GOVERNOR HUNT
WILL NOT AGAIN
BE A CANDIDATE

Governor Hunt will not be a
candidate for governor at the fall
primaries.
While 1 have never lowered my
lance when | felt that was in the
right" said the governor, II feel
that while it is yet early in the cam
paign and as we have men of ener-
gy, ability and patriotism who can
run for office of governor of this
state, pledged in defense of her in
terests and who are free from the
influences and control of the power
interests seeking control of the
government of Arizona and who
probably would be free from some
of the handicaps l must carry
particularly that of running for
sixth term about which the flank
attack has been launched, l have
concluded to decline to again be-
come candidate for governor"
In his letter to Mr.. Van Dyke the
governor declares that tremendous
sums of money are being spent to
pay for signatures on petitions
seeking to limit the tenure of office
OF the state government to two
terms.
81 am aware" he said, " that
will be the object of assault by the
combination of certain industrial
and political interests in Arizona
and that I will also have the oppo-
sition of the powerful trusts and
money interests of California and
other sections of this nation who
have unlimited money at their dis
posal."

NAVAJO COUNTY
TO RECEIVE JUST
TAX PROPORTION

Agreement to allow Navajo
County it's just proportion of as
sessed valuation covering several
thousand head of cattle and sheep
that range in both Apache and
Navajo counties was reached last
Monday when the members of the
Navajo county bo I'd of supervis-
ors composd Of Chairman G. G.
Payne, and members G. E. Owens
and G. E. Denham, accompanied
by County Assessor Wallace
Shumway and County Attorney P.
A. Sawyer went to st. Johns to
confer with the Apache County
officials
In the past it lad been learned
that Navajo county was losing
considerable in assessed valuation
for the reason that stock ranging
part of the time in this county and
part of the time in Apache county<
has been assessed as Apache
county property, while the law
presumes that each county shall
receive it's pror ortioll OF the as
sessmentt.
Following the conference Mon
day the Apache county officials
agreed to allow Navajo it's share
of assessable property end this
will be taken care Of through Co
operation of County Assessor
Shunway and J. A. Mineer, Ap-
ache County Assessor.

NAVAJO COUNTY
PUBLICITY ASKED
BY LOCAL CLUB

Feeling that Navajo county and
the Old Trails highway deserve
first call over any city's demands
for publicity, the newly reorgan-
lied Winslow Commercial Club is
planning to act as a booster orga-
nization not only for Winslow, but
for the entire county and the main
line transcontinental highway that
bisects the northern part of the
state.
This matter was laid before the
board of supervisors at Holbrook
Tuesday by a delegation of twenty
five Winslow citizens, and the eff
forts of the club and its purpose
was warmly commended by the
county fathers, who promised to
render such assistance to the or
ganization as lay in their power.
The sudden move was made due
to the fact that unless the super
visors were consulted Immediately
while they are sitting as board of
equalization during the first ten
days of June, they could not be
interviewed until their next regul-
ar meeting, which is in July. The
short notice given club members
and others be1Are the trip to Ho1-
brook made it impossible to get in
touch with similar organizations
in Holbrook, Lakeside, Snowflake
and St. Joseph, but the secretary
of the club is in communication
with these bodies now, and a UNI
fled county commercial club, with
headquarters in Winslow, is ex-
pected to be formed shortly.
Officers and directors of the
club are confident that the present
organization is a permanent one,
and that with its countrywide OBJ
jectives, it can, with the cooper
alton and harmony of other county
clubs, render distinct service to
Navajo county and all towns loc-
ated in its boundaries
AS stated to the board Of super
visors, the detectives Of the club
are to properly advertise and get
publicity for this county; to induce
people in other sections, who are
desirous of coming to Arizona, to
locate here; to cooperate with
other like organizations in in
creasing motor travel along the
Old Trails, and in this connection
to impress upon as many as pos
sible the possibilities of the Old
Trails as the scenic trip par ex-
cellence, and of Navajo county in
particular as a paradise for the
vacationist.
The many attractive vacation
features of the county, its mount
aims, its trout streams, the big
and small game hunting afforded,
2ra all features that lend them
selves readily to interesting publ
city that can be placed in periodi-
Gals all over the country. The
more prosaic side of the county's
activities, such as farming, stock
raising, and business, and its de-
STABILITY as a home. will also be
given the attention it deserves.
In the very near future the Win
slow organization will meet with
the directors of commercial clubs
of Holbrook, Snowflake, ST. Joseph
and Lakeside to plan the county's
campaign of publicity.

