LOS ANGELES, July 26-One OF
the stormiest petrels of politics,
Mayor Frank CT am the law'O
Hague of Jersey City, was so calm
as to be virtually self-effacing when
he came to Los Angeles yesterday.
''The Democrats will sweep the
country in November" was his
Or'ly statement as, with Mrs.
Hague, their daughter-in-law, Mrs.
Franl. Hague, Jr., and her daugh-

the Santa Fe Super Chief.
He indicated that he was here on
ly for rest, and that he intended
to get it,
He is ranked with Mayor Kelly

having much to do with the recent
third-term nomination of President
Roosevelt.
He was the leader in 1888 of a

Whereabouts OF
Some Former
Nogalians
(By CRAIG POTTINGER)

On a Today trip through the
Southwest, ending Tuesday, the
writer ran across a number of for
mer Nogalians all of whom wished
to be remembered to their friends
in Nogales.
One of our first stops was at Pres
colt where Mr.. and Mrs. Ray Brat
ton operate a high class cafe. Their
daughter, Elizabeth. who was a
small girl when the Brattons NOV
ed away from Nogales, is now stu
dent at the University OF Arizona.
BrattCn's brother, Dean, operates
Jeans Corral" at Wickenburg.
At Flagstaff we saw Jack Cohen
who now lives in Los Angeles and
travels for a coast firm.
At the Grand Canyon we met on
the rim of that great natural Won
der, Ignacio Castro, son of Mrs.
L. E. Castro, 502 Elm street. He
is now with the National Park Serv-
ice and was formerly employed in
the offices of Duffy & Robins.

1888 election and reaffirm my
pledge to exert every effort in their
interests.
In the past year I have been
able to fulfil that pledge with the
aid of the state legislature and the
cooperation of the various state
departments by installing mod
ern system of accrual accounting
in all governmental subdivisions.
This system embodies the principle
of preauditing all claims through
the use of purchase orders, travel
orders and advices of employment.
1T has been my aim to erect
every safeguard possible around the
disbursing of state funds
THE principal requirement of the
state auditor is to audit, investi-
gate, adjust and settle claims
against the state, payable out of
state funds. The auditor must de-
termine whether a claim is for an
actual public purpose, and if not,
payment must be refused. Great re-
sponsibility rests upon the auditor
and I have endeavored to vigilantly
guard the expenditures of state
money. I have constantly kept be-
fore me the fact that my first duty
is to the people of Arizona and I
have tried to make my decisions

It's value can be measured in pride and dollars, and
that value will be increasing every day OF the
next decade if Arizona can cross the half million
mark.
Patriotic Arizonians everywhere are seeking out
the uncounted 48O in one final burst of voluntary
effort.
Will you help?
If you have not been counted, fill out the coupon

immigration officials estimated
there were between 10000 and H.
900 cards in use before July l.
Most of the holders of these cards
have or probably will apply for
visas which will replace the old
cards. With the small staff that
existed in the consulate prior to
July l it was possible only to issue
about 20 visas daily. The number is
now averaging 80 to 40 day, it is
said.
AS the business of Nogales, Ari-

of trade with Mexican citizens af
fects of the new ruling were felt
Immediately Some firms were
forced to reduce their number of
clerks and otherwise cut expenses
as a result of the regulations which
were described by government Of
ficials in Washington as defense
measures
When new regulations were put
into effect it was said that shopping
did not constitute legitimate need
for entering the U. S. Consequently
ordinary shoppers were denied visas
to cross the line here.

Senator Carl Hayden was advised
this week by Eliot B. Coulter, act
ing chief of the visa division of the
state department, that consulates
