Convention For Selecting Democratic
Nominee For
Governor Proposed By Nogales Man

In letter to Col. William Turn
bow of the Phoenix Gazette, Writ
G.. Bowman of Nogales, former
Democratic national committeeman,
suggests Democrats return to the
old convention system of selecting
a candidate for governor next year.
BOWMAN LETTER
Following is the text of Mr.. Bow
mans letter:
IT told you I was out of poll
tics and am, but naturally, am
interested in the good of the
state as well as the party.
when a fellow reads about
all these different people who

may be aspiring to the govern
crship in 1912, it makes him sit
up and think alittle as to what
the result might be if the vote
were split IL ways. as it was in
the congressional race.
IT am wondering if it would
not be a good idea for the
chairman Of the Democratic
party in this state to call a con-
vention, regardless Of the pri-
mary law, and invite all of the
people who think they are CUB
ernatorial material to be present
and there select our candidate.

An Old Prediction
Comes to Light

A week after the Russo-German
war started. one of my listeners
called my attention to a fading rec
ord of the foreign relations of the
United States, Of July II, 1919.
1t is a report of the then vice
consul at Viborg, Robert Imbrie,
who was later killed in Teheran,
Persia. The report describes in de-
tail the struggle between the White
Russians and Bolshevicks Chat is
the state department spelling at the
time.) 1t urges that the United
States give sanction to an attack on
Russia by the Finnish forces which
represented an army and navy
which Vice Consul Imbrie said lis
quite capable Of taking Petrograd
(Leningrad)."
Mr.. Imbrie concludes:
1T has long been apparent that
Russia, as an economic factor has,
under the Bolshevicks, ceased to ex-
list, at least so far as the United
States and the Allied Nations are
concerned. Where formerly she pro-
duced food in such quantities that
it formed a large item Of her ex-
port, now she is starving, a condi-
ton directly attributable to Bolshe-
wick misrule and terrorism. The
world is not only shut off from one
of the greatest commercial markets,
but it is also deprived of one great
source Of food supply. The agents
of Germany. with an eye to the COM
mercial and political future, are TAX
ing full advantage Of the existing
conditions. Already the feeling of
Bolshevick Russia is with Ger
many"
I never met Mr.. Imbrie but his
tragedy came back in an oddly per-
sonal way today when I received the
letter containing the above refer
ence. Some 10 years after Imbrie
was killed I was on a hiking trip in
the Green mountains and a friend
Of mine loaned me an army can

RUSSIANS:
4 Picture

Gradually, as the Russo-German
war moved into the latter part of
the first month. a growingly clearer
picture of the situation could be OBJ
tanned.
Stripped of equivocal commu-
niques, and delving behind these
with the aid of town names and gen.
eral lines. here was the portrait of
conditions at that period:
The Germans, together with their
allies, had attacked along a LOO
mile front, with initial quick success
in the extreme north, in the central
district, and a slower success in the
south.
This continued, with the Russians
falling back and burning towns and
supplies as far as possible for about
a week or 10 days.
Then the German advance ran
into the Stain line and an entirely
different tempo Of Russian resist
ance. It was almost as though a
large train had run into a resilient
obstacle. which halted it gently and
then even began to shove it back
ward.
The Russian communicates paint
ed this picture as far more favorable
to the Reds, and the Germans mini
mixed or ignored things. and spoke
Of everything being Expected" and
running on schedule" All this, Of
course, might be true, depending on
the schedule.
From other points came data,
however. tending to show that the
German machine had perhaps not
met It's master, but at any rate a
foeman worthy Of its steel, and one
that was not going to be q push
over" in the sense Of previous op-
ponents.

