Owing to a continued shut down of the Phelps Dodge properties in this district the management is mak- ing a request of the State Board of Equalization for re0uc.:on fin the assessed valuation of rne property for the year 1922.
 It is believed that the reduction asked for will have C bearing upon the decision to begin the big deve. lopment and construction plans Phelps Dodge have on their program before resuming production.

ARIZONA WILL AID MEN AND WOMEN
 IN LATE WAR

The first step toward substantial recognition of the men and women who represented this State in the late world conflict, has been taken by the Arizona Land Settlement Commission, which is now in the market for 32O-acre tract of land.
 The intention is to divide the land into small farms, each not exceeding in value unimproved, the. sum of $7.500; or so-called workers allot- ments', having a value, unimproved, not in excess of $1,000. The set tiers, comprising soldiers, sailors, marines and others who served with the armed forces of the United States during the World War and. were re- sidents of the State of Arizona at the time of their enlistment, will be aided by the commission in their de- sire to establish homes through the advance loans for the purchase or stock, implements and other neces- sary equipment Each successful applicant, however, must demons trate to the commission the posses sion of capital equivalent to five per cent of the value of the land, plus five per cent of the improvements, if any The first payment will be two percent, due when possession is given; two percent for the succeed
 
 amortizing payments to be fixed by the commission in such amounts as to repay within a further period not exceeding thirty years.
 Ofers from all sections of the State are desired by the Land Set clement Commission, so that the range of selection will be the great est possible and permit the purchase of a tract adapted for the purpose desired. Under the terms of the Land Settlement Act, land only of a certain character can be considered by the Commission. It must be level, tillable, with good title and adequate water rights, under an established water system It must be in com pact body, but can be divided by roads. Additional particulars can be secured from the advertisement of the Land Settlement Commission. (which appears in this issue. The tenders must be submitted to the Commission on or before September 11th at it's office, State Land Depart ment, Phoenix.

 Upon the closing down of the Co ronado mine next month the force at present employed there will he transferred to Morenci and will be employed there in addition to the 150 men to be put to work now.
 It was learned this week that the detailed plans for the rebuilding of the No. mill will not be completed until the end of September. It is stated ,by an official of the company that so far as can be seen now there is not a sufficient demand for copper to warrant the rebuilding of the No. 6 mill, or the starting up of operations on large scale, and that the mill will not be remodeled until there is a better demand for copper. It is hoped that this may soon de- velop.
 It is expected that the concentra- tes made at the mill will be shipped to the Phelps Dodge shelter at Doug las for treatment, at least for the present.

Hairdressing has always played an
important part in the history Of fash.
ion Today the coiffure and its appen-
dages are receiving even more atten-
ton than usual Aside from the fact
that a woman's appearance is either
made or marred by the manner in
which she dresses her hair, there WAS
bound to be keen reaction from the
rar-reaching bobbed-hair vogue. In
deed, it would hardly seem appropri

types of dresses and their heightened
and draped lines with anything but
real dignity in hairdressing.
In Paris at the present time the
fashion Is to draw the hair back tight
iy to reveal the ears For some time
past even the woman who was the
fortunate possessor of beautifully
shaped ears was compelled to dress
her hair so as to completely conceal
them.
