ARIZONA PLAYS IMPORTANT
 ROLL IN THE UNITED STATES

An article on Arizona prepared for the supplement of the eleventh edi- tion Of the Encyclopedia Britannica by Professor IT. A Huooard. head ol the department of history of the University oi Arizona. shows the i'm portant role that the youngest state of the Union has played in connection with the political and economic issues of 'he last ten ye.~s. Tho question of her admission introduces q con,ro- versy into the legislative halls az Washington that eliminated in the famous message of President Taft or the recall of judges. The ii;en labor law called forth decision of the Uni erous industrial disputes were mat ters of national interest and concern; and the deportation incident was the occasion of an investigation and re- port by commission appointed by President Wilson. This indicates thay d new state cannot be provincial. for within it's boundaries appears issues of more than local importance. Here are gathered men from other states and from other nations: and thus many lines of thought are brought to focus in the new commonwealth.

DISARMAMENT PARLEY
PROMISED BY HARDING
Italy and France to be Invited
to Triple Alliance" Con-
ference.

Washington, July 11.-~President
Harding has already begun negotia-
tions for conference looking toward
a reduction of armaments, while the
Borah amendment is still lied up with
the Navy Appropriations Bill. Having
made his announcement. the Navy Bill
will probably be allowed TO so through
at once.
The Presidents programme is at
variance with the Borah plan. when
limited the conference to the United
states, Great Britain and Japan, ana
the subject to cutting down the re-
spective naval appropriations for a
five-year period. The conference on
which the President has approached
the powers takes i'm France and Italy
as we'll as the three great naNh
powers, and therefore. according to
the veiw of some who advocate the
Borah plan. nullifies the chance OF
a successful disarmament agreement
Senator Borah last night declined to
comment on the State Department
announcement of the President 5
move. 4 reference to the Senator's
Comments when this sort OF extension
of his idea was under consideration
suggests that he is zoo indignant to
pomment right now.
Mir. Borah has claimed all along
that to bring in France and the qucs-
ton of land disarmament would de-
feat the whole business hY complicat-
ing it with Frances fear of a restored
and vengeful Germany. Frances att
titude is anticipated To bc that unless
the United States and England are
prepared to guarantee that IN the
event of another attack they would
come to her rescue again, she cannot
afford to diminish her army, which
now amounts to 100000 men,
BY announcing the negotiations tor
a conference, the President avoids the
embarrassment Of disregardns the
request of Conference. embraced IN
the BoTah amendment. II has always
been emphasized at the White House
that the "feelers" for the disarma-
ment conference were sent out in adj
vance of any Congressional action.
though as matter Of fact the Borah
amendment was introduced Dec. II,
1920.
The Inclusion Of the Far Eastern
question in the conference plans still
further complexities and delays the
consummation of disarmament. II
means that the conference must
thrash out the Shantung controversy
the occapa ton of Saghalien Islands hy
Japan. this country's insistence on
cable rights in the Island Of Zap, and
therefore the whole question OF mani
datories in the East and finally tho
Anglo-Japanesc Alliance the renewal
of which is now under discussion in
London.
