STATE HELPED
BY TRADE AT
HOME MOVEMENT

The two slogans, Trade at Home"
and Use Arizona Products date
from early in 1922, when the Arizona
industrial congress was formed as
central agency for all interests
and all organizations to bring about
cooperation of all industries in
building bigger, better and more
prosperous Arizona.
Arizona was then just emerging
from the post war depression. ALI
lines of business were at low
level Before a program for future
development could be started, stability
and some degree of prosperity must
be restored to present industries So
the "Use Arizona Products" cam
paign was launched.
From the very first the move
ment was success. With the aid
OF the states newspapers, which
have been responsible for much of
the good results. definite headway
was made in creating markets. for
producers and manufacturers. The
mines and corporations began giving
preference to Arizona products and
home firms. Conditions began to
improve.
Then it was seen that the same
idea could be applied to each in
dividual community, and to retail
business, and the first Trade at
Home" week was held in May, 1922,
under the auspices of chambers of
commerce of the different sections.
The Idea took hold People began
to realize that, the, whole year round
they could do better by trading at
home, and at the same time build
up their community and increase their
own opportunities for prosperity
They found Trade at Home and
use Arizona Products meant benefit
to the individual, regardless of
vocation
Since then, the Trade at Home
and s'Use Arizona Products" cam
paigns have been continued as one
movement, devoted to keeping Arizona
money first in it's own town, and
then in the state. The effort has
become permanent one, with an
annual "Trade at Home-Use Arizona
Products week to remind the public
of the advantages these policies hold
for everyone
The "Trade at Home-Use Arizona
Products" principle is not advocated
as mere boost stunt, but as a
matter of fact practice which pays
dollars and cents dividends to every
resident. When Arizona people deal
with their home merchants, home
banks, home business and professional
men, home workmen, they increase
the volume of business, develop local
trade, put new money into circulation
to come back to them in time, create
employment, encourage expansion, and
generally to.-build UP the community,
with bigger opportunities for them
selves to make more money
Similarly using the products grown
and made in Arizona builds up our
industries, gives our producers more
money to spend with us, adds workers
to our payrolls, creates new wealth
to help bear the tax burden and
eventually lower tax rates, and even
makes possible lower prices through
increased volume.
In other words, money spent at
home builds up the community and
state, and comes back to the spender
sometimes; money spent outside
builds up some other community or
state, and is gone forever. 1t all
comes down to this
1--WE all share prosperity. We can
all make prosperity, by religiously
doing business with the home folks,
and insisting on getting Arizona
products when we buy"
1t pays to trade at home!

RAPID 3O-YE:AR
GROWTH FOR
CITY vIsIONED
Phone Company Forecast
for 1855 Is Population
Of 626,150 Here.
ALL INDIANA TO SHARE
Bell Corporation Prepares to
Meet Greater Demand
in Future.
ALL INDIANA TO SHARE

indianapolis, a city of 626.l5O
population in the year 1855.
Such is the forecast of the Indi-
ana Bell Telephone Company, which
has made comprehensive survey
OF the leading cities of the State.
The commercial engineering de-
partment keeps in constant touch
with the growth industrially, com
mercially and in population of All
cities in the State in which the
company operates. It's primary OBJ
1ect is to estimate demand for tele-
phone service at future periods.
The departments estimate of the
c1ty'S present population is 1886, 755
approximately 1000 higher than
the United States Census Bureau
figures just ANNOUNCED, 374,30O.
79,S68 Phone Here
Jan. l there were 1888 telephones
in operation here.
Estimates Of population and num-
Der of telephones for various peri
DDS in the future have been placed
by the company as follows:
BY 1880, population 400,955, tele-
phones 95,471.
BY 1910, population 5o0O65, tele-
phones 1920.
BY 1850, population 581 ,220, tele-
phones 143,159.
BY 1866, population 626 $50, tele-
phones 156,537.
The proportion Of telephones to
population in the estimate is higher
for the future. Estimated number
of telephones Is based on the family
unit, which constantly is growing
smaller.
Many Things Considered
In preparing and revising these
estimates, telephone engineers must
consider natural resources, indus
tries, attractions for new industries,
railroad facilities, location, past
growth, and many other points.
Their survey covers the entire
State. In forecasting the future OIL
indianapolis, such matters as the
phenomenal past growth and prob
able continuation at Gary and
Hammond must be considered.
Growth of the cities attracts resi-
dents from indianapolis and other
Indiana cities, as well as from out
side. However, residents of other
States come to I'LL their places.
Wage earnerS are attracted by in
duStries that can support them. In
dustries in turn frequently are at
tracted by natural resources.
Whole State to Grow
Indiana as a whole, the engineers
report, is destined for a most sat-
isfactory growth in the next thirty
years. Such advantages as being
the center of population for the
United States, being in the heart of
the market, good roads and rail-
road facilities are expected materi-
ally to increase the population. The
heavies growth is expected in the
steel district in the northern part
of the State.
This growth, however, will not be
at the expense of Indianapolis, the
estimates show.

are, perhaps, more filled with en-
gagements than those of the av-
erage big business man.
President Coolidge usually goes
to his Office shortly after 9 some
times before. He rises at 7. The
visitors begin to arrive at $50 or
10, and one after another he sees
them until about 1890, when he
retires to the White House for
lunch.
After lunch, he usually returns
to his Office for afternoon engage
ments, though occasionally an
afternoon is free during the sum-
mer when congress is not in ses-
sion.
Outside of official engagements,
there are the many other visi-
tors, including tourists, who pass

DETROIT, Sept. 28-John Ford
So, younger brother of Henry Ford
today was found dead of heart dis
ease in a vacant house at Fordson,
suburban city named for the mo-
tor rpagnate.
His body was found slumped
across g bed in the little home he
recently had purchased with the in
tention of reselling. The house was
unoccupied. ~
Ford left the meeting last night
of the Fordson city council, of which
he was president, for his home. He
failed to arrive, and Mrs. Ford
called the police at o'clock this

While driving home he was seized
with a heart attack, according to
the theory advanced by his son, and
stopped his machine near the va

cover after a little rest.
He leaves wife and three chill
dren.
Essentially a man of the soil,
he preferred to be known as John
Ford, and not as the brother of

his brother, they said, but he had a
