Mr.. Roosevelt did not refer TO

expressed opposition TO the prin-

revision proposed by Sen. Robert A

stead Of a single individual.

TREASURER is
ABLE AD DMINISTRATOR

J. D. "Jim" Brush, demo-
cratic candidate for state
treasurer, now serving in his
eighth year as M ricopa
County assessor has proved
himself an able administrator
by the efficient manner in
which he has conducted his
office. AS your state treas
urer Jim Brush will be an ex-
officio member of the State
Loan Board and the Land
Board. His wide experience
with fiscal affairs and broad
contacts with land values and
appraisal problems make Jim
Brush the logical candidate
for the office of state treas
Urer. The responsible position
of state treasurer requires
the executive qualifications
that Jim Brush's long years
of public service will bring to
that office. Vote Jim Brush

Between The
Book Ends
THE RAFT. By Robert Trumbull.
Henry Holt and Co. 1912.
(OWEN FARRELL Clark

Here is a story that must be read
to be believed. Imagine, if you
can, three ordinary men adrift on
the broad eXpanse of the Pacific
for thirty four days on one of those
small rubber RATS about eight feet
long and four feet wide. Adrift all
this intolerably long time through
deadeningly monotonouS hours of
torment enlivened only by brief but
terrific squalls. Add to this the
facts that the rays of the sun were
merciless, the nights very cold, and
hunger and thirst ever present.
Such however. is the stony of
Bomber Pilot Dixon and his crew
of two, Gene Aldrich and Tony
Pastula. These men were forced to
use these emergency measures when
their plane ran short of fuel and a
landing was made on the sea seven
hundred and fifty miles from the
nearest island.
The record of their trip adds an
other chapter to the annals of the
sea. One cannot read this record
without realizing that the men of
the twentieth century are just as
strong and just as able as their an
cestors when it comes to fighting
the sea. Captain Bligh, himself,
might well blink with amazement
at the amazing achievement OF
these three United States Navy
men.
I suggest that you forget those
title troubles of your own and read
about three men who loved life and
preserved it with all the odds
against them. THE RAFT is a new
book You may have seen the re-
view of it in the latest copy CT
Time. Ask for it al the Nogales
Public Library.

NON-SUPPORT
Washington, July IS,

Washington, July 10.
There is a vast cutlery about the
wickedeness of Congress in not giving
Mr.. Leon Henderson the money he
ays he needs to do the very vital job
If preventing an infationary upsurge
n the cost of living. Members of Con-
gress are being pounded by the press
all over the country. And perhaps,
they deserve it.
Nevertheless, the truth is that if
Mr. Henderson were given the full
two hundred million for which he
asked, under existing conditions, he
still could not do the job. What he
needs more than money is Presiden-
tial support. Without that he is help
less and he knows it. He has courage
enough to pillory Congress for its
failure to cooperate in the anti-infa-
tion-fght, but, apparently, he lacks
VIC OOuI age " lllulCC MI hOoSeNelC
for his failure, which is easy to I'M
derstand. That would mean his resig-
nation and Mr. Henderson does not
want to resign.
Because we are at war and Mr..
Roosevelt is our Commander in Chief
here is a natural reluctance openly
% criticize him. For one thing, if only
as a matter of self-interest, every
clear headed man wants to uphold his
conduct of the war and is anxious that
his healh and strength be preserved.
For another, now as in the past, the
thief result of criticism seems to be
to stimulate the silly "They Have
Roosevelt" chorus with which the radi-
cal press and the New Deal jobholders
habitually meet every dissenting view
no matter how we'll justified
But the meance to the country Of
this situation is so great that there
is no excuse for not speaking plainly.
A leading newspaper put it politely
the other day when it declared that
THE Administration is not giving
courageous support to its own pro-
gram" That is true so far as it goes
but it is an inadequate and not can
did presentation. 1t is confusing and
evasive to say administration" when
you mean Mr.. Roosevelt, who is the
administration and personally respon-
sible. Also, it is inadequate to say that
he is not giving courageous support

giving any support
