Dancing Cops

Rehearsing clog steps on the Sec
ond floor of the police station at
Lynn, Mass, in preparation for
their annual minstrel show, a score
of bluecoats abruptly halted their
terpsichorean endeavors. "Guests"
in the first floor cells complained
of tho noise.

gathered to see the play. And il
seemed there wouldn't be any play
unless Shute was in the midst of it.
1t has since been revealed that
Shute was in favor of dropping the
protest and withdrawing in the in
terests of diplomacy. When the ar
gument was at its height, Dens-
more said, in effect: --
"The officials have my okay. The
rules are on their side, and I lost
my chance to play. So forget this
strike and go out and play golf"
No Retreat
Then Horton Smith moved the
players strike ultimatum be with
drawn. Johnny Farrell backed him
up. But to no avail. The rest of
the players felt they would lose pres
tige by beating retreat in face of
opposition.
President Jacobus saved further
argument by issuing the "Shute
plays" edict. Perhaps it was for
tunate that Shute did not win. The
governors couldn't stop Denny from
playing, but they could exercise GER
tain rights in certifying the P. G.. A.
champion.
Regardless of the outcome, pro-
fessional golf did not benefit from
the tournament war. Both officials
and players were mistaken. The
players, though worthy of praise for
their loyalty to fellow player, erred
in waiting until the last moment to
actively assert themselves. And
when cool-headed judgment was
needed, the officials were found
wanting.
The meet more closely resembled
a dog fight than golf tournament.
Members of the club, who had re-
linquished playing rights in order to
give the pros chance to display
their ability, were completely dis
gusted. The situation had reached
such a point that officials were
warned to take their tournament off
the premises or to begin playing.
Rebellious players, many of whom
| Oul1I up lllS PlO IOu1lldIllGIlt, were
far from pleased with the unfavor-
able press notices devoted to the af-
fair. They did not want to settle
the Shute issue in such a drastic
manner, but seemingly thought it
the only way out.
The governors did not like Jaco-
bus method of handling the dispute.
They had voted Shute ineligible on
two occasions, and expected their
president to abide by the official de-
cision. He did not do so.
At present there is talk that the
stars intend to form an organization
OF their own. If this movement is
successful it may sound the death
knell of the p. G. A. The organiza-
ton needs the stars far more than
the stars need it.
The questions will be answered
at the executive meeting in No
vember. Either some of the die
hards will be dropped from the or
ganization, or the stars will strike
out for themselves.
Right now the latter solution
seems the more likely.

JailS Are Similar

Portuguese prisons of today are
similar to those early Philadelphia
jails. Iron bars before the windows
of the prisons in Portugal prevent
escape of prisoners, but permit the
offenders to talk with acquaint-
ances in the street and to receive
food and cigarettes.

The tourist trade in Arizona is
a matter of statewide interest. The
problem is to bring tourists to Ari-
zona-not what city they shall Wis
it. A nationwide effort should be
made to bring tourists to our state.
After they are here, each town can
offer its own attractions. It is not
enough to bring the tourists to the
state. When they arrive, provision
must be made to entertain and keep
them here.
The immediate necessity is to
Nogales international., 1939-07-22

attempt to eliminate worthless stock
which has deplented the reserva-
ton range of forage.
More than 1000 semi-wild horses,
which officials said were unfit for
ranch work, were being sold.
The tribal council, raised no OBJ
jections to depletion of the range
stock and the Indian Service said
they were cooperating in the cam
paign.
The government, fearing that the
Navajos would not part willingly
with their horses, obtained a court
order month ago requiring tribes
men to assist the government in
the roundup.

