NEAR EAST RELIEF.

Phoenix, Feb.-F'Or the be- netit of all those individual and organizations which have signi- fled their intention of contribut ing to the Near East Relief but mittauces or pledges, the state committee has secured from the national organization an exten- sion of ten days. This will bring the campaign to a close on March 10.
 All checks and pledges should , be mailed direct to Near East Relief headquarters, Phoenix National Bank building, Phoe nix, Arizona. Lively interest Is being shown in many sections of the state by lodges, clubs and schools as we'll as church or ganizations in pledging funds sufficient to provide for the adoption of one or more orphans. To Arizona has been allotted the task of caring for ,OOO Arme nian children during the ensuing year. Monthly pledges ranging from $5 to $15 are being accept ed; $5 providing food, $1O pro- viding food, clothing and shelter and $15 providing all these and industrial education as we'll.
 Whether Arizona will suc- ceed or fail in it's duty to hu manity in this great cause of mercy depends entirely upon the results received before the close of the campaign" declared Chas D. Willis, state secretary. If all those who have promised to co operate make good there is no doubt that Arizona will go over the top. Unless prompt action is taken, however, this state is doomed to fall down hard in the raising of it's quota of funds. It would certainly re fleet discredit upon this great prosperous state of ours if we are to fail in doing our share to ward relieving conditions which know no parallel in the history of the world.
 If there ever was 8 worthy cause, if there ever was crying need that demanded immediate action that cause is the present plight of the remnants of races now struggling for existence in the Near East.
 America has been called upon to help. It cannot help officially by reason of the fact that these peoples have not yet been recognized as nations. While this fact presents polit- ical barrier it should not and must not interfere with giving. The Near East Relief, incorpor- ated by Congress. has been especially created to carry on the work of relief to hundreds of thousands of famishing wo- men and children, who are bat tling against terrific odds.
 "The way has been made clear to every one who reads just how be, individually, can help, It is the earnest hope of the commit tee that the response to this final appeal will touch the hearts of all broad minded persons, and that the response will be in keep ing with the generousity display ed by Arizona in all other pa triotic and philanthropic drives in which she has taken such a noble part"

NATIONAL BANK RESOURCES.
Country's Great Wealth No Lcnger
 Centralized in East.

Washington, D. C.-The re- sources of national banks of the States of Ohio, Indiana, Illinois, Michigan, Wisconsin, Minnesota and Iowa are greater, foday than were the combined resources .ot all the national banks in the country in the year 1900. This information was made public by the Comptroller of the Currency in a statement showing bank re- sources and distribution of na tional wealth since 1899.
 A remarkable growth has talk en place in the bank resources of the West and Central West. as we'll as the South, said the Com mptrcller's statement, which declared that the gradual dis tribution of the country's wealth and credit is being accom- plish ed to such an extent that where as, in 1899, the national banks in New England and the Eastern States held approximately 60 per cent of the entire national bank resources of the country, today, even in spite of an in crease of more than seven bil lion dollars in their resources, those banks hold only 46.78 per cent of such resources. In fact the State of California has 45 per cent more national bank re- sources today than the total re- sources of all the national banks of New England twenty years ago.
 In the twenty year period cov- cred by the comparative state ment, national bank resources in the Middle West have increas- ed from about S1,OOO, 100000 to approximately $4, 33O, ,OOO, ,OOO more than that sum. In the South this growth has been from $348. 554, 900 to $3, ,O97, 707,- OOO greater. In the Western States the increase has been over 500 per cent, or from about $204, 900, ,OOO to something like $1 ,O25 ,OCO, 900 greater. One of the greatest strides has been on the Pacific Coast, where the in crease has been 134O per cent. or from $12O, 1905, ,OOO to $1 ,62O,- 177, ,OOO greater than it was in 1899.
 The twelve States whose na- tional banks have shown the greatest actual increases during this period have been New York, $4, 358, 5S3, ,OOO increase; Pennsyl- vania, $1,842, 5O2, ,OOO; Illinois, $1 .217,115, ,OOO; California, S1.- OOO,214, ,OOO; Texas, $869, ,611, ,OOO; Ohio, $743. OPS. 900; Missouri, $587, AIS, ,OOO; Minnesota, $568, 115, ,OOO; Massa achusetts, $515,- O3O,OOO; New Jersey, S423. .732,- GOO; Virginia. $396, 554 ,OOO, and Oklahoma. $357, ,722, ,OOO.
 The States that have shown the largest percentage of gains since 1899 have been Oklahoma, with 6537; Nevada, 3275; Arkan- sas, 17OO; Idaho, 1891; Califor- nia. 1885; South Carolina, 1343; North Carolina, 1255; North Da kota. 125O; Wyoming, 1237; South Dakota. 1234; Virginia, 1177; Florida. 1174; Mississippi, 1125; Georgia, 1119; Arizona, 1928, and Texas. 1913 per cent in crease in national bank resour- PQS
