Old Veterans, Too Members of the U. A. E. and U. C. V., veterans of the Civil War, came next in the great parade, in motor nirs. They, too. vero heartily chwred. The npxt section -consisted of the high, school cadets. marching EOO strong under arms, and looking epick and span and soldierly in their uni forms. Thp.v were led1 by CupL C. D. Jones and Lieut. V. W. Carpenter, and following them came the high school girls' Red Cross division, also in uni form. With the caibits and girls marched the htrh school cadet band, the third and last in the line of parade. Hoy Scouts niarehtn? in formation and in uniform came utter the high school girls. A patrol of cavalry, a rank of mount ed soldiers, brought up the rear of the parade, though it was often out of posl tivm in carrying out its part of Keep ing things in perfect trim all along the way. The cavalry had been an unex pected addition, and though few of the men wore cavalry insignia they all rode like veteran.". Airplane Soars Overhead The routr of the parade was down Central avenue to Jefferson street. east to Second street, north to Wash ington, west to First avenue and north to the stand near Adams street, where iha parade disbanded. The parade covered considerable ground while In motion, and not once got out of order. During tho parade ,and before, late in the morning, another thrill was (riven Phoenicians to rouse them to the Victory loan in the exhibition of Cap tain L. K. Appleby and, Lieut 11. 12. Hturcken, the army aviators who flew here Saturday from Rockwell Field to pick a landing place for the flying cir cus which comes May 9 to put the fin ishing thrills into the great loan drive . . : I winch began yesterday. Driven by Captain Appleby, the big armv bird ; soared and swirled over the city for 1 some time, Lieut. Stureken as passen i ger dropping dozens of roses and hun dreds of piece of loan literature as the pilot put the machine through some of the most sensational stunts ever given over this city. The sheets of literature aroused much enthusiasm as they sailed, slowly to earth and were eagerly chased. Prayer of Thanksgiving Alter a triumphant march through the streets, the parade came to a bait at the stand at First avenue and Adams street and Colonel McClintock introduced Chaplain Walsh of the Seventy-seventh division Just back from France. Chaplain Walsh gave an in spiring prayer of thanksglvign for vic tory and appeal to finish the work. ood work was going on. a report from Warden C. G. Powell at the state prison at Florence being received that said every employe o the prison had subscribed, making the institution also 1,;0 per cent patriotic in the last loan ui'ive. Last night the "shock unit" of the loan workers the vounded service men appeared at local theaters and spoke and stirred up enthusiasm for the loan campaign. Overseas men ac companied hy cilivian workers and bands toured the Riverside, Washing ton and Isaac schools, making more addresses and stirring up more enthu siam. And in not one instance could Phoenicians be indifferent to the ap peal. in Full Swing Today Today 'two-minute men" will get into action in the loan drive and nrt.I The parade disbanded then., with thei their appeal to the others. Their talks A' special train carrying citizens of Phoenix and all ex-service men of this section who have previously returned j from duty in the camps or from over- j seas, will meet the members of the I 158th infantry when they return. This j was the decision reached yesterday j by the committee who are in charge of entertaining the returning heroes ; of the great war. The boys who have; already returned from service will be ' included in the reception just the same ; as the members of the ISSth and will j all receive an invitation to accompany j the committee and citizens on the i special train. I It is not known at this time the ex-! act date the boys will arrive and it i has not been decided where they will i be met, but possibly some nearby ; town. A patriotic program and enter- tainment is being prepared by the ; committee and one of the largest ; events in the history of Phoenix is j anticipated by those in charge. The : fact that all the ex-service boys are included in the celebration will make it a day of interest to practically every I citizen in the valley. In order to arrange a celebration fitting to the homecoming heroes it will be necessary to raise sufficient funds to pay the expenses. The committee reports that they have not met with the response that they expected and many have not subscribed who should. One citizen when approached by the soliciting committee stated that he did not have the money but. would eladlv donate a $30 Liberty bond to the cause. A slogan has been adopted ' by the entertainment committee that should remind those who have so far failed to donate that they have not entirely fulfilled their obligation to the boys who fought for them. It is "You sent them away with a smile, bring them back with a whoop." Further details of the program to be arranged for the entertainment of the boys and the progress of the com mittee in raising funds will be an nounced In the near future and the date of the celebration will be given out as soon as the information is re ceived. o 10 BITS I M IS E conclusion. "The Star Spangled Kan ner," by the loan band. The Victory Liberty loan drive, opened so well by the parade, went on by leaps and bounds during the rest of the opening day. Solicitation on the streets for bond subscriptions began al most as soon as the parade disbanded, and district workers flocked to head quarters to obtain their buttons and receipt books that they might begin the solicitation in the residence dis tricts. The down town soliciting sta-" tions were in charge of a group . of capitol girls headed by Cecil Koyc, arid their names and locations fol lows: ' Capitol Girls Aid " Miss Elizabeth Pruett, Miss Louise Cass.

By today the drive is expected to be' in full swing with women teams sociliting throughout the residence dis tricts and men teams downtown. The committee has everything set for a whirlwind campaign and a speedy vic tory at home to clinch the victory won by the fighting men. All that remains is for the citizens of Phoenix to buy bonds.

