A PROCLAMATION
Designating June I4, 1921, as Flag Day

The American flag stands for freedom and truth. It repre- sents a government which guar antees equal rights to all. It means justice. It means liberty. It means happiness. Our flag signifies liberty through law, and laws for liberty No man can stand beneath it's folds with out becoming and remaining free"
 In the Stars and Stripes" we have the flag of the first Repub- lie in the world to make the peo- pie supreme under the law; it is the flag of the union of sover eign states indissolubly united in sovereign nation. The flag of justice and not of conquest and oppression, so long as we are faithful to the principles which it represents it will pre- serve to us individual rights and liberty under law, but he who is disloyal to it is a traitor to his country and to humanity.
 Now, Therefore, I, Thomas E. Campbell, Governor of the State of Arizona, do hereby designate Tuesday, the fourteenth day of June of the present year, being the one hundred and forty fourth anniversary of the adoption by congress of the flag of the Unit ed States as
 FLAG DAY
 and request that all who are engaged in training the youth of this state for intelligent citizen ship and in promoting activities which make for a broader and saner patriotism, either in the schools or through any society or organization, plan suita ble exercises for mpressing upon the minds of those who come under their influence the benefits and privileges which they enjoy under the American flag, and the obligation which rests upon them to perpetuate the ideals and institut tions of which it is the symbol. I ask also that the people of the State of Arizona join upon that day in the gen eral display of the flag and thus show their honor and respect for the Stars and Stripes and their loyalty to the principles for which it stands.
 Ia witness whereof, I have hereunto set my hand and caus- ed the great seal of the state to be affixed Done at Phoenix, the capital, this 2nd day of June, 1921.

MUST DO ASSESSMENT WORK

That holder of mining claims will do well to have their assess ment work for 1920 done before July 1, 1921, and that there is no proba bility that the 1920 as- sessment work will be suspend ed is indicated in bulletin re- ceived here by the Arizona chapter of the American Mining Congress from the Washington bureau.
 Assessment work for 1917, 1918 and 1919, was suspended in other words, mining claims were exempt from assessment work for those years-but the act approved December 31, 1920, did not relieve the owners of claims from the necessity of per forming the assessment work for 1920; it merely extended the time for doing the assessment work of 1920 to July 1, 1921. It was distinctly understood at the time this act was passed that no further exemption from assess ment work would be granted, and that all mining claims upon which such work has not been performed will be subject to To- cation by any qualified locator who posts notices on the ground after midnight of July l, 1921.

ADJUSTMENTS
OF
LONDON AND
STEVENSON

Memories of Jack London and Rob-
ert Louis Stevenson at their best Will
be recalled at the Colonial theatre to-
day when Under Crimson Skies"
the new Universal-Jew"ll production
will be presented. 1t was said to have
cost 100000 to make this picture,
which is one of the most highly dra-
matte and interest holding of the sea-
son at the theatre.
Elmo Lincoln, the Colossus of the
screen, has the leading role in the
play and he is given excellent sup
port. Rex Ingram was in charge of
the filming of the piece.
J. G. Hawkes., author of Under
Crimson Skies has contrived an
original story full of the adventure
of strong men, full of scenes that stir
the blood and replete with incidents
calculated to keep ones interest CEN
tered closely on the screen. 1t is a
story of life and adventure on the
high seas, of a gun runner who is
carrying contraband munitions to 4
South American port for revolutiona-
~ purposes, of the love of a strong
man for a woman to whom he can
not in honor, tell of his feelings.
Many new and interesting scenes
are crowded into the six reels of film
which comprise Under Crimson
Skies" A storm at sea, said to be
the most realistic ever filmed; a mu-
tiny of a crew on the high seas and
their subsection by the two-fisted
captain, q terrific struggle between
two physical giants on the surf of
the Pacific, a revolution in a South
American republic and the rescue of
a handful of besieged Americans
from the American consulate by a
band of ragged beach combers are a
few of the high lights in a production
which fairly tingles with Interesting
action.
Some real fun will be provided to-
day in pals and Petticoats," the Sun
shine comedy that holds prominent
place on the program while the Inter-
national News will be interesting as
it always is.-Adv.

Opinion Makes State Aid
Available Before Referendum

Deputy Attorney General Fred F.
Lawrence of Skowhegan, in an opin-
ion rendered Monday, declares that
the State Highway Commission may
; apportion State aid before the result
of the referendum is known, and
should so apportion it, and that there
is available for the purpose of ap-
portioning State aid at the present
tire the sum of $650,00O, provided no
portion of this amount will be need
ed for 1922 work prior to July first of
that year.
You state that the Highway
Commission are of the opinion that
they have available only s150,00O to
rHeet all allotments to be made this
YEAR" says Deputy Attorney Gen.
cral Lawrence in his opinion, in re-
ply to a communication from Paul
d. Sargent, chief engineer of the
State Highway Commission.
ut must. we think, be apparent
that the Legislative intention was
much broader than that. and while
. that intention has not been ex-
pressed with ali the clearness desir-
able, the situation in substance, as
we view it, is as follows:
"The pending Constitutional
amendment upon which the vote is
to he taken next September and the
laws which have been enacted to
take effect in case of the adoption of
that amendment, need not enter into
your consideration in making allot-
ments for State aid purposes this
year.
ut seems apparent to us that be
tween this date and July I, 1922, you
( have available for State aid pur-
poses the following, viz. Special
emergency appropriation for first
fiscal period, $150,000; regular an
nual appropriation, 100000; from
mill tax highway fund. 100000;
total s65oO00.
