 NO ONE TO URGE THEM

 The tax cases that were dismissei for lack of representation mean . difference in the state and county taxes Of approximately Sl60.090. ac- coriing to the tax commission. and raises the very important question as to whether the taxation of intangible assets. as provided in the Arizona tax law, can be sustained.

THIRD BILL VETOED
BY GOV. CAMPBELL

PHOENIX, Ariz.. March 12-Gov- ernor Campbell late today vetoed Sen ator Winsors election bill. his first objection to the measure being that he feared that the percentage of peo- pie registering and voting would be materially reduced. which would have the effect of permitting a group of men with a small following. once in- trenched in office. to indefni,e-y oc- cupy the same"
 The governors other main objec- ti0n, he said. was that it seeks to rivet on the people political affiiia- ton at a time when the tendency c; our people is to do independent think ing ard voting"
 This is the third bill to receive the governors veto this session. the other two being the slO,O00 oil bonus mea- sure. which the senate passed over the veto and which the house support ed the governor against the upper chamber. and the highway commission bill. which the senate was unable U pass following the veto.
 In his message to the senate d:sap- proving of the Winsor election mea- sure. Governor Campbell referred t9 the 1000 persons on the ray roll O.; the state as too efficient political machine to leave in the hands 9, one . party. while the other par:y's expArd- lures were limited as provided ;n the bill The governor further expressed his belief that there should be no ,ay to prevent state and county of cers from taking an interest in elections but" he continued. Fit is equally a2- parent there should be no reduction of legitimate work or legitimate ex- penditures by any faction within a party CT by political party itsa,.. in it's eadeavor to change the personnel of state and county officials"
 The governor declared himself in sympathy with those clauses of the bill aimed to prevent fraud, but in many other sections of the measure he pointed out changes which. in his opinion, should be made
 In conclusion, the executive suggest ed tha: the legislature appoint a com mission to draft new election e, de

THE DESERT FLOWER

(Ry Irene Wslch Grissom) On desolate sandy plain.
 Wherever the hot wind blows. Far from the breath of cooling rain A flower of beauty grows. It lifts a brave and dauntless head. Spreading its petals for fair. Above cruel thorny bed
 To the scorching desert air The horned toad sits by it's side
 And the lizard idly suns. Deadly rattlesnakes gleam and glide. The poison centipede comes. White bones lie in a gruesome heap, By flowers of pink and gold. High overhead the buzzards sweep, Winged-tragedy ages old. And in this dreary desert place
 The cactus blossom glows. Serene in its beauty and grace
 AS a pet;ed hothouse rose.

NO TIME TO BE A BEAR.

temporary period of financial stringency seems to
threaten the country at large It should not be serious
should last long It can if you will help be almost
entirely averted.
Fundamentally, business conditions are sound The
worlds demands are enormous the worlds surplus en-
trely inadequate AS producers get to work
effectively upon producing things to supply these great
demands, business will BOOM
There are two interreated difficulties in the way
One is what is so giby called the transition from
wartime to peace time basis" It takes little time
for manufacturers to get orders n to alter machinery or
arrangements back again from producing airplanes to
producing panos for instance And there is certain
doubt to which is going to sell better in the immediate
future anyhow, airplanes pianos.
In industries the production has to stop entirely
the other to be organized all over again There the
same hesitation to how the future will shape itself
The other difficulty is purely psychological" 1t is
excess caution amounting to fear If fear grips the con-
sumer his fear passed along to the producer He fears
to 90 ahead making. He fears to employ labor. Then
labor naturally cannot buy things, and there you are
hard times for everybody.
To avoid this let everyone take courage Let him
buy what he needs this week without waiting in the eau
tious state which breeds hard times
Don't wait to buy your dozen eggs today, lest the
price drop tomorrow. Be thankful you've got todays
price, and buy, moderately, what you need. Don't wait
to buy inoeum for the kitchen floor till next month or
next season. because you are afraid money may be tight
and you'll need the price for something else Don't wait
to buy decent spring clothing the office desk you need
If you are manufacturer 60 far you dare in the
way of new business
Holding off is the surest way to make hard times.
Keeping up your normal gait with cheerfuness in your
heart and Speech is the surest way to keep things good
This is no advice toward extravaganza waste They
too often nure business and everything else including
your own soul. @3
Don't buy silly things you don't need But do buy
reasonable things which you do need in your usual COM
Portable reasonable way Talk good business, talk the
swftness Of readjustment, talk sense and courage.
This is no time to be an ostrich or a bear.
