Post Presents
Story On Border
Drug Traffic

Our government is constantly in
tensifying the war on drug addic-
ton. One of the toughest jobs in
connection with this war is the
apprehending of the narcotics as
they enter the country. Today, the
hottest spot for drug smuggling is
along the Mexican border. And
here Uncle Sans customs agents
maintain a constant watch for the
dope smugglers.
In this weeks Saturday Evening
Pest, Neil NJ Clark tells the story
of these ever-alert agents in an
article titled They're Death On
Dope Runners"
There are only so of these
agents, but their numbers are no
measure of the accomplishments.
Each of them seems to hate drugs
and drug dealers with sort of holy
hatred. It is this attitude that
leads them to risk their lives every
day in picking up information
which will lead to arrests.

Arizona Amvets
Live Democracy

Democracy among Arizona Am
vets is practiced and lived rather
than talked about, according to
Travis Williams and ]. B. Jones of
PHOENIX.
Both Williams and Jones were
reelected to their posts during a
three-day state meet of the Ameri-
can Veterans of World War II,
held here this week.
The anti-discrimination resolu-
ton, calling for and end to race
and color discrimination in all
posts, was ruled out of order. when
the committee received assurance
from the eleven Post Commanders
that no discrimination exist in the
state.
The AmvetS closed their meet
ing Monday marked by three ma
jor items of business:
1. They elected virtually un-
opposed slate of new officers.
2 Two controversial resolu-
tions were allowed to die in COM
mittee.
3. Tucson was chosen as the
site of the 1858 convention.
The only contested post in the
state departments organization
fell heir to Myron Walter, Tucson,
who was reelected adjutant. Trav-
is Williams, Phoenix, had been
nominated for both the adjutant
and financial official officer posi-
tions. He accepted the latter post.
Other officers are Bob L. Perez,
Tucson, reelected state command
er; Douglas Short, Tucson, first
president, and j. B. Jones,
Phoenix, second vice-president.
The more than 70 delegates, rep
resenting 10 posts, established a
new record for the three-day state
meet, Patrick Whelan, Phoenix,
publicity chairman, said. The con-
vention business and social meet
ings were held in Phoenix Anvet

S. Members Of
Young Boys Club
Enjoy Picnic

The Pee Wees went to wide open
country last Friday on a mammoth
picnic. Blue Point on Salt River
was the scene of much splaShing
in the river and delighted yells of
youngsters from morning until 7
o'clock in the evening. When not
swimming in the river they were
gathered around picnic bench
eating hot dogs and ice cream,
drinking soda pop and lemonade.
The biggest thrills to the kids per-
haps was floating with the current
down stream on an inflated inner
tube or large rubber ball. This was
such a popular stunt that they all
wanted to do it at the same time
with a limited amount of tubes.
At 9 am. Friday morning, 55
Pee Wees, plus 7 chaperones, left
Harmon Park in two buses pro-
vided for the occasion. The forty
mile ride to Blue Pont in itself was
quite an experience to some of
the little fellows who had never
been outside the city limits.
The Pee Wee Club was organized
a few months ago at Harmon Park
by Patrolman Joe Island of the
Phoenix Police Department as a
means of combating juvenile de-
linquency. 1t takes in boys rang

Chongeover to system Of
prefix dioling affecting some
$4,000 telephones in Phoenix
and titchfieId Park is scheduled

The long-awaited shift from the
present method of making a phone
call to letter-and-numeral dialing
will be made simultaneously with
the inception of service by two
new phone offices in East and
South Phoenix.
III. X. Richmond, district man.
ager for Mountain States Tele-

Already five of the girls have qualified for the race with a reported 250 tickets sold, and it is expected that the other two will qualify when their total ticket sales are made known.
 Ticket sales will be the big gest determining factor in the choice of the queen, although beauty, poise, and grace will en- ter into the selection by the judg- es. Her total of ticket sales is a criterion of the effort put forth by each girl to obtain the Fair Queen crown and the honors that go along with it. These hon. ors include reigning over the 1852 Matanuska Valley Fair and a $200 wardrobe. The Fair Queen will be crowned at the Corona tion Ball.