WICKENBURG
Wickenburg undoubtedly has the greatest
opportunity of any town in the state for
further development, providing 1t Is not
cut off by change Of highway routing
! Wickenburg lies at the gateway to all Of
western Arizona, where there should be
the following major developments:
river.
Build irrigation project on Date creek
Build irrigation project on Bill Williams
river.
Build Hassayampa irrigation project near
! Morristown.
Build Centennial wash irrigation project.
Bring in cheap power.
| Develop electric metallurgical mining
processes, such as ferro-manganese, ferro-
j silicon and electrolytic iron in Western Ari-
zona where cheap power and large natural
reserves are available.
Develop tourist trade by sound exploita-
tion Of dude ranches.
! WILLIAMS
Secure timber research laboratory.
| Develop tourist trade:
By recreational areas on Bill VII
liams mountain.
By exploiting Grand Canyon route.
BY trout hatcheries and road to Syca-
more creek.
Build winter sports area.
YUMA AND SOMERTON
This area has the greatest opportunities
for immediate development Of any portion
i, Of the state. These developments can be
brought about quickly If public opinion and
J the proper leadership will arise in the Yuma
area.
A seaport for Arizona should be built
/ The Yuma-Gila valley irrigation project
should be developed to the full extent of
its possibilities. Cheaper power should be
brought in for pumping throughout the
district.
The foregoing list, Secretary
Grand says, comprises only few
of the multitude of worthwhile and
constructive projects which will
add new wealth and bring new
prosperity to Arizona. He adds:
"These projects will constitute a
permanent source of income and
will build a state which will endure
for generations. With few excep-
tions these projects are practical
and can be worked on sound fl
nancial basis. All that is lacking
is the will to do it and a sponsor
with the ability to put it over.
"In every community other prof.
ects can be pointed out, many of
which would be more meritorious
than these listed. The object in
preparing this list is to show that
these projects do exist throughout
the state and to arouse on the part
of our citizens the desire for de-
veloping their state.
Everyone Of these projects
merits the support of the entire
state. The full weight and influ-
ence of every city of the state will
be placed squarely behind any
municipal official or civic group
which undertakes the sponsorship
Of any particular project.
"It takes both leadership and
money to put over any of these
projects. This means that city
officials throughout the state
should take the lead in this work
"The municipalities of the state
have always led in the development
of Arizona. Once again. these
officials must show the way to q
state which is today stagnating."

100000 Mexican

1899 were the largest on record, the
total being 100000 head out Of a
total of 4O1, 900 cattle imported into

Canada supplied most of the bal

This situation has been brought
about by relatively high stocker and

through this country today that
would be despisable except that 1t
is pitiful-preaching the doctrine Of
fear; fear that If we assert our right
to enjoy religion, morality and JUS
tice and our right to liberty that
we will be forced into war.
We are told that the legal things
that the President has done to date
ere leading us into war as we were
led into war in 1917.
The situations in 1917 and today
with regard to our foreign policy are
entirely different. Prior to the
World War our people, our President
and our Congress asserted the rights
of our citizens to enjoy the freedom
of the seas under the accepted rules
Of international law. That law was
definite as to neutrals having a right
to trade with neutrals. Neutrals
had right to trade even with bel
ligerents. No ship of neutrals could
be destroyed when trading with neu-
trails; no ship Of a neutral could be
destroyed even when trading with
a belligerent and even if carrying
contraband of war, without first
making provision for the safety OF
those on board the ship. Both sides
in the World War denied neutrals
their right under international law.
The only difference was that one
side did not destroy lives, and the
other did.
President Wilson protested against
the violation of our neutral rights
for months and months, and then
came the final order of the German
government, which read as follows
Under these circumstances Ger
many will meet the illegal measures
Evening star., 1939-02-21

successfully defend our country, its
institutions and our citizens. We
will not aid a government whose
policy is based upon conquest and
military domination. We will not
refuse the oppressed governments
any aid that we may legally give
them, short OF war. We will pre-
pare, without alliance, to defend our
Government, its institutions, its peo-
pie and their rights against any
illegal and unjust attacks. We will,
unafraid, resist any encroachments
upon the rights of our citizens under
any treaties with us by every legal
means at our command short of
war, relying upon this power which
in my opinion is sufficient and will
avert war. We are not frightened,
however, by the circumstances that
this resistance may cause some other
country to declare war upon us.
In the first place, that declara ton
would be both absurd and futile.
No country can successfully attack
our shores. In the second place. our
people are not cowardly. While
they hate war they are not afraid
to die for Christianity, morality,
justice and liberty. Many mistake
has been made in past history by
not letting dictator governments
know this on the start. They prob
ably would never have moved. That
we will die, however. for these
things we consider worth more than
life, we know. And possibly we
will preserve peace, by telling people
who do not understand these things
what we intend to do and will do.
There is propaganda going

