preceding the war. permitting the
arming of merchant ships to pro-
tect our right OF freedom OF the
seas.
Passage OF legislation making
available to our nation the largest
armed force we have ever had,
calling for the registration OF all
men from 20 to A years old for
military service and the registra-
tion of men from IS to Ga for pos
sible war work.
That's a brief summary OF what
our congressman did in 1941.
In 1912 1t is expected that lot
more history-making legislation
will be passed-particularly legis-
lation aimed at a tightening up of
our economic system to withstand
the greatly increased purchasing
power. the gigantic government
expenditures. the scarcity OF ma
terials and higher taxes.
AS congress begins its 1912 ses-
sion, the leading measures up for
immediate consideration are:
Passage of price control legisla-
tion, which will put ceilings on
prices to keep them from skyrock-
citing and which may include cell
ings on wages or possible freezing
of wages at present levels.
Probable enactment OF anti
strike legislation to give legal
strength to the anti-strike agree
ments reached between labor and
employers.
Possible legislation to cut down
non-defense government spending.
Drastic legislation imposing
heavier taxes on all of us to help
pay for our huge war expenditures.
There are many plans under con-
sideration for this which include a
broad sales tax, heavy tax on
wages to be withheld at source by
employers and a possible forced
saving plan by which part of our
wages will be put into defense
bonds or other forms OF govern
ment savings.
Legislation for increased civilian
defense, such as a probable law
calling for the supplying Of gas
masks to the people, providing for
building air raid shelters. etc.
Much of the 1912 legislation, it
is expected, will be rapid-fire make
shift measures to meet changing
conditions in the war. Most of it
will be requested by the President
and then enacted In record time.

Washington, ID. c. (NWNS)-
The ordinary holiday lull here.
which was expected to some ex-
tent even with the war going on,
turned out instead TO be a period
OF intense excitement due TO the
presence OF England's head man,
Winston Churchill, in the White
House.
Mr.. Churchill's presence In
Washington, his secret arrival and
his many meetings with the key
men in our war program have cleo
trified the activities OF all branch;
es OF our government and have
added whatever extra stimulant
was necessary to bring about com
plete unity of our people with the
people OF England.
Mr.. Churchill's winning person
ality. his zeal. his great capacity
for work. and his hard-headed com
mon sense have won for him the
high respect and admiration OF
our government officials, the peo-
pie OF this city and the members
OF the press.
Although the White House af.
forded real excitement during the
holidays, things were very quiet on
Capitol Hill. many congressman
having gone home for the holidays

Congress has completed what is
generally considered the most &C.
tive session in the history of the
United States. A review OF the
major accomplishments is almost
fantastic. In addition to many
measures which would generally
be considered important but which
were dwarfed by comparison with
the leading measures. this congress
will go down In history for the
passage of the following bills:
The declaration of war on Japan
The declaration of war on Ger

Some more or less subtle moves
on the part of Gov. Osborn's politi-
cal lieutenants suggest to several
sagacious politicos the chief exec
utive is being groom to run against
u. S. Sen. Carl Hayden in 1914.
The governor, of course, disclaims
any such intention. expressing pro-
found friendship for the senior
senator.
But those who have followed Mr..
Osborn's political career are skep-
tical. They recall that he ran
against U. S. Sen. Henry Asffurst
after Ashurst had him appointed in
ternal revenue collector, the most
lucrative federal job in Arizona
except the judiciary.
Then, too. he attempted to oust
L. c. Holmes from the State In
dustrial Commission after Mr..
Holmes was the largest single con-
tributor to Mr.. Osborn's 1898 cam
paign fund, fact which is mat
ter OF record in the secretary OF
states office.
With those examples in mind.
not a few observers are OF the
opinion Carl Hayden will be the
next friend to be sacrificed In an
effort to satisfy Mr.. Osborn's po-
litical ambitions.
1t isn't likely Lynn Lockhart. in
dustrial commissioner, will respond
to the urging of friends that he be
a candidate for the Democratic
nomination for governor this year.
He recently turned down 100000
a-year Job rather than permit the
governor to obtain control of the
commission. Always a "sticker."
Mr.. Lockhart isn't apt to leave the
commission at this time.

nix of Federal Power Commission
hearing Jan. ~.
With these activities, in addition
to the war, diverting public atten-
tion. the governor can proceed
with his already disclosed plan of
loading down the state defense
setup with political henchmen.
1t Is evident to observers that
GOV. Osborn got the political break
OF lifetime In the defense pro-
gram. For a year he was thwart-
ed by the constitution and the
State Supreme Court from seizing
control OF coveted state depart
ments in which he could place cam
paign workers. Then, along came
the war which gave him an ex-
cuse to declare an emergency and
create jobs for many OF those who
have been trying to exist on prom
ises.
The payroll OF the defense setup
begins to look like the campaign
headquarters OF Osborn in 1910.
The only fly in the ointment Is
State Auditor Ana Frohmiller's in
sistence that the attorney general
give an opinion okehing the ex-
panding payroll.
The Coolidge examiner., 1942-01-09

An example of how Jobs are be-
ing provided at fat salaries Is the
case of d. Kelly Turner, executive
secretary of the State Defense
Council.
Turner has been receiving $3.50
a month from social security funds
allotted to the aged and infirm;
crippled children, the blind and
other dependents of the govern
ment. Along came an examina-
ton to determine qualifications of
anyone drawing that much money
from social security funds. Tur-
ner after serving for many months,
was found to lack the necessary
qualifications. so he was dropped
from the payroll.
But the former campaign man
ager for Gov. Osborn bounced right
back higher than ever. He went
on the state payroll at $500 a
month"; $50 raise-to be paid
from defense monies out OF the
$25, 1000 emergency fund.
Turner receives this added po-
litical payoff despite his publicly
admitted negligence" on the de-
fense Job. and editorial accusations
OF "dereliction" of duty made by
state newspapers.
In the light of such maneuvers 1t
isn't surprising that a charge Of
playing politics continues to be
made against Osborn's defense set
up.
What is being accomplished in
preparations for the safety of per-
sons and property in Arizona is
being done by groups of patriotic
citizens-serving without pay
working independently Of the poll
ticians.
