Y. w. C. A. WILL SPONSOR
SEEING DOUGLAS" TRIPS
THIS SIMMER

"See Douglas First" will be the motto
and the example of many Douglas girls
this summer, for in accordance With
the plans of the local Y. w. G. A.,
Seeing Douglas" trips will be held as
part of the summer program of girls
work. A number of local industries
and business enterprises will be visited
by limited groups of girls to learn
something of the industries visited and
of their place in the community. Com
munity knowledge is part of the girl
reserve program, and these trips will
be limited to members of girls clubs
in the city. Considerable interest in
the plan has been already evinced.
Among the industries and firms to
be visited at different times this sum-
mer are: Copper Queen Smelter, Ari-
zona Gypsum company, Pure Food
Bakery, Arizona Edison ice plant,
/ Mountain States Telephone company
and several others from whom per-
mission has not yet been received. A
schedule of trips will be announced
later. In most cases the visiting group
will be limited to ten girls and leader
with guide, to make the trip as val
liable as possible.
| Some questions among girls and
/ older people IN the vicinity have, re-
(, vealed how little is actually known OF
] the industries contributing SO vitality tc
! the prosperity Of the city. These trips
/ are planned to remedy this and to show
/ local residents those things which g
stranger would make point of first
visiting in the city.

ceived their rings as juniors. Miss
Clara Belle Chaplin, a ring girl of
last years graduating class, wrote
recently from Chicago that when she
applied for position with a large
hardware firm Of, that city, that the
only character recommendation she
needed to get the position was the
Girl Reserve ring. With such recog-
nized standards as this, even in the
business world, wearers of the ring
may we'll feel that it is something
to live up to. During her recent
visit to this country, the Princess
Ileana of Rumania received a Girl
Reserve ring in recognition of her
work among the Girl Reserves of
her own country.
Members Of both the incoming and
the outgoing cabinet of the PEP.
club of Girl Reserves participated in
the ceremonial at which the rings
were awarded. Miss Alice Schwamn,
retiring president led the recita-

SIX MEMBERS OF P. E. P. CLUB
AWARDED GIRL RESERVE, RINGS

Six members of the PEP. club
and Mrs. Arthur w. Cotton were
awarded the Girl Reserve ring at an
assembly at the high school Friday
afternoon in recognition Of their ef-
forts for growth in body, mind and
spirit and the ideals for which the
ring stands.
The Girl Reserve ring is the high
est honor that a Girl Reserve may
receive and one of the highest that
any girl may receive, as the stand
ards held for its award are very
high. 1t is considered not so much
as an award for attainment of a
goal, as a recognition of praise
worthy attempt to reach high STAN
dards in personal growth.
Those receiving the Girl Reserve
ring were as follows Miss Kathleen
Beard, Miss Marjorie Bickerstaff
Miss Ruth Donohoe, Miss Mary Louise
Johnson, Miss Helen Struthers, Miss
LeSsie Raye Vickers and Mrs. Arthur
w. Cotton. Miss BickerStaff and
Miss Struthers are the first Doug
las girls to receive a ring while still
only sophomores in high school, they
having earned this recognition partly
through their work as members Of
the PEP club of Girl Reserves and
partly as members of Junior girl re-
serve triangles.
The other four girls have been
Girl Reserves for six or. seven years
and are graduating seniors. All of
the girls receiving their rings this
year have served on the cabinet Of
the PEP. club during this past year,
as officers or as committee chair
men. Mrs. Arthur w. Cotton has
been for a number of years closely
associated with the Girl Reserve
work here and in Bisbee and she re-
ceives the ring in recognition of her
work as leader.

BOSS PLUMBERS
DEFY JUDGE IN
LOCKOUT HERE
Injunction Mere Scrap
of Paper

Boss plumbers and the 5uiIding
Trades Employers Association yes
terday just laughed at the court or
der declaring the lockout of the New
Yorks 1000 plumbers to be illegal.
Despite the injunction granted by
Supreme Court Judge Thomas w.
Churchill in the Bronx, not one plumb
er in that borough had been re-em-
ployed when the working day ended
Churchill declared the lockout lille
gal because the plumbers in the four
city boroughs outside Brooklyn have
contracts which have not yet expired
The Brooklyn plumbers, on strike for
the five day week and $14 scale,
are also within their rights because
their contract had expired, the jurist
declared.
The master builders had paid no
heed to the Bronx judge, information
al officials of the Plumbers Union
admitted yesterday. They declared
that certain legal steps in connection
with serving the papers would not
bring results until Friday or Satur-
day. A similar court order in the
Queens court last week was utterly
ineffective also, and later was order
ed vacated.
Great interest was manifested
among buildjpg trades workers yes
terday by the mass meeting for all
workers in the trade called by the
Plumbers Helpers Association for
Friday evening at Ace Hall, 1872
Claremont Ave, Brooklyn. A dis
cussion of the perilous position con-
fronting building workers in the
plumbers lockout and helpers strike
for the five day week will be the
leading issue.
Plumbers helpers have signed up
with Edward Weiss, an Astoria con-
tractor, for 50 scale and the five
day week, President c. e. Miller an
nounced. Negotiations with anotha
firm are pending with a settlement
expected today.

Gin his address in New York on
April % the president said:
we are not making war on Mic
aragua any more than a policeman on
the street is making war on passers
BY This declaration did not square
with the then existing facts, consid-
ering that we had a fleet in Nicara-
guam waters; enough marines to form
a body-guard of six to each American
citizen in the country; created neu-
trail zones helpful to the conserva-
tives in which fighting is prevented
by our troops, guarded the railway
permitting only conservatives to use
its facilities; sold arms and ammuni-
ton to the conservatives. Any one
of these acts against a first-class
power would have involved us in war
the moment it was committed.
'In his recent New York address
the president uttered these words:
"'Our attitude toward all nations
is. one of friendship and good will
Toward those who are yet struggling
to improve the conditions of their
people and achieve a larger liberty,
lit is especially one of forbearance.'
Just A Smoke Screen.
ain view Of his recent action in
Nicaragua, these high sounding
phrases are exposed as a smoke
screen behind which his policy of i'm
perialism is being conducted with re-
newed vigor."
Meanwhile the government today
went ahead with arrangements to
disarm the rebels and police the re-
public. Rear Admiral Julian Latimer,
in charge of the American forces of
occupation, issued formal proclama-
ton calling on the rebels to lay down
their arms or risk the danger of the
shedding of blood"
More Marines Leave.
To help enforce his demands and
thoroughly police the country, the
first contingent of 800 additional
marines embarked at Quantico, Va,
for duty there today. They embarked
on two tenders, the Aroostock and
Medusa.
The Aroostock sailed first with 100
marines aboard. She is to stop at
Hampton Roads to pick up 45 more
and at Charleston, S. c., for 100.

Figure Out Means
To Cut Production

Capitalists machinery for the pro-
duction of crude oil seemed near a
complete smash-up yesterday when
heads of the profit-taking industry
met on the call of Walter C. Teagle,
president of the Standard Oil Co. of
New Jersey.
Teagle conferred with Secretary of
the Interior Work last week in Wash
ington on the over-production in the
Seminole field of Oklahoma where the
yield has jumped from 100000 bar
rels daily last November to 100000
barrels now. Crude oil prices have
slumped so per cent in the mean
while.
The big oil producers want the gov
eminent to step in and bar the So
