 Since all Navy enlistments were closed last December, I have received many applications from young men residing in Arizona requesting per mission to enlist in the Navy. I very much regretted the necessity of be- ing compelled to refuse these requests, as I have found that Arizona has all ways furnished very desirable type of man, men who could be relied upon in a pinch. I am now authorized to enlist a limited number of specially desirable men and in order that the citizens of Arizona may be afforded this opportunity, a Recruiting Party will visit Arizona on the dates set forth below, prepared to examine men for enlistment, and if found qualified, furnish them with free transportation to Los Angeles, where they will be finally enlisted.

LEASING OF SILVER CLAIMS

Leasing prospects in the Old Rambo district, Gila County, are now looking up, it is stated, due to the present value of silver. The leasing propo- sition was never better than it is at the precent time, and is thought that due to the prospect of losing their employment in Globe in the near fu- ture, many miners will take advan- tage of the opportunities to secure valuable leases in the above and other silver districts near Globe.

VAST SUMS GOING INTO
HIGHWAY CONSTRUCTION
During Coming Year, State of
Pennsylvania Hopes to
Surpass Old Record
(By United Press)

Harrisburg, Pa, Feb. 5,-With the
record of having built in two years
666 miles Of 18-foot roadway Of dur
able nature, the Pennsylvania state
highway department is completing
plans for the 1921 construction sea-
son. During the coming year the de-
partment hopes to beat the record
set by itself in 1920, when 4l3.7 miles
of durable thoroughfare were put
down.
The 6G6 miles of road built in 1919
and 1920 by the state of Pennsyl-
vania consisted of reinforced con-
crete base, bricl, and sheet asphalt.
The maintenance division of the state
highway department Of Pennsylvania
entirely resurfaced 377 miles of ma
cadam road. Its surface treatments
covered 1900 miles of macadam.
During the four years beginning
with 1919 Pennsylvania will have ap-
proximately $15O,0OO,OO0 available
for road work. A portion of this is
federal aid. Bonds will be sold total
ing $50, 100000. The state appropria-
tions make up about $2O,O0O,0O0. Re-
ceipts from automobile license fees
during these four years will reach
$3O,OOO,OOO. Various counties Of
Pennsylvania have issued bonds and
made loans to a total of approximate
ly $34,0QO,0OO. Several counties in
addition to those mentioned plan very
heavy loans for tho coming season.
During 1921 it is expected that
Pennsylvania receipts from automo-
bile license fees will total $9,O0O,-
600. All receipts from this source
are devoted to the maintenance of
roads on the state highway system,
which comprises 1925 miles. Penn
sylvania has learned that macadam
does not stand up under modern
traffic methods. Pennsylvania, there
fore, is putting it's money into durable
highways.
Governor Sproul and State High
way Commissioner Sadler have intro
duced a new thought in road building.
They refuse to permit the use Of bond
issue money for type of road the
ife Of which is shorter than the life of
the bond. Short-lived roads, they say,
should be built from current reve-
nues. Pennsylvania $50,OOO,00O in
bonds is to be put into roads which
will still be in existence after the ma
turity of the bonds.
