PHOENIX, Arizona, Dec. ga.
P.)--Arizona is about to reclaim an
other big desert valley. Eighty five
thousand acres in the Paradise Valley
are to be brought under irrigation by
means of a reclamation project cost
ing approximately $4,000, 900.
Announcement by George D. Christy.
Phoenix counsel for the Paradise
Verde irrigation district, as the asso-
ciation of landholders is known, that
the financing of the project has been
arranged in complete detail, has been
followed by preliminary engineering
work on the reservoir and damsites.
A New York banking house has set
aside the $4,000, 600 for the project

is located. The Paradise country is
north of the salt River section and is
separated from it by the Phoenix
range of mountains.

OFFENSIVE Of BADGER

Years day, while famed as last min
ute finished and great forward pass
ing aggregation, also has plenty OF de
fensive strength and ability TO present
straight football offensive In which
line plunges and off tackle dashes pre-.
dominate.
The straight football attack centers
around Pete stlnchcomb, All Western
Conference halfback, who bucks the
line despite his weight OF only 1856
pounds, or circles the ends for long
gaings. stInchoemb was called the
'dodging line plunger" in the Western
Conference, for. while a heavier man
would pillow into the line he goes IN
sideways and twists through.
Next TO Stinchcomb, Willaman, the
205 pound fullback. probably is the
greatest aid TO his teams straight
football offensive. Willaman was hurt
In one OF the early games and missed
several of the championship contests.
Opposition coaches concede that with
Willaman in the lineup Ohio State
would not have had so many close
calls. Willaman Is a powerful line
plunger. In addition he is rangy on
The defense.
Workman Is Good Kicker
Hoge Workman. at quarter. is the
best forward passer In the middle

punts average so yards. and he is a de-
pendable goal kicker. The Ohio State
eerial attack centers around Workman.

The Lure Of The White Lights

The United States Census shows that one-fourth of the folks in the United States now live in cities of over 100000 inhabitants. There are now siXty-six cities of that character in this country. In the ten years since the 1910 census more than G. 500,000 people who before that lived in small communities have gone to cities of 100000 or more. On the oth- CT hand the large cities have not cost so largely of their population and ev- erytime the Director of the Census puts out new bunch of figures they show that the lure of the white lights constantly adds to the number of re- cruits gathered from the small towns and farming districts.

Japs Say We Are Militaristic

The world has pointed out to Ger many as horrible example of an ag- gressiveiy militaristic country. When the Central Empires were whipped it became popular pastime in the Uni ted States to speak of Japan as an- other progressively militaristic coun- try" Back in the days of Roosevelt who supposedly feared nobody, we be- gan to palliate the irritable Japs. By the time President Taft came into of flee genuine apprehension was felt over the Trace peril" and California, at least, was in fighting mood. When President Wilson went into office he selected as one of the first missions for Secretary Bryan, the tanning of the Californians. Whereas President Roosevelt had brought the legislature to Washington, MT. Bryan, as Secre- tary of State, went as President Will sons emissary to the mountain. He was the guest of Governor Hiram Johnson, but he didn't bring back any bacon to Washington. The Governor and the legislature refused to recede from their position in curbing the en- croachments of the Japs-the same Japs whom we were coaxing to re- main good, and whom we openly fear ed might seize the Philippines and the Hawaiian Islands.
 All this changed with the war, and If the writer has any understanding of the temper and conviction of the American people they are no longer tlmid, or appreciably concerned about other nations of the earth. While we still claim to be very peaceful peo- pie, still it is apparent that no one ever talks any more about what some foreign nation might do to us in the event of war. We merely assume that they are all afraid of us, and let it go at that.
 Evidently this change of our atti- tude toward the world has brought the Japanese to a better understand ing of their position, and they are smarting under their failure to run any more bluffs upon America. In this connection many of the public speakers of Tokio, and some of the leading newspapers of the country, have begun accusing the United States of being a militaristic and warlike nation. Are we?

