THE POLITICIAN AND PUBLICITY

AT the annual dinner of the American Newspa-
,,or Publishers associations United States Senator
David A. Reed of Pennsylvania, bei'atea ponelc-
ians for their methods of obtaining publclty ana
keeping themselves and their schemes IN the puo-
lie mind. a,
"An1ong us politicians" he said, the quack and
the trickster still flourish and the printed word
is their most powerful weapon. Would that you
the pubIishers) could adopt some schedule rates
for such political advertising and could decline TO
publish the appeal OF the mar ana cEafiaIaIi-
Scorn our words when you know that We are Ut
terino fasehoods Just as you scorn the dishonest
advertiser. :.
The fundamentals of government, he said, or
"sanity, thrift and economy, have no news value,
adding: - ),
who wish TO see the bobbed-llair bandit pass or
the criminal who is too insane for the Jail and not
insane enough for the asylum. And SO 1t is with
the political advertiser If he breaches sanity,
he lacks news value but if he defles common
sense and breaches the impossible, the printing
press is his willing slave
He said fair play was losing IN the struggle,
adding: Should prove, by the direct evidence OF
righteous men, that some prominent cltlzen IS an
honest, faithful patriot, no printing press is SO
mean as to cOndeScend to print 1t. But should 1
call train robber to testify to hearSay that robs
a dead man of his honor, old Gutenberg mme-
diatey hands me his largest, blacl5llne type.
"Should we preach that can not eat our
cake and have it, too, no man listens and no type
repeats But should we pretend we want tax re-
duction and at the same time advocate Inc bonus,
the increase of pensions, the German relief appro
priations, the raise of government salaries and
the hundred million grant to the wheat farmers,
the printed word takes up the refrain at once and
the impossible seems possible because it IS
printed"
He made but passing reference to the current
congressional Investigations declaring that much
of the testimony "can't be called anything but
undertaking. His audience laughed when he
said government officials had "fallen upon evil
days in Washington"
1--WE don't know when we reach there" he said,
whether our finger prints will be taken or if we
will be met by a welcoming committee or by your
fellow New Yorker Mr.. Vanderbilt

soRTER BATTLING?

One of the things which cause doubts in the
minds Of the lay citizen is the apparent lnconsls-
tencies of the governmental departments as az
fecting different zones at different times For
instance, it has been rather definitely stated by
the chief forester that no road funds could be
issued outside national forest in building roads.
In reading over Chief Forester Greeey's letter of
explanation to Congressman Hayden, which is
printed elsewhere in The Sun, we note the $4,000
proposed to be taken from the Flagstaff Angel
road project, is to be spent entirely outside the
national park and the national forest on the north
side of the canyon. It is all on government land,
of course, but it would have been spent inside a
national forest if spent between Flagstaff and An
gell. Col Greely's mention of the possibilities,
bare possibilities, of the Oak Creek road, its inn
portance and cost, does not release the average
local eye from the main rat hole. 1t does, how
ever, rather make one bat both eyes when $4,000
is lifted from a known, inside forest boundaries.
recommended fund, to be placed an outside
forest road where heretofore we have been led to
believe forest funds could not be expended.
Of course we know just well as we should,
that this has nothing to do with the Bright Angel
trail the development of either the north or south
side of the Grand Canyon but it is most battling
to say the least, to folks living out here who would
really like to have one road plan carried out at a
time so we could use it while trying>to build an
other The trout on Oak Creek are biting pretty
good, but you can kill suckers with club.

