Pure GOLD FOUND IN
PUEBLO CRANDE RUINS

An Exchange says, pure gold
was taken from the earth on
the outskirts of Phoenix a few
days ago. "That magic metal
upon which empires have been
builded was found in the ruins
of Pueblo Grande, occupied by
ancient Arizona Indians, just
south of Washington boulevard
near the Tovrea Packing Co.
A tiny lump of pure gold, but
little larger than a dime, was
plucked from a truck load of
caliche by Emol Cavaness, a
truck driver. Cavaness was
watching for pieces of pottery.
He uttered a sharp cry as he
saw the fash of yellow metal in
a shovelful of dirt tossed into
his truck. Three Reconstruc-
tion Finance Cooperation en-
ployes, at work at the ruins,
looked on in amazement a s he
picked the gold nugget from
the dirt. Where it came from,
how the nugget happened to be
there, or whether it is likely
any more will be found, could
not be explained by o. S. Hal
seth, city archeologist, who is
supervising the excavation.

START DRIVING NAILS

In an editorial concerning the
renovizing campaigns that have
found a welcome in a multitude
of American communities, the
Saturday Evening Post says:
When a city or a town makes
a united effort to improve the
local employment and business
situation, it also builds up it's
own confidence. There is less
uncertainty and apathy when
everybody pitches in to stimu-
late work of such useful kind.
1t is nothing but good local
business. But its greatest ben
eft will come when it is adopt
ed by practically all the cities
and towns in the country. The
slogan. of the renovize move
ment is a simple one, but for
that very reason it is capable
of having a far reaching effect.
The slogan is: "If a man drives
a nail he helps business"
There is another good slogan,
too, and that one is; EN-
ployment and investment are
cheaper than charity" One of
the main purposes of renoviz-
ing campaigns is to provide the
unemployed with productive
work, as distinct from work
which is not necessary, and is
given more or less as charity.
During the past three years
millions of structures, hotels,
warehouses, business buildings
and residences, have been al
lowed to run down. Their
owners have taken the attitude
that economy came first, that
they would spend as little as
possible until they could see
what was coming. To permit
them to go on longer without
repairs is the most prodigal
kind of luxury. True economy
is to protect the investment
they represent by making i'm
provements and repairs now,
when they can be had at rock
bottom prices.

ARIZONA BOOKLET
GIVEN APPROVAL

Approval of its first ''All Ari-

meeting of the executive board
of the Arizona State Chamber
OF Commerce yesterday. G. N.
Poston, Of Douglas, presided.
1t was decided to print 1OO.-
600 copies of the booklet in the
near future. Some of these will
be sent to the Century of prog
ress exposition at Chicago,
where they will be distributed
through various agencies, and
Others will be placed in the
hands of quarantine inspec ton
officials where all interstate
tourists must stop. Supplies
will be given to the vari.

bodies.
The latest figures show 312,-
600 automobiles are crossing
Arizona each year" Lee c.
Mccullough, secretary, said
yesterday. "If by the use of
these booklets, giving informa-
tion on the attractions and op-
portunities in every part of the

SCHOOLS OUT! GIVE
THE KIDS A. BREAK

Thousands of children all
over the country are pouring
forth from the class rooms to
spend their days out of doors
during the summer months.
It's time for motorists to be
more alert than ever, and unless
they are, many of these child
rem will be injured or even kill
ed as they traverse the streets
and highways to fields and
Fairgrounds.
The schools have done a fine
Job training youngsters to
watch out for themselves, in
consequence, when the statis-
tics of adult and child pedes-
TRAN accidents are compared,
the children are shown to be
better. They are more safety
conscious.
In spite of this good work
3,4OO boys and girls between
the ages of FIVE and fourteen
were killed last year and 152-
$50 were injured, according to
the National Bureau of Casual
ty and Surety Underwriters.
Drivers, give these young
sters the right of way; drive
slowly and cautiously through
residential districts; and watch
out for the child who darts out
from behind the parked car.
Every daylight hour should
be a safety hour now that the
schools are closed. Help to re-
.duce child fatalities, and give
the kids a break!

