LEGISLATURE IS
OPENED By HUNT
IN SWAN SONG

PHOENIX, Jan. 10.-(P1-In what he
characterized as his 'swan song" Gov
ernor Hunt today rendered the olive
branch to the state legislature, and
Mulford Winsor of Yuma, as chairman
Of the joint session to which the gov
ernor delivered his message, received
the symbol of peace and good will joy
fully.
Perhaps never before has the Ari-
zona Legislature convened in regular
session with such a dominant note of
harmony lowering over it, giving prom
Use of cooperation in the enactment of
constructive legislation.
"17his is my swan song" the COVER
nor said from the speakers rostrum
in the house chamber, as he indulged
in a few PREDATORY remarks to his
message. And President Winsor of
the senate, in a glowing response to
the governors offer of amity, picked
up the phrase and made its meaning
unmstakable - Governor Hunts sixth
term is his last term.
The spirit of Cancellation was even
further emphasized by A. NJ. Crawford,
of Yavapai county, today re elected
speaker of the house. 81 deny he
said, "the implication that the house
is unwilling to do its part in advanc-
ing the states best interest. What
ever the governor desires in the way
of legislation it will be my pleasure
to support. If | consider that his de-
sire is right and proper, but [ shall
be just as free to oppose any measure
suggested by him if it is one to
which I canot honestly subscribe
Apropos of much free talk about the
legislative chambers during the spe-
cial session, that certain "admnistra-
tion" measures had been introduced
by various members of the lower house
in collusion with the governors office,
the message delivered by Governor
Hunt made reference to the fact that
he had designated no spokesman on
the floor of the legislature
II trust some of the practices which
have prevailed in previous sessions
will not again be evident in the eighth
legislature the message concluded.
"Such tactics bode no good for the
state of Arizona"
Senator Fred Sutter, Cochise county,
chairman of the senate committee on
highways and bridges and of the joint
committee to receive the state high
way departments financial report for
the past four years, in statement to
the press dwelt on the cooperation
which should be afforded the legisla-
ture by the governor and the governor
by the legislature.
1--WE want the governor to feel Free
he said, "to come on the floor; and to
put it flatly, we want to feel free, as
members of the legislature to go into
the governors office, put our feet on
the table and talk things over, indi-
vdually and collectively"
Three hours later in the house cham
Der, Governor Hunt was saying: "I
stand ready to cooperate with you and
to give every assistance which lies
within my power to facilitate the pros
ecution of the business of the state on
| Legislative problems. My office is open
to the members of the Legislature
singly or collectivei9 Tor the discus
sion of any state matter"

HELD

MARINES WAIT

WASHINGTON, Jan. 10,
(AP)-Further precaution-
ary moves by the Wash
ington government to in
sure readiness Of its naval
forces to protect American
lives in China, should the
need arise, were disclosed
today at the navy depart
ment.
The cruiser Huron re-

Sound navy yard to be re-
commissioned, was held at
Guam in readiness to pick
up the marine detachment

should it be called for by
Williams on his arrival in
Chinese waters, from Ma
Mia.
1t was reiterated by Secretary Will
bur and Major General Lejeune, COM
mandant of the marine corps, that the
Huron was diverted purely as a pre-
measure on the initiative of
the navy department. This was con-
firmed at the state department, where
it was said that no request for naval
forces had been received from the
American consul at Shanghai, the
point where attention of various pow
ers is now centered due to the size of
the foreign population there and the
fears expressed in press dispatches
that the anti-foreign demonstrations,
which forced the virtual evacuation of
the British concession att Hankow,
might spread to Shanghai

Diego, Calf, a marine battalion avail
able for instant movement in any direc-
tion have former another element of
the precautionary measures taken by
the navy department. 1t was empha-
Sized however, that mobilization of
the battalion was ordered for the pur-
pose of having ready a force for quick
transportation, either to Nicaragua,
Guam or direct to China, if such a
became necessary.

PROTECT J. 5.
HIS MESSAGE
TO CONGRESS

WASHINGTON, Jan. 10
(AP)-In a special message
to congress today, Presi-
dent Coolidge minced no
words in telling where he
stands on the Nicaraguan
crisis.
Laying bare the facts
which underlie the govern
ment's policy, the president
told house and senate that
he was acting not only to
preserve American live S
and property, but to protect
the interests Of this gov
ernnent itself, whether as
sailed by internal strife or
outside interference"
And he made it plain that
the government is con-
vinced the "outside inter
ference comes from Mex
ico."
The president detailed how the
Sacasa faction, seeking to upset the
Diaz government, which has been
recognized and supported by the
United States, has been armed by
munitions from Mexico, some Of
which bears evidence of having come
from that Mexican government itself,
and gave notice that he intended to
use all his power 20 protect all
American interests"
Throughout his message, which was
sent to the capitol Ly messenger and
read by clerks in both no Uses, tho
president emphasized the inclusivene ess
of his policy to protect all An;eri-
can interests; Americans, with their
lives and property; the rights of the
United States government in it's
treaties providing for a Nicaraguan
canal route; the rights to naval
base in, the Bay Of Fonseca and the
stability of Central America all are
Taking direct issue with Chairman
Borah of the senate foreign relations
committee, who contends the Sacasa
group is the legitimate constitutional
government of Nicaragua if there be
any, the president detailed the events
which led to the recognition of
President Diaz, to show why the
United States considers the constitu-
tfonal government of Nicaragua.
The reaction in congress was one
of grave attention. In the house,
republicans rose and applauded and
there was some applause on the
democratic side. The more sedate
senate listened in silence and it fell
20 the lot of Senator Borah as COM
mittee chairman to move for the
printing of the message as a public
document. Mr.. Borah had no com
ment before the foreign relations
committee Wednesday,.
II intend to discuss the situation, "
Senator Borah said
Senator Bingham, republican, Con-
necticut, however, made a speech in
reply to Senator Wheeler, democrat,
Montana, who last week assasled the
administration policy as one of "in-
tervention." Senator Bingham de-
clared the material for Senator

sive character Of the rally in Thurs

that strong support was ready to

General Motors furnished powerful

erted powerful influence in keeping
