 Dave Goldberg gave it as his view that the proposed bond issues are necessary to the future Phoenix. "I believe that they should carry, espe- cially the bonds for completion of the Verde water system and for the con- troI of Cave creek flood waters" he said.

Miss Christianna Gilchrist, super intendent of the Associated Charities If the people of Phoenix could be brought to sealize the necessity for providing some means of employment for the many now out of work, food and money, the bond elections would carry unanimously. The carrying of any one or all of the issues means relief for hundreds of men now walking the streets. There are from eight to 10 laboring men call here for employment each day in addition to those trained in some particular line of work. Most of them want highway work. It is to be hoped that all the issues will carry"
 George Purdy Bullard-'I favor the bond issues and hope they all carry"