Colo.. April 21 At largely attended meeting of miners, the organization of a union, known as the Leadville Miners', Mechanics and en gineers' association was perfected for the express purpose of dealing with a situation which rapidly drifted along without guidance or direction. The principal business of the new organization was to continue a com mittee of miners with power to nego tiate a settlement of the strike, which has now extended to nearly all the mines of the district. Through the efforts of a committee of businessmen, a meeting ' has been arranged between the principal mine operators and miners committee, and it is expected that at this meeting the entire local mining situation will bi thoroughly gone into. The meeting will take place tonight and it is under stood that a proposal will be made fui a settlement on the basis of $4 a dny, instead of the $3.75 offered. For the first time since the present dispute over the announced reduction in the wage scale arose, a committee of miners and the largest mine op erators met In conference and endeav ored to arrive at an understanding. The meeting was held behind closed doors, and at its conclusion, it was announced that no decision had been arrived at, but that further confer ences would be held tomorrow. The matter in dispute is 25 cents a day. The miners committee, it is understood, is authorized to negotiate for $4 a day, and the operators have stated that $3.75 was the best they could concede. Speakers at P.iverside tonight are W. V. Anderson, Sergeant J. W. Ogg, marine Private Carr. At Isaac school, former Mayor Ceorge TJ. Young and Chaplain Walsh. At Washington school, Captain J. L. Alexander, commander of the Span ish War veterans; Captain Claude De catur Jones. Orchestras of the Rose Tree, and the P Arbor played at downtown corners last night aiding the Victory loan solicitors. The state house went over the top with a loud bang the first day of the loan. The land department claims the honor of being the first department to demonstrate their 100 per cent Ameri canism. The live stock sanitary board, secretary of state force, the supreme court, the governor's office, the whole capitol, all made a home run with Vic tory bonds in the first inning. The assault on the seat of government was led by Mrs. Mabel Craig, of the sen ate attaches, ably seconded by a num erous committee from the young women employed there. J. T. Whitney, W. J. Burns and Frank De Souza have been appointed a committee to solicit subscription for the Victory Loan among the mem bers of the Knights of Columbus. The cemmittee was named following a stir ring appeal for the loan made by Rev erend Father Walsh at the Knights of Columbus banquet at the Woman's club on Sunday evening. , The City band section of the Liberty Ioti band played last evening at the Washington school. Victory loan talks were made by Captain J. L. B. Alexan der of the Spanish War veterans and Captain Claude Decatur Jones, commander-in-chief of the Great War Vet erans association.

"And the foremost obligation of which I can think is the duty .of every American citizen, of humble station or high, to guard jealously the honor of the nation; to regard its committments as his own .and willingly pledge his la bor and his substance to a complete payment of the debt. "The honor of the government is in volved. Being your government, it is your honor that is involved and I know that the appeal of the American gov ernment to the American people will meet a response of which the nation will be proud."

These ministers naa aiscussea the problem Insistently with Premier r,lamAnA.ii -" .1 Pramiai T.ln'M Genr?e earlier in the day, and for fhe purpose oi Dringmg tne matter to a iumu president Wilson attenaea me aiier noon session. It was then expected that the ques tion, which up to that time waB con sidered almost insurmountable, would be decided, but owing to the absence of the Italian delegates, discussion of the Italian claims was dispensed with. It is announced that the council will take no further action on the subject, pending information as to the future course of the Italians. Germany has accepted all of the con ditions of the allies with respect to the Versailesa congress. The aspirations of Italy in regard to the Adriatic sea coast still appear to be the Insurmountable question before the council of four at the Paris peace con ference. Sunday's discussion of the Italian claims was followed Monday by two additional conferences, but as yet there apparently has been no breach in the deadlock tiver the demands which the Italians consider Irreducible, and the compromise offer of the other partici pants in the negotiations Premier Clemenceau, David Lloyd George and i-resiaent Wilson. As in the case of Sunday'B discussion, rresiaent Wilson did not attend Mon day morning session of the council of four. He did, however, gather with the statesmen for the later session in the afternoon, and was reported to be ready to issue a public statement on the situ ation surrounding the controversy, in case an agreement was not reached. That there is no immediate prospect that the impasse is to be breached with out further argument, possibly, as in dicated by an official announcement that the convening of the Italian par liament, which was to have taken place Wednesday, and before which Premier Orlando and Foreign Minister Sonnino hoped to place the facts accomplished, has been postponed for two weeks from next Wednesday, Until May 6. A delay of three days also is in pios pect for the meeting at Versailles be tween the representative of the allied and associated powers and the German delegates, for the delivery to the Ger mans of the allied peace terms. The German delegation. Marshal Foch has been informed, cannot reach Versailles until April 28. Originally they were invited to be there April 23. The three day delay possibly may be of benefit to the allies in completing the draft of the lengthy peace doeument., which is said to approximate 100,000 words. Some doubt has been expressed that the allies would be able to give tho Germans more than a summary of their peace conditions at the first meeting at Versailles, owing to tho length of the document. Talk of the German government send ing merely "messengers" to Versailles to receive the peace treaty, Is discounted by official information received by Marshal" Foch, that the German dele gation will consist of six high person ages, headed by Count von Brockdorff- Rantzau, the foreign minister. A new provision of the peace treaty, intending to make impossible any at tempts of the Germans to utilize outside forces to re-establish their military machine, has been approved by 'the council of foreign ministers. This is a prohibition of the sending by Ger many of military instructors to for eign countries. President Wilson conferred at lentah Monday with Baron Makino and Visy count Chlnda of the Japanese peate delegation. The general strike In Berlin is ended.
