Senator J. J. Cox
First to Announce for
Governor of State

LII HndhlIS his dnnOunceIn6nC IOr
Governor of Arizona, Senator Cox
outlines his platform briefly in the
following statements:
l am going to run for Governor of
Arizona on the Democrat ticket, be-
lieving that the things 1 stand for
are for the best interests of all of
our citizens, and will meet with the
approval of the voters of the state.
The following is my stand on some
of the vital questions affecting the
welfare of our state:
1st. am in favor of and will fight
for a just law that will protect de-
positors in banks.
End. l am in favor of and will
work for the immediate construction
of a dam in the Colorado River, at a
point in Arizona high enough up the
river so that water can be stored and
diverted to irrigate by gravity the
arid lands of our state that are suit
able for cultivation l will work for
the preservation of Arizona's rights
under the law of prior appropriation.
The revenue from the power generated
within the state must be one hundred
per cent for Arizona.
3rd. If elected Governor of the
State of Arizona, will recommend to
the legislature to enact a law that
will protect human lives at railroad
crossings.
4th. The livestock industry in this
state is, in my opinion, laboring un-
der serious handicaps, and if elected,
shall use my best efforts in it's be-
half.
5th. l am conscious of the serious
ness of the statement that I am
about to make concerning taxes, and
fully realize the task of reducing
them; but if l am elected your Gov
ernor, taxes will be reduced.
9Th. l am in favor of the enact
ment of a law providing for more
adequate and remuneratlVe marketing
conditions for the people who till the
SOIL
7th. The high standing of our edu-
cational institutions must be main
tained, and our system of state high
ways must be kept up and extended.
8th. l believe that ex-service men
as individuals, and as organizations,
should be encouraged to take a more
active part in our political and civic
affairs, and that where all other
things are equal, ex-service men
should be given a preference.
9th. l approve of high standard
of living for those who labor.

ing, scenery, construction, scene paint
ing, the building of lighting equip
ment, the use of lighting equipment,
and the construction of special prop
critics will be demonstrated on both
the miniature and the large stage of
the Shaman Players.
The interest already manifested in
Arizona in drama demands a closer
organization and cooperation among
those interested. Many states have
effected some such organization as is
is needed in Arizona. At this con-
vention some suitable organization
will be evolved to bind the dramatic
interests of the state into an effect
i've working unit.
Letters announcing the convention
are being sent out to the high schools,
Women's Clubs, Community Centers
and all individuals who are in any
way interested in drama work in their
communities or in the state, urging
them to attend the convention person
ally or to send representatives. Fur
ther announcements will be sent out
from time to time. The complete pro-
gram of the events of the convention
will be published in the near future.

CAMERON WILL
PROTECT STATE
RIVER RIGHTS

FLAGSTAFF, Sept. %. United
States Senator Ralph Fl. Cameron,
candidate for reelection, told the
people of Flagstaff last night in an
address at the court house that he
would protect Arizonas rights in the
Colorado river; continue to bl>ck the
damnable Colorado river compact and
fight the Swing-J ohnson bill for the
building of a dam at Glenn canyon.
A reception committee Of prominent
Flagstaff persosn welcomed Senator
Cameron to his former home town.
The committee escorted the senator
to his hotel upon his arrival in the
city and later to the platform at the
court house. Among those who form
ed the committee were Safe Senator
Walter Runke, William Ricklan, lum-
herman; J. S. Brown, merchant; w.
H. Conley, auto transfer man. Lewis
Benedict retired stockman; J. w.
Etter, merchant, and A. J.. LeBarron,
wool grower. State Senator Runke
presided at the meeting at the court
house. ~
Senator Cameron launched bitter
attack against the compact and the
Swing johnson bill, branding them
both as unfair to Arizona. "As long
as I am United States senator neither
CT these documentalp outrages will
pass" Senator Cameron declared. This
remark brought loud applause from
his audience. my success in gaining
the waving of the grazing fees for
Arizona livestock men meant more
than a million dollars to them" ne
said. Senator Cameron promised
when he returned to washington that
he would seek the waving of grazing
fees during the year of 1927. This
he added, would save another mil
lion dollars for the livestock man.
Senator Cameron then severely
scored the U. S. forest, reserve de-
partment and said that unfair fees
of the department during the last
ten years have reddced the cattle
raising industry in the state to one
third it's size in 1916.
The senator said he would secure a
tariff on both hides and copper go
protect the Arizona miner and the
livestock men from the cheap labor
of South America. He predicted that
unless a protectiv. tariff is placed
on foreign copper the mines IN Arf-
zona will be closed down within
seven years and the taxes of this
state will be doubled, actually bank
rupting the state.
Senator Cameron explained how the
prosperity of the Arizona farmer and
the livestock man is linked with that
of the copper mining industry and
it's workers. In the course of his
address Senator Cameron gave
brief account Of his achievements as
United States senator from Arizona
during the past six years. He de-
c.ared that he had been successful III
Bringing million OF dollars in direct
apl1 opriations to this state. He tolt-
of his success in bringing about the
passage of the San Carlos bill, which
is now building the $5,5O0,00O Cool