TAKING THE nation
into BANKRUPTCY

One of the main troubles of
the country at present is that
Legislators have been too busy
in applying the term bigger
and better" to budgets.
What should be done is to
make them smaller and better.
Since 1929 individual and cor
porate incomes have been un-
dergoing a strenuous shrinking
process. The national income
as a whole has fallen to an un-
precedented rate. Values of all
kinds have, of necessity, been
scaled down. Inflated values
are reaching a normal level. We
have approached a virtual NOR
tgage moratorium.
All of this is in the interest
of future stability. 1t has at
last been realized that the in
fated values of a few years ago
were too good to be true. That
is, it has been realized by every
one except those who make the
tax rates.
The cost of government has
constantly risen. States, mu-
inequalities and counties, especi-
ally, have added new activities
by the dozen. They have in
CURED millions of dollars of new
Indebtedness, on which interest
must be paid. A striking illus
tration of this is found in a re-
cent statement of the governor
of a Pacific Coast common
wealth, he observed that if
every activity of the state were
eliminated there would still be
not enough income to meet ex-
penses.
Higher taxes now may mean
national bankruptcy. Lower
taxes will certainly mean quick
ened recovery. The time for
talk has passed. There must
be action.

SCROLL MADE OF
MAGMA COPPER
TO WASHINGTON

Suspended from a piece aof
choice cholla cactus wood, a
sixteen by twenty four inch
scroll made of copper mined at
the Magma, will be sent to
Washington urging President
Roosevelt to use his influence
to protect the copper industry
of Arizona and the United Stat
es gainst unfair competition
with foreign markets, by mem
bers of the Phoenix chapter,
Young Democratic Club of Arl-
zona. Ribbons on the scroll
are of Arizona colors, blue and
gold.
It's text composed by Ray
Mcdonald one of the Clubs
members, addresses President
Roosevelt as follows:
Upon you the people of the
United States are depending
for leadership out of our trying
times. Upon this red metal,
"copper" depends the future of
our state of Arizona.
"The people of Arizona elect
ed the Hon. Lewis w. Douglas,
to congress to champion the
cause"
In view of the fact that our
state does not now have a re-
preventative in congress we beg
of you to use your influence to
protect the copper industry of
Arizona and the United States
against unfair competition with
foreign markets.
"Our appreciation of such an
act coul, not be expressed in
words, but as Americans and
Democrats are back of you.

SILVER REVIVAL

One of the problems confront
ing the World Economic Con-
ference, on which there seems
to be a good chance of reaching
agreement, is silver.
Every important nation has
felt the baleful effects of abnor-
mally low silver prices. 1t has
seen foreign trade shrink and
come close to passing away en-
tirely. 1t has observed the col
lapse of the purchasing power
of half the worlds people who
use silver as their money metal.
And it has discovered that gold
is incapable of carrying alone
the volume of world commerce.
There is not enough of it.
and a heavy share of what ex-
lists is held tightly by two coun-
tries.
Stabilizing silver is not neces-
sarlly bi-metallism of the old
16--to--1 brand. 1t means that
the governments of the world
will reach an agreement for
keeping the price of silver at a
more or less fixed ratio to the
price. of gold, whether that re-
latlon is 10-to-1 or 100 to-1.
1t is a proposal in the interest
of world economic stability.
Here in the United States,
there is another phase to it: II
the mining industry is given q
new lease on lease on life thru
silver resuscitation, thousands
of men will be put to work and
millions of dollars will find theil
way into the channels of indus.

CASA CRANDE Will
CELEBRATE 4TH JULY

An invitation and a challenge
has been issued to Florence and
Coolidge and other valley towns
this week by Casa Grande. The
invitation is to share in a gi-
gantic Fourth of July Fun Fes-
tival to be conducted at Noun
tain View amusement park just
north of town where a large
cottonwood grove and fine

that has been prepared. A
bathing beauty contest, in
which representatives of the
three towns will formulate the
decision, will choose the Fun

queen-crowning ceremony and
a brief patriotic program that
follows a sunset concert by the
Casa Grande Municipal band
under whose auspices the pro-
gram is prepared.
A water carnival for the
young folks will begin at 10 a.
M, and young people from all
over the valley are urged to
register for the competitor in

there will be four sets of horse
shoes and a pitching contest at
4:30; and for the women a nail

young. In the evening there
will be a magnificent fireworks
display preceded by an "Old
Timers" dance and followed by
Fourth of July Carnival dance
for all.

