EX LEGISLATOR
OF SAN DIEGO
LIKES DOUGLAS

William Kettner former congress-
man from the San Diego, Calf, dis
trict, accompanied by MFs. Kettner,
who spent several days in this city,
have departed for their home, filled
with enthusiasm for the southwest,
Douglas, Aqua Preta and the sur
rounding hills and valleys. Kettner
told the Dispatch in an interview that
this city had far greater possibilities
than he expected to find in any town
in ARIZONA. He said that Aqua Prieta
was the finest Mexican border town on
the entire border and he lauded the
climate, the hospitality Of the citizens
of Douglas and the beauty of the city.
Kettner is chairman Of the navy en-
tertainment committee of the San
Diego chamber Of commerce and Mrs.
Kettner is head of the girl scout move-l
ment in the San Diego district. WhlleA
here, Mr.. and Mrs. Kettner were shown
about the city and the surrounding
attractions by President Hubbell of the
chamber of commerce, who took the
visitors out to Sunset Heights east of
the city and showed them the site of
the proposed tourist hotel. Both Kett-
ner and Mrs. Kettner were enthusiastic
over the proposed project and in that
connection Kettner said that while
Douglas has no ocean view and no
ships sailing about, yet there is in the
sunsets, the magnificent distances, the
purple hills and the vast rolling
prairies something that is more at
tractive and more gripping than in the
views of the sea, that San Diego and
other coast cities boast.
The Californians advised that the
best thing that citizens of Douglas
could possibly do for the betterment
of the community would be to plant
trees. He said that such a measure
would do more to beautify the city
and to attract people to stay here than
any one thing. He heartily endorsed
the "plant a palm" slogan Of the cham
Der of commerce, said that the adver-
tising campaign was sound propo-
sition and predicted that Douglas has
all the qualifications, if it's people have
the will, to grow to any imaginable
size and wealth.
The former congressman left an
idea with the heads Of the Douglas
chamber of commerce. He suggested
that arrangements be made to secure
the services of moving picture COM
pany to film the smelters and that in
connection with pictures of the great
pots of boiling copper and the Stag
being dumped at night, some stunt be
planned that would add to the attrac-
tiveness of the film and make it sale
able throughout the country so that
/! Douglas could thereby be advertised
to millions.
