GOVERNOR OPENS
SPECIAL SESSION
OF LEGISLATURE

In opening the special session OF
the state legislature at Phoenix this
week, Governor B. 3. Moeur ad-
dressed the legislators as follows;
a. THE calling of this special ses-
sion was deemed advisable because
OF the urgent need of the funds in
volved for employment purposes
during these winter months, and I
feel that you, individually and COL
lcctively will lend your fest efforts
to the expeditions enactment Of this
enabling legislation.
You know as we'll as do that
Arizona has been and is now con-
fronted with the most serious unem-
ployment problem in it's history.
Thousands of our citizens are de-
pendent upon emergency relief for
the necessities of life. Funds are not
available for many needed improve
ments in state institutions. Our
Federal Government is making av-
ailable funds for these purposes on
q highly advantageous basis. Thru
the enactment of the legislation
which is being submitted to you the
several educational institutions OF
our state will be able to avail them
selves of these funds and many
needed improvements will be made
uossible. Hundreds of our citizens
will be taken off relief rolls and
restored to gainful employment.
ARIZONA is becoming more and
more dependent on the develop
ment of it's agricultural resources
and every effort must be made to
assist in the development OF the
various irrigation, drainage, flood
control and agricultural improve
ment districts, as well as electrical
and power districts. Through legis-
lation submitted to you it will be
possible for these districts to scale
down and re-finance outstanding
Indebtedness, as well as borrow
money for improvement and future
development.
1.-THE various count, es, cities
towns, villages, school districts
etc. will also be enabled to avail
themselves of these relief funds.
"At this time I wish to thank you
for the cooperation you, as members
of the Eleventh Legislature, have
extended to me and my admins
tration during these two years"

NOGALES WINS
CLOSING GAME
OF 1884 SEASON

The Nogales High School Apacfl-
es concluded their 1884 gridiron
season with ringing $50 triumph
over the Hermosillo, Sonora, eleven
Thursday morning. The victory was
the eecond of the season for the
Apaches and their first home de-
cision in two years. A very gallant
fight on the part of the much ligh-
ter and inexperienced visitors kept
the Nogales eleven from running up
the score. Immediately after the
game ended both teams journeyed
to Tucson to be guests of the Uni
versity of Arizona for the Wildcat
Texas Tech game.
The Apaches demonstrated their
superiority over their opponents by
scoring a touchdown each quarter,
but were able to make only one con-
version on tries for extra points.
Yardage gained was also dlspropor-
tionately heavy for the NogaleS
team with practically all Of the
game being played in the visitors
territory and the Apaches knocking
for scores. The Hermosillo team
made it's best showing in the third
and fourth quarters by completing
three consecutive first down to
march from deep in their own ter
rltory into the ApacheS half OF the
field on a series of line smashes
Paul Mahlow, a senior playing his
last game for N. H. S., opened the
scoring early in the first quarter by
intercepting lateral pass and
dashing twenty yards for a touch
down. The linebuck for the extra
was scored late in the second quar-
point failed. A second touchdown
ter when the Apaches marched al
most the entire length Of the field
and Captain Goodman circled his
own left end for the score. The
kick for the extra point was wide
Luis Dominguez accounted for
the next Apache tally on a thirty
yard dash over his own right tackle
by squirming through half the vis-
iting team to the goal line. The
pass for the extra point failed. Car
los Ladoza finished the series OF
touchdowns by taking Hermosillo
punt on the visitors forty-five yard
| tire Mexican eleven for a touch
line and dashing through the er-
down. Goodmans try for the extra
point via the drop kick route was
good.
All five of the boys playing their
last games for N. H S. in this con-
test looked very good. Mahlow, Do
minguez, and Goodman finished up
with a touchdown apiece to their
credit. Marsden Coughanour did
some nice work on end runs and
narrowly missed talNes on several
occasions. Robert Gonzales at cen
ter played his usual dependable
game where he has had little
chance to shine out as star Con-
zales' work in the forewall has been
one of the mainstayS of the team
and he has filled the position al
most every minute of playing time
during the season None Of the vis-
itors were particularly outstanding
but every player put up game
fight against heavier and more
experienced man that he faced.

FOLKS GOING TO HEAR A LOT
ABOUT ECCLES, NEW CHIEF OF
THE FEDERAL RESERVE BOARD
Mariner Stoddard Eccles Of Utah Can Be Counted
On To play Ball" With Treasury Department
All The Time; Has Banking Record

The highest Importance. for it is
through the Federal Reserve Banks
hat all of the funds must be raised
for the Governments spending pro-
ram = and there is going to be
some more.
Under Governor Eccles the Fed
aral Reserve system will function
as a central bank cooperating with
the Government and under COM
plete Government supervision. And
if anybody asks you who thought
of that idea, tell 'em it's one of
Eccles' own And that is only one
of the financial and economic ideas
which have originated with this
slender, dark-eyed, 44-year-old
banker from Utah. He has been
around Washington only since the
beginning of the year, but he has
been the Administrators chief ad-
wiser on banking and credit policies
from the moment of his arrival.
His Banking Record
Born in Utah, where his father,
a Scotch immigrant, had settled,
Eccles was brought up in the Nor
mon church and when he was 20
he was sent to Europe as a Nor
mon missionary. It is not disclosed
how many converts he made, but
he brought back wife, whom he
found in his fathers native Scot
land Then he got job in bank,
and before long he owned a bank,
then another and another. BY the
end OF 1882 he. controlled two big
banking institutions, one Of them
with sixteen branches and the other
with seven. Every one of them in
cidentally, was sound as nut when
the banking crisis occurred.
Mr.. Eccles wanted to find out
what was the matter with the ma
TONS economic system Shortly af-
ter the depression began he made
it his business to collect everything
that anyone else had written about
it and to talk to as many men as
he could find who had opinions.
Out of all of these contacts he
evolved q financial program for the
United States, which he reduced to
paper He was sure it would work,
but not being politician, not even
a Democrat, he didn't have much
expectation of getting anybody in
the Roosevelt Administration to
even look at his plan
Eccles then happened to meet
Stuart Chase, who had been work
ing out some ideas for the New
Deal himself. He and Chase hit it
off, and Chase suggested that Ec-
cles get in touch with a Columbia
Professor named Rexford Guy Tug
we'll, who was close to the Presi-
! dent-elect Since he had to come
east to answer some questions to
which the Senate Banking COMMIT
tee wanted answers, and which he
answered by giving the committee
! a copy of his document, he stopped
/ off in New York and called up Pro-
fessor Tugwell. The two men spent
a few hours together, then Eccles
hoped plane and flew back to
Utah. The bank holidays were be-
ginning, and he couldn't stay East
to attend the Inauguration Of Pre-
sident Roosevelt.
Invited To Washington
! Along in October last year Tug
we'll invited him to come to Wash
