tanning the equalization fee principle

any source, even an intimation that

lieves tlGat there is remote chance of
passing the measure over veto, and
to some of us, at least, it seems worse
than childish to trifle with this most,
serious interest as it now appears to-
be the purpose to Go.
Differs ences between the executive
and legislative branches over the ques-
ton of local participation in future
flood control work have placed that

SENIOR FCLLIES
WILL CONTRIBUTE
TO STADIUM FUND

TUCSON, March with the
opening of a campus drive to pro-
cure the quota of $4,000 sought
from students in the alumni asso-
ciation's campaign to secure a new
stadium and athletic unit for the
University of Arizona, the announce
ment has been made by the govern
ing board OF the Senior Follies, an
inual muLcal revue of the univer-
sity, that all profits from its Tue
son, Bisbee and Phoenix showine.j
will be turned over to the stadium
fund.
The announcement, made through
Jimmy MacDougal, student manager
Iof the campus campaign, follows
recent decision of the university
Ifraternities to cancel one OF the
three dances which they are allow
ed to have during the second Sc
mester, and to turn over the eX-
pens,e money to swell The stadium
fund.
"In spite. of the fact that most
college students have incomes which
little more than meet their running
Iexpenses,' MacDougal said in re-
gard to the campus campaign, 1--WE
lfeel that it is only fair that we
IshouId contribute in proportion to
the sums being sought from the
Ialumni and other sources.
"a certain amount of cutting in
Ito monthly allowances will have to
be made by students who sign the
Ipledge cards, the campus plan of
'allowing payments to be made on
contributions over number of
months being similar to that used
among the members Of the univer-
sitys alumni. The members, of the
student body have had from one to
four years Of acquaintance with the
universitys decrepit athletic equip
ment, however, and are able to APP
preciate better than any one else
the crying need for E1w facilities"
Little trouble in securing the
$4,000 quota was anticipated by
Louis Slonaker, graduate MANAGE
and alumni secretary. before leay-
ing to open the campaign in the
southern part of the state last week
end, MacDougal e1aid, Slonaker hay-
inf reported that many students
voluntarily signed pledge cards be-
fore the campus drive was begun.

PARTY LEADERS
Then Tilson turned to the religious
IuestiOn. with this observation,
CONTINUED From Page One)

Then Tilson turned to the religious
question, with this observation.
'It is contended by many that if
Governor Smith is nomina ted at HouS
ton q religious issue will enter into
the campaign which is, of course, the
most difficult and disturbing Of all
issues to deal with Doubtless there
are bigots among both Catholics and
protestantS whose political Judgment
might be warped by the fact that a
candidate processes one religion rather
than another, but it is hard to believe
that with all our professions Of re-
ligiouS liberty and tolerance the Amer
lean people will permit such an issue
to be controlling on either side
In the end, Mr. Tilson predicted, the
democrats will fall back on their ad-
vocacy of destroying the protective
tariff and lowering duties to IL tariff
r-revenue-only basis"
The American people, he added, "are
rot ready to turn their backs upon the
principle Of protection to American in
duStry and labor, nor are they ready,
in the light of recent past experience,
to again entrust the reins of govern
ment to democratic control
Garrett, in sizing up the present
session OF congress, said that the main
problems confronting it have been tax
reduction, farm relief, flood control
and disposition of Muscle Shoals,
1--WE have been in session now three
months he said, "and it cannot be
gid that any proposal as to any one
of these matters has reached stage
which encourages the slightest hope of
final enactment
The democratic floor leader declared
it was .pparent that the tax bill had
been "shelved" and predicted the house
agriculture committee would report q
bill that even if passed would receive
veto
THE republican presidential politics
has entered as a chief factor into the
consideration of this question" Garrett
went on, "is so manifest as to admit Of
no doubt

