Arizona's S Progress In 1927
A Review By Arizona Industrial Congress

Every year is a year of pro-
gress for Arizona. Each succeed
ing period sees new headway in
the building of a Greater Ari-
zona," and in many respects the
progress made in 1927 has reach
ed new heights, Notwithstanding
the fact that the year has had
unfavorable as we'll as favorable
influences.
Arizona is a big state, and a
state of varied interests. Unless
we get far enough away from our
own circles to see the state as a
whole we often overlook the real
development that is going for
ward. But when we do look over
Arizona as a whole we see the
following high spots in 1928 re-
cord:
Conditions in the agricultural
industry have improved materially
over last year, partly because of
better returns for cotton. partly
because of greater diversification
of crops.
The livestock industry has
"come back", reaching the best
condition since the "boom" days,
and giving stockmen an opportuni'
ty to get a fresh start after their
j, long period of liquidation and
readjustment.
The mining industry has beer
able to maintain operations des-
pite unsatisfactory market condi-
tions, and has continued much
new development.
Building construction in larger
cities Of the state has broken al
records.
Tourist travel has shown an in.
crease over previous years, arc
has been largely responsible fol
the greatest hotel-building pro
gram in the states history.
One large new irrigation pro
Jcct has been finished and severa
Others have been begun, assuring
extensive new land development.

growth, and has been material!

the development program contem-
plated for the next few months.
The cost of this improvement is
to be assessed against the proper
ty located in the districts to be
directly benefited therefrom.
The water system improvements
and extensions will include such
renewals as may be found neces-
sary, including new lead or cast
iron service connections to the
property served: lowering of now
existing pipe lines on certain
streets so as not to interfere with
the paving program; extending
ard enlarging water mains to
certain streets covering of the
present city reservoirs so as to
render them vermin proof and
duet proof.
LARGE TOURIST HOTEL
Construction work will be COM
rIoted in February on the new
$3.50 900 tourist hotel, "The Es-

TOURIST HOTELS

Arizona's growing popularity
as a tourist center undoubtedly
has became an important factor
in the states development, as the
tourist business has become a
"cash or p" affecting all citizens
of the stnte indirecly. Tourist
travel both to Arizona and
through Arizona has been very
good this year, and has been res
ponsib'e to a great evtent for
unprecedented activity in hotel
constr lction. At present a new
seven-story hotel is nearing COM
pletiqn ir Phoenix and another,
of fifteen stories, is under con-
ctruction; Tucson is completing
plans for finishing and opening
its new $500.000 tourist hotel:
Flag taft and Prescott have each

built hotels during the year; Mesa
is now completing 100000
community-built hotel; Nogales
and Douglas have 100000 COM
munity-built hotels under con-
struction; and the Union Pacific
system is building a $750,000
tourist hotel on the North Rim
Of the Grand Caryon. Besides
these hotels, a number of new

100000 BONDS


Bonds in the sum of $4,000
were voted by the townspeople
early in November as the nucleus
for the work.
While the bond issues provided
the funds for the city's share in
the monster undertaking, the bal
lot likewise carried proposal for
pretentious paving program
which indirectly authorized the
city to proceed with its plans.
Three distinct issues were in
cluded in the bond proposal. The
first provided $4,000 for a mod
ern water system, the rehabilita-
ton of present mains and the con-
struction of other mains; $3.50, 200
for paving and drainage and
$40, 900 for sewage disposal.
The $150,000 voted for paving
md drainage will represent merely
the city's share in the program,
such as paving all intersections
and in front of schools and other
Tuh]ic buildings. Property owners
themselves will carry the burden
for La-ring in front of their pre-
misos.
LARGE PAVING PROGRAM
The paving program is perhaps
the largest ever undertaken by
any Arizona city at one time. 1t
provides indirectly for the con-
struction of approximately five
miles of paved streets.
All of the. main thoroughfares
of the city are to be paved under
this plan as we'll as the principal
streets in the residential sections.
Engineering plans for this work
are now practically complete and
the first job to be undertaken will
be the paving of Morley avenue.
Cnly the completion of minor de-
tails and the receipt Of funds
from the bond issue are awaited
to start actual work.

Motorists who sought a glimpse
OF Indy or his mother-the Cool

Traffic policemen were stationed a,

one Of the busiest traffic sections of
the city.
Some OF the more persistent
pleaded that they lived within the
restricted area, but they were forced
to produce Identification or allow a
policeman to ride on the running
board until they reached their
homes.
The gathering about the circle
was constant throughout the day
and sent up cries of "Lindy!
Lindyr' at almost regular intervals.

the curtains of second-story win
