congress for pork barrel" improve ments were diverted to the purpose of reclamation in the west, many thou sands of farms and homes would
 turn up" on what are now barren desert wastes, and that the nation would be richer by millions of dollars.
 Concerning increased productivity from the land, Governor Campbell said that Arizona now produces about four fifths of the worlds output of Egyp- tian cotton. He declared that produc- tion had increased from 1900 to 5000 acres during the last three years.
 Many of the battle planes used in the war were equipped with wings made of Arizona cotton, the governor said Europe ran short of linen with which to make the wings for airplanes, and a special preparations of Arizona cotton was used for the aircraft.
 Arizona is the oldest cotton raising state Governor Campbell declared The aborigines used a weave of the wild cotton. There is no place more favorable to cotton production than Arizona, no other place where the crop can grow for A hours each day. The long, hot summer, the hot days and the hot nights, make the climate especially favorable for cotton growing"

and we were asked to send a commit tee of governors to Washington to meet with the president and such committees as were handling that mat ter. As a representative of the south west. I was placed o nthat committee.
 Tt proved to be wonderful trip to me. We called upon the attorney gen eral and found that he had no defined policy to reduce the high cost of liv- ing. The meeting with him was in- formal and we found that it had been determined to make a searching in quiry into that important question. The attorney general stated that it was his opinion that not more than 10 per cent of the high cost of living was due to profiteering, rather to lack of CO., hesion, lack of cooperation. The committee of governors pledged their cooperation with the attorney gen eral in this work.
 Investigations Here
 'sThe committee of governors was asked to assist the fair price commits sion in the appointment of county fair price committees so that those who have knowledge of the fair and equit- able price of commodities could get to- gether and prepare fair list in their respective communities.
 MT. Riordan, former food commits sioner for Arizona, having stated that he had failed to get cooperation from his former fair price officials, would appoint inspectors of his own. Inves- tigations have already been under way in Pima county and also in this county. In Pima county there was some evi- denee of profiteering found"
 Governor Campbell stated to the Rotarians that he had asked the Ari- zona Retail Association to meet with him this morning at the state house. MT. Riordan and representatives of the attorney generals office would also be there, he stated.
 Must Do 1t Ourselves
 We must go ahead with this work ourselves said the governor "or oth- CTS who may be prejudiced will do it for us"
 Governor Campbell described his visit with President Wilson
 George w. Barrows suggested to the Rotarians that they arrange a program in which committees of citizens would discuss this most important question of the high cost of living. This matter has been going on for almost 40 years, he said, and now had reached a climax.
 President Button announced that an attendance contest had been arranged of which Lee Fitzhugh was chairman Russell Freeman was captain of the Hairys, and Nick Sanders of the Baldys. The contest is to last six weeks.

RECLAIM ALL STATE FUR WHAT WAR COST
 IN O|VLY 36 HOURS

The following special article describ- ing an interview with Governor Camp bell when he was attending the gov ernor's conference in Salt Lake City, appeared recently in the Christian Science Monitor:
 Declaring that the great need for Arizona's advancement involved the reclamation of lands and that the state was rapidly becoming a huge producer of Egyptian or long, -fibered cotton, Gov Thomas E. Campbell of Arizona spoke on conditions in his state in an interview with a represen- tative of the Christian Science Moni- tor.
 Governor Campbell said that recla- nation of all the land in Arizona which could be reclaimed would cost about s160, 100000, equivalent to the sum that the war cost in 36 hours. He asserted that Arizona's reclamation possibilities were the greatest in the country and that Arizona's problems were the nations problems. Accord ing to the governor, more than 15,- 000,000 acres of land in the west could be reclaimed easily.
 The governor stated that if the millions of dollars spent annually by

Any man or woman, or woman not disqualified by character or residence, who wants to be postmaster or post mistress at Wiekenburg had better be in Phoenix one week from next Wedne- day and take civil service examina- ton for the office. The qualification of residence for the office consists of living within the mail delivery of the office
 Politics will be barred from consid- eration in the forthcoming examina- tion. Under the order of the president of March S1, 1917, all first, second and third class postmasterships have been taken out of politics. These offices are subject to a competitive examination of applicants and the appointment must be given to the candidates who receives the highest rating.
 Formerly all appointments to offices of these classes must be approved by the senate, but so far the senate has not withheld it's approval of any ap-

