Local Democrat
Views Political Sit
uation In Arizona

Returning yesterday from
weeks visit to Phoenix and otner
points in the southern part OF the
state, Sam Proctor, local Democrat
jc leader and candidate for repre-
sentative from the WinsloW district
gave out some interesting views re-
garding the political situation IN
connection with the coming Demo-
CT sic primaries.
Asked what his opinions were,
and impressoins gained, MT. Proc
tor said:
"The political situation, as l see
it, is very complex. The outstand-
ing issue is the Colorado river
question. other issues are only
side shows. There is going to- be
more money spent in this election
than any previous one. Carl Hay
den, who has served the state IN
Congress since it's admission to the
Union, will bear the brunt of the
Republican attack and the national
organization will leave no stone un-
turned to elect Ralph Cameron. In
spite of this, Hayden is stronger
today than ever, and it is my pre-
q :iction that he will be the winner
with the usual large majority.
GA. A. Belts seems to lead the
field in the Congressional race and
the well-based prediction OF MS
friends that he will be elected finds
favor in every quarter. His valu-
able service on the Corporation
Commission makes him deserving
of the promotion.
Governor Hunt, the veteran OF
many a political battle in Arizona,
does not seem to have lost any of
the support which has made him
governor for five terms, and in al
most every corner of the state the
slogan: Not How Long, But How
Well has been coined to fit the oc-
casion, and it is my opinion that he
is stronger than ever. The people
of Arizona will never submit to
corporate domination in the affairs
of state.
James Kerby, the present sec
retary of state, is out in the lead
for that office, and should be elect
ed. He has the experience and
ability to manage this important Of
flee and his interest in the passage
of an equitable automobile license
law will meet with the approval of
large majority of the voters about
the entire state.
''It is my opinion that Kerby will
receive a handsome majority in
.Iaricopa, the home county of his
}opponent."

James Kerby Here,
Speaks Of Candidacy
For Reelection

Here for several days this week
enroute to the southern end of Ma
vajo and to Apache county, James
H. Kerby, present secretary of state
and candidate for reelection, stop
ped over in Winslow for several
days before proceeding to Flagstaff
and Williams and on to Kingman.
Speaking of his candidacy and
his chances for reelection, Mr..
Kerby said he felt that his quail
fications and experience due to his
service in that important state Of
flee entitled him to reelection.
Mr.. Kerby bases his claims to
reelection upon his record of eco
nomy, efficient conduct of the Of
flee, resulting in the saving of
large sums Of money to the tax
payers of the state and his general
fitness for the high office which >he
has demonstrated during his ten
ure.
After reciting his accomplish
ments since he was elevated to the
position of secretary of state by
the voters of Arizona, Mr.. Kerby's
statement concludes:
Upon my record of economy, eff.
ficient service and being familiar
with the duties of the office, / ask
the support of the taxpayers and
voters of Arizona, at the time when
the state of Arizona needs expert
enced and competent state officials,
to renominate and elect me secre-
tary of state. If reelected 1 will
continue to look after the interests
of the taxpayers as 1 have in the
past"
Mr.. Kerby cites figures to show
that he has saved the taxpayers of
the state approximately $4,000 in
the operating expenses of the office
Notwithstanding the fact that the
receipts of the office in that time
have increased 430 per cent, or
from $2S9,571 in 1921 to $1,247, 1864
in 1925. He considers this one of
the outstanding achievements of
his administration, and refers to
it with pride.
Illustrative of how fast the VOL
ume of work in the office is grow
ing, Mr.. Kerby points out that au-
tomobile licenses have increased in
the last three years from 1884 to
68,029. They have grown to such
an extent that an automobile de-
partment is necessary, he says, and
law has been drafted with this
in view, as well as the reduction
of taxes, which will be placed upon
the ballot to be voted upon at the
general election, November 2.

Freight Rate Cut
Western District

WASHINGTON - Declaring that
no financial emergency existed in
the western district as a whole,
the interstate commerce commits
sion last Friday denied application
of the railroads in that territory
for blanket increase of 5 per cent
in freight rates.
1t also denied the petition of Sc
curity holders of northwestern car
riers for an additional Is per cent
horizontal increase in rates in
western trunk line territory, and
held the earnings of the roads in
the west as a whole had not been
such as to warrant at this time a
general downward revision of
rates on farm products,
The commission admitted, how
ever, there were many inequalities
in the rate structures in certain
sections Of the west which should
be corrected, and said it's conclu-
sions were without prejudice to the
determination of issues in it's gen
eral investigation of the country
freight rates as ordered
While fuller information was
said to be necessary before any
action could be taken as to rates
on agricultural products, which it
was specifically required to inves-
tigate under terms of the Hook
Smith resolution, the commission
suggested that the roads, in pro-
posing rate changes to improve
earnings or rectify inequalities,
should ask no advances in rates on
farm products except where parti-
cular charges need adjustment to
remove Inconsistencies or where it
could be shown that the product is
not affected by depression.
Carriers in the west, the commits
sion said, appear to be both 'finan-
cially and physically sound" al
though it was added that certain of
the trunk carriers in the north
western region and in western
trunk line territory were not yield
ing 5.75 per cent, the figure held by
it to be a fair return, upon any
TdC0 OASIS IIldI COulO ISctOOAdUIy UC
adopted in advance of final de-
termination of present values for
rate-asking purposes.
The least favorable conditions, as
far as carrier revenues were con-
cerned, the commission said, ap-
peared to exist in western trunk
line territory. 1t was added, how
ever, that in the entire western
district conditions had recently
shown an improving tendency"
Provisions in section 15-A of the
transportation act directing the
commission to initiate, modify, es-
tablish or adjust rates so that
carriers may earn a fair return
were described as not relieving the
railroads from the primary duty oi
initiating rates" That function
