SONG RECITAL AT SALEM.

The recital given by Mrs. Mann and
her Atlantic City pupils in Salem M.
e. Church on Thursday evening, was
a very delightful affair. Much credit
is due Mrs. Mann for her kindness in
giving the recital absolutely free, SO
that the Pipe Organ Fund of the
church received the benefit. $42 were
realized in the voluntary offering.
The ladies' chorus was well main.
tanned. and the work of the s%oloist
Mrs. Helen Williams, was greatly ap.
preciated. There a quite a large
and representative audience.

Operators in the eastern fields are
seeking for new territory as ncer be-
fore. The adavnce in the crude mar

are anxious for greater production.
PRODUCERS with settled production
are experiencing greater prosperity

many sections where there has not

Is true of the old Smiths Ferry dis

In West Virginia the prospects for
strictly new producing territory are
more promising. There is more work
under way and starting in West Vir-
ginia than in southeastern Ohio and

yolopment is that in Kanawha county.

DEFENSE WORTH PAYING FOR.

No class of men in the United States have been harder hit by the increased cost of living than the officers and men of the navy and the regular army. And though we are not yet at peace, there is no interest more neglected by Congress than that of these defenders.
 Whatever attractions the regular services may offer enlisted men, m health, travel, education, chance Of promotion, they must compete with civil employments that now pay high CT wages than ever before. The case of the officers is in one way even more critical, since they have devoted years to professional education, are married or at an age when they should marry, and ought, for the coun- try's good. to stay long in the service. Yet unless they have private means, how can they, with the present scale of pay?
 Congress shows a willingness to CO., ouet with a proposal to bond the coun- try for from $2,OOO,OOO,0O0 to $5,- OOO, ,OOO, ,0OOO to pay a bonus to men of the A. E. F., because that is suppos- ed to mean a great many votes. It is treating the question of army and navy pay the familiar flimfiam of an elaborate game of cross-purposes be tween the House and Senate.
 If in a world so lately at war and not yet settled down to peaceful ways defense is worth having, it is worth paying for Army and navy officers cannot be improvised and they cannot remain in he service unless they re ceive living wage.

 Whooping Cough killed 6; Scarlet fever, 2; Diphtheria and Group, 15.
 The heaviest mortality was from tuberculosis. These deaths totaled 479, a little more than 23 per cent of the total. Most of these should not be charged to Arizona, however, as they were non-resiuents who came to Arizona seeking to better their con dition.
 Next in number was 1S6 babies under two years of age who died of diarrhoeal troubles. Most of these deaths could have been prevented and a large portion of them were due to ignorance or carelesSness. There were also 127 deaths, mostly of new born babies, from congenital debility and malformations Many deaths of this character result from improper care of the babies or their mothers. Blood poisoning following childbirth caused F deaths and there were 20 deaths from other puerperal accidents. Pneumonia caused TIC deaths from which 40 were from bronchO-pneumo- mia. Influenza caused only 20. Bron- chitis caused 10 deaths of which 6 were from acute attacks.
 Bright's disease caused 6S deaths; cancer 63; old age 43.
 There were 145 violent deaths of which were homicides and were suicides. Of the accidental deaths. the causes were: Gunshot wounds, AT; mines, 33; railroads, 10; horses and horse drawn vehicles, 13; automo- piles, 4.
 Typhoid fever killed 2S. These were reported as follows: Apache, 6; Cochise 1; Greenlee, l; Maricopa, 9; Pima, 3; Yavapai, 4; Yuma, l. There were no deaths from typhoid fever in Coconino, Gila, Graham, Mohave, Navajo, Pinal and Santa Cruz counties

DENT.

Since the New York World came out and declared it's preference or Herbert Hoover for president there has been wide discussion Of MT. Hoover throughout the country. This discussion has developed a strong sentiment for this most capable man in whom there seems to be unbound ed confidence in his ability to direct the destines of this country to the best advantage during these trying times of reconstruction. MT. Hoover cannot be rated as a politician and on this account the professional poli- ticians in the democratic or repubh- can parties are not warming up to his candidacy. The opposition of poilu- clans will of course be a strong fea- ture operating against the success or MT. Hoover, but it might be that this fact could be used by the friends or Hoover in arousing the great mass or the people for him.
 In Arizona there IS a growing sen'i ment for Hoover. One may hear the frequent expression that men would vote for Hoover regardless of the ticket on which his name might ap- near as a candidate for president.
 The Messenger, regarded as one or the strong democratic influences In Naricopa county is saying some m:gn- ty rice things about MT. Hoover ana his probable candidacy on the demo- cratic ticket for president.
 The announced intention of J. H. Calvert, of this city, to take the lead in the formation of Hoover club ln this city has met with much encour- agement from democrats while a gooo many republicans have signified tneir desire to join a Hoover club.

ARIZoNA's DEATH RECORD
State Board of Health Reports Show
 Interesting Conditions.

During the six months edning De cember 31, 1919, there were no deaths reported to the State board of health from any counties in Arizona due to malaria, small poX or measles. The total was 2O6O as against 29S0 for the first six months or the year. The difference of 920 deaths came largely from the falling off of the influenza epidemic and of deaths from diseases that would be affected thereby. This is best shown by the following table compared with the deaths from cer- tain diseases for the first half of the
