American institutions. It is opposed with equal virulence to labor organi- zation and to those who through abil- ity and thrift have become the employ CTS of men. Their members are unit ed in conspiracy to use. all criminal methods necessary for the accomplish ing of the political revolution they advocate.
 While the activities of the men mak- ing up the I. W. w. are without doubt criminal and would be punishable un- der the present laws, conviction could only be brought about by long and ex- pensjve trials. There would be many technicalities that could be employed to interfere with the course of jus tice. In my judgment a law should be passed that will establish definitely as felony the doctrine of syndical- ism, which advocates crime, sabotage and violence as means of accom- plishing industrial and political re- form. The law should also provide for a punishment for those, who seek to promote the organization of any such association or who shall become members of associations formed to teach these criminal doctrines, and earnestly recommend and urge that such a law be placed upon our stat utes as will be the means of ridding Arizona of these undesirable enemies of civilization, liberty, order and op- portunity for all time to come.
 Bond Limitation Should Be Removed
 The constitutional provision limiting the amount of state bonded indebted ness to $350.000 has proved a serious handicap in many ways to material progress. This fact was not only pointed out by my predecessor several times, but also by myself in a pre- vious message to your honorable body.
 The irrigation projects in the upper and lower Gila valleys, the San Car los storage project, the Parker proj- ect on the Colorado and others of less CT importance capable of retaining in the aggregate of not less than half million acres could, with govern ment aid, provide homes for many of the soldiers, according to the reports submitted to this office by the state land commissioner. The point is that the problem confronts us, but the money beyond the bond limitation is necessary to solve it.
 The necessity of good roads is ax- iomatic and calls for no argument. The Grand Canyon--that awe-inspir- ing chasm painted in wonderful col ors by the Master Artist of the Uni verse-the Painted desert, the Petri- fled forest and the Roosevelt dam are only few of the many attractions we can offer tourists. But they can not be enjoyed by the people of the state or turned to commercial advan- tage unless good roads lead to them.
 A direct tax levy, sufficient in amount to meet these demands, in my judgment is neither wise nor just. IL is only right that those who follow after us should help pay for the war which Germany thrust upon us. These contemplated public improve ments are directly resultant from the war. Bond issues, serial in character and of term not exceeding 20 years, provide the only feasible, practicable (Continued on Page Fiye)

Senator Ashurst's outburst for tn

Senator Ashurst's outburst for the purchase of Lower California would seem to be gracious return to Will liam Randolph Hearst for the many courtesies extended the senator dur ing campaign times. It will be re- membered that Senator Ashurst lik- ened this political savior unto the "man who walked upon the sea at Galilee." So far as Senator Hennery is concerned personally and politically it was the same. Hearst owns val uable property in Mexico and would like to have it under the American flag, providing Germany did not win the war.

The governor of Indiana has solved the problem of taking care of return ed soldiers. He called meeting of the employers of the state and had them agree that thy would not reduce wages until there was 8 reduction in the cost of living. That's shooting square and Arizona employers could well make the same proposition. Both propositions must meet on a common level along that line. Shooting square is the only thing that can and will bring together a wholesome, working whole.
