ARIzONANS GIVE TO
 SENATOR CAMERON
 A GREAT RECEPTION

United States Senator Ralph H. Cameron is on his way back to Wash ington to resume his seat in the sen- ate chamber. He came to Phoenix less than three weeks ago to face a fed eral grand jury indictment charging perjury, and won a victory when the court sustained his demurrer to the indictment.
 The homecoming of ArizOna's first republican United States senator was made the occasion for numerous party jollification meetings. The first of these was held at the Hotel Adams two weeks ago, when more than 300 prominent members of the party gathered about the banquet table in his honor.
 Later, Senator Cameron visited the northern section of the state. Re- turning to Phoenix this morning, he spent busy day, leaving last night.
 Several stops have been scheduled by Senator Cameron en route to Washington. The first of these was at Tucson last night, where a repub- lican rally and get-together meeting was held by Pima county members of the party.
 Leaving Tucson by motor this morning Senator Cameron will visit Benson and Tombstone, where short stops will be made. Continuing the journey he will reach Bisbee about midday, where luncheon will be had with prominent republicans of that city. Tucson republicans have plan ned to send big morocade to accom- pany Senator Cameron on the auto ride to Bisbee.
 This afternoon Senator Cameron and party will be the guests of Doug las republicans, where a celebration in honor of the senator has been plan ned. Republicans from all sections of Cochise county will join in the rally tonight, Senator Cameron will leave Douglas late tonight, going direct to Washington.
 'I am more than pleased with the reception I have received in Arizona and especially in Maricopa county" Senator Cameron declared. Also it is indeed gratifying to me to know that my name has been cleared of the indictment returned against me by a federal grand jury.
 "I am going back to Washington to take up my work where I left off a few weeks ago. reiterate that I will fulfill every campaign pledge before my term Is completed"

 These memorials were built in the early days of the armistice, and bore on wooden panels the names of the local dead of the service. Of late they have fallen into decay, having been erected merely as temporary me- morials. The Legionnaires, remem- bery Army regulations which pro- vide that old American flags, too shabby for display, are burned, so that the torn pieces may never be scattered or soiled, intend'to apply the principle of destruction to the old "honor rolls" to prevent their abuse by souvenir hunters.
 An American Legion pilgrimage to France, Belgium and England is plan ned for this summer, and the steam CT President Roosevelt, with Legion skipper and an all-Legion crew, has been tentatively engaged for the trip. It is planned to start the trip from New York on July 25, with the party returning to the United States on September 8. Only members of the Legion will make up the passenger list of 225.

On one side the towering San Francisco mountains, and in oth- CT directions so plainly seen that they seem to be only a short distance away, are Bill Williams, Kendrick, O'Leary and many other mountains.
 Spencer has the water debelopment rights in a big portion of the San Francisco mountain watershed. He knows every foot of the surface, and his theory as to what lies below has so far invariably proven true in the face of professional disbelief. He has proven it true at Crater Lake. He is also proving it true at Lockett Mead ow, a few miles away, where he has built a 14O0 foot tunnel into the mountains to tap a vast underground reservoir.

NEW BABBITT BALL
 TEAM ALMOST BEATS
 LAZY NINE SLUGGERS

Perhaps the exhibition of ball play ing Sunday morning at the ball park was not the best ever seen here, but it was certainly one of the most ex- citing, the Lazy Nine just nosing out the Babbitt team in seven innings of "get up and go," "do or die," ball playing that kept both the spectators and the players on the anxious seat until the end of the game.
 Johnny Yost started for the Lazy Nine and was relieved in the fourth by Bud Cameron. Bob Mitchell pitch,- ed a good article of ball for the Bab- bitt nine, finishing strong.
 Carlson and Lewis both made cir cult of the bags for a home run.
 When the Babbitt team has a little more practice they will be hard to beat.

AMERICAN \LEGa1oN)

National headquarters of the Amer ican Legion has suggested to posts of the organization that they com memOrate in their Memorial Day ex- ercises the first anniversary of the death of former Commander F. w. Galbraith, Jr. Mir. Galbraith was kill ed in Indianapolis June 9, 1921, in an automobile accident. It is sug- gested that flags be flown at half mast, that a picture of Galbraith, draped with crepe, be hung in post club rooms or that wreath be plac- ed on clubroom doors.
 "Galbraith died in active service" the Legion announcement reads. "He was cut off in the midst of literally untiring efforts for nation and Le- zion. On his headstone may well be inscribed the words Mort pour la Patrie.'"
 II. Nelson Jackson, Burlington, Vt., the first man to cross the United States in an automobile, sailed for London, Eng, on May 20, to represent the American Legion at the annual meeting of the British Legion, made up of world war service men of the British Isles. MT. Jackson is one of the American Legion's national vice commanders.
 The greetings which MT. Jackson will present the British Legion in be- half of National Commander MacNi- der of the American Legion declare that "No generation of our nations have been so closely bound together Through the coming years it must be our mutual duty to so strengthen and cement these ties that from this great understanding may come peace for all the world"
 To build their clubhouse over an oil well was the unique and valuable experience of American Legion men in Waynesboro, Tenn. Oil was mo- ticed in a mud puddle in the Legion's back yard. Drilling began at once and oil was struck at 200 feet. The Legionnaires plan to erect a fine community club from royalties.
 The National Catholic Welfare Council has notified the American Le- zion that it will make Memorial Day this year an occasion for helping ex- soldiers get their just claims from the government. It is planned to di- rect public attention to the needs of the veterans.