SYRIA:
End of Var

The official announcement that a
formal request for an armistice had
come to the British from General
Dentz of the Vichy defenders
seemed to bring an end to a cam
paign which ended on the saddest
of possible notes.
Churchill struck the British atti-
tude by saying:
Il hardly need say how very glad
His Majesty's Government is to see
an end brought to this very distress
ing conflict in which 1000 to 1,500
British, Australian and Indian
troops who had volunteered in order
to defend France have fallen killed
or wounded under French bullets as
a result Of the lamentable confusion
into which the affairs Of so many
good people in so many parts Of
the world have been thrown by the
victories Of Hitler's army"
This was a gentle way Of acquaint-
ing the people with the number of
casualties there had been in the
British forces. How many the Free
French, under De Gaulle, had lost,
was not mentioned, but it was be-
lieved to have been heavier, as they
assumed the brunt of the attack.
Alfred Duff Cooper said:
Il am Mortified to hear that funds
r being collected to celebrate the
victory in Syria"
The decision of General Dentz to
u for peace came at a time When
the pressure "a being put heavily
on Beirut, which, it turned out.
was the key to the whole campaign.
R. A. F.:
The mastery of the daytime air
on the western front of the war re-
manned with the Raj, which was
carrying out bombing attacks in the
new large tempo. with squadrons
aloft by day and by night.
1t was revealed that the Nazis
now have floating anti-aircraft bat
teries around Wilhelmshaven, and
that flights Of bombers which meet
with no resistance at all over the
French coastal areas except from
ant~i-aircraft fire, are meeting with
considerable fighter resistance as
soon as they get over Germany.

AXIS:
Sickness?

Two American incidents tended to
show that since the start Of the Rus
sian campaign, even before. there
had been some signs within Ger
many and Italy of what might be
termed Axis sickness.
Walter Alexander. 81 = year : old
American citizen born in Germany,
left there about six weeks ago. He
had been in the real-estate bust
ness in Berlin since 1888.
He finally arrived in Jersey City,
where he was quoted as follows:
Forty per cent Of the German
people are against Hitler and the
war.
THE German people are just be-
ginning to tire of it. And they have
the feeling that it does not matter
whether they win. They feel they
have lost their freedom anyway.
Business men in Germany r
disguised, because they a make no
move except under government reg
u1ation and orders"
And Count Carlo Sforza, once a
member Of Mussolini's cabinet, but
who now declares he was one Of the
original foes Of Fascism, said at
Ann Arbor, Mich. that a British
victory in the war would be the in
slant signal for the fall of the Mus
solini government.
Even now, the count declared,
there might at any time be a pas
sive strike" on the part Of the
Italian navy. which does not like to
fight on the side Of the Germans.
He said, however, that Italy was
so much under the domination Of
Hitler that the people knew a signal
for revolt against Mussolini would
mean that the Germans would
march on Milan, Venice and Trieste
and also on Rome.
Germany must fall first, before
the present Italian regime collapses,
he said.

ICELAND:.
4 MoDe

The sudden step which President
Roosevelt took in ordering the &C.
cupation of Iceland by American
naval forces, and the plan to thus re-
lieve the British in the handling Of
that distant adjunct Of the occupied
Danish kingdom not only clarified
the present foreign policy but
brought repercussions on both sides
Of the Atlantic.
These were both favorable and un-
favorable to the move, the Brit
ish hailing it with obvious delight as
putting teeth" and de%finiteness into
the U. S. policy of insuring arrival
of lease-lend aid and the fullest CO.
operation short of war with Britain.
The Axis powers, as were to be
expected. were quoted v~ariously as
vigorously opposing such action
which, apparently, they did not
learn of until it was an accom-
plished fact. The Germans said the
U. S. now had troops lin the war
zone" and could expect results; the
Italians called 1t a provocative"
step; and the Japanese called 1t de
facto American entry into the war"
These sentiments were echoed on
this side Of the water by the chief
opponents Of the administration,
Senator Wheeler not only being out
spoken against it, but drawing
White House FIRE for having an
nounced the rumored objective
before it took place, thus, accord
ing to a White House secretarial
statement, ''jeopardizing American
lives"
More interesting we're the specu-
lations concerning future moves, the
Nazi sources recalling in their ON
ment on the Presidents action the
fact that he had spoken previously
of the strategic import, from a
Western hemisphere viewpoint, of
the Azores, the Cape Verde islands,
and Dakar, African port.
The President also made clear
that geographical definitions of the
Western hemisphere. as far as he
is concerned, do not make much diff
ference, and that when one is de-
tending a certain section of the
globe, it is more important to ''out-
guess the other fellow" than to draw
geographical limitations on your &C.
tivities.

