Think of This!

~ ANADA officially asks Uncle Sam to "do some
thing, please" about smuggling of very bad
- American liquor across the line into dry Can
adam provinces. The busy and ingenious booteggng
underworld Of this country manufactures very bad
liquor in the United Sates-or smugges hastily made
whskey out of wet Canadian provinces Then this stuff
by the barrel by the truck by the shipload is moved
into Canada.
Whoever thought Of this in reflecng on how the in
yentiye American mind would work under prohibition?

1 once saw, dotting an open hill
side near the coast at Monterey, a
dozen grotesqusly warped and lonely
pines that seemed to bend eternally
before invisible gales.
Their trunks strained away from
the sea, their branches flaring in
land like green vind-blown candle
flames.
From the first shoot to the gnarled
old tree these pines OF Monterey knew
only a wind that blew them in
land.
For the landward breezes generated
on the blue reaches of the Pacific at
this point blow changelessly from the
same direction.

Program Complex

|" HE announcement Of the Soviet government that
it will make large extension of the Trans
- Siberian Railroad is interesting.
The project is to construct branches to the grain
fields the coal fields the gold fields The present boss
of Russia Stain, has been giving special attention to
Asiac concerns of Russia. The development of this
road is inevitable But when? Precisely the same pro-
gram laid down by the cars government. 1t was
not carried out. Why?
For lack of capital The Russian mind likes to make
programs Lenin himself enjoyed his dreams of the
identification of the whole country. Tsurupa and the
other agricultural experts prove to you in hour
that easy todouble the agricultural yield by merely
teaching the peasants to plant at the right depth.
But only a fraction of Russian programs come to
pass. Some time the psychology of the West will pene
rate the Russians and then there will be change. But
for long time development will be slow.

ences and stand together FOR the good
of the party.
The credentials committee, consist
ing of f.. A. woodward, ella county;
Henry sullivan Of Mar1copa county
A. c. Mcclure of Yuma county, passed
recess and reported 81 PROBES and 35
members present, making a total rep
resentation of 1922.
Corbett presented his resignation as
the first order of business when tbs
committee meeting opened. f. A. Ma
than of Tucson made a short talk at
this point in the meeting in which he
urged that the committee refuse to
accept the resignation of the chair
man and suggesting that a commit
tee be appointed to set up headquar-
ters in Phoenix for carrying on the
campaign during the summer months
He also suggested that the candidates
for state office be allowed to sit with
this committee and choose a chairman
to succeed CorDett.
The resignation was tabled upon mo-
stfon by Baumert by the unanimous
vote of the committee and motion
was made that the chairman of the
IA county committees and the chair
man and secretary of the state com
mittee form the committee which is
to seek candidates for all state offices
and set up machinery for conducting
che campaign. This motion passed
with the provision that the chairman
call a meeting of the committee for the
consideration of the slate and cam
paign plans at the earliest moment
that the committee is ready to report.
!, The resolution con6emring the prac-
tice Of registering as members OF the
opposition party was offered by Fritz
Holmquist of Maricopa county and
passed unanimously, several members
making short talks before the vote was
taken
Baumert made a motion that Henry
Sullivan of Maricopa county be elect
ed vice secretary in order to assist
William w. Pickerell, secretary in
clerical work of his office. This mo-
tion was vigorously opposed by James
r. Dunseath of Tucson until Pickerell
made a statement that it would be i'm
possible for him to devote his whole
time to the work. during the campaign.
The motion was passed without dis
senting voice, Whereupon Sullivan
suggested that Dunseath also be given
a. like position, which was declined by
Dunseath.

Marvin Strikes Back At
All Of His Accusers
(By plspateh 4. Z. VIC

TUCSON, June 5.-After hearing
himself alternately attacked and de-
Tended during a series Of hearings
covering a total of eight days, DR..
Cloyd Heck Marvin, president of the
University of Arizona, struck back at
his accusers4 today.
In a statement consuming several
hours, made before the regents, the
university head took up in great de-
tail the various charges that had
been made against him. The subjects
ranged from mill points for the new.
gymnasium to the proper qualifica-
.tions for teachers and back again to
the difference between welding and
brazing EA&
DR.. Marvin centered his attacks
upon DR. Frank c. Lockwood dean of
the college Of letters, arts and sci.
ences, who has been one of the two
most active men in conducting the
prosecution" against him.
AssaiIs Dean Lockwood.
He repeatedly charged the academic
dean with "distorting" statements and
conversations, and assailed his adver-
sary's type of mind for making GER
tain accusations against MIN.
He declared that he had found that
he was unable to get DR.. Lockwood's
cooperation" after the first six or
even three months that he had taken
over the presidency of the university,
that he had suggested the deans res
ignation, but had later offered to
wipe the slate clean"
The board of regents adjourned at
8 O'Clock tonight, Subject to the call
of the chair" according to Everett L.
EIlinwood president of the board,
who added that he did not know
when that call would be.
In view of the fact that Governor
George W.T.. Hunt, who has been un
able, because of other official busi-
ness5Hto attend the latter part of the
series Of sessions, he has, requested
that no decision be reached without
his being given the opportunity to
study the transcript 1t is expected }
that several weeks will. elapse before
a decision is; reached by the regents
A number of rebuttal witnesses for
the prosecution, including DR.. Locks
wood, appeared before the regents
after Dr. Marvin had completed his
personal reply to his critics.

VOTE ON MONDAY

DES MONIES, Iowa, June 5.-Can-
dfdates in the Iowa primary had
rested their campaigns tonight and
Monday the voters will express their
views upon" numerous national issues
involved in the republican senatorial
battle and at least one important
state issue.
In the senatorial contest Senator
Albert b. Cummins, Colonel Smith w.
Brookhart and Howard Clark have
made extensive campaigns, either per-
sonalIy or through statewide or
ganizations raising the issues of farm
relief farm credits, the tariff, trans
portation costs and the world court

subject involved in the state con-
tests

instatement in the senate from which
he was ousted two months ago, in
favor of Iowa's new democratic SEN
ator, Daniel Steck.
Senator Cummins has refused to
leave his duties in Washington to
campaign in the state, contenting
himself with one speech last night by
long distance telephone and radio
from the capital. In that he pledged
his continued effort on behalf of the
farmers and the speech was hailed
by his supporters here as sufficient
assurance for the overwhelming farm

ors was landed on the Coronado Is
land to arrest the rum runners who
were caching the liquor that already
had been transported ashore.
For the last year Canadian liquor
ships have played hide and seek with
the American coast guard cutters
Tamaroa and Vaughan.
When these rum laden boats were
sighted off the California coast by
the Vaughan or Tamaroa, they head
ed southwark into Mexican water
where they dropped anchor until the
prohibition cutters ran out of pro-
visions and fuel and were forced to
return to San Diego. No sooner
were the Tamaroa or Vaughan out of
sight than the rum boats up anchored
and returned to their rendezvous off
the Cortez banks or in the vicinity
of st. Nicholas Island.
Much interest is being manifested
here in what action the Canadian
may take regarding the
seizure made by the Tecate.
