A PROCLAMATION
Designating Saturday, Dec ember 17th as FOrget-Me-
 Not Day

The debt which we, as American citizens, owe t o those who gave their servic- es for this country in t h e Great War, is so real that we cannot be reminded of it too often, especially if the results is in some concrete re- cognition of what we owe them. Particularly is this true with reference to the thousands of disabled Ameri- can soldiers who now find themselves unable to earn a livelihood as a result of the wounds they received or they endured in that tremen- dous conflict.
 Although our government is carrying out a program of rehabilitation for the be- neft of these sufferers, there are many cases which can not be reached by govern mental machinery, and i t therefore ,behooves us t o add our assistance in any way possible to afford them relief.
 Saturday, December 17th, has been designated by the National Headquarters o f the Disabled American Vet erans of the World War as the day on which a nation wide effort will be made for the purpose of creating a re- fund to be used exclusively in assisting disabled veter- ans who are in need of help. It is proposed that this laud- able plan be carried ou t through the sale of forget me-nots in every American community. The funds thus obtained are to be divided equally between the local chapter and the treasury of the national organization. l 1t appearing that the Dis abled American War Veter- ans of the World War is an organization, the members and officers of which serve without salary and the mo-
 ives of this campaign being wholly altruistic, I would be- | speak for this effort t h e
 hearty cooperation and as-
 sistance of the people of Ari-
 zona.
 May not the Christmas spirit which is finding ex-
 pression in our hearts a t
 this time reach out to those
 men who are paying with
 pain and suffering for the
 privileges which we enjoy. | and may we n0t reSnOnd

.of Railway Photographers and an
other OF the union representatives
forced from Harrison, arrived here
tonight. They announced they would
Keep In touch with the strike from

No Effort to Fight
Describing the ejcctment yester-
day OF the brotherhood officials.
Carey declared that realizing the
seriousness that might result unless
they did an requested. they readily
agreed to comply with the demands
Of the citizens that visited them in
n Harrison hotel"
we asked for time in which to
prepare for our departure, Carey
stated. Advance knowledge of tho
probable action against us had been
received" he continued, and we al
ready sent orders to the 235 or 240
union workers OF the NJ. Il ". A. who
are In Harrison, out on strike, to
remain in their rooms regardless OF
any eventuality.
We told the men not to leave
their rooms between 1880 a. m.
Wednesday and 10 am. today, even
though our bodies should be dangled
from telegraph poles Information
that have since received was to the
effect that those orders were obeyed
to tho letter.
Kept Union Men out of IL
The union men were anxious TO
come to our aid, but we realized
that serious developments might
occur and the order for them to stay
in their rooms was the result"

going to Brauson. Mo, from where
they made train connections to their
various destinations.
Carey stated tonight that he did
not know just what their position
would be. There is so much in
volved in the matter" he said.
He also was not prepared to state,
he said, what action probably would
be forthcoming from brotherhood

ion. however. that the matter would
be taken direct to Washington and
laid before federal authorities, pos
sibly President Harding himself.
