WHY NOT A PERMANENT
VOTERS LEAGUE?

Though the elections are passed
and the voters have again turned
from campaign issues to orderly
every day thoughts, there are some
considerations which, at least as far
as progressive citizens are concerned,
demand continued attention.
Most impressive of these is the
fact that though our population num-
bers nearly $4,000 in the city proper,
only 1000 poll tax payers are listed
on our official records. Such a
small number is not complimentary
to our professed progressiveness.
1t is reasonable to presume that at
least one out of every five OF us is
of voting age According to such
reasoning we have az least possible
5000 voters.
Why should we not strive to have
that many actual voters?
Progressive people keep abreast of
the times They think in terms Of
benefits to themselves to be derived
from actual participations in all
affairs which directly concern them.
Every citizen should be voter.
Many of our people fail TO become
qualified voters because the necessity
of voting is not made plain to them.
1t is the duty of those who know
and realize the Importance of per-
forming this duty to impress II upon
their fellows.
A Voters League could do much in
this REGARD.
SUCH league among our people
would be a useful and important
factor in their civic lives.
In impressing upon them the need
of voting it could more clearly de-
fine for them the relationship between
citizen and city proper. the system
OF taxation and the various work
ings OF Institutes for the service of
the public which they now consider
as Of no vital Importance to them.
Such league would awaken and
centralize Negro civic interest, inn
prove the knowledge of individual
duties TO be performed as well as of
benefit to be derived from civic par
ticipation.
We need such an organization
which would welcome as members
all eligible to vote who are among
us.

FORMAL OPEN|NG APRIL 3O IF NAT. BANK IF ARIZONA

As the work of completing the re- modelling of the National Bank of Ari-
 zona building Is nearing completion.
 much interest is aroused in this new
 and beautiful bank building, that is
 real credit to any city and probably
 the most beautiful bank interior west
 of Kansas City to the coast. The
 work of remodeling has been going on
 for about 10 months, somewhat
 handicapped by the fact that it has
 been necessary to use the bank at
 the same time that the changes were
 being made. The officers of the bank
 have several times expressed their
 most sincere appreciation for the pa
 tience of their patrons in putting up
 with the inconveniences coming from
 the changes
 About two months ago half of the
 bank was completed and the working
 quarters were moved into that part,
 and during the next week the balance
 of the work will be completed and
 the opening of the finished bank will
 be on next Saturday, April 30. The
 opening will create a great deal of interest, as it will be the first oppor- turity that many of the people of Phoenix have ever had to Took be- hind the curtains of a bank that is up to the minute in every respect with every known device for security and safety.
 Show Faith in Phoenix Phoenix has every reason to be proud of it's new bank. and the off cials of the National Bank of Arizona are to be commended upon this ex- precision of their faith in the future of the Salt River valley, for they have gone ahead and built banking house that will accommodate an i'm l mense volume of new business, which business they feel sure is here. The interior of the banking room is entirely finished in Tavernalle mar 1 ble, a soft finish, pink -tinged marble 1 that is a wonderful relief from the | usual mausoleum white marble ot many banking buildings The marble 1 columns are in harmony with ar l artistic but simple ceiling design tha' ] adds much to the restfulness of the banking room.
 1 The real feature of the banking l room is the use of the low fixtures 1 which permits of far closer and nor, 1 intimate dealings with the bank off 1 cers, without an iron grating between l The low fixtures must be seen anC used in order to fully appreciate theil l superiority over the old style banl i fixtures.
 1 The officials of the bank are plan ming the formal opening for Satur l day, April 30. at which time the entir, i banking room will be completed. 1
