as FORGET-ME-NOT DAY

FORGET-ME-NOT DAY
 BE IT REMEMBERED that there are many among us who, in doing their duty to the country during the Great War, now happily ended, have suf- fered injuries eliminating them participants in the ordinary battles of life, and who therefore unable to earn living, that Peace has been restored to us and though our Government is carrying out program for the rehabilitation of these unfortunate ones aid is necessary for the relief of many who not as yet be reached by the machinery the Govern ment has set in motion in their behalf.
 It has been suggested by the officers of the Dis abled American Veterans of the World War that Sat- urday, December the Seventeenth, be designated as "FORGET-ME-NOT DAY throughout the Nation, when, by the sale of forget-me-nots funds will be to us by ties of everlasting gratitude.
 NOW, therefore, l. Willis H. Plunkett, Mayor of the City of Phoenix by virtue of authority by law in me vested, and in compliance with the above men, toned suggestion do declare and proclaim Saturday next, the 17th day of December, 1921 to be

EXECUTIVE OFFICE
 A PROCLAMATION Designating Saturday, December 17th, as FORGET-ME-NOT DAY

FORGET-ME-NOT DAY
 The debt which me, American citizens, owe to those who gave their services for this country in the Great War; is so great and so real that cannot be reminded of it too often especially if the reminder results in some concrete recognition of what we owe them Particularly is this true with reference to the thousands of disabled American soldiers who now find themselves unable to earn livelihood result of the wounds they received the hardshps they endured in that tremendous conflict.
 Although our government is carrying out a pro- gram of rehabilitation for the benefit of these suffer- CTS, there many which cannot be reached by governmental machinery and 1t therefore behooves us to add assistance in any way possible to afford them relief
 Saturday, December 17th has been designated by the National Headquarters of the Disabled American Veterans of the World War as the day which na- tonwide effort will be made for the purposes of creat ing relief fund to be used exclusively in assisting dis abed veterans who in need of help. It is proposed that this laudabe plan be carried out through the sale of forgetme-nots in every American community. The funds thus obtained to be divided equally between the local chapter and the treasury of the national or ganizaton.
 It appearing that the Disabled American War Veterans of the World War is an organization, the members and officers of which without salary and the motives of this campaign being wholly atr stic would bespeak for this effort the hearty cooper ation and assistance of the people of Arizona.
 May not the Christmas spirit which is finding ex- presson in our hearts at this time reach out to these men who are now paying with pain and suffering for the privileges which we enjoy, and may we not respond most generously to this opportunity to repay in slight tn measure e; re the great debt we owe to them
 NOW, THEREFORE, I, ERNEST R, HALL, Act ing Governor of the State of Arizona, by virtue of authority vested in me by law, do hereby designate Saturday, December 17th, as sFORGET-ME-NOT DAY, and do call upon all the people of the State of Arizona to respond cheerfuly and generously to the needs of the Disabled American Veterans of the World War, and do urge that each contribute through the pur chase of these little symbols of remembrance to the aleviaton of the sufferngs and distress of those to whom we owe debt which can never be fully paid. IN WITNESS WHEREOF, I have here unto set my hand and caused the Great Seal of the State of Arizona to be affixed. Done at Phoenix, the capital, this 10th day of December 1921

Singled Out Is One Who
Shot Him
PRISONER ADMITS
MURDER OF M0LLER

Is Indicted by Grand Jury i'm New York
Dead Man Was Aged Jeweler - As
sault on MIR. Gale Was an Attempt TO
Secure Diamond Ring.
Out of lineup of IA men at the
Bronx county Jail in New York, Fred 6
Gale of Westfield, L. l., yesterday picked
one man whom he said positively was the
the man who shot him in the head in Mr..
Gales garage in Westfield Nov. -. Mr..
Gale is former Brattleboro man, a
brother of Attorney John E. Gale of
Guilford. in which town he spent his boy
hood
The man is Alric Westling, confessed
murderer Of Carl AIoller. an aged jewfler.
1t was in connection with an attempt to
get possession of a diamond ring, Mr..
Gale claims, that the shooting in Mr..
Gales garage took place. The bullet
struck Mr. Gale on the head and plowed
a furrow through his scalp as he was
bending over an oil can, the shot being
fired from the rear.
In connection with the Moller murder
Wrestling was arraigned before AIagis-
trate Simms in the Morrisania court on
short affidavit charging murder, made by
Detective Herman Mayer after the con-
fpsSion Saturday night. lnasmuch as the
grand jury Indictment had been voted,
the prisoner was discharged on the de-
tective'S charge and then rearrested on
bench warrant.
When Magistrate Simms asked West
ling if he had any statement to make he
replied:
Il have a lawyer here"
Ernest Anderson of Worcester an
nounced that he had been retained to !ook
after the prisoner interests.
"Westling must have gone crazy to do
such an act as he is charged with COM
mitting." Anderson told reporters.
Rev. A. j. Losgreo, pastor of Worees-
ter church. said over the long distance
telephone that while Westling was not
member of the congregation he had been
regular attendant at the services 10 or II
years ago. The congregation as such
was not raising a fund, but a group of
friends of Westling within the body had
signifed their intention of contributing to
the defence, Mr.. Losgreo said.
'Westling made many friends in the
Stebbins street church, during the period
he attended services here" Mr.. Losgreo
said. HE never. however, affiliated with
the membership of my church"
The Identification by Mr.. Gale came an
hour before the grand jury returned the
Indictment in the Moller case. Mr.. Gale
! said he was positive Westling was the
man who on Nov. - shot him in the head
He said that Westling, representing him
self as a Mr.. Davidson, appeared in re-
sponse TO an advertisement of a diamond
ring which Mr.. Gale inserted in a news
paper. Anderson, when told of the iden-
tification, denied the charge made by the
garage keeper He said Mr.. Gale evil
IDENTIFY saw a picture of Westling a a
newspaper and confused him with the
actual assailant.
