MADDOX SAYS HE
WILL RUN FOR GOVERNOR

Thomas Maddox, former state en-
gineer and recently under fire by thu
| Legislative committee investigating
highways, today announced himself ;
candidate for governor, subject to the
republican primaries, September g.
In declaring his candidacy, Mr.
Maddox said:
Il believe that candidates and pub
lie officials should with open candol
state their position on all pending
questions, but that the best future
platform is past performance.
AS politics is the science of gov
ernment' ! favor the interesting of
good citizens in politics rather than
the fallacy of trying to take politics
out of government.
Il favor a resumption of the con-
struction of the Arizona state high
way system under a single, qualified
engineer executive with full authority
and responsibility.
Il favor law enforcement secured
by peace officers complying with
their oaths of office, regardless of
the influence of law breakers, and the
imposing of just sentences by the
courts with the full knowledge that
such sentences will not be nullified by
frequent pardons and paroles.
Il favor religious and racial toler-
ance as provided by our state and nat
iona1 constitutions and the teachings
of Christianity.
Il favor a definite program of pub
lie improvement and development,
elastic in execution to be increased in
industrial depression and decreased
during times of prosperity, as such
policy will tend to reduce unenploy-
ment, stabilize wages and avoid the
tremendous losses and unfair profits
resulting from flactuating values.
Il favor a good system of schools
from Kindergarten to university as
the best agency for the preservation
Of law and order and the promotion
of human health, wealth and happi-
ness. favor the practice of economy
wherever consistent with efficiency,
but if education and economy cannot
both be secured | favor education ufl-
til knowledge secured through educa-
ion can produce both education and
favor the nomination as well as
she election of Judges without desig-
ration of party affiliation and the in
of public officials by the
judiciary rather than by partisan leg
slative committees. 4
i favor the examination of the
receipts and expenditures of all state
by the state auditor or exam
ner the same as the records of county
,fficers by the state examiner.
Il favor the abolition of state-pro-
noted gambling like the. late state
air pari-nlutuel horse race betting.
Il favor immediate definite action
hat will bring about the development |
If the Colorado river at the earliest |
possible moment. TO this end | favor
'atification of the Colorado river COM
'act when supplemental agreement /
las been executed among Arizona, Me- I
'ada, California and the federal gov
satisfactory to Arizona. This I
greement must give Arizona forever
IL the Arizona waters of the Gila riv-
r with all of its tributaries, the Bill
Williams and Little Colorado rivers,
,rovide for definite division of the
vater and power Of the main Colora-
o river and recognize Arizona's right

ultant products Of her natural re-
ources." MKNM

THIS ROBBER SHOWED. DOUBLE
DISRESPECT FOR THE LAW

Seems worse when an officers
house is burglarized, doesn't it
That's what happened at the home of
Deputy City Marshall j. d. Jackson
of Flagstaff few nights ago while
Mr.. and Mrs. Jackson were at church.
Things were pretty generally distur-
bed. Among items missing are some
clothing, food, a sapphire ring and a
lady's valuable watch. Other things
were laid out ready to carry off when
the burglar evidently became fright
ened' and beat it. He was likely
scared by Jimmie Gregg, delivering
milk.