GIVE WATCHERS SLIP; !. COUSINS ARE MARRIED

Carl August Baker and Margaret Shaw, whose relatives attempted to stop their marriage on the ground that they are cousins, were too late. The couple were married Wednesday even ing by Tempe minister, who had not been advised that the girl and man are blood relations.
 Shortly after the license was issued to the couple, the girls brother called on practically every minister and judge in the city in his effort to stop the ceremony. Trains were watched, but the cousins gave the watchers the slip and were quietly married on the south side.
 It is understood that there will be no attempt to annul the marriage.

YOUNG STOWAWAY
 HAS FOUND FRIENDS

Passed from hand to hand. Loretto Pinuella, the Mexican stowaway who came here in the immigration car from Mexico to find his brother, is now the ward of the Arzona Cotton Growers association.
 The boy, who ran away from the cotton camp in Peoria, was brought to town by Constable Rudd of Glendale, where his case was presented to Sher- if John G. Montgomery.
 Montgomery got in touch with the immigration officers, who in turn took the matter up with the cotton growers, who are now protecting the youngster Loretto, whose father twas killed by the soldiers" is an orphan, his mother having died some months ago. The boy came to Arizona with the contract laborers, who were willing to adopt him, but he refused, claiming that he must leave camp and look for his brother, whose whereabouts is not known.

rest in which the east is struggling, was the statement of Governor Camp bell yesterday at the first fall meet ing of the Rotary club held in the American theater.
 Governor Campbell was the princi- pal speaker and his subject was his experience at the conference of gover- nors recently held at Salt Lake city. There was good attendance at the meeting.
 East of the Mississippi and Mis- souri rivers" said the governor, there are not hundreds, but thousands of strikes now in progress. We in Ari- zona should be grateful for the splen- did industrial peace we now are en- toying. We have no strikes so far as 1 know.
 Inquiry Is Determined
 Among the principal questions dis cussed at the conference" said the governor, was the high cost of living, reorganization of the national guard and the labor question. l never en- joyed so popular a conference. We were learning to do things. However, the most outstanding thing of all that was discussed was the high cost of living. This matter was brought to our attention by the attorney general

pointment so made. The National Civil Service Reform league is greatly in terested in the operation of the order and intends to see that-it is obeyed and that the offices are actually taken out of politics.
 In some places it is said, that poli- ticians have endeavored to dissuade persons from taking the examination in order that the appointment may go to candidates whom they would have recommended under the old system. The league urges all persons against whom influence has been exerted to prevent the filing of their applications for these examinations to communicate with the league at its headquarters, at West Fortieth street, New York.

Costly bronzes,. Clipped and mutt

1t is the same in the handsome
residence of Count Andrassy next
door, where squalor and dirt are rap
ipdly replacing the magnificence and
polish OF happier day.
Day by day comes the news Of
increasing violence on the part of
those who are in power. The lates,
instances have to do with Ludwig
Navy, former president of the Hun
garian parliament. He was seized
at his country home and while be-
ing taken into Budapest, was taken
from the train and shot to death by
the Red guard who gave as an ex-
cuse that he was trying to escape.
Altogether the situation in Buda-
pest is rapidly approaching the
point where there will be the Gus
tomary appeal to the great big
hearted America" to feed and clothe
the people. Security of life and
property is growing less with every
week and the once magnificent city
is rapidly taking on an appearance
to which its people have hitherto
been strangers.
Neglect of agriculture is one Of
the outstanding features of the stu
alton. 1t is estimated that 50 per
cent of the tillable soil has not been
plowed, partly due to the disorgan-
ization and decentralization occa-
stoned by an order of the soviet
which forced landowners to raise
the wages of farm laborers from five
crowns to 80 crowns per day, and |
also to give them butter and milk
any charge and to see that
they were properly clothed.
The appeal to the United States
.or help is expected to come chiefly
from the people who have done moth
ng to work what few fields are now
Under cultivation and who never had
many clothes or felt the need for
