CAMERON WRITES HE
 WILL DEVOTE TIME
 TO ARIZONA NEEDS

Declaring that it is his intention to give his entire time and attention to get appropriations for the highways and public reserves of the state, Ralph H. Cameron, senator elect, has written to Harry Welch, secretary of the cham Der of commerce, outlining his plans. His letter, written in New York just after he had recovered from an attack of illness, follows:
 Your letter of December 2S, ad- dressed to me at Washington. has just been received by me here. I have been here on the sick list for several weeks.
 Referring to the contents of your letter regarding the national park ap- propriations for California, I am pleased to advise you that as soon as take my seat in congress I will give my best efforts and energy to get ap-

every day and the hotels are unable to accommodate them. Phoenix makes a great mistake by not advertising more about its climate and glorious sunsets. They are, however waking up to it and realize that the tourist is a great source of revenue.
 "One of the great sights is the Roosevelt dam, which supplies irriga- ton for the entire Salt River valley and at present irrigates between 300,000 and 100000 acres of what was once worthless desert lands. Today. these lands are most prolific and sell as high as $500 per acre for the agri- culturist and $1,000 per acre for the orange and grape fruit lands. Almost anything can be grown here that can be raised in any tropical climate. In the way of fruits, oranges, grapefruit, dates and olives predominate. Vege- tables of every kind you might men tion, and one crop after the other the year around.
 Unfortunately, alfalfa, cattle, sheep, hogs and poultry, formerly the leading money makers for the ranchers. have been displaced by cotton and the past year ,000 acres were put in. The quality is the best iong staple Egyptian variety and the yield large. The slump in price has almost put the rancher out of business and were it not for the banks coming to their rescue with loans of millions of dollars they would not be able to hold their lands. The years 1918 and 1919 were so profitable that all the rancher could see was cotton and all his profits were put in the purchase of more lands for more cotton. Consequently the present low price has bankrupted many who a year or two ago were well off. It has been an experience for them and many will give up growing cotton entirely.
 We have taken many rides through the valley and the neighboring towns of Tempe, Mesa and Chandler and found the scenery very inspiring. The giant cactus in all its glory abounds or

FRIDAY, JULY s, 1921
INDEPENDENCE DAY

The one hundred and forty. fifth
birthday of this nation wac ceIe-
brated last Monday. This nation
has many things for which to b.
grateful. Speakers told us Of our
greatness and our power in the
world. There was much excus-
able lf-glori6cation and and we'll
meaning pride in telling Of our
wonderful growth and our much
to be appreciated freedom. This
is the youngest and yet the most
powerful of the great nations
All OF those things for which we
glorify ourselves are out standing
evidences of the great responsible
tiles that rest upon Us. We have
much liberty and many interpreta.
lions of what liberty really means.
In this rests one of our greatest
dangers. We have a boasted
freedom and yet 80 per cent Of our
billions of taxes is to maintain
armies and navies and to meet
expenses incurred by wars.
This nation has always stood for
lofty ideals, men have ever stood
ready to fight for these principles,
and yet we have the selfish dollar
hunters to whom lofty ideals of
the nations founders and .protec-
tors are meaningless and worth
less. They are always ready and
willing to coin into cash the mis-
fortunes of the nation and the suf-
fering of its people. This. too.
