 BAILEY FOR ACTION
HOW TEXAS SENATOR TURNED HOPELESS SITUATION INTO VICTORY FOR ARIZONA.

PHOENIX, June 21.-"Credit for the passage of the statehood bill be longs to the democratic members of the senate, and when all the facts are known the Arizona people will be singing the praises of men like Senator Bailey and Senator New lands"
 J.P. Orme. president of the Water Users association, who is just back from Washington. made this state ment today. He proceeded to ex- plain the situation as follows:
 Senator Bailey was determined to get Arizona into the Union at this session of congress, and with the solid backing of the democrats ex- tracted a promise that the republi- cans would vote for the Hamilton statehood bill if the democrats would not oppose the administration rail- road bill
 Until Bailey got this promise there was no hope for statehood. The promise was made that it should be the Hamilton bin and not the senate bill that would be passed.
 When the senate took up state hood instead of the Hamilton bill. and the amendment knocking out the educational qualification. The demo crats voted solidly against this amend ment, but all voted for the amended cated the possibility that democratic bill.
 Senator Bailey and his associates felt that Arizona should have state hood, and that the people would rather have 1t in the present form than not at all Had the republican promise been kept with Bailey it would have been the Hamilton bin. however. that the senate passed.
 While in Washington talked with both democrats and republicans and learned that Bailey had made certain the admission of our territory. To his magnificent efforts we owe the fact that we are a state today. Every time statehood is mentioned it should be with words of praise for Senator Bailey and the democratic frineds we had in the senate"
 Orme's mission to Washington was to arrange with Secretary of the In- terior BBallinger for the power con tract under the Roosevelt project, in which mission he was successful. He remained much longer than he exp ected at the request of Governor R. E. Sloan, to assist in the statehood fight.
