E. E. Ellinwood is gone. He died Sunday at his

Ellinwood cannot be dismissed merely by listing
him as one of Arizonas pioneers. He more than

Naming him as a former member of univer-

his service to Arizona education
After giving him due credit as prominent at
Sorney, respected citizen, honorable man, much
still remains unsaid Only those who knew ElinwOod
personally can have true estimation Of how much
he meant to Arizona and how much Arizona meant to
him. They are deeply grieved by his passing.

1t was the concenSus of persons

there would be a verdict of acquittal

disappointed when it was announc-
ed the jury could not agree. Appar-

Hard Fought Trial

Dollar Tax

Of which time he was in St. JOS

an operation.
Commissioners Moore and Hunt
spent all day Saturday in winding
up the annual tax rating fixing
program so as to have a figure fixed
Monday-the second Monday in
Augustine day required by law
for formally setting the rate.
In computing the rate, the COM
missioners estimated the sales tax
receipts for the fiscal year, ending
next June 30, would total 81 $40, $50 !;
luxury taxes, $1,5O0,000; income
taxes, $1,534, ,176.04-each figure be-
ing considerably under the amounts
actually collected for the last fiscal
year.
However, Moore and Hunt ex-
pressed a belief that because Of
Stepped-up war efforts, business
conditions would slow down, there
by justifying their der-estimates.
Only once before in Arizona's
history has the state tax rate been
fixed at 81, records of the state
tax commission disclosed Mon
day. That was in 1884.
The lowest rate in history was 35
cents, set in 1887. The highest,
$1.67, was in 1941. Since statehood,
in 1912, the rate has been more than
81 only five times.

Lower The Voting Age To IS!

Congress is expected to take early action on a
proposal to authorize teen age voting as result of
amendment of Georgia's constitution lowering the
legal voting age from Fl to 18.
While political leaders in Washington speculate
the possibility Of granting 18 to 20-year-old boys
and girls still further privileges such as the right to
hold office the results Of the Georgia election will
have lots of effect the Senate Judiciary Committee
which is considering the proposed nationwide amend
ment
A two-thirds majority vote of both houses would
be required to submit the proposed amendment to the
people, and sc out of the 48 states would have to
ratify it before it became law
If teen age boys are old enough to fight they are
old enough to vote The draft age was lowered to Is
some months ago. Let's lower the voting age!