ERICKSON TAKES
THIRD DAY LEAD
IN BUNION RACE

VICTORVILLE, Cal, March l49--
Over a tortuouS mountain road and
through the desert to this little min
ing town a band of hardy foot racers
threaded its way today on the third
lap of the 3.400 mile coast to coast
marathon.
at the head of the plodding horde
paced a slight Finnish runner, Nestor
Erickson, OF New York CITY, who
negotiated the asa mile stretch
from Bloomington, Cal, through the
San Bernardino mountain range and
over several miles of desert going,
in hours, AZ minutes and 20 seconds.
The fleet Finn had gone into the
lead to take the place Of Willie
Kolehnlainen, a countryman, who had
led through the tirst two laps.
Barely had Erickson reached his
cot at the control station here when
Nicholas Guamawahu, Hopi Indian
from Oraibi, Ariz., plodded in TO
take first place in total elapsed time
since the race got under way last
Sunday at Los Angeles. His time
for today, 6 hours, SIS minutes,
brought to Is hours 35 minutes and
is seconds his time to cover the 97.I
miles from Los Angeles Erickson's
computed time for the three laps
is 13 hours, 80 minutes and 20 sec

total elapsed time.
A A year old man shared honors
with the two leaders. He is Arthur
Newton, Of London, whose uncaanging
stride carried him to third place iii
today's lap and into fifth position in
total elapsed time. Yesterday Newton
ended the day in 18th place. His
time of hours, 10 minutes and 30
seconds today gave him total of
IA hours, Is minutes and 80 seconds.
Another fleet Finn, Olli Wantinen,
even Slighter than Erickson, bore up
under the arduous grind today in
an astonishing manner, to climb into
third place in total time for the race
to date. Wantinen, weighing but 96

under the law, if he carries any con-
gressional districts in the April "a
primary, he will get the support at
Kansas City of those delegates.
In Indiana, however, the instructions
of the entire delegation depend on the
statewide result in the primary. Who
ever gets a majority viii receive the
votes OF all the states delegates until
he releases them. In the event there
are more than two candidates in the
presidential primary and no candidate
receives a majority, the republican
state convention later not only would
select the delegates but would instruct
them.
Admittedly one of the complications
in the situation from the Hoover view
point, is the belief on the part of his
managers that if he Went into the
primaries, Frank o. Lowden also would
enter, increasing the probably that no
candidate would receive a majority.

HOOVER AGAINST
CONTINUED from Page Orlel

The middleweSt is the debatable
ground as far as the Hoover candi-
dacy is concerned, but Hoover un-
doubtedly II S more strength in that
section of the country than is gener-
ally credited him, according to Requa.
In his talks with New York republi-
can leaders, Requa said that he was
told Hoover has an excellent chance
of getting 40 of the 81 delegates in
the uninStructed delegation from that
S; te. In Pennsylvania, Requa called
attention to the statement of w. l..
Mellon, state republican chieftain and
nephew of Secretary Mellon, that
Hoover is the strongest candidate at
the present time.
"The favorite-son program received
bad setback in M ,ssachusetts where
Governor Fuller has declared Tor
Hoover and has declined to be named
as the favorite-son choice of that
state" Requa pointed out.
New England favors Hoover and the
first of the primaries to be held will
show New Hsmpshire electing a
Hoover delegation, Requa declared.
James r. Garfield of Ohio, who has
been named the second choice of the
Hoover delegates now battling with
Senator Willis for the delegation from
the Buckeye state, told Requa that
there is strong possibility that
Hoover will sweep the state 1T the
April primary and an excellent chance
of getting better than one-half OF the
Ohio delegates.
Requa found Colorado soldly be-
hind Hoover and in Utah there is an
unanimous support for Hoover. He
said that Hoover will go into the con-
vention rs the second choice OF a
number of q vorite-son delegations.
I'm the south Hoover is strong every
where and there is every reason to
believe that should the republicans
nominate him, he will break into the
heretofore democratic solid south, !"
Requa predicted.
Requa said that the Hoover man
ayers at washington are well salts
fled with the Sitr' tion and that they
have every reason to believe that the
Hoover sentiment will continue 10
grow until it will force the party lead
erS who are not now out for Hoover
to declare for him.
After all, they want to win" ReQua
declared.
Vice President Dawes, although be-
ing kept in the background at present,
may prove a dangerous contender for
the party nomination, according to
Reuua. Next to Hoover, Dawes ap-
pears to be the next in line in point
of probable strength. Lowden, Requa
feels, is merely a stalking horse for
Dawes.
Reuua said that there re evidences
of a weakening OF the Al Smith move
ment in the southern and eastern
states The anti-Smith democrats are
/ resorting TO the favorite-son dodge to
hold Smith in check. Requa found a
growing feeling that Smith will not be
nominated.

