Near For State
And Nation
Both Major Parties Claim
Victory Will Be
Theirs

Voters of the nation will go to
the polls next Tuesday to elect
national, state and county law
makers.
Interest in Arizona will focus
mainly on the national election
and its own state initiative and
referendum measures since the
Democratic party in Arizona, and
more particularly in Pinal coun-
ty, has had little opposition in the
general election during the past
few years. However, Republicans
and Willkie Democrats believe the
Democratic stronghold will be
broken.
Tuesdays eelction will deter
mine the continuance of the New
Deal and the unprecedented can
didacy for a third term in the
White House. Headed by Wen
dell l.. Willkie, the national Re-
publican ticket forecasts a land
slide, whereas the Democrats be-
lieve their standard bearer for the
past eight years, Franklin d.
Roosevelt, will be reelected.
Judge e. w. Mcfarland, who de-
feated the veteran Sen. Henry
Ashurst in the September pri-
mary, and Congressman John Muir
dock are the Democrats running
for senate and house, respectively,
against Irwin A. Jennings and X.

Sidney P. Osborn, gubernatorial
candidate, heads the state Demo
cratic ticket against Republican

Arizona voters, as usual, are
confronted with a number of ini-
tiative and referendum measures.
Theoretically, this is good politi-
cal science a more nearly
democratic form of government.
Practically it fails somewhat due
to the lethargy of the voter IN
trying to wade through the legal
wording or due to the inadequate
manner in which the measure is
stated. As a result, about 20 per
cent vote on the measures, and
many who do, vote no" thinking
that is the safe way to vote.
Oftentimes a mo" vote is a yes"
vote due to the negative wording
of the proposition.