Of her enemies by forceful prevent
ing, after February /, 1917, in a
zone around Great Britain, France,
Italy and the Eastern Mediterra-
mean, all navigation, that Of neu-
trails included, from and to Eng
land, from and to France, ETC., etc.
All ships met with In that zone will
be sunk"
Remember that the line of this
zone was hundreds Of miles out IN
the Atlantic, and unmarked, and
excluded the neutral ships OF the
United States from all the neutral
countries in Europe. Between Feb
ruary /. 1917. and the day of the
declaration Of war by the United
States, on April 6, our merchant
ships were destroyed In that zone
without notice, with the loss of the
lives of 70 of our citizens.
The people Of this country chose
war. The President of the United
States was impelled to ask for a
declaration Of war, but it was the
Congress of the United States under
the Constitution, and the Congress
alone, that declared war. Congress
could have refused to declare war
1t didn't. Look back over the record
vote and you will find that only a
few in each House voted against It.
Today the foreign policy of our
Government has been modified by
the neutrality act passed by Con-
gress and approved by President
Roosevelt. In effect it modifies, if
1t doesn't abandon, our right to the
freedom of the seas under interna-
tional law.
We will not now permit any arms
ammunition or implements of wal
Evening star., 1939-02-21

to be shipped to any belligerent
country or to any neutral country
for reshipment to belligerent
country. We will not permit any
products Of the United States to
be shipped to a belligerent country
by a citizen Of the United States.
The title must first be transferred
to foreigner. The President is
authorized to prevent our ships
from engaging In commerce with
belligerents. Our citizens are pro.
hibited from travelling upon bellig.
erent passenger ships.
President Wilson did not and
could not lead us into war in 1917.
President Roosevelt, under the ap-
proved policy of our Government
and the Neutrality Act, has no in
tention to lead us into war and
cannot lead us into war. Every
member Of Congress is an elected
representative of American citizens.
Never In the history of the United
States were such representatives
more responsive to the will of their
constituents. This is right and in
accord with our form of represent
ative Government. Congress, un-
der the accepted policy of our
Government, will not lead us into
! war.
Why further impose upon the
credulity and the fear of our citi-
zens? Why join In the policies Of
appeasement or isolation that have
not made for peace but for war
throughout the world? Why not
wholeheartedly support the hon.
orable, peaceful and practicable
policy of our administration? Every
| patriotic citizen will!

ambitious dictators. That might be
a presumption. AS matter of fact,
we know that the three dictatorial
powers, Germany, italy and Japan.
are increasing their populations and
influence in Latin America. We
know that these dictatorial powers
are through every means, monetary,
financial and political, preparing for
the domination of Latin America.
OF course, this penetration into
Latin America does not become
pertinent, and will not become per-
tinent until and unless these to-
talitarian powers have obtained suf-
ficient domination in Europe and
Asia to permit them to move in force
against Latin America. Any rea-
sonable man will say that that is
possible. Any reasonable man would
say we should protect against such
possibility.
We hear pacifists say we will de-
fend our own shores, but we will
fight nowhere else. Will we fight
against the threat to our own shores?
Where does the threat start? Are
we to wait until a fleet lands its
marines on the Atlantic and Pacific
and its airplanes bomb our cities?
Are we to wait until military forces
are established on our borders and
airplane bases established that may
freely bomb the Panama Canal,
before we act? Are we to pursue
the policy of appeasement and sur
render and retreat before the threat
of war, until our own country has
been made the battle-ground of a
foreign invader, and our aged and
our women and children are bombed
from the air?
I assert that no patriotic Amer
ican citizen will agree to such a
cowardly, unpatriotic and disastrous
policy.
And what is our foreign policy in
the circumstances? I have at
tempted to state it in the third
policy. The President, in his mes
sage to Congress, clearly stated our
policy, as I have attempted to re-
state it here. We will enter into
no entangling alliances. We will
be prepared, singly and alone, to

time there is nothing to stop the
conquest of Europe and Asia by the
three dictator powers. Does that
affect US? I pass the question of our
islands in the Pacific. I pass the
question as to whether after their
conquest they would directly attack
the United States. The question is,
would they attempt to dominate the
Latin American republics? Some
may say why should they?" Others