AGAINST WAGE REDUCTIONS

At this time, when there is a great
drive on to force drastic reductions
in wages in every branch of industry,
the following statements, quoted from
an article by Holland" and financial
expert, in the Wall Street Journal for
February 2, 1922, may be of interest:
"At almost the very moment when
Professor Edwin R. A. Seligman, who
holds the chair of Economics and FL
nance at Columbia University, was
speaking to the New York Credit
Mems Association, Charles M. Schwab
was addressing 1000 members of a
business association whose guest he
was at their annual dinner.
professor Seligman went so far as
to disagree with many of the bankers
and with Governor Harding of the
Federal Reserve Board, respecting
frozen credits, for he asserted that the
banks today are carrying an enormous
amount of frozen credits. Further
more he asserted that all who believe
that the stabilizing of wages involving
reduction is necessary, are making
"a big mistake because reduction of
wages means reduction of the buy
ing power of the nation
1t would appear that even among
the most conservative business men
and economists there is a growing
realization that wage reductions at
this time will destroy the last remain
ing market for the farmer, the mer-
chant, and the manufacturer

WILL SUPPORT
Mine WORKERS
President Gompers Announces
Position of American Fed
GRAFTON of Labor.
WAGE CUT NOT JUSTIFIED
Veteran Leader Declares Profteerinu
Employers Are Seeking to Un-
duly Enrich Themselves at che
Expense of the Workers.

The American labor movement will
support the mine workers in their
fight against wage reductions this
spring, President Samuel Gompers of
the American Federation of Labor, de-
clared in q statement received by the
various unions in the New York dis
trict.
1.-THE public" added Mr.. Gompers,
that is paying more than war prices
for coal while thousands Of miners are
kept in enforced idleness and thus
forbidden to dig coal is also likely
to be fairly accurate in placing the
blame for a tie-up in the industry if
one comes
AT the present moment the mine
owners, swelling with profits reaped
from coal prices which have gone
beyond all bounds, are seeking to fur
ther enrich themselves at the expense
of the mine workers.
"The American labor movement and
the American people will be with the
miners if they are forced to defend
their rights. If they are forced to
fight against bloated, arrogant priv
ilege and profiteering for a fair wage
and for opportunity to go down into
the earth to dig coal, may they fight
good fight, for they will be fight
ing for justice, and Justice for the
miners Is the concern of all who love
Justice"
Referring to the demands of the
operators for wage cuts Mr.. Gompers
continued:
to make demands upon the mine work
ers is the height of braZen effrontery,
the acme of abandoned looting and pill
lage. Coal prices are sky high and
the retail supply is kept on the verge
Of actual shortage. Meanwhile thou
sands of miners are kept out of the
mines, thus creating a situation in
which there is no reserve supply Wis
ible to the average person.
The coal barons make their own
law of supply and demand, and they
make 1t just as drastic as possible SO
far as demand is concerned, worrying
not at all about supply except as it is
necessary as basis for baronial de-
mand for loot"
Reviewing the railroad together
with the mining situation, Mr.. Com
pers said:
1.-TWO of the great vital industries
have been brought to the verge of tur-
moil by government interference, by
injection of the ancient, out-worn idea
of compulsiOn, by arrogant profteer-
ing. 1t will take the steady demo-
cratic policy of the American trade
union movement, put in practice in
its full implications, to restore those
industries TO their proper function and
to properly serving the people of our
country"

