HAYDEN HAS EARNED PROMOTION

In letters to the Democratic Precinct Committee
men throughout the State Carl Hayden has formally
announced his candidacy for the United States senate
Mr.. Hayden became member of the House OF Repre-
sentatives upon the admission of Arizona into theI
Union in February 1912 and at the end of his present.
term will have served continuously in that capacity
for over fifteen years By hard work he has earned
promotion to the upper house of congress-
That the conscientious service which he has rend-
cred to the people Of his state has been satisfactory to
them is proven by the large maorites he has received
every two years He has been a faithful representa-
tive ever attentive to the needs of his constituents
not only in the committees and the floor of the
house. but before the departments of the government
His voting record on important bills is excellent.
Comping from state within which the federal
government owns more than half Of the total area,
Mr.. Hayden has consistently fought to compel con-
gress to recognize its obligation to contribute toward
development He has helped to secure the appropria
ton and expenditure of millions of dollars in Arizona
for irrigation projects, for roads and bridges and
other public improvements. His greatest and most
difficult achievement in that respect was the
through the house of representatives Of the bill for
the construction Of the Coolidge dam as part Of the
San Carlos project
Mr.. Hayden claims no superative virtues but he
does his thinking and has the power to express
his ideas in clear and forceful language He has new
er employed press agent to sound his praises to
assert undue credit for his accomplishments. His
deeds speak for themselves
It is generally conceded that the democratic par
ty will win control of the United States senate next
November. Enough of the republicans who were
swept into office by the landslide of 1920 will be
turned to private life at the end of their present s
year term to accomplish that result The election Of
one who is in accord with the majority in the next
senate will be highly advantageous to Arizona and
Mr.. Hayden's candidacy is therefore opportune.
He will be no stranger in the senate. There are
served in the house and number of his present col
leagues who are likewise seeking the same advance
ment, are certain to be elected this ial Among the
democrats who have been transferred from the house
to the senate since Mr. Hayden first elected to|
congress the following who will be glad to greet
him as personal friend Robinson and Caraway
OF Arkansas; Heflin Of Alabama; Harrison and
Stephens of Mississippi Gerry of Rhode Island; Nc
Kelar OF Tennessee; Shepherd Of Texas; Glass of
Virginia; Dill of Washington, and Nicely of West
Virginia.
Mr. Hayden viii take with him to the senate the
same industry which he has always exhibited the
same ability to defend the rights of his state the
same persuasive power to advance her best interests
all improved and perfected by wide knowledge of |
the way in which the federal government op-
crates, gained by close contact with it's various
branches. At the age Of 49, in the very prime of life
he offers talents Of the highest order for use in the
service of the people of Arizona as their United
States senator.-Phoenix Messenger.
