With Other
Editors
HONOR FOR EDITOR

In recognition of his outstand-
ing service to the cause of educa-
ton, large group of leading cit
liens of Birmingham recently pre-
sented a handsome loving cup to
Victor H. Hanson, editor and pub
Usher of the Birmingham News.
For several years the News has
conducted a vigorous campaign in
the interest of better educational
facilities for the youth of Alabama
and the South. AS practical
means toward the end sought Mr.
Hanson in 1921 inaugurated five
annual Birmingham News schol-
arships one to each of the higher
institution of learning in Alabama.
Each scholarship covers all nee
essary expenses of the student up
to $500 year, for four years.
Only boys and girls who would
otherwise be unable to attend col
lege are eligible for these scholar
ships. The second group of bene-
ficiaries will graduate this month.
Besides the donation of these
scholarships, at a cost of $4,000 a
year, Mr.. Hanson made an outright
gift of $4,000 to the five state nor
NAL schools of the state, $4,000 to
each, to be used as revolving
loan fund for the benefit of worthy
students. He also contributed
largely to the erection of a $780,
600 dormitory at the Woman's Col
lege, named Weeona Hanson Hall,
for Mrs. Hanson.
Many other benefactionals by Mr..
Hanson might be enumerated, but

HUNTS POLITICAL BOMBSHELL
EXPLODES

Having been in the newspaper
business in Arizona for over 10
years and after watching the poll
tical maneuvers of the various can
didates for public office, we are,
we admit, inclined to take the an
nouncement of Governor G.. w. P.
Hunt, that he would not be can
didate for reelection as state execu-
tive, with a grain of salt"
In fact we believe Mr.. Hunt will
be a candidate for reelection His
past record shows that he is a per-
petual candidate and he has reach
ed an age in life where it is hard
for him to learn new tricks.
Governor Hunt says that he will
not become a candidate. He gives
as his reason that powerful money
interests in California and Arizona"
have combined against him.
Knowing the governor as we do
we cannot believe that any money
interests" will cause him to with
draw as a possible candidate. In
fact it would cause him to make
the race, because if there is any
thing the governor likes it is a
good political fight.
Hark back to the Democratic
convention of 1922 when the Dem
ocratic party nominated Charles
Ward. In spite of the fact that
his own party, in regular conven-
ton nominated a standard bearer,
Mr.. Hunt made the race under the
Democratic banner and won de-
cisive victory. Governor Hunt is
a veteran of many political storms.
He realizes that there is no morsel
juicier than going before the rank
and file of the voters of the state
with the message that powerful
money interests" are allied against
him.
AS a matter of fact there is
something more to the announce
ment made by the governor last
week than appears on the fare sur
face. The startling news that he
will withdraw and not become a
candidate in our opinion, is his an
nouncement for office to succeed
himself.
E. E. Ellinwood may become a
candidate for the governorship.
Hundreds of Democrats in all sec
tions of Arizona are urging him
to make the race. The demand is
growing so strong that in all like
lihood Mr.. Ellinwood will not re-
fuse to become candidate. This
means a struggle, providing Mr..
Hunt is in the race. 1t will be
the greatest campaign ever waged
in the Democratic party in Arizona.
Hunt is wary. The general i'm
preston is that he will be can
didate. His opponents are active,
his friends are passive. Hunt
wants to "shock" the voters and
especially his friends into action.
Nothing will "electrify" them more
than the announcement that he will
not run. Hunt knows this. Ac-
cording to our own logic he wants
a stream of voters to appeal to
him to become a candidate. He
wants a more insistent demand and
he will get it.
When the demand is sufficiently
apparent Mr.. Hunt will become
''het up" He will get mad and
he will make the race and the
chances are that he will defeat Mr..
Ellinwood.
We may be wrong in our deduc-
tions. But we cannot imagine Mr..
Hunt refusing to make race be-
cause powerful money interests
are fighting him. There is suffici-
ent time between now and the Dem
ocratic primaries for a demand for
Mr.. Hunt to succeed himself. This
demand is imperative because it
carries with it thousands of good
workers.
What Hunt wants is action by his
friends. He will get it.-Nogales