GRAY AND STEVENS
ELECTED OFFICERS
OF FREEHOLDERS

Small attendance and lack of de-
finite material with which to work
necessitated the cutting short of
the first meeting of the board of
freeholders, which was held Satur-
day night in the City Hall. Only
the routine business of electing
officers and setting the date for
the next meeting was planned, and
this was gone through with, o. l..
Gray being elected president and
G. T. Stevens secretary of the
board.
City attorney Phil Sawyer has
obtained copies of the charters of
other Arizona cities, and at the
next meeting, which is scheduled
for June 18th, the board will have
definite facts upon which to con-
struct a tentative charter for Win
slow. The board will continue to
reconvene until the charter has
reached a completely polished stage
at which time it will be presented
to the people of Winslow in spe-
cial election for their approval.
In the Mail two weeks ago the
story on the election contained an
error in the tabulation of votes for
the board Nof freeholders, naming
Mrs. L. ]. Bennett as one of the
elected, and George Hammond as a
defeated candidate. Hammond's s
vote was 354 as against 322 for Mrs.
Bennett. Final figures showed Mrs.
Horace Evans as the only woman
elected to the board

Scientists Discover Impor.
tant Facts About Weather
Influence on Signals.

SOUTH DARTMOUTH, Mass, Sep
TENDER 21.-Short-wave radio signals
are temperamental, scientists have
discovered. They have pronounced
preferences for certain kinds of
weather and even for certain times of
the day in making their headlong
dashes through space. Strange to say,
they travel hest when a broad rain
area includes both sending and receiv-
ing stations. Afternoon seems to be
the best time for short-distance trans
mission.
These and other curious phenomena
about the relations Of radio signals in
shorty wave transmissions to weather
and times of day have been discovered
by engineers Of the Massachusetts In
stitute of Technology. The expert
ments are being conducted under the
direction of DR.. Vannevar Bush, Prof.
Edward l.. Bowles and James X.
Clapp of the department of electrical
engineering, at a new radio research
station on the estate of Col. Z. H. r.
Green at Round HILL near here. The
work has been made possible through
the generosity of Col. Green.

RADIO BROADCASTERS
URGED TO BE CAREFUL
Accidental Death of Operator in
Illinois Brings Plea for
Greater Safety

In view of the death of a radio OPP
orator of WOk, at Homewood, H., a
fellow operator. A. l.. Woody, of Chi
cago, suggests that greater care should
be taken in all broadcast stations to
prevent accidents around the high
tension circuits.
He points out that the chief operator
of a station should see that no one
makes adjustments OF the transmitter
without wearing rubber gloves and he
says that accidents should be guarded
against Ivy all the safety devices pos
sible. inexperienced and young OPP
orators should he warned Of the dan
gerous circuits and contacts.

battery room or approaching a control

have fun charge of the tranSmitter,
which should never he subject to the
control Of studio managers, directors

While the receiving end of radio
broadcast or any other set is not con
sidered dangerous. it must he remem-
bered that the transmitting end of any
circuit is dangerous, since 1t utilities

antennae scarcely more than 20 feet
long.
The experimenters also have found
that signals are regular when the sky
is clear, but weaken or entirely dis
appear when certain conditions of
cloudiness are encountered, although
widespread area of rain which in
cludes both transmitter and receiver
generally has been found to give
better signals than those obtained in
clear weather.
Tests also are being made with
many types of antennae for short
wave transmission. These vary from
a small antenna mounted entirely
within the station to a large exterior
structure more than 100 feet in the
air. One Of the most remarkable facts
discovered in the short-wave research
Is that signals may be sent great dis
tances without a large antenna struc-

tenna system may be turned to any
direction, both in vertical and hori-
Zontal angle.
The direction in which the rods
point when in a horizontal position
apparently has little effect on the
strength of the signals at the receiv-
ing station although there are indi-
cations that the strongest signals are
obtained when the antenna rod Is
pointing north and south. Communi-
cations with stations at great dis
tances. notably Australia and Euro
