fights for the ex-service men.
 Arizona has arrived at the stage in her development where she must have some one to fight for her, at Wash ington, so that our industries may be protected and our wonderful water power and irrigation projects may be developed. We have got to have energetic, fighting blood to get things for our state, and Captain Robison will fight for the development of all the wonderful possibilities for our Ari- Zona.
 Remember this: Arizona must have republican representation in Washington if she is to get the very best of everything under republican administration. And Arizona has ar- rived at the place in her development where she must have tremendous help from the federal government in order 10 complete her development and to make her what she ultimately will be: One of the richest empires in the UniOn."

cated out of their present chronic de- moralization; Stable government should be established and maintained by the United States until Mexico is cured of her disease of ignorance and demoralization; Mexico should also have the English language, so that she could have better understanding of the attitude of the Americans, by read ing our newspapers and other litera- ture.
 This will be the ultimate solution of the Mexican problem.
 Captain Robison was one of the or ganizers of the American Legion Post at Flagstaff, Mark A. Moore Post No 3, and was it's first commander.
 Captain Robison is the officer who fought for his mems rights during his three years as captain in the United States service, and there are men in every town in Arizona who will testi- fy to this fact, and now are fighting for him, so that he may be put into a position where he may fight further

SPINDLE OF MOTHERS
 OF AMERICAN SOLDIER
 DEAD IS UNEARTHED

A particularly despicable swindIe
 has come to.the attention of the local
 army recruiting station through bull
 letins issued by the war department with reference to the return of the 1 soldier dead from overseas.
 An American soldier was killed in
 action in France whose burial place
 was not reported by the burial officer i to the graves registration service and >whose grave location has never been discovered. This may have occurred | from several causes, such as destruc- tion of the body by high explosives, | failure of the soldier to wear his iden- tifcation tag or other means of identi- fication. The mother of the soldier, ! who, of course, has been endeavoring
 to secure some information as to her sons probable burial place, was re- gently approached by man who
 claimed to have had military service
 in France and alleged to be a member of the Veterans of Foreign Wars, and to be in a position to assist her in To- eating the burial place of her son.
 Upon this information the sorrowing mother furnished him with money for the purpose of visiting Washington and investigating the records. Shortly afterward he returned and advised the mother that the grave had been located and registered through his ef- forts and that everything was now all right so that her sons body would later be returned to her. A brother of the deceased soldier, who lives at a distance from his mother, upon being advised of the facts, made personal visit to Washington and himself look ed up the records and found that no in quiry whatever had been made by the swindler, who had approached the mother, and while every effort was being made by the military authori- ties to secure information as to the grave location of the deceased soldier, nothing as yet had been discovered. The fact that the bereaved mother is a widow only accentuates the atro- ciousness of the crime.
 Relatives seeking information con- corning the graves of their dead in Europe should address all inquiries to the quartemaster general, US. army, Washington, D. C., and should not un- der any circumstances pay out any | money to people offering to assist in locating graves of American military | dead.

LEGION TO FIGHT
 DRAFT SLACKERS

Declaring there are many draft dodgers" in the Salt River valley, and more across the border waiting foi things to blow over before they return to the United States, the Frank Luke Jr., Post, of the American Legion, has called meeting for next Wednesday night, which will be held at the Legion headquarters, 364 North Seventh av- enue.
 The purpose of the meeting, as an nounced by J. K. Benton, secretary of the post, is to organize the local Le- gionnaires in campaign to provide punishment for the draft dodger who up to the present has escaped the con sequences of his evasion of the draft laws.
 Arousing public sentiment to point where stringent punishment will be de- manded and all draft dodgers brought to justice, is one of the objects of this campaign, according to MT. Benton.
 "I'he tendency where draft evaders have been caught" he said, "has been to let them off with light sentence because public sentiment has not been behind their prosecution. We intend to start propaganda that will result in every draft dodger being sent up for a long term if he is convicted of the offense. Draft dodgers are classed as deserters from the army and should be tried by court-martial.
 "There are many of them in the Salt River valley, both Americans and Mexicans and we intend to see that justice is meted out to them. Some of them have gone over the border and are now coming back, but are being caught and brought into Fl Paso, Tex, by border farmers, who get $50 for every one they capture"
 A few have been picked up here, he said, but most of them have been from the outside and there are many of them in the valley who have not been brought to justice for evading the selective drafts during the late war days. '.
 At the meeting Wednesday probably two. or three addresses will be made urging the Legion men to get out and work for the purpose of bringing the stacker to justice, said MT. Benton, be- cause the general attitude in this mat ter is one of indifference throughout the whole country and especially in the west. The American Legion and oth- CT soldier organizations are now work ing on this, he stated.
 Reporting these cases to the local department of justice and cooperating with the department in disposing of them will be one of the functions of the coming campaign, MT. Benton also stated. Many cases have already been reported to Washington, he said, but delay is necessary before all the evi- dence necessary to convict a draft dodger can be obtained.
 them to attend the meeting:
 The following appeal to members of the local Legion is being made asking
 What was accomplished at the state of the American Legion? Come to this meeting and find out.
 What is it that we have had in our midst for some time? The yellow streak, the draft dodger, the animal that grabbed off the opportunity that some of us should have had. What are we going to do about it? It's up' to us, so let's get together and work this out in such l way that we can assure said dodger an indefinite vaca- tion."
