ARIZONA NOTES
Stanley 81 Tess

There can be no doubt
that the tourist business in
Arizona is still in It's in
fancy. as regards the pos
sibilities which may be de-
veloped in the future.
As a summer resort,
northern Arizona offers
many attractions. which
Arizona people themselves
should not overlook. South
ern Arizona may some day
see one hundred winter
visitors. for every one calls
on US now. during winter
months.
The main solution Of at
tracing additional tourists,
and therefore additional dol
lars would seem 20 be the
development Of further ac-
tivities and events 10 interest
the tourist. as well as the full
development of natural re-
sources and roads leading TO
them.
The average winter tour
ist does not want TO Just sit
still and enjoy the climate !;
he wants TO go places and see
things. Arizona has lots Of
places TO go. and lots Of
things to see. But still more
good roads are needed TO
make many of these sights
and places available. plus a
more boosting and advertis-
ing by the local citizens.

annually. yet out Of those
tourists, perhaps not one in
ten thousand has ever seen
or so much as heard Of
Hieroglyphic Canyon.
Should the state designate
this particular canyon as a
park. or could the Federal
Government be interested in
a national park. only a few
miles Of modern highway
would be needed to bring
tourist cars with a ten minute
walk Of the canyon. Near
the HiercFIvphic rocks is a
pool scooped out Of solid
rock. which is kept filled by
springs Of water during the
best part of the year.
There are dozens of other
snots in this vicinity which
should receive the same
treatment. that is. be desig-
mated rs parks. and have ad-
equate road built TO them.

tourists spend an average

A typical example of the
undeveloped resources for
tourist interest is a certain
canyon in the foothills of a
well-known range Of Arizona
mountains. This canyon.
known as Hieroglyphic Can
yon, has pictures on its rock
walls which were scratched
there by Arizona aboriRines
some hundred of years ago.
Only a few hundred persons
have ever seen these pic
ture rocks, and until a few
years ago they were prac-
tically unknown except to a
cattleman or two. or a few
prospectors who might have
chanced TO 20 that way.

tCitv Police Launch Drive on VandalS
Razing Vacant Homes Piece by Piece
Realty Board Demands End
of 0utrageS: Fences
Under Attack.

Countless wanton acts Of vandal-
ism on unoccupied buildings in the
city are being investigated by the
police department acting in close
cooperation with indianapolis Real
Estate Board.
For months owners Of vacant
property in all sections Of the city
have found that botn dwellings and
business buildings have been disap-
pearing piece by piece. In many
cases the wood from these buildings
was being taken by poor families for
use as fuel, but it is known that
much Of the damage was caused by
thieves who sold the lumber, plumb
ing and other fixtures to certain
second hand dealers who knew they
were receiving stolen property.
The examples of this vandalism
pictured here occurred at 1912
Yandes-st, 1892 Yandes-st, and 1917
Deloss-st.
The indianapolis Real Estate
Board has asked Chief Mike Nor
rissey for police assistance in at
tempting to check this destruction
and several detectives have been as
signed permanently to check on all
reported cases of vandalism and to
watch those districts where the stu
alton is known to be particularly
bad. In addition, police have been
asked to watch all vacant houses in
their districts and to notify the
owners when the buildings are
found to be unlocked or damaged
in any way.
Meanwhile, the city legal depart
ment is considering the ACCESSIBILITY
of proposing an ordinance which
would require all persons contem-
plating buying such articles as
plumbing fixtures or similar articles
from a second hand dealer to noti-
fly police and not to complete the
transaction for at least 48 hours.
Frank L. Moore, real estate board
executive secretary, said he believed
such an ordinance would do much
to check the evil.
