DOUGLAS SEES
NEW INDUSTRY
FOR ARIZONA

PHOENIX - Lewis w. Douglas,
candidate for the Democratic nom
ination for representative in Con-
gress, forecast a new industry to
take its place beside the many
which now make Arizona famous.
In speech to a group of residents
of the Balsz district, at the Balsz
school, near Yuma, Mr.. Douglas de-
clared that nitrogen fixation. the
process of extracting nitrogen from
the air, would become not only Il
great industry; but would eventual
ly be a necessity.
Mr.. Douglas pointed out that Ar
izona had within its borders, the
making of this important industry
through the proper utilization of
the Colorado River, similar to the
development completed by the gov
ernment at Muscle Shoals, in Ala
bama.
"As a result of the development
of hydroelectric power ] believe
that nitrogen fixation and activity
incident to plants constructed for
the purpose of taking nitrogen our
of the air will constitute one of
the great future industries of the
state" he declared.
nitrogen compounds are In
creasingly in demand, both for in
| dustrial and agricultural purposes.
In this state where we raise many
! crops a year, and where fertiliza-
| ton is to become an Increasingly
important feature in the farming

BANK FAILURES In
ARIZONA

Experience is often an expensive
teacher, but her lessons are not
soon forgotten.
If you were a depositor in one of
the banks which failed under Gov
ernor Hunts banking administra-
ton you will not soon forget the
shock which came to you when
bank upon which Governor Hunts
examiner had set the seal of his ap-
proval suddenly closed it's doors.
If you happen to have lived in
Oklahoma or in the Dakotas, or in
Kansas, when banks in those states
closed their doors, and depositors
lost their money, Notwithstanding
their vaunted bank guaranty laws,
you will not have forgotten that ex-
perience.
The banking experience of the
United States and of the world has
made it clear that THERE IS NO
SUBSTITUTE FOR SAFE BANK
ING METHODS. There must be in
telligent supervision by the state,
and strict enforcement of the laws
for the protection of depositors.
Arizona's banking laws are modelled
after the laws of eastern states in
which bank failures are no longer
known. Intelligent supervision
and law enforcement have been
lacking in Arizona. That is why
we have had failures.
In his first Prescott speech Gov
ernor Hunt, in defending his bank
ing policy, said he had been "nurs-
ing sick banks" Thirteen of these
"sick banks died. Some of the re-
ceiyers will be nursing" these
dead banks for the next ten years.
if they are left free to do it. Dead
banks furnish good political jobs.
The depositor pays all the cost.
Nursing "sick banks" is simply
gambling with the depositors' mon
ey. Governor Hunt does not appear
to understand that the state bank
ing laws are for the protection OF
the depositor, and not for the pro-
lection of bank stockholders or bor-
TOW6TS. IL We may JuuSO LIS "
liefs by his acts, he sees no reason
why banks and the state banking
department should not be operated
as a part of his political machine.
Another candidate for Governor
proposes that Arizona shall try out
some scheme of bank guaranty,
such as that tried out with disas-
trous results in Oklahoma, in the
Dakotas, and other western states.
Oklahoma passed such law. The
immediate result was that scores of
inexperienced men in that state
rushed into the banking business.
One bank was to be as good as an
other, for all were supposed to be
backed by the wealth and power of
the state. Before long, failures be-
came so frequent that the guaranty
fund was wiped out. and the deficit
became so huge that the state could
not pay. The net result of this ex-
of approximately fourteen million
dollars The state could not pay,
and did not pay. The law was re-
pealed.
With childish simplicity, the
above referred to candidate for
Governor suggests that what a
great state could not do might be
done by insurance or bonding COM
panies. It is certain that no re-
sponsible company would even at
temnt if No hOndinp comnanv
could afford to make the attempt,
and certainly would not attempt it
without taking full charge of every
bank for which it wrote bond. In
surance and bonding companies are
not in the business of running
banks a thousand miles away from
