OF BILL POINT ID REASONS
 FOR ITS SUPPORT

Although reEreftlnr that those who have been directing the fight against house bill s5 should have succeeded in filing a referendum petition against the bin yesterday. friends Of the bin announced that there would be no ictup in their efforts to bring Arizona into her own as a great sEri- cultural commonwealth Confidence in the ultimate judgment Of the lev cl headed taxpayers of the state Is the peg on which the temporarily dIsap- pointed homestcadcrs are hanging their hope
 As one homc~tcadcr put It yestcr- day when informed that the oppo- nents of the bill had scored a mo- mcntary victory with the filing Of the petition at the capitol: Well. you can fool some of the taxpayers some of the time. but they soon learn on which side their bread is buttered.-
 The proponents Of the measure as- sert that the filing of the petition Is by no means an expression of opln- ion of the taxpayers on the merits Of house bin s3 or ifs companion. house bill 13e ff Is for that req son that the filing of the referendum petition Is not giving them much con- cern.
 ITO show this petition Is not an indication of the sentiment of the taxpayers on the merits of the mat ters at issue" said a we'll known res ident of Phoenix. T can cite an incl dent which shows the ignorance un- der which even a leader in the fight against these measures acted
 He Is a prominent business mar -r signed his name to a printed adver- tisement for donations Of money with which to carry on the fight against the measures A committee of mcr who are interested in seeing Arizo. mas agricultural resources fully de veioped called on this business mar and asked him why he had given hi support to a movement which threat ems the life of important reclamation measures passed by the recent leEis iature.
 .-we asked him 1T he knew th' provisions Of house piii 1,e which i' the companion bill to house biil & and which Is dependent upon the sp proval of house bin s3 by the people He said he knew nothing about hous bill l3s and that he had never seen | or read it. He didn't know that hous
 
 which the state can exchange Go bonds for irrigation district bonds And yet he was asking the taxpay CTS to contribute funds to be use in fighting the provisions of fhi' bill
 We asked him further if he al not think if would have bceA bette 10 have first read over the provis ions of the bill and to understsn
 what he was doing before getting ou
 and fighting the bin and asking hi
 fellow citizens to help fight H. H replied that he didn't know the tw bills were so closely related and thz the success of No. 13e depended O the success of No. S1.
 And his case is typical of man who put their signatu- >s ro these ps titions. That Is why we are conf dent when the taxpayers learn tf true facts they will approve thes
