Captain Robson is 43 years of age.
He believes that Arizona will espe-
cially need a Republican senator in
Washington whose administration will
almost certainly be Republican He
also believes that a senator is wanted
who is earnestly interested in Ari-
zona's chief needs. the development of
reclamation and water power. to both
of which Captain Robson has biven
deep study.
He also stands for the following:
One hundred per cent Americanism
red -blooded Americanism.
Honesty. sincerity and humility.
Justice and equity.
More principles and less partisan
politics.
More action and less words in the
whole government.
More efficiency in the handling of
government business.
A closer control of our educational
system by the federal government, so
that the teaching of /. w. W.ism, ETC.,
can be eradicated from our schools;
also Americanism should be taught
throughout our entire school system.
The teaching of logic and efficiency
should be compulsory in all our schools
in the proper grades. If possible high
school education should be compulsory
for all our children.

Egypt and England are uniform in the
strong chance of the British govern
ment restricting cotton acreage in
Egypt in favor of foodstuffs after the
present season. This means a still
more restricted area for long staple
