U. S. Seeks Morse Aid for Byrd.

Washington-The state department
awaiting information from Minister
Swenson at Oslo replying to his in
structions to obtain relief of Rear Ad-
1mral Richard E. Byrd and his antartic
exploration party. With no further
request for cooperation from Byrd's
hackers, officials of the department
remained confident everything pos
sfble would be done to prevent the
party from being marooned for an.
other south polar winter with food
supplies in adequate for the long
siege. Disposition OF Norwegian and
British whalers to minimize the acute
ness OF the situation did not cause the
department to alter its position that
immediate aid should be provided.

VETS BARRED BY
U.S.ATTY. GENERAL
Dryness to be Made Yardstick
for Appointment of Assis-
tants To Justice Dept.

Washington-For the first time
since the 18th amendment was pass
ed and the Volstead act became a law
more than ten years ago, belief in
prohibition has been made the yard
stick by which appointments to the
justice department will be made. At
torney General William D. Mitchell
has announced that no one who does
not believe in prohibition, or who
drinks intoxicants need hereafter as
pire to hold the Office of Assistant
United States Attorney or United
States Marshal during Herbert Hoov-
er's administration. To this end the
Attorney General discloses that his
agents have been collecting such in
formation for his Office in making
appointments.
Either in anticipation of or IN an
swer to criticism that this edict Is
tantamount to demanding religious
test from holders of public Office, the
attorney general declared he could see
no analogy between applying reli-
gious test as qualification for public
Office and the matter Of making in
quiries as to the personal habits and
the attitude toward prohibition on the
part of candidates for these posts.
Co-incident with the announcement
of Attorney General Mitchell, Senator
Borah, dyed-in-the-wood dry charges
that his office has been subject to es-
pionage by agents Of the department
of justice since his recent public
statements criticizing prohibition en-
forcement, also charging that the
agent of the department of justice
who gave him the information had
been transferred out of Washington.
Senator Borah charges that what the
justice department agent told him re-
garding Prohibition Administrator
John T. Herbert was a record of NAL
feasance and corruption in office, and
that If the facts reported to him were
true ''this man has no business in
Montana or Idaho or anywhere out
side of the penitentiary."

COY. PHILLIPS Makes
GOOD SPEECH

Governor Phillips made a good
speech Wednesday noon in Cool
idge. 1t was the kind of talk that
the business man and the working
man like to hear. In simple Ian
guage he presented facts and fig
ures showing that his administra-
ton had conducted with their well
fare at heart. The governor did not
promise to perform miracles if re-
elected. He did not abuse the in
telligence Of his listeners by stating
that vote for him meant return
to prosperity. but he did show be-
yond any question of doubt that his
being in office during the last two
years had been sincere move to-
wards keeping the costs of running
the state down, and at the same
time bringing about the completion
OF public buildings; and cOnstruc-
tion of new additions to state insti-
tutions without the willful waste of
money which characterized the po-
litical machine policy of his prede-
cessor; Governor Hunt
The Governor did dwell heav-
lily on the condition of the various
institutions that have come under
his direct administration since be-
coming chief executive of the state.
He knew that most people in Ari-
zona know what a horrible condi-
ton these institutions were in and
the great improvement that has
been made at the asylum for the in
sane; the reform school at Fort
Grant and the state prison. He
told what had been done to help the
inmates of these detention homes
and also the work that has been
accomplished at the Pioneers home
In plain language he gave the rea-
sons why he should be elected for
a second term; and wherever h.
has visited in this state the reasons
he has presented are going to in
fluence the careful voter who sees
no reason why the state should not
have a directing head who is look
ing after the dollars of the taxpay-
ers. 1t is Governor Phillips opin-
ion that in this time of business
depression an honest careful admin
istration should meet with the ap-
proval of the people of the state
Not some of the people but all the
people.
Without claiming to be a tax re-
ducer Governor Phillips by pre-
senting figures to illustrate compa-
risons actually proved that where
his opponent had continually and
forcibly told the people that he
would institute reforms that would
save them money the Hunt records
showed that the taxes constantly
scared higher and higher and the
people did not get value for the
money expended; and the Hunt ad-
ministrations with a liberal budget
of expenditures made by the legisla-
ture made the enormous return of
funds unexpended of $100. and the
ex-governor has been puzzled ever
since how that lone dollar hap
pened to get by his able band of
politicians and be refunded. Gov
ernor Phillips with the state audi
tors report to show his listeners,
brought to view the amount of
money allowed the ex-governor and
the balance Of the solitary dollar
BY comparison he showed the re.
suit Of his returns made after the
end Of the fiscal year over eleven
thousand returned to the state and
more results in improvements given
the state.

THRIVING VALLEY
INDUSTRY GROWING

Unless people know otherwise
they expect to find all the thriving
food supply factories in the cities,
because the larger centers Of popu-
lation have grown in importance
because of their being distributing
points. This may be the rule, but
there are exceptions to all rules,
and the growth and Importance of
the Casa Grande Bakery, located in
this valley, is one of these excep-
tions.
1t is with surprise that interested
visitors to this bakery learn Of the
wide distribution Of it's products.
It's business has been reaching into
new territory for years, and in do
ing so, has attracted large amount
of attention to the wonderful
growth and Importance Of this val
ley as trade center.
With its quality production this
bakery has taken high place with
its breads, pies, cakes and other
bakery products.
Ine bakery was IOunueu III 1911
by Gustave Kratzke, who with Mrs.
Kratzke, conducted a fine bakery
in Long Beach for a number OF
years before coming to the Casa
Grande Valley.
The present management took hold
in 1880
The greatest expansion to the
business of this bakery has been
made this year since it has come
under the ownership Of Alta Welch.
Alec Patterson; formerly with Bar
ker Bros Bakery Of Phoenix; and
Tom Reilly; formerly with Vance
Bros Bakery of Globe.
Under their management the bus
mess has grown to such a point
that wherever one travels in this
valley they will encounter the Casa
Grande Bakery delivery wagon on
the highways, and the bakery prod
ucts are sold in almost all stores,
and served in hotels and restau-
rants all over this section Of Ari-
Zona.
