Gus A. Smith spoke cne hour this

than double the number that hearl
Governor Campbell last Saturday.
Men and women were very enthusi-
astic. over Senator Smiths talk, and
applauoed vigorously when he stated
that he had been almost continuous
ly in the service of the people Of Ari-
zona the past six years, without re-
cess.
Senator Smith answered charges
made .gainst him by opponents who
accused him of being an enemy Of
Labor, corporation man, and sup
porter of the Esch-C -Cummins bill.
The fact of the matter is, the senator
explained, that he had publicly stamp
ed the anti-strike clause as unjust
and cair, and that it could be en-
forced to the manifest injustice of

lie. He was absent from Washing.
ton at the time the bill was debated,
having been sent as member of the
Foreign Relations Committee Of the
Senate to investigate the Mexican
situation from San Antonio, Texas
to California.
Touching upon Tom Campbell
irrigation project and his manner of
procuring votes, Senator Smith re.
marked that Arizona cannot procure
irrigation appropriations by sending
a new man to the Senate without ex-
perience or acquaintances, as in Wash
mgton new men have to begin at the
bottom. He stated that the matter
of irrigation appropriations is al
ready we'll in hand by the irrigation
committee of the Senate, of which
he is member; and the way to go
ahead with it is to establish an ir-
rigation system wide in application.
Working in harmony with senators

Smith plans recommending meas
ure that Congress shall finally pass
bill empowering the federal gov
ernment to underwrite $300,000,000
bond issue for irrigation purposes,
the bonds running from 40 to so
years, the government guaranteeing
their payment.
Senator Smith told of his long
fight To keep Arizona from union
with New Mexico, and securing
separate statehood for the Youngest
state.
The League of Nations was clearly
and convincingly explained by the
senator He quoted Theodore Roose-
velt, Senator Root and others as ex-

ton 70 the fact that: 1.-The American
CONSUMER pays federal taxes at pres
eAt whether collected in the form of
stamp taxes on commodities. income
taxes excess profits taxes. or internal
revenue taxes of other kinds. The i'm
