APPEAL.
 F9R ASSISTANCE
G-rom Thursday's Dauy

Direct appeal for assistance from the National American Legion was made in tclcgrams to Commander F. w. Galbraith, IT,, by Webster N. Roberts, commander of Ernest Love post here. Inspired by the growing necessity of caring for compensation and insurance cases arising out of the presence at Whipple Barracks of many veterans who have claims, Roberts has put the matter straight .up to the national organization with n demand for attention.
 Himself a disabled veteran, Rob crts has been attempting to line up cnoush funds to enable the local legion 10 keep open an office and conduct is business thoroughly. but says he has been facing many dis .couragements. Meetings of the post have been ill attended lately and the spirit seems to be lacking.
 No abandonment of the work the legion is doing can be contemplated at this time, however. The need is too serious, it is said.
 Recommendation is made that the legion send here a man capable of being more than a mere office clerk. and if possible install stcnographer capable of handling soldier claims. Three months work year is in sight for such a force and their pres cucc would have a benign effect on the situation. The help of strong men with big hearts is needed" the telegram concludes.

30-Mile. New Drift Fence Plan ned to Segregate Stock on Mogollon Rim; Cattle Meet at Camp Verde.

The surprisingly good condition of range cattle despite many handi- caps and developments in the Verde valley situation were features dis cussed at a recent meeting of Verde cattle interests at Camp Verde, ac- cording to Chairman w. w. Midg- ley of the board of supervisors, who was in the city yesterday.
 One of the foremost developments of the cattle country lying on and under the Mogollon rim between Flagstaff and Camp Verde, is a pro jectcd new drift fence to be built from Maxwell's ranch to Middle Verde, distance of 30 miles. The fence will connect wifh the present Flagstaff drift fence and will make approximately a straight line across country. A great saving in riding of this range will be effected, according to the packers of the project.
 Range grass is coming on well enough as a result of the light quick melting snows of the past few weeks but the feed has not much strength yet. Hence cattlemen are gathering and feeding early and in great num- bers.

LOOSENLNG OF TRADE
 CONDITIONS VERIFIED
Says Prescott is Livest Town Found on Trip-Business Conditions
 Elsewhere Poor
From Mednesdav,s Dailvl

A gradual but steady resumption
 of operations by large plants in the east was reported here yesterday by William Whereich, representative of Cohen, Goldman & Co.,, a large clothing concern of. New York, who was in the city transacting business with local clothiers With the first of this year, Whereich said yester- day, some of the large clothing manufacturers started to reopen, and the movement has been continued
 A majority of the firms opening, those reported by Whereich being al most entirely clothing manufacturers or manufacturers of woolen and cot ton fabrics, are resuming operations under a slightly reduced wage scale. A drop has also been noticeable, he stated, in the prices of wholesale woolens and ready-made garments. The American Woolen company, one of the largest firms in the busi- ness, has dropped its prices from Is to 25 per cent.
 The drop in wages, according to Whereich, has been slight, for while clothing has come down some, no reduction is noticeable in the east in general commodities, so that the cost of living remains about the same Under these circumstances, it is felt that a severe cut in wages would work a hardship on labor Whereich stated it as his belief that a return to pre-war prices is prac- tically impossible at present, and he doesn't expect it for some time yet.
 Whereich, who has been travelling mainly through the mining centers of New Mexico and Arizona, re- ports that business conditions in the towns in these sections are not good, many of the mines having either shut down completely or reduced their operations by half, with frequently a dollar day cut in wages. Prescott he stated, is the first town he has found showing any sign of genuine business life and activity. Orders in his line from the smaller towns al most entirely represent an anticipa- ;ion of spring business.

TRIPLE BATTLE
 FlA HIS. AND
 FLAG TEACHERS
From Thursdays Daily)

Representatives of Prescott and Flagstaff High schools tonight will engage in a triple contest, bound to cause ro li,uc excitement in local 5tudtat circles.
 With a new lineup and a quintet just as full of pep as before, the Prescott High school goal-shooters will meet the dribbling aggregation from Flagstaff in what it appears will be a stiff contest at the High school gym. The local lads are rarin' to go, and are fully confident of making as excellent a showing in tonight's battle as they have in their recent games. Flagstaff is reported to have no mean collection of goal hounds itself, and severe opposition is expected by the Badgers.
 With an outlook like this the game should prove a fast and exciting one. It will not be the only thing on the card however, for the Flagstaff girls team is coming down at the same time to try their luck with the Badger girls, who are confident of putting up as good a game as they did when they defeated the girls teams of Winslow and Jerome.
 The big double-cvcnt at the High school gym will be preceded by lively debate between Flagstaff and Prescott, in which one of the live questions of the day will be dis cussed: Resolved, That the Closed Shop Policy Should Be Adopted in American Industry"
 With two Flagstaff boys taking the affirmative against two Prescott girls, Dorothy Hill and Dorothy Stuart, on the negative, a lively even ing should cnsuc. The debate will take place d, the Congregational church at G:45 p. m, the games'Iol- lowing at the close of the argument.
