Shuts Itself Up
What tricks does your umbrella

1T shuts itself up and drops its

Longears. "All of a sudden, two or
three times as I hop along with my
umbrella, it plays that trick on me.

"Well, maybe it will be all right

"Ch, all right. I'll take it," said

So he took his trick umbrella and

Der boots. It was raining hard but
Uncle Wiggily didn't care. He want
ed an adventure. For a while every
thing was lovely. The umbrella
didn't do its trick and it kept the
rain Off nicely.
Then, all of a sudden ,as Uncle
Wiggily was hopping through the
woods, the umbrella snapped down.

WHERE WAS OTHER THIRD?

Imperial county has reason of a sort
to be gratified with the total vote cast
in Tuesdays election-roughly estimat-
ed as $4,000, with the total registration,
again approximately, $4,000.
A two-thirds vote is considered better
than good vote. In fact many politi-
cal observers figure anything better
than so per cent as being good.
But here was an election coming at
the end of the hottest and liveliest cam
paign the state has known in many
year It was the sole topic of conversa-
ton for at least couple of weeks before
it came time to go to the polls. The
newspapers were full of political infor-
nation, SO was the radio, and any gath
ering was sure to find politics being
brought up as a topic of discussion.
Notwithstanding all this, nearly 5000
persons in Imperial county remained
away from the polls.
Why?
1t would be interesting to know the
reasons. With excellent weather, plenty
of polling places and good roads, there
must be few who could offer natural OBJ
stacles as the reason. Doubtless some
were prevented by illness from voting.
Others, perhaps, were so fed up on pol
itics" that they deliberately refrained
from voting. Still others may have been
so uncertain as to how they should vote
and did not take the trouble to do it.
Again, the registration total is not
correct Some who are registered have
moved away, some have died. What the
percentage is, cannot be estimated.
One can strongly suspect that good
ly proportion of the 5000 were absolute
ly uninterested in the election and IN
casting their ballots. If they could be
found out it would be only justice to take
the right of franchise away from them.
Then what howl there would be.
What is necessary to get 80 per cent
vote out on election day?

DOG SAVED MASTER S LIFE

life to his dog. While picking ferns

to go home. Three hours later the
dog was back, accompanied by a

PIONEERING AGAIN

Twelve hours to travel from Los An
geles to New York, is worthy of COM
ment, and of course congratulations to
Captain Eddie Rickenbacker and his COM
panions, who did it yesterday
The flight was not stunt in any sense
of the world. 1t was bit of pioneer
ing for the future, a regular commercial
plane carrying load of passengers, be-
ing used, instead of a racing plane, es-
pecially equipped for the trip.
For the greater part of the journey
the plane travelled in what is known as
the sub-stratosphere - between $4,000
and 10000 feet - where oxygen tanks
are needed at times to permit breathing
This height gave the plane the advantage
Of tail-winds that speeded it on its way
Only one stop was made between the
two points, the plane being refueled at
Kansas City.
On previous occasions this column has
called attention to the pioneer flights of
Kelly and MacCready and other army
flyers, who were considered heroes (and
they were) for crossing the country in a
day or less. Today commercial planes
carry hundreds of passengers daily on
such trips and nothing, is thought about
it.
Captain Rickenbacker's flight un-
doubtedly taught aviation much that will
be incorporated in the planes of the fu-
ture. There will be a constant striving
to cut down the flying time and increase
the safety factor, and, presumably, to
cut the cost of operations, thereby en-
abling lower fares.
With all the improvement it has made
in the past decade, aviation is still at the
beginning. We are indeed fortunate to
be living at time when we can watch
the gradual development of mans most
modern means of transportation.

Politics And Jobs

We have never heard satisfactory answer to
the question: GLOW party politics be kept out OF
public business?" We are inclined to think there isn't
any answer The party in power, whether it be Re
publican or Democratic, naturally desires to perpet-
uate itself in power Party politics is based on organ
ization Organization, to be effective, must begin
down at the ROOTS that is to say i'll the election
districts and precincts Organization involves active
party workers. who will keep party sentiment alive
party voters get out to the polls in short who will,
as nearly as they can deliver the vote Of their pre-
cinctS
1t does no good to try to organize party from
the top 1t must be organized from the bottom This
involves great army of party workers. Few of these
are in politics for the fun Of it. They must be taken
care of. No political organization could possibly
raise funds with which to pay all Of these workers
even modest salaries Hence it is necessary for the
get Jobs in exchange for their services to the party
and so they can keep up the good work If there are
not enough jobs the public payros to take care OF
,3m AL then the party leaders have to try to get
their workers favored in filling vacancies in the bust
nesses and industries Of the district Sometimes in
dustry is quite responsive hoping to get favors in
auch matters as taxation and minor violations Of the
factory laws. or in some other way
The party that is "in' always has advantage
over the "outs' because it can reward it's workers
now, instead of with hopes and promises if, as ane
when they get back into power.
That in a practical sense is all there is to party
politics. 1t is absurd to expect any party that is "n
TO keep its workers out of public jobs to let any Of
the "outs have those jobs. If it did, it would not Ec
Sin' very long.
That is why we place no faith in any assurance
that party politics is not considered in filling public
jobs.

A Splendid Plan

The plan of C. R. Mcdowell, superintendent of
the state highway patrol to distribute state literature
to tourists who stop at border stations should meet
with the approval of all sections of Arizona Just what
it will accomplish toward keeping tourists within the
state borders another day two remains to be
but theoretically at least, it appears to be excel
lent plan. Certainly it can do no harm.
While many of the automobile tourists passing
through Arizona in hurry to reach their destin-
ation small portion Of them are willing to be dir
ected to the most scenic points along their route and
would be willing to spend another day or if they
could be convinced that their delay would prove in
terestng. And in almost every section Of Arizona
there are side trips that are of sufficient interest to
attract the most blase tourist AS an example. Oak
Greek is Of the most scenic spots in the United
Nogales international., 1934-04-28

States To see this wild section would require not
more than an extra day Of travelling for the tourist
who passes through Winslow. The Holbrook station
could tell the tourist about this scenic wonder and
direct him on the road Then there is natural bridge,
Long Valley and dozen other scenic side trips that
are worth seeing.
In the southern part Of the state there is the
Wonderland Of Rocks far from the beaten trails but
easily accessible Almost any section Of the state has
its scenic wonders that the tourist who is not in
hurry would be glad to visit.
The only danger in McDowell's plan is the ieal-
orsies that may arise, but if the highway patrolmen
cautioned to boost all sections this be avered
and the plan should prove successful. (Winslow Ma)
