INDIAN AFFAIRS
 SUB COM|NI TEE
 |S COMING HERE
Will Visit Phoenix Next Month While on Tour of Inspection to Indian Res ervatiOns

A sub- committee Cf the committee on Indian affairs of the house of repre- sentatives, consisting of 1G members of congress, will leave Washington next month for a tour of investigation which will include the principal In- dian reservations and schools in the southwest. The committee will consist of Congressman Homer P. Snyder of New York, chairman; Congressrnen en Charles D. Carter of Oklahoma, Hon. John A. Elston of California, Hon. Carl Hayden of this state, Hon. E. c. Hernandez of New Mexico, Hon. William w Hastings of Oklahoma, Hon. Marion E. Rhodes of Missouri, Hon. Harry Candy of South Dakota. Hon. R. c. Cole of Ohio, and Hon. M. Clyde Kelly of Pennsylvania.
 Owing to the fact that there are more full-blooded Indians in Arizona than in any other state, Mir. Hayden has succeeded in securing an agree ment that the committee will spend more time in this state than in any other.
 Will Be Here May 21
 The congressional party will leave the train at Gallup, New Mexico, on Tuesday morning, May IS, for a two days inspection of the Navajo and Hopi reservations.
 Four days. beginning Friday, May 21. will be spent in the vicinity of
 
 hoped that the committee will have an opportunity to see the Roosevelt reser- voir, to examine the San Carlos dam site and the lands near Florence, Casa Grande and Sacaton, which will be in- cluded in the San Carlos irrigation project when constructed. MT. Hay den has also insisted that the pro- posed reclamation project on the Co., iorado River Indian reservation near Parker be brought to the attention of the committee, and this will be done on May 25.
 This is the first time that so large a congressional delegation has visited Arizona for the purpose of becoming more intimately acquainted with it's Indian problems. The result of their tour of inspection is certain to have beneficial results, because the con- gressmen will acquire fund of first hand information which will be use- full when legislation is proposed for the development of the resources of the Indian reservations.

COTTONS-Stocks Of
STAPLE Goods Lon

Stocks Of sheets, pillow cases,
bleached plain white goods of all kinds,
in fact. the complete ranks Of cotton
goods staples, apparently are extremely
low. Several large jobbers here who
have been. investigating the state of
stocks in the hands of retailers, smaller
Jobbers and mills are confident that
no accumulated surplus exists any
where. In colored goods the situation
Is SAID to be analogous, with every
prospect of the shortage becoming more
acute.
Rumors Of great SURPRISES of cotton
goods in the market are not borne out
by the experience Of large buyers who
are attempting to get goods for future
use. A leading jobber said yesterday
that he has had several buyers out for
two weeks securing the market for
goods without being able to purchase
anything like his normal requirements.
The scarcity of gray or unfinished

had an order for a considerable guam
tity Of $3.50, 1917 Inch print cloths
said yesterday that his buyer had to
pay 2612 cents a yard in order to get
the goods. Current quotations for this
construction have been % cents for spot
goods and 20 cents for later deliveries
for two or three days. Brokers assert
that large buying orders cannot be
executed except at a premium over
open market quotations, because Of the
lack of goods.

JEWELRY-Working Glass
HeQry Purchaser of Diamonds

People Of the wage earning class,
according 70 retail dixmond merchants,
are still the largest purchasers of the
sparkling white stones, despite the
reported economy wave sweeping over
the country. Sales of diamond rings,
pins, lavallieres and other articles
of adornment set with diamonds
to those whose dress and general ap-
pearance indicate their lowly occupa-
ton have shown no signs of decreas-
ing. Added to this are a large number
of people who are converting their
Liberty bonds into diamonds Many
of the retailers are offering to ex-
change Liberty bonds for diamonds at
slightly higher rates for the securities
than are quoted in the open market.
The demand for large, perfect stones
is extremely light according to dealars,
who assert that most of the present
purchasers desire the greatest amount
of "show" for their money and are
content with imperfect stones, worth
around S400 a carat, as long as they
are large and placed in "fashy" set
tings. Average sales of rings, pins.
etc. run from $500 to $500. said a
leading retailer yesterday
Diamond dealers estimate that three
fourths of the worlds supply of dia-
monds is now held in this country and
that the greater proportion is in the
hands of the public. If general bust
ness conditions should slump result
ing in widespread unemployment.
these diamonds will find their way
back to dealers. it is predicted. through
the medium of re-sales and pawning.
No indication of such a movement is
apparent vet it is said
