STATE TREASURER
 RETURNS FROM FAST

Raymond Earhart, state treasurer. returned yesterday from Chicago, where he completed the sale for ,ne state of $1.50o,000 tax anticipation bonds.
 MT Earhart said that conditions in the East were practically the same as here, although everyone is taking an optimistic view. They feel he said, that the bottom was reached six weeks or month ago.
 "The financial situation is similar in the East to that in Arizona. Money is tight. Where it is cotton, copper and cattle here. 1t is rice, sugar and textiles there."
 In connection with the sale of the bonds, Mir Earhart stated that the states security was not questioned.
 There was no delay despite the fact that it so appeared in Phoenix, due to the fact that the treasurers office was unable to cash the warrants on receipt of wire from MT. Earhart that the bonds had been signed. It took several days to complete the business, he said.
 q signed the bonds on Saturday. On Mondays the attorneys examined the bonds, taking the day to pass upon them, and the final day they were delivered to the banks.
