr.. Shannon
Of Jamestown, architect, and sketch
of the new building is promised for
Thursday of this week. The board of
trustees already has notice in for
sale of the old building. which must
be moved before work on the base.
ment can be started.
The plans of the builulng will be
made public soon as received and ac
ceDted.
