tinct advantage over New York in the early days of those cities. MT. Trefz asserted, and in 1884 Charleston had a port five times greater than New York. In 1851 the port of Boston was greater than the port of New York, and the city richer in natural resources than the present metropolis of the United States.
 Had Better Men
 But New York had the men who were willing to pay the price to make New York a metropolis" the speaker declared. Kansas City is the best city of 350,000 because she has better men than St. Joseph, Mo, or Omaha
 He cited Cleveland as another ex- ample of city which had forged ahead as the metropolis of Ohio in spite of the fact that Cincinnati and other cities of that state were richer in natural re- sources. Cleveland's supremacy in Ohio, the speaker said, was due to her chamber of commerce, which MT. Trefz described as second only to the most efficient chamber of commerce in the world. that of Frankfort, Germany" He also cited Los Angeles and San Francisco as cities which had pros pered through the chamber of com merce principle. Los Angeles, eSpe- cially, was built up, 22 miles from the ocean, with no particular resources to " dlId1l llS IuluIc SiOiys CASCPt eAc men who believed in their city and worked for it's future.
 Future of Phoenix Sure
 'The future of Phoenix is practically assured, though I am told that every railroad you've got has it's back to you,' MT. Trefz added, "but the big railroads of the country have got to play a different game with the smaller cities of the country or there will be different story to tell in the next ten years"
 He advocated parks and playgrounds, and urged his hearers to adopt plan for the city. Since the schools train the future citizens, the public should rectify at once the abuse which the educational institutions have suffered at it's hands. Mir. TrefZ declared, add ing that the teaching profession should be the best paid because it deals with the souls of future citizens"
 MT. Trefz said he did not consider the budget of the Phoenix chamber of commerce sufficiently large to enable the organization to carry on it's work as efficiently as the growth of the city demanded.
 If a man does not give the com munity his best thought and make some sacrifice to better it, he is i'm moral, for he won't pay his just debts, said MT .Trefz as he assailed the class which displays no interest in communi- ty work through minimizing selfish ness.

MEN DO MOREFO GROWTH OF CITY THAN RESOURCES
Tribute Paid To Active, Az gressive Chamber of Com m cree By Reason of Which M a ny Citi e S Forged Ahead

Tt is men who make a city and not natural resources alone" This was the text of an address by F. R. Trefz Of the Commercial Federation of Cali fornia delivered yesterday before a gathering of Phoenix business men at luncheon held under the auspices of Inc chamber of commerce at the Y. M. c. A. For an hour Mir Trefz held the close attention of his hearers while he pointed out the unmistal<able advan- tages of the chamber of commerce or ganization as the vehicle of civic bet torment.
 The Speakers natural gift of oratory served to drive his remarks home the more forcibly, and more than one of those who attended the luncheon de- clared audibly when the address was concluded that Phoenix would profit by the lesson to which MT. .Trefz pointed when he compared American cities which had fallen by the wayside through lack of civic organization, through lack of men willing to unself ishly devote themselves to the com munity interest, to those other cities, bare of natural resources at the start, which have prospered and achieved greatness solely through the agency of men who were willing to sacrifice in their behalf
 Cities Made by Men in Them
 Mir. Trefz said he had made study of the cities of the United States, and in the course of the last 25 years had stored up a knowledge, based on actual experience, of the courses of develop ment of American communities.
 "i have learned" he said, land
 have never heard it successfully
 contradicted, that cities are made
 by the men who live in them, though the resources of the cities
 to limited extent may play a part.
 "It is better to increase the plane
 Of the living of the people within
 the city than it is to seek a greater
 population.
 Word of mouth advertising is the finest kind of advertising, but the faults and failures of city
 must be corrected from within.
 Damn a man who will live in a city and make money and never say good word for it.
 "If the city has faults it is not
 up to you to throw bricks, but to seek, through the civic organiza- ton, way to improve the city and correct the fault which proves ob- jectionabIe."

BELASCO-"Three Showers.

Not since the days of Augustin Daily
has Washington had the pleasure of
witnessing so clean-cut, wholesome
and charming a comedy with music
as Three Showers" which was pre-
sented at the Belasco Theater last
night under the management of Mr..
and Mrs. Coburn.
Conspicuously free from the sycopa-
ton and Jazz and the slangy book and
lyrics which so often mar the modern
musical show. this quaint little south

took hold. and from then until the
finale. when vivacious Anna Wheaton.

The story of this charming comedy,

deavors of two government agents.