TIRE INDUSTRY SHOWS
STEADY IMPROVEMENT

10000 unemployed tire builders
have been put back to work
since April 1st, and for the first
time since 1929 the rubber fac
tories are working "a hours a
day, six and even seven days a
week to fill orders.
For the most part the men
being hired in are former en-
ploAees, as being skilled men,
who can get back into the full
swing of production. To date
the men laid off in 1882 and
most of those in 1881 have been
put back to work and the en-
ployment offices are now call
ing those laid off still earlier.
AS instancing how the eco
nomic cycle moves, resumption
of hiring by the rubber shops
has already been reflected in
increased buying at the stores
downtown, increased activities
at the theaters, garages, real
estate offices. and so on. The
payroll money is put in circula-
tion and the Tire Capital of
America is presenting a more
cheerful appearance than has
existed in four years.
At the Goodyear plant, larg-
est of the rubber companies,
where upwards to $500 men
have been taken back, R. s..
Wilson, vice president and sales
manager, stated that it's busi-
ness had doubled since Febru-
ary. He expressed concern
over a shortage of stocks
THE tire industry is still to
an extent seasonal" he said.
"Tires last longer in winter
driving than in summer. How
ever, the increased buying we
are now experiencing goes far
beyond that, Perhaps the gov
erment's policy of controlled
expansion has something to do
with the situation. Many peo-
pie have been driving their cars
till their tires are dangerously
thin. Realizing that they will
have to buy new ones presently
they are apparently concluding
that they had better do so at
once, since prices presumably
will never be any lower than
now."
Our price increase, of about
five percent went into effect a
month ago.
eve do know" Mr.. Wilson
continued in a recent statement
"that our dealers are not mere
ly buying for stock. 1t is the
car owners Of the country who
are responsible for this remark
able increase in buying. The
tires are gong into service on
automobiles, buses and trucks" "
despite the heavy demands
on the factory, Goodyear is still
on a six hour day basis, running
four shifts a day. AS long as
unemployment in the nation
continues to the extent that it
is, public interest demands that
the work in hand be spread
among as many persons as posi-
ble," he stated.

ARIzONIANS CELEBRATE
DEDICATION OF HIGHWAY


5000 Arizona citizens joined in
dedicatory ceremonies marking
completion of U. S. highway 81
as hard surfaced roadway
joining northern and southern
sections of the state in a new
short route. From early after
noon until late night, the throng
of merry-makers carried on un-
der a magic that seemed to
herald a new era for communi-
ties served by the Phoenix
Chandler-Tucson highway.
No one in the vast throng
celebrating at Chandler Satur-
day was more appreciative of
the significance of the occasion
than DR.. A. j. Chandler, foun-
der of the town and original
good roads booster for this
section and all of Arizona.
Twelve years ago DR.. Chandler
first had hopes of a state high
way, paved or oiled entirely,
passing through Chandler. And
Saturday all Arizona gathers
at Chandler to celebrate the
realization of that dream.
Piece by piece highway pro-
jects to the south of here have
been completed until now the
city of Chandler goes on the
highway map of the shortest
and, a 100 per cent oiled high
way route between Arizona's
two largest cities, Phoenix and
Tucson.
DR.. Chandler was marshal of
the day at the afternoon cele-
bration and was introduced
from the speakers stand at
night. The states chief ex-
ecutive paid splendid tribute to
the city's founder, DIR. Alexan-
der Chandler, as follows:
Here is a pioneer of the old
West, a man whose sturdy
qualities, foresight and deter
mination shall ever be a monu-
ment to those of us whose sons
and daughters shall carry on in
years to come"
During its comparatively
short life, Chandler has staged
many brilliant community
affairs, but it outdid itself last
Saturday.
An old-fashioned stage hold
up, enacted with the element of
surprise that left many of the
spectators gasping in the
thought of realism, was one of
many impromptu affairs. As
the mounted bandits" appear
ed on the scene, women Shrek
ed and screamed while male
members OF the audience look
ed on in stunned amazement.
An outstanding feature of
the program was the parade.

was within, a fiddler, guitar

the old overland mail stage
coach, one actually in use be-
tween Phoenix and Roosevelt

construction period. 1t now is

more automobiles. AS the