BILL PRIMARILY
POWER MEASURE

WASHINGTON, March (H)-
Charging that the primary purpose
of the proposed Boulder dam de-
velopment under the SwinC.Johnson
bill is the generation of electric
power and not to afford flood pro-
lection to the Imperial valley, Rep
resentative Leatherwood, republican.
Utah, today addressed a letter to
members of the house outlining his
position on the proposed legislation.
The letter replied categoricaIly to a
recent letter of the California dele
cation.
Mr.. Leatherwood said the flood
danger was not a threat to human
life or of immediate damage to
property, but one of gradual mum
Cation which could be stopped with :
out extensive damage at any time
within the first few months of it's
occurrence.
He said the proposed high dam
at Boulder canyon was neither the
best nor the most economical rem
edy for the menace. Under the bill.
he said, it il impossible to protect
the government against loss, add
ing that the measure embodies a
plan supported only by the reclama-
tion service and opposed and CON
demned by engineers of other gov
ernment departments.
The construction of the all-Amer-
ican canal, he charged, will not pro-
tect American citizens from the use
of additional water on Mexican land,
but the dam at Boulder canyon
would make more water available
for Mexican lands and would great

miles today in hours, l minutes
and 10 seconds, giving him total
time OF 13 hours, 40 minutes and 2
seconds. Behind him strobe Ed
Gardner, negro hoofer of Seattle,
Wash, who made the trip in 7 hours,
"a minutes and 40 seconds. Gardner
ranked fourth in elapsed time, it
being IA hours, 2 minutes and 26
seconds.
The trail over which the marathon
ers passed today and which leads to
New York city where $48500 in prize
money awaits, was the most difficult
so far encountered Twenty miles OF
upgrade, passing the runners through
the San Bernardino range was the
stretch that taxed human endurance
to the utmost. Only Newton kept up
his jog through CaJon pass. Out Of
the mountains from an altitude of
$500 feet the continental trekkers
struggled across the edge of the
Mojave desert. Strong winds checked
the runners across the desert stretch
At times throughout the Gay Erick-
son and Quamawahu batiled neck and
neck for first position. Twice near
the mountain summit the 27 year old
Indian passed his rival, only to fall
behind through trouble with his shoes.
He changed once to a new pair OF
feathers and lost the lead He sped
to the front again. and seemingly was
off to great finish when the new
shoes pinched, and he was forced to
halt. Erickson shot into the honor
position and kept it for the few odd
miles remaining.
The gruelling grind apparently had
little effect on the ieaGing trio
Erickson said he felt better after
today'S stretch than he did yesterday
Quamawahu. whose tribal nam c
means standing Bear walked or
stood around the finish line for a
short time after the race, while New
ton visited about town.
The day was a tragic one for
Kolehmainen, who HAD Sc; ior the
rest of the pack a terrific pace during
the first two laps. He fell far behind
today because OF an injury to leg
muscle. He finished the days run
in 29th place, with a ;ime OF .
hours, II minutes and 80 seconds.
His total time was Is hours, . min
utes and 80 seconds. Yesterday he
had nearly an hour advantage over
his nearest rival. The great Finn
was running even with Erickson as
they started on the 20 mile up grade.
Suddenly his face twinged with pain
He tried valiantly but vainly to
maintain the pace, but the injury
proved too severe. He walked in
slowly the rest of the way. AS soon
as he reached the control point here
his trainers gave him needed medical
attention. Hugo Quist, his manager.
said the Finn would be in the race
again tomorrow, but at reduced
speed.
Sam Richman, of New York city,
was one of the late casualties. Three
miles from here he wrencned an
ankle and limped and hoped in the
rest CT the way. He was in seventh
place in total elapsed time, but paced
18th in the days run.
The ancient of the marathon, 63
year old Charles Hart, OF Scutllanp-
ton, England, plodded through today's
lap with smile On his race and an
unfaltering jog trot. "A tremendous
ovation from the populace greeted
him when he crossed the timing
mark. His time was 10 hours, l
