) reputation which the legion has

the reputation which the legion has
maintained and urged all members
to make it their duty to see that the
reputation so attained be not be-
smirched
Following DAVIS address, a 'nand-
some cup was presented to the Nor
gan McDermott post, of Tucson, for
having secured the greatest percent
age of increase in membership of any
post in the department.
Colonel Dougherty explained the
policy which he had followed in Sc
lecting speakers for the convention
and stated that in order to preclude
the possibility of criticism for mix
ing politics with the affairs of the
legion he had only invited state Of
ficials now holding office. Senator
Ralph H. Cameron, he explained, was
in the east and had telegraphed his
regrets.
Following Hayden's address John
Renoe, state veterans service officer.
delivered a short address in which
he outlined the nature OF his duties
to the disabled veterans.
Fl. T. Hardaway, regional manager
of the Y. s. veterans bureau, was
the last speaker of the session and
told the delegates of che efforts be-
ing made by the veterans bureau to
bring to just settlement all pending
claims of disabled men. He explained
that in the past the work of the
bureau had been greatly impeded by q
maze of technicalities, adding that
most of the difficulties on that score
were being removed.
Hardaway also explained briefly
some of the new regulations affecting
disabled men, One of the best of the
recent rulings, he said, was the de-
cision to pay the sum of $50 per
month to men whose cases of tuber-
culosis had been arrested, thus aid
ing materially in the re-establish-
invalids for several years. He also
announced the extension of the time
limit for vocational training courses
and another extension Of the time
limit for converting war risk insur-
ance. Another new regulation,
Hardaway explained, provides that
any veteran who hiss to absent him
self from his work in order to ap-
pear for a medical examination will
receive the sum of $265 for each
day SO lost
After hearing and passing upon
several resolutions and reports the
delegates adjourned until the third
session of the convention, to be held

SPEAKS BEFORE
VOTERS OF CITY

]
Thomas Maddox, candidate for the
republican nomination for governor,
! addressed an enthusiastic crowd at
Tenth street park in this city Fri
day evening.
The candidate surprised his crowd
when, mounting the speakers plat
form, he walked forward and intro
duced himself, saying:
"I,m. Tom Maddox. I'm running
for governor"
Maddox commenced his address by
giving to the voters an explanation
of the problems, advantages and dis
advantages connected with the Colo
RADIO river development that was eX-
ceptionally lucid and all in the park
, had clearer understanding of what
can be done and what can not be
done when he got through.
'aThe real issue today" he began,
lis what is to be done with the river;
it means the whole future of the
state"
What action is taken on the river
will be immutable and eternal; the
people who become possessed of the
resources of the river will refuse to
give them up; the decision can only
be taken once and no chance for a
change of mind will be permitted, the
engineer candidate explained.
Maddox explained that whiel there
on the colorado river, that there
were only three reservoir sites large
enough to hold the flood waters and
also absorb the silt. He stated that
none of these sites were in Arizona
alone but were between this and
other states He claimed the Glenn
canyon site was the best for Ari-
zona because it would regulate the
river for all the lower power dams
enough to deliver water by gravata-
tion to the maximum amount of land
and also be where there would be
the minimum amount of evaporation.
eve probably cannot afford" he
said, ito put in expensive rock tun-.
nels and bitches today to irrigate
by gravity. We can put in dams,
develop power, deliver it over Ari-
zona copper wire to pumps in the
lower portion of the river and by
raising water 200 feet irrigate 100000
acres in the Gila valley and vicinity.
This sounds like a heavy lift but it
is not when we have cheap power
as is shown by the fact that Los
Angeles is already working on an
adqueduct that will lift water over
| 1900 feet over the coast range to
irrigate more grape and citrus land
around that CITY,"
He declared that Douglas was in
terested in this question, as cheap
electricity would mean pumping de-.
velopment in the Sulphur Springs VAL
ley which he was familiar with by
having run the levels for the rail-
road down the valley more than 25
years ago. Also because the Colo
RADIO development would give the
only practical tax reduction. In clos
ing, Maddox paid tribute to Senator
Ralph Cameron's success in securing
results beneficial to this state He
admitted that Arizona was democratic
and said the republican candidate for
governor would have to possess a
record of accomplishment in order 20
win. He stated that all he wanted
the republican party to do was to
compare records of service to party,
state and nation, and he would cheer
fully accept the verdict.

In THE DAYS NEWS

Declaring that the Protestant
Church is incomparably rich in
money. organization, influence,
power and yet failing to produce
anything like apostolic results, a
group of Bishops and other lead
ers has launched plan for a ma
tion-wide campaign to bring the
church to greater effectiveness.
Out of the 135 bishops of the
church the one chosen to lead the
crusade is the Rt. Rev. Thomas
G. Darst, bishop of the diocese of
Eastern Carolina. Though COM
paratively young in years, Bishop
Darst has earned wide reputa-
ton for his organizing abilities
and his enthusiastic leadership in
the church. He is fifty years old
and native of Virginia. His
academic education was received
at Roanoke College and his theo-
logical training at the Theologi-
cal Seminary of Virginia. After
his ordination in 1903 he filled
pulpits in Richmond, Newpor;
News, and other Virginia cities
until his election to the bishopric
in 1915.

Important Role

Among the host Of clever per.
sons who combine to make TIE
perfect picture production, there
are a great number who go on,
day by day, doing their bit in a
creditable manner without ever
appearing in the spotlight.
Prominent among these, is the
~gag man." In movie terms, a
s'gag" is a situation, ordinarily
quite independent Of the plot but
relating generally to the story. In
other words, it is an interesting,
and more than often comical side
light, that adds tone, color, and
life to the story.
The gag man" is the one who
thinks these situations out and
adapts them to the plot. Nowadays
no good feature picture is without
lis gags"

farce by Mary Roberts Rinehart

rich IN action, drama, romance and
suspense, and lends itself adj
mirably to INSTALLATION on the

There is the added factor of a
notable cast, which numbers
amongst its personnel such popu-

Mr.. Dyan is said to have ineor-
porafed in the production several
spectacular features, which set a
new high-water mark for realism
and thrill. Among these is cited
a stirring fist fight, an exciting
battle in which several hundred
natives take part, a raging sea
storm. and cyelonic tropical tor
nado.
The story centers about love-
