Loyalty and Courage
1t may be that the Tempe News
does not reach every home and hense
it is in order to record here that
Tempe citizens should give the pio-
neer newspaper editor, Curt Miller, a
whats the matter with Miller be-
cause he like some others had reached
the end of patience in listening to
jibes and slurs by people who pass
through Tempe and even by some
who live here and secure their bread
and butter here. Most Americans pa
tiently endure a lot rather than go to
any effort or risk any comeback to
their own selfish hides. Tempe has
been entirely too indifferent to re-
Elections upon the town by those who
pass through and those who live here.
1t is about time for some one to
speak out and it is about time for
all to stand by such move. There
is no better town than Tempe as a
place for home, an educational
center, good citizenship and a class
of people who mind their own busi-
ness. Tempe is not asleep. 1t is not
graveyard, it is not ready for burial.
it is not the conservative place it
seems. it is not behind the times.
Boost for your town. Stand by Miller
when he goes after the knockers.

Sources of Prosperity
The prosperity in the mining dis
tricts of Arizona will reflect in the
valley more tha nsome think. 1t is
not the price of cotton. cattle or any
farm product in Arizona that control
the major lines or prosperity. 1t is
just copper. When copper is good,
the state is prosperous. When cop
per is 10 wor the mines are closed
the entire state is down at the bot
tom. Personal friends in the various
mining towns of the state send re-
minders that prosperity is coming
back to the mining towns, hence to
the Salt River valley.
