4-e-s-s,
especially in making available as
soon as possible an appropriation
for the compensation of the farmers
in the "non-cotton" zones Of the
state.
TO avoid a duplication Of effort
and a waste of taxpayers money,
we favor the consolidation, wher-
ever possible, of allied state agri-
cultural commissions and offices.
Copper Tariff
The Republican party of Arizona
re-affirms it's faith in the principle
of protection for American labor by
a tariff-wall reared against foreign
aggression. The Republican party
of Arizona pledges itself to move
towards the uniting with other cop
per producing states and to do all
possible to secure an adequate
tariff on copper which will protect
and maintain the higher standards
of living of Arizona citizens against
the competition of peon and slave
labor of Africa and South America
and which will assure to the people
Of this state a renewal Of the pros
perity of the copper camps which in
turn reflect themselves throughout
all of the industries of the state.
State Prison
We favor the adequate housing of
the inmates of the Arizona state
prison; the maintenance Of such vo-
cational training and industries by
the prisoners which will care for
their own needs and which will not
be in competition with free labor;
provision for segregation of young
men and first offenders from hard
ened criminals to the end that they
may be given an opportunity to
start life anew with a method Of
earning a living outside the realms
of crime. This work has already
been started under the present ad-
and we pledge our
party to the continuation of this
policy.
Schools

administration for our public school
system under a constructive, pro-
gressive policy

Highways
We condemn the policy of the ex-
Governor Hunt controlled highway
in dissipating the funds
for temporary road construction,
and for their practice in disregard
ng low bids in the purchasing of
supplies and equipment, and we
the minority Republican

ment OF our secondary roads.