THE NATIONAL CAPITAL
(By J. E. Jones)
An Effective Move

After more than dozen years fight the United States Government has just put into operation a law recently passed retiring its aged employees on part pay During August the first de- duction of two and one-half per cent of each pay check for the retirement fund was made.
 At the same time, no substantial changes in the salaries of Government clerks have yet been made, and in some cases the rate of pay obtains to- day that was in effect as far back as the period when the old sailing fri gate America first cleaned up the British fleet and brought the pewter cup to these shores to tempt future Liptons to build their successive Shamrocks.
 It is quite true that the higher sala- ried officials of the Government have received very great increases in their salaries. For instance, we used to hire a President for $50,000 a year, but Lincoln worked for much less and George Washington was not paid any thing for fathering the American re- public. Now every Ohio editor ex- poets $100,000 year to do the job. There are more perquisites to garnish the position than the whole undertak- ing cost in the days of our fathers.
 But with ordinary Government clerkships in Washington it is differ ent. These places are looked upon in the Capital as great jobs for girls and widows" When viewed as a "ca- reer" for men they hold very little in the perspective. What the Govern ment has recently done for it's super annuated employees and in supplying retirement fund for the future is very similar to the plans put into ef- feet by the International Harvester Company and some of the other cor porations several years ago. The fact that the Government has become a party to the scheme for retiring it's employees after long and faithful ser vice is regarded as showing the ten dency of the age toward the recogni- tion of individual efforts in every walk of life, no matter how insignificant part the individual may have per formed in humanity's workshop.

ing people of the country whom to vote for. Statements were given out ad vising laboring men to vote against the Republicans in some districts and the Democrats in other districts. In the primaries the Gompers' edicts did not seem to cut much figure, and indi- cations are that the Brooklyn Eagle, an independent paper, is right in it's statement that "the labor vote is not deliverable, and never was" A Buff falo newspaper that is also considered independent in politics, expresses the belief that the laboring voters feel their responsibility as citizens and re- sent dictation." No one has any quar- rel with MT. Gompers, who is doing his job most excellently; but it is gen. erally understood that his is a single track mind, and that he stands for one class of people in this country against all other classes. The laboring class can very well afford to have MT. Gompers as their champion and ad- vocate just as litigant in court would prefer to have his lawyer plead his case against everything else in the world. But MT. Gompers will likely again receive demonstration that his official position is never going to enable his to cast the ballots of any large number of voters according to the manner in which his whims dic- tate.

Buckling Down To Work

The rate to which production slack ems under wages that are not satisfac- tory to labor has been very strikingly illustrated. in the railroad situation. Previous to the recent outlaw" strikes the figures concerning the amount of freight loaded at certain terminals and the added accumulation of freight in the yards, furnished certain proofs that the employees were, at least, dis interested" in their work. They were demanding more pay. But human psychology demonstrated itself in the situation, and since the Government Labor Board has awarded S625, ,000,- 900 additional wages year to the two million railroad employees, the employ es. are apparently again buckling down to work and trying to give a dollar of service for a dollar of wages.
 Everybody knows that after the war there was a great let-down in the eff ciency, and a good many wage earners were letting George do it." Reports of the Car Service Commission of the railroads show that with bigger pay checks in sight-an average of about $500 year for all railroad workers the employees are buckling down to help the arrangements move the freight.

How About Home Customers?

During the frothy period of pros perity of the past two or three years every one has at some time or anoth- CT been made to feel the bitter scorn of manufacturers, and some merchants who had so much business that they did not hesitate to let you know that they had no time to quibble with you in order to secure your patronage. But now that we have lost $500, ,OOO,- 900 of European trade, and nearly $400, 100000 of South American trade during the past year, it seems entirely probable that customers at local busi- ness establishments will soon be get ting the same old hand shake and well coming smile that evidenced the ap- preciation of their trade in the days before profiteering and the business boom so thoroughly revolutionized production and merchandising meth ods in the Nation.