LABOR OPPOSES THE PROHI-
BITION ACT

Repeal of the Volstead Prohibition
Enforcement Act and substitution of
a measure permitting the sale of light
wines and beer is urged by the execu-
tive council of the American Fedora
tion of Labor in a statement which
called upon all citizens to join with
labor organizations in a campaign
with these objects in view. The state
ment denounced the VOlstead Act as
"a social and moral failure" and "a
dangerous breeder of discomfort and
contempt for law"
The council, which concluded a
weeks session, last week, announced
it's intention to participate in the Con-
gresional elections through non-par-
tisan campaign committee which Will
indorse and oppose candidates Of ma
jor political parties, or enter lnde-
pendentS if that course is considered
most effective.
Before this decision was reached,
the councils announcement said, there
was caused to be made an exhaustive
investigation of the Volstead Act. 1t
was shown by this investigation that
there had been:
"a general disregard of the law
among all classes of people, including
those who made the law.
Creation of thousands of moon
sinners among both country and city
dwellers.
Creation Of an army of bootleg
gers.
can amazing increase in the traffic
in poisons and deadly concoctions and
drugs.
"An increase rate of insanity,
blindness and crime among the users
of these connections and drugs.
Increase in unemployment.
"Increase in taxes to city state, and
national governments amounting to
approximately one thousand million
dollars per year."
The federation did not protest
against the constitutional amendment
embodying the prohibition policy, the
statement emphasized, but considered
the Volstead Act an improper inter
probation in order that the new law
may be enforceable and enforced"

POLITICAL ACTION URGED BY
A. F. OF L.

Organized Labor throughout the
United States is called upon by the
A. F. of L. executive council to pre-
pare to go into the primary elections
everywhere. Where necessary, labor
will place candidates in the field.
This decision is included in the ex-
ecutive councils instructions to labor's
national non-p partisan political cam
paign committee to begin prepara-
tions for the coming congressional and
other elections and primaries. In a
public statement President Gompers
said:
"Under the action of the executive
council. and in conformity with A. F.
of l.. convention action, it is proposed
to go into the primary elections every
where to make certain that candidates
favorable to the rights and interests
of the workers are nominated. Labor
will place such candidates in the field
wherever necessary. There is unan-
unity upon this point among the
workers.
at need occasion no surprise II
there are in many districts candidates
placed in the field by labor as the di-
rect result of antagonistic attitudes
on the part of candidates in both re-
publican and democratic parties.
at is gratifying to know that state
labor organizations are preparing for
the coming campaign. Illinois has
been particularly active in making
early preparations, its plans having
been made in meeting held on Feb
ruary II. Attention is called to the
vitally important fact that there is no
active group in American labor that
has not fully agreed with the A. F. of
LIS political program and policies.
"There is a striking unity Of de-
termination as to the lines to be fol-
lowed and the tactics to be pursued.
There is every indication that this
unity will be the means of eliminating
from public life a great many who
have served the interests in servile
submission and who have been blind
to the great needs of the times"

THE REAL CARD MAN

The union man who attends his To-
cal regularly and handles the business
of the organization is apt to say with
degree of pride that he is union
man, but not card man.
The hustling unionist has little re-
gard for the card man, because he be-
lieves that the latter carries a card
only for the sake of the high wages
which it brings him.
He's right.
If a workman joins a union merely
to get bigger pay envelope, he is in
the wrong pew There never was a
time when a professional strikebreak-
er couldn't obtain higher pay than the
best unionist.
Unionism means more than big
wages.
Working for living never was a
cinch. But conditions are better for
both organized and unorganized work
ers today than ever before. This is
no accident.
Fifty years ago in free America the
average workday was twelve hours
long. Seventy-fve years ago work
men toiled fourteen to sixteen hours
every day.
The courage and sacrifices of the
early trade unionists made the ten
hour day possible. The untiring labor
of the last twenty years has brought
the eight and nine-hour day into gen.
eral use.
In those days strikes generally
were lost. Yet the workers plodded
steadily on with their organizations,
and the great unions of the present
are the result.
Both here and abroad, the unions
alone stand between the common peo-
pie and practical slavery.
If all the working people were or
ganized, the unions could wipe out the
open-shop systems tomorrow. If all
the workers were organized they could
crush the profiteers tomorrow. There
is not a problem that faces the COM
mon folk that labor's strength could
not conquer.
Here, then, is the mission of the
union-to point out to its membership
and to the unorganized toilers that
there is a great and never-ceasing
struggle going on between the powers
of wealth on the one hand, and the
people on the other-that the purpose
of the wealthy classes is to pile up
millions through the robbery of the
workers by means of low wages and
high prices, in order that they may
dwell in costly palaces and sail in pri-
vate yachts. That to retain a small
measure of the good things of life for
working people their union is neces-
sary.

FARMER HAS HIS TROUBLES

Senator La Toilette says the trou-
BILE with the farmers facing ruin is
"too much monopoly"
Industry, commerce and finance
have tape on monopoly forms," says
La Toilette. Monopolies control big
industries, raw materials, fuel trans
portation, credits. Quite naturally the
farmer, disorganized, everybody
customer and nobody's boss, depend
ing upon railroad for one thing, on
banks for another, has had a poor
chance.
The answer to the farmer might be:
"Why don't you organizer" You
have in your hand the greatest, most
necessary of all monopolies-food
Keep eggs butter, meat, milk, vege-
tables on the farm and the banker
will soon accommodate you.