LEASE-LEND:
Aid Speeding

A report that President Roosevelt
was going to ask for another large
lease-lend appropriation to add to
the seven billions of dollars, a goodly
portion of which was spent and all
Of it allocated. was coupled with the
statement that American lease-lend
aid to Britain Is nov moving at a
speedier clip.
The statement was made that a
ship a day. approximately, is dock
ing and unloading at Red e ports,
not accounting for such others as
may be arriving in convoy in Eng
land itself.
If these ships T well loaded
with the munitions Of war, then the
British commands in North Africa
as well as on the British Isles should
be having measurably strengthened
their hands.
The period in which General
Auchinlech took over and General
Wavell gave up the North African
command was followed by a con
tinuance of the inactivity which had
marked this stalemate.
But as soon as the Syrian peace
was announced, it was expected that
the North African battle would be
resumed, and that the new general
plus his new equipment, would make
a determined effort tn release the
long-besieged garrison of Tobruk.

KNUDSEN:
And Rubber

And Rubber
The statement by William S.
Knudsen, Of OPM, making a tour Of
the defense production areas. that
he had little worry about the rubber
situation, despite the fact that the
government %foreseeing a shortage,
had ordered the tire makers not
to use more rubber than they had in
the first six months.
Mr.. Knudsen said that the rubber
situation was this: that eve If the
supply of real rubber was cut off,
the industry knew enough about syn
thetic rubber manufacture to pick
right up and continue the supply Of
suitable tires and other articles with
out feeling the shortage Of the actual
article at all.
A talk with rubber experts re-
vealed that while some disagreed
with Mr.. Knudsen. the outstanding
majority believe it could be done,
and with ease. Said one:
I'VE can make a tire that will
outlast and outperform a real rub
Der tire right now. All that is need
ed is for our factories to make slight
changes in technique.
If u supply Of raw real rub
Der were cut off, here is what l
think would happen. Factories would
be started in construction to manu-
facture hundreds of thousands Of
tons of synthetic rubber.
while we were waiting to get
them in production, we have six
months supply of sheet rubber on
hand, and for another six months we
could operate with mixtures of re-
claimed rubber and synthetic rub
Der, and so, in the IL or IA months
that it would take to get the new
factories built and in operation there
would be no lost motion at all, for
we have inventories Of finished tires
that would last about six months"
He could say little about the price
Of such tires. but some experts
thought they might be slightly more
expensive than rubber tires at first,
until the know how" had been
achieved in making them.

SAN FRANCISCO, April 16.-The
Government called its fifth witness

versive organization and therefore

The Government did not say be-
forehand who this witness would be-
Howard Rushmore, ex-Communist
and former reporter for the Daily
Worker, was asked yesterday if he
believed Mr.. Bridges was men,
Der of the Communist party. Trial
Examiner Charles B. Sears, however,
sustained a defense objection and
the question was not answered.
Earlier witnesses merely linked
Mr.. Bridges, native of Australia,
with Communist party activities.
Mr.. Rushmore testified that Mr..
Bridges was more or less one of
the heroes of the Communist party"
and could not be criticized in the
Daily Worker, which he described as
"the organ of the Communist party"
Mr.. Rushmore was a member of
the Communist party from 1884 to
1899. Now on the staff of the New
York Journal and American, Mr..
Rushmore quit the party in pro-
test against suppression of free
dom of speech and press and the
continuance of policy of hypocrisy
and deceit" He left the Daily
Worker when he was told to re-
view the motion picture, Gone
With the Wind" and treat 1t as a
Fascist film.