AGAINST POLITICAL BUCCANEERS

The National Republican, published in WASH
ington, announces it does not desire to be longer
known as the organ of the republican national
committee or the mouth-piece of the national or
ganizatiOn, saying:
The policy this paper intends to pursue might
prove mutually harmful should this impression
never based upon formal official relatlOASnlp
be permitted to continue.
This does not mean that the National Republic
can intends to swerve in the slightest degree from
its adherence to traditional republicanlsm, as set
forth in the statement of principles promulgated
as the platform Of the publication upon its re-
noval to Washington in 1918, and which is print
ed herewith. 1t will, however, refuse to support
that type of leadership and candidacy which uses
the livery of republicanism to serve un-repubh-
canism in.
The time has come when men and women who
are republicans from principle, rather than merely
for office, must cease t0sbe taken for granted by
politicians who use the republican party as path
to power, only to betray that party when IN Of
flee, and even to attempt it's destruction by the
process of boring from within in behalf OF causes
fundamentally at war with real repubicanlsln.
The time has come when those who believe III
the repubcanism of Lincoln, Grant, Garfield,
Harrison, Mckinley and Roosevelt must refuse
either surrender or compromise to demagoglc
radicals who are out of harmony with every real
principle and ideal of republicanism, whose only
relationship to the republican party is to use the
party for the furtherance of their own personal
ambitions, and who, when in office are dlsloyal
to its principles, its policies and it's programs.
Only by such resistance can the republican par
ty be saved There may be, and always has been,
compromise within the party on non-essentials.
But there can be no sacrifice of the fundamentals
of republican faith without destruction of the par
ty itself as an organization for the attainment OF
power and patronage. Political parties are of
value only in so far as they represent principles.
AS mere vehicle for the exploitation of individ-
uals they are worse than worthless.
The policy of compromise with destructive ele-
ments, wearing the camouflage of republicanism,
has already gone so far that these elements in
both political parties are now planning to launch
third national party while retaining, for the
time being, the advantage which comes to a thor
oughly nsincere and dishonest profession of alleg
lance to the existing parties

HEARD FOR GOVERNOR

The Sun prints the announcement this week of
Dwight B. Heard of Phoenix, for governor. Mr..
Heard makes brief, concise, understandable
statement Of just what he stands for 1t is re-
freshing sort of declaration on the order of the
Coolidge plan. Direct and without attempt at
misleading the general public as to just where he
stands the questions most vital to their inter
ests. If one does not agree in toto with him, one
is confident of the honesty of the declaration and
confident the man behind the declaration has no
intent or desire to cheat or doublecross friend
foe
We are willing to admit Dwight B. Heard is nor
politician, but he is what he claims to be- as his
past record will show, business man. Arizona
has not had much but politics as steady diet
since admitted to statehood. The general run OF
people who do not expect to make a living out Of
politics, are inclined to want man for governor
with acknowledged business ability and All
acknowledged lack of political ability. A man
who believes in using the taxpayers money to
carry on state government efficiently in the IN
terest of all rather than for certain classes or ee-
ments.
Dwight B. Heard is honest, man of splendid
business ability and filled with vigor and enthus-
iasm for the upbuilding of the state.
All true Arizonans want that kind of man.
All his promises are open for inspection. He
won't cheat to get the office.

have been considered a glorious vic

same ones who now walk mile for

What the world really needs to
make it better is to put the soft
pedal on a lot of people who are al

IS DIR. BUTLER RIGHT?

Dr. Nicholas Murray Butler, president of Col
umbia University, has no doubt drawn the wrath
of ardent prohibtionists upon his head by his APP
1t can hardly be said of Doctor Butler that he
is in the employ of the "Wets," the charge that is
hurled at most men who venture to voice opinions
differing from those who want to see prohibition
at any cost.
When men of Doctor Buffers cabre stand up
and publicly question the worth of the prohibition
amendment, it is time for the nation to stop and
think. Doctor Butler urges repeal of the law not
because he feels that prohibition is not worth the
price the nation has to pay for it, not in dollars
and cents, but in seeing respect for all laws drop
and witnessing many of it's leading public officials

It would be CHASTITY joke on Phoenix if the
railroad mining interests had secured all the nee
essary privileges in Phoenix for the 'Tide-Wate
ed Railroad and then put that city on side
track again. The recent sale of the proposed Tide
Water railroad to other interests begins to look
like one of the oldtime railroad manipulations for
the purpose Of securing special privileges IN ad-
vance of consolidating with the bunch not desiring
competition, but merely additional advantages.
We would hate to see Phoenix tied up in sack
after being SO enthusiastically for a main line
railroad yet there appears to be bunch of old
time ear marks on the new deal.
