HOUSEHOLD GOODS
AND CLOTHING NEED
Of RED CROSS SHOP

The Red Cross Salvage shop in
East jefferson street is again in need
of clothing and household goods OF
every description: in fact, anything
for which human beings can find
use.
Consequently. all business men and
women as well as the housewives are
asked to cooperate with the shop in
an effort to increase their stock of
goods, while are in such demand
among the poor of the city.
Many of the salvage bags are still
out in the homes, and the commit
tee in charge especially urges that
these bags be filled and returned
to the shop. If those who have the
bags cannot bring them down them
selves, a telephone call to any of the
following women viii result in car
being sent for the bags: Mrs. w. G..
Foster, chairman; Mrs Thomas Arm
strong Jr.. Mrs. w. +. Sears, Miss
May Upley. Mrs. James McClintock,
Mrs. Frank Carrow. and Mrs. Hugh
Campbell
If there are any in the city who
have clothing or any useful house
hold articles which they do not need
the Salvage shop will be glad to
send out for them as soon as telc-
There are so many young children
in need or wearing apparel, shoes,
stockings. under garments and even
hair ribbons for little girls. that an
especial stress has been laid on this
sort of material. Many families have
children who have outgrown their
little clothes and these could be
passed on to the shop. so that some
less fortunate child might get them.
Nothing is too small or too large
for the shop to handle and there
is nothing used in a home which
is not inquired for some time dur
ing the week by people who cannot
afford to pay the price for a new
article and come to the Red Cross
to supply their needs. If the residents
of the city will bear this in mind
and just remember to telephone when
they have something they do not
need, the committee will do the rest.

Benefits Of Using Arizona

General observance of "Trade at

The congress recently inaugurated
the Trade at Home movement and
urged that it be conducted in every
locality by local civic and commercial
organizations, with the result that
the week will be held in practically
every city and town in the state.
The statement follows:
The last two years have shown as

ity in the state and insure the fullest
future development of our resources.
We cannot alter economic laws,

upon you, the individual. Thus we
help ourselves when we make busi-
ness better, regardless of whether we
are in business personally.
The greatest assistance we can give
to business at this time is to keep
our money at home. where it be-
longs-where it will play its part in
making conditions better and even
tually return to us in some form. BY
home we mean your home town as
well as your home state.
Hope to Reach All
A large majority of residents of
every city and town of Arizona trade
at home. But many do not. It is
the latter whom we hope TO reach in
this Trade at HOme-Buy Arizona
Products" week. We can prove TO
them that it is to their individual
advantage to trade at home.
In some cases people can save
money by buying goods from a mail
order house. If that were not true
mail order houses could not exist.
But when you buy from a mail order
house you lose the opportunity of
making your own selection of goods,
of seeing the quality and deciding
whether it will be satisfactory. And
in many cases the monetary saving
is so small as to be unworthy of
consideration. Reckoning the factors
of quality and personal selection,
home values are always better than
the sight unseen values you order
from a catalog.
There is a second class of people
who send their money away from
home-the people who visit Callfor-
MIA or the east every year or two and
Of
until they are out of the state. 1t is
true that this method offers them a
wide variety in many instances, but
it does not save them money-in fact
generally leads them to spend more.
And on the average they can obtain
lust as much satisfaction by buying
at home, or at least in the state.
Home Goods Cost No More
Similarly, Arizona agricultural and
manufactured products cost no more
and will be found of as good quality
as those which are shipped in. You
gain nothing by buying the imported
variety.
Home merchants and home bust
ness men and home manufacturers
and home farmers are the people
who contribute directly to the pros
perity and development of the state
employment more invested capital
And more invested capital means
more taxable property and lower in
dividual taxes Better business
means more money for everybody.
You gain nothing by trading away
from home. You help yourself by
trading at home. There is no choice
once you consider it.
For these reasons the Arizona In
dustrial Congress urges that every
citizen of the state observe Trade al
Home-Buy Arizona Products" weet
by trading at home and using Arizona
products exclusively during the week
of May % to 27. Doing it for one
week means doing it permanently. i
is lasting service which We can dc
for our home towns and our home
state-and incidentally ourselves.

about all this by private inquiry, but
so far has been unsuccessful and he
has invoked the aid of the court.
But the receiver has this suspicion:
that the notes We're turned over to
the state treasurer by the Central
Finance corporation and that the lat
ter as to the notes claims to have
held them as security for indemnity
bonds made by the Central Finance
corporation signed as a surety there
on and which bonds were intended to
to be used as security for deposits
by the state treasurer in the Central
Bank of Phoenix. But it is stated
that these indemnity bonds were
never accepted by the proper officers
of the state and as to which the
Central Finance corporation at nc
time became liable. 1t could, there
fore. never have had a right to the
control or possession of these notes
as collateral of the bank.

to become involved in any domestic
affairs
Some of the persons who have writ
ten to the department to know how to
receive help in locating missing men
have shown that they did not quite
understand Mr. Hays offer Some
had confused idea that the post
office system was to write to every
postmaster in the country to locate
the missing. Wholesale letter writing
of this sort by postmasters, or by in
dividuals either, would obviously be
out of the question. There are more
than fifty thousand post offoces in the
country. One postmaster wrote that
il he was supposed to send letters to
all his fellow postmasters he would
have to have corps of stenographers
Mr.. Hays answer was to use his own
judgment
The post office department does not
know how many inquiries are being
brought to post offices, and how many
persons are being traced At first
large numbers of letters came in to
the department but gradually people
are beginning to understand that they
are to go to their local post Offices
No record of the number of visitors
to the postmasters has been collected.
Judging by the hundreds of letters
that have come into the departm
there is great interest in the new
! service
The Richmond palladium and sun-telegram. [volume] (Richmond, Ind.) 1907-1939, 1922-01-04

helping to locate persons who are be-
ing sought for the purpose of collect
ing debts, nor does it wish to pursue
persons who not desire to be found.
Credit agencies are already asking
the department to help them find dis
appearing customers. Defrauded men
are trying through the post offices to
locate confidence men who cheated
them and departed over night. Some
of them feel that they are no less
heartbroken than a father who has
not seen his daughter for five years,
and they are just as anxious as he is
to locate their missing friends"
This is work for the police. 1t is
not the business of the post office de-
partment, and it is not the service of
good will which the postmaster gen
eral wants his postmasters to perform.
Mr.. Hays points out that hunting
for missing men is not part of the
departments work by any order, and
that the department has not obligated
itself to find the thousands of lost per-
sons in the country. What Mr.. Hays
did do was to suggest that he would
like the postmasters to do what they
can to help sincere persons who have
been unable to locate relatives.
The postmaster generals printed
suggestion, sent out to the post offices,
leaves details as to how this assist
ance is to be given to the judgment
of the postmaster. After he talks
with an inquirer the postmaster may
decide that there is no clue to follow,
or he may feel that the quest, if sue
cessful, would not end in a happy
family reunion.
How Postmasters Work
If he does feel that the visitor is
sincere, he proceeds by inspiration.
He may get in touch with postmasters
where the missing man has been.
Some postmasters have inserted no
tees in local newspapers. They have
notified police departments. They have
given their letter carriers instructions
to keep a lookout for a man or woman
answering the description given.
Some of the missing men have been
located in these ways.
When a person thus sought is ident-
flied, he is told that he is being in
quired after. If he wishes to get in
touch with the mother, or whoever
it is seeking him, he does so. If he
does not wish to be reunited to his
family, the post office department
does nothing further. 1t has no wish
