 The booth at the post office was under the direction yesterday of Mrs. Fred Blair Townsend during the morning, and during the afternoon Mrs E. K Foltz. Mrs C. W. Bots ford and Mrs C. H. Tucker Mrs Harold B. Coke secretary of the guild, is in general charge of the work

FURTHER HONOR
 II JOHN PRUITT' WORLD WAR HERD
Flag Which Draped Casket When Marine w a S Buried at Arlington Re ceived By His Mother In Phoenix

Further honors have been accorded a son of Maricopa county, the late Corp. John Tenry Pruitt whose body has found a final resting place in the National cemetery at Arlington, Va The American ensign which draped the casket on it's last journey from HobolSen, N. J.. to the National ceme- tery at Arlington. has been received by the mother, Mrs Belle Fruit. It was forwarded from Washington by It. Col. H. Lay assistant adiutant and inspector of the United States marine corps. of which the Maricopa county boy was member.
 Corporal Pruitt was one of two To- cal boyS to receive the highest of all military decorations accorded by the American government-the Congress sional Medal of Honor It is an award by congress in recognition of extra ordinary heroisra above and beyond the line of duty on the battlefield He also was decorated with the Croix de Guerre by the French government.
 Corporal Pruitt was a member of the Sixth Marine regiment, that world famous fighting organization that wrote history at Chateau Thier- ". At Ba leau Woods and again at Blanc Mont Ridge, then further along
 
 fighting. It was on Oct 3, 1918, that Corporal Fruit proved his colors. A German machine gun nest had been menacing- the regiment for hours. Pruitt volunteered to make or break that nest. An hour after his depar- ture from the trenches. firing from the nest ceased. He had conquered the entire nest single handed.
 A few minutes later he came la boring toward the American lines, dragging the gun behind him. Later the same day another machine gun nest was menacing the American forces and again Pruitt started or the perilous mission. This time he returned with 40 German prisoners on the next day he was assigned tc sniping duty and as dusk fell over the American lines his life was snuffed out by the bullet from the gun of a German sniper.
 The body was buried in one of the French cemeteries, only to be ex- humed a few weeks ago and brought to America on the U. s. army trans port Wheaton. The body arrived al Hoboken, Oct. 4.
 Funeral services were conducted al 2:30 o'clock Thursday afternoon. Oct 13. and the remains were inferred 1T grave No. 2453, Overseas section. 4 U. S. navy chaplain, the Rev. J. B Frazier. and U. $. army chaplains the Rev. J l.. Yates and Father J. J Campbell, conducted the services Full military honors were rendered by detachment of soldiers and z band. A floral wreath presented b, officers and enlisted men of the ma rine corps who placed on the grave ffr- Han4-u ASt7 and gressman and Mrs. Carl HaydeI were present at the services.
 The ensign taken from the caslxe in an all wool American flag fiv' feet wide by TO feet long. It was re ceived by the mother yesterday. : card, taken from the floral piece tha decorated the grave also was re ceived It said: Corporal Joh Henry Pruitt, from the officers an enlisted men of the United State Marine corps."

The state.will pay $S.93 hundred pounds for beef furnished to the prisoners at the state penitentiary at Florence for the month of Novern- ber according to the price offered by the Arizona Packing company.

Briand Says Peace
 of World Demands Success of Farley
Republican A. p. Leased Wire1


 PARIS, oct. 20-The Washington conference must be made a success; the peace and tranquility of the world requires it, said Premier Briand in an address today at a luncheon of the Anglo American Press association.
 Declaring France always had been a lover of peace and had sought ar bitration whenever arbitration was possible in disputes, he said that peace now should be organized by re- ducing the military burden lying on countries, which, like France, had sacrificed blood, money and every thing during the war.
 But Frances security. he continued, prevented her from sharing in a peace of mysticism
 While I have the honor to be the head of the French government" he said. T shall use every effort to con solidate peace to extend the 1 peace so as to facilitate the task of our enemy of yesterday in modern izing his country in adapting it to the definite ideas of peace and to the loyal and elementary conception oi the probity between peoples which consist of respecting signed engage ments an dexecuting them"

SPECIAL MEETING IF
 LAND BOARD CALLED

A special meeting of the state land board will be held at the governors office at o'clock thIs afternoon. The meeting was to have been held yes terday but was postponed owing to the absence from the city of W. J. Galbraith, attorney general, a mem Der of the board.
 While the nature of the business to be transacted Ut, the special ses- sion was not given out. it is believed that the recent discovery of a S75.- GOO loan on bare desert lands made to the Central Finance company by Mitt Sims as acting governor. and Harry Ross, state treasurer, in June, 1920, as members of the loan board, is to be discussed from every angle. Rudolph Kuchler state land com missioner, has recommended that the state take steps to protect it against loss of the loan of funds taken from the permanent school fund of the state.
 The discovery of the loan on 4,6S0 acres in Maricopa, Pinal county, was made by Mir Kuchler when the Gen. tral Finance company asked the state for an additional loan, addressing the letter to the governor as chairman oi the board Not being advised of 2 former loan maue when he was ab- sent from the city. the governor re auested an investigation by Mir Kuchler. with the result that the s75,- coo deal was brought to light.
