SHALL WE. FALL AGAIN?

The drive to raise funds Boy Scout work in Wnsow
is now on UP late yesterday afternoon indications
we're that failure Of the drive still hangs IN the
balance due mainly to the fact that there has peen su
cent cooperation and lack of workers
The deputy regional executive from Los Angeles VINO
spent the better part week. with the Grand Canyon
Council made strenuous effort to get small band OF
workers who would cooperate to reach every member OF
the community to ascertain whether Scouting is wanted
here and if not why not.
So only few hundred dollars has been raised out
of a budget amounting to nearly $4,000.
Yesterday it was announced Scout Executive Valid
raven of Flagstaff will to Winsow and assist the
workers carrying the drive to completion due to the fact
that George Feker regional officer was called back to Los
Angeles.
The Daily Mail sincerely hopes that Scouting in Wins
low will be allowed to due to lack of cooperation and
financial aid Winsow people, It would be black eye
we never could erase.
So when of number Of pubicspirted citizens who
consented give their time and efforts to help raise

POOR BUSINESS

(Jerome News)
BY q mapority Of 6,259, the vot-
ers of Arizona declared against an
amended game law at the recent
election. 1t is a curious fact, just
made public, that every county in
the State except Maricopa gave a
majority for the amendment.
Nobody who gives the subject a
moments consideration will be-
lieve that the present law is sat
isfactory or fair; we all know that
Arizona's abundant wild game is
the magent that brings thousands
Of people and tens Of thousands Of
dollars to the state every year; we
all want the hunters to have every
reasonable freedom and privilege; /;
but we all want our game conserv-
ed and protected.
Many reasons are assigned
none Of them creditable-for the
action taken by Maricopa There
is no need to go into the details
of the dispute, but the fact re-
mains that one county was able to
defeat the will Of all the others.
Our state Game Protective asso-
Citations are doing a splendid work
and we should all support their
efforts to get a decent game law.
OF course, it will be two years
more before we can hope for a
change, but we may all remember
how this particular election was
conducted and we may all resolve,
right now, to work for a better
law as soon as it becomes possible
to do so.

CIVIC PRIDE
(The Williams News)

Civic pride is one of those in
tangible things which play a great
part in upbuilding Of any commun-
ity. All too fequently owners cf
property permit their vision to be-
come SO narrowed that they look
upon their property only from the
viewpoint of next months rent.
and permit their property to run
down. There are many pieces OF
property about Williams which are
no credit to the owner or the COM
unity, largely for this reason. The
owner who looks to the future will
look carefully to the upkeep of his
property and may confidently ex-
pect an enhancement rather than
Q decrease i'll the value of his prop
erty. Instances of this are t. be
found in Williams.
A ramshackle run down house
or other building i'll town is an
eyesore that Injuries the entire COM
munity to see a rundown uncared

tising the state must be a unit.
Get the people here and every sec
ton will get its share-every mer-
chant or professional man will be
benefited.
With colonization organized state
advertising goes hand in hand, and
here again Arizona is fortunate in
possessing an agency which has
the confidence of every section of
the state as well as many outside
contacts. This advertising should
not only cover land settlement
possibilities, but tourist attractions
industrial opportunities, resources
of every nature. State literature
Eust be the first step, and the pro-
gram should be expanded as rap
idly as funds permit
The colonization plan proposed
by the Industrial Congress, with
concerted efforts Of all organiza-
tions in advertising, and with a cen
trail state colonization board to
place settlers on lands best fitted
to their individual requirements
and assist them in establishing
themselves successfully is an ideal
solution. Financing will undoubt-
edly require consideration but one
Of it's best points is it's economy.
The big thing is that Arizona
has an opportunity for largely in
creasing population within the
next few years. Increased popu-
lation means wider markets for
every producer; more customers
for every firm. Opportunity is
knocking at the door. Colonization
and advertising are the next es-
sential steps in building bigger
and better Arizona. Now is the
time to start.

STATEWIDE ADVERTISING AND
COLONIZATION
(Arizona Gazettel

NHAA 1HO4lo NtbLCILCT
The Arizona Industrial Congress
with every section of the state rep
resented has again endorsed a
statewide movement for advertis-
ing the state and colonizing the
thousands of acres that are be-
ing reclaimed and developed in the
state. They have made this one
of their primary objectives during
1927.
At their meeting it was pointed
out that such campaigns can only
be successfully carried out by the
cooperation of every section of the
state, their chambers Of commerce
and all other community enter
tprises.
In the GaZettes estimation these
are two Of the greatest things that
can be accomplished in the next
two years, They have been sug-
gested by this paper and others
for several years. Concerted ac-
ton has not been possible. 1t is
high time that the state was weld
ed into one upon this plan of ad-
vertising and colonization. A
year ago F. A. Reid before the
Arizona Industrial Congress stress
ed this same point which they have
again endorsed. A part Of those
remarks were as follows:
The general public is just be-
glnlng to realize that colonization
with it's attendant advertising of
the state, has become a real neces-
sity for Arizona. Hitherto, condi-
tions have been such that the
greatest need was the restoration
of prosperity to our existing in
dustrieS. Now, however, Arizona
has returned to a sound economic
situation, and the developments of
the last few years have opened the
way for large increase in popula-
ton which is not only desirable
but necessary.
AS may be seen by any one who
takes the trouble to check the fig
ures, new land development pro-
jects within the state, under con-
struction and authorized, coupled
with the present effort toward small
Ter acreage and more intensive cul-
ovation in existing projects, pro-
vide room for more than 10000
new families on Arizona lands. We
can not use them this month, or
next but we must prepare for
next year, and the year after. Or
derly settlement is just as import
ant as orderly marketing.
Here is a point worthy of
thought: Before you can sell
community, you must sell the
state" If we attempt colonization
through our Independent and indi-
vidual localities we only delay re-
suits. In colonization and adYer-
