County Gets
Good Share OF
Road Funds

Santa Cruz County comes in for
a good share of road funds under
the State Highway Commission
budget for 1940-1941, published in
todays Nogales International.
Persons interested in road con-
struction expressed satisfaction ov
er the 100000 allotment for road
construction, plus about $25, 900 for
maintenance purposes.
The construction allotment is
twice as much as this county re-
ceived when the last budget was
drawn up.
This amount will enable workers
to Gil the road beyond Patagonia
and do much work on the route be-
tween Patagonia and Sonoita.
Senator Ed Bohlinger, chairman
of the Santa Cruz County Chamber
OF Commerce highway committee,
expressed himself as highly pleased
over the county appropriation.
He said oiling of the route to Pat
agonia would benefit both that
town and Nogales.

Vast Exodus
OF Children
From England

LONDON, June HistoryS
greatest migration of children was
planned tonight as Britain prepared
to save scores Of thousands of young
sters from the horrors of war by
sending them to dominions on the
other side of the world.
Plans for a movement of boys and
girls, unparalleled even in the fan
tastic children's crusaders of the
middle ages, virtually have been
completed, it was understood.
Australia and New Zealand, espe-
cially, and Canada and South Af-
RIGA are holding cut their arms to
young refugees from England with
L war orphans society in Sydney
planning homes for $4,000 children.
Goeffrey Shakespear, secretary
fer the Dominions, told the House
Of Commons that the question of
evacuat ting children from the United
Kingdom to the Dominions is ere
ceiving urgent consideration.
Plans as first drafted only two,
weeks ago arranged to offer sane
tuary to Belgian, Dutch and French
waits. But the scheme was rapidly
readjusted, under the threat of air
bombardments On the British Isles,
to take care of British children.

were Rep. Jonathan P. Dolliver of
Iowa, Cornelius NJ Bliss, and Lieut.

BRUSHED ASIDE
Dolliver seemed to hold the edge
for the nomination until Roosevelt,
with his wide-mouthed grin and
bristling mustache, installed him
self in 10th floor hotel suite. The
public fancy was caught by the
Rough Rider, whose ambitions,
whatever they might have been Ger
tainly were not for the vice presi-

York state leader, started their
campaign of Roosevelt for Vice
President
Platt's interest in kicking Roose-
welt upstairs" was deep-seated. AS
governor of New York, Roosevelt
had just signed a bill providing for
the taxation of street railway fran
cnises. Platt foressw Roosevelt cru
sading en- his antitrust platform.
1t was logical reasoning to place
Roosevelt in the vice presidency.
T. e. ATTITUDE CHANGED
Why Roosevelt, who was report
ed nearly choleric at the mention
of his name fer the presidency
eventually accepted, is a topic for
conjecture.
Although he boasted of his PROV
ess ito dominate the machine he
may have realized that political
bosses Of 1900 brooked no disobe-
dience, and his refusal of the hon

end of his career.
A fiction-like legend is that Roose-
velt scorned the nomination at first,
then accepted almost overnight be-
cause of inside information, pre-
sumably concerning the state of Mr..
McKinley's health.

Autogiro On
West Front
Held Feasible

PHILADELPHIA June (UP) -
Capt. Louis 3. Ely, Army artillery
instructor, predicts that the auto
giro may provide the French army
with means Of cracking the Ger
man WestWall.
Ely said that new unannounced
DEVELOPMENTS in the autogiro field
have brought the attention of mill
tary experts to the possible eXten-
sive use of this type aircraft in
military operations.
Ely pointed out that the auto
giro is of considerable use in OBJ
servation work because of its ability
to rise and lower itself within a
very small space. 1t also can be
protected effectively with small
arms from the ground, Ely said.
With a fleet of autogiros, observ-
ing French artillerymen could place
a few shots in the Westwall, cor
rectly note placement of their shots
and then lay down devastating
barrage, believes Ely.

10000 Names On Petitions Providing
For Vote On Gambling This Fall

Sullivan, Phoenix attorney, was the
first initiative measure to qualify
for the November election ballot.
The petitions carried 10000 sig
natures, approximately 5000 more
than required and we're filed in the
presence of Moore, Gov. r. T. Jones
and Attorney General Joe Conway.
The measure proposed four classi-
ficstions of gambling to be legaliz-
ed in the state. They were:
l. Slot machines, expected to-
produce some 81 10000 revenue an
nually. The measure proposed a
81 1000 license fee for each 100 ma
chimes. Operators of the establish
ments where the machines are op-
Grated would be required to pay a
$40 month fee en- each machine.
2. Punch boards. A license fee of
$25 month levied on each estab-
lishment operating them.
3. Card games. License fees of
$25 month charged each table of
eight players Or less.
4. Casinos. A total Of Is gam
bling casinos would be licensed un-
der the initiative measure. Two
would be placed in Maricopa coun-
ty with one a piece for the other
l3 counties. Casinos would pay eight
per cent of the gross to the state
and probably yield a major portion
of the revenue.
Administration of the law would
be placed in the hands of a gam
bling ''czar'' who would be appoint
ed by the governor. Under the meas
rwe's provisions, the director of
gambling control would serve until
Dec. is, 1916.
Sullivan estimated the measure
would net the state revenue of ap-
proximately $4,OOO,O00 (M) annually
and would be a stimulant to tourist
trade. a
The measure provides that earn
ings of the gambling establishments
be used to pay old age pensions,
with the remainder going back to
the county governments on a pro-
rata basis.
