The Labor Question

of each. I Know' of no one thing more
important, to the. development of the
etate than the maintenance, of indus
trial peace, tfuch a condition can best
be established and its continuance as
sured through the creation of an indus
trial department under the direction of
n Industrial commissioner. Tin 'f
ficl.il must be a man of keen. under
standing, nualiried by temperament
and experience to deal with repre
sentatives of both labor and capital,;
and be, nM to apply not only the prin-
lplcs of right and justice to the net-,
tlcnient of dinputs, but adjust them
without friction. It would be l.ta duty
to safctruard labor and at the same
time protect th industries of the state
from unjust exactions and demands.
Thta department could perform valu
able Bcrvice in other ways by super
vising the, distribution of labor, thus
avoiding a congestion of unemployed
In any one. district. With the growth
of the state and its industries the need
of such a department becomes dally
more Important. The term of the
commissioner nhould not be less than
six years. I-ong- term service is pre
ferable in that It develops consistent
and experienced administration and
provides against changes due to poli
tical fluctuations.
Abolish Rcaources Board
Owing to limited appropriation, the
Arizona resource board could not carry
out ine oDjects for which it was ap
luimru. iiiii ciicctive worK, upon
limited money, was done, is amply evl-
f cienced by the report of its activities
now awaiting your Inspection. I feel
that due to the Impossibility of making
adequate financial provision commen
stirate with tho m-ope and importance
of its labor, it would be the expedient
tnins to abolish this board and appro
priate a like amount to be used under
the direction of the executive for the
furtherance of state and inter-state
reclamation projects.
An Impediment to Progress
The constitutional provision limitine
the amount of mate bonded indebted
ness to $360,000 still stands as a bar
rier to our advancement. This fact has
been called 'to the attention of the leg
islature by myself and my predecessor,
but without result. The ex-service
men, represented by the American
Lpion, will appear before you and
present their claims in the form of a
land bllL My eupport and co-operation
have been pledged to them, but pro
mises will prove meaningless unless
your body takes steps to remove the
restriction referred to. Several large
tracts of land In this state could be
utilized to excellent advantage in grati
fying the desire of these men for
' homes. Direct taxation would prove
too burdensome in the financing of
aueh an undertaking:, but with tne
bonded debt limitation removed, a
feasible plan, devoid of such objection,
could be formulated. The Kourth state
legislature enacted a soldiers settle
ment act but its operation was con
tingent upon congress adopting the
Lane or tome bill of similar purport.
As congress failed to do Its part, the
Arizona law has served no other pur
pose than to encumber the statute
books. Although there is no direct,
there certainly is an Implied obliga
tion on the part f the utate of Arizona
to reward in a substantial way the
men whose valorous representation
made possible the peace and blessings
we njoy today. I would therefore urpe
that your earnest consideration be
given to thls recommendation.
The Road Problem
There Is a remarkable unanimity of
sentiment existing as to the necessity
of good roads but a wide divergence of
opinion, however, as to whether the su
pervisory authority, not only as to
routes, but expenditures, should be
' vested in the state engineer, or a com
mission. My views on the subject were
plu-ed before the last legislature in the
lollowing language:
"1 would suggest that the fall con
trol of our state highways be placed in
the hands of a road commission con
sisting of five persons serving without
. t-ay. The term of office should be five
years, the appointments being bo regu
lates tnat there would be only one
member of the board changed each
year. This would insure permanency
tit the commission and would free it
from the possibility of having Its
plans and organi.a.t Ion changed at each
gubernatorial election. The commis
, Honera should employ the state en
ineer and have full authority over the
Mate highway department, thus taking
that appointment out of politics. The
salary of the state engineer should be
fixed at a figure Insuring the best road
engineering talent available."
' tienate Bill No. 17, you will recall,
was passed and banded to me for ap
proval. The main features of the
measure were good. Had there not
een incorporated therein a provision
diverting the executive of his preroga
tive of appointment, but at the same
time holding him responsible for the
efficient conduct of the department, no
hesitancy on my part would have been
manifested In signing the bill
It was then, and still is a source of
regret to me, that the attitude assumed
was that politics should outweigh the
lcst interests of the s-tater All overtures

t-quai jn importance is the matter of
school finance. There is an increasing
realization that education is the con
cern of the state primarily and .that it
should bear a considerable share of the
burden. Arizona's law for the distri
bution of county funds is excellent in
tnat it assumes the county is respon
sible for the general maintenance of
education, and not the local districts.
The state in the past has assumed the
same attitude to a certain extent but
the discrepancy in the wealth of the
various counties has combined with the
Jack of a centralized state department
referred to above, to prevent uniform
ity of educational progress and oppor
tunity. Furthermore, both state and
county have conspicuously failed to as
sume any financial responsibility for
high school education, although state
and county contribute to elementary
school education, and the state bears
tne entire burden of normal schools and
university.
Modern conditions demand a higher
grade of preparation than formerly,
and every child has a right to the
equipment of at least a high school
education. Because lt Is relatively
much more expensive than elementary
education, and the Individ
are left to bear the burden alone, many

NEW YORK, Jan. 11 On the largest
nd most varied dealings so far this
ear, approximating 1,200.000 snares,
the stock market today strengthened
ts forward movement of Monday.
In its general aspect the' advance ap
peared largely of speculative origin.
Special shares in whicn an extensive
hort interest is believed to exist scored
thj largest gains.
Factors which again contributed to
the advance included the increased
strength of foreign exchange, albeit the
British rate was somewhat extended
o time funds, which were In more
liberal supply than at any period In
six months.
Steels, shippings, equipment and spe
cialties comprised the strongest issues,
Crucible again leading the list at a
gain of 9 points, or a fraction more
than yesterday s advance. Otherwise
gains of 2 to 5 point3 were impaired
by realizing sales and the backwardness-,
of rails, which at no time kept
pace with the general market and
closed for the most part at moderate
recessions.
Aside from some foreign municipal
issues which enhanced recent ga'ns
the bond market lacked definite trend
many popular issues reacting with th
Liberty group and convertible rails
Total sales, par value, $12,675,000. Old
United States bonds were uncharged
on call.
CHICAGO, Jan. 11 Fresh strength
developed In the wheat market today
largely as a result of foreign buy?ns
Talk of Improved domestic milling de
mand tended also to lift prices. Bulls
contended that the United States al
ready had exported too much wheat.

with our educational system. The
wrong lies, in my opinion, as I have be
fore observed, in the lack of any cen

of school funds except through the lo

future and the future of the people
and the state is a sacred trust com
mitted to our care. We can measure
up to the grave responsibility by united
endeavor, and animated by a desire to
be of constructive service, not only to
this but future generations. In this
worth-while work of empire building
we all can play a part. As your ex
ecutive it has been my privilege to in
itiate the Colorado river basin project.
The impounding of the waters of this
stream, which preliminary investiga
tion proves to he feasible, will create
millions of dollars of wealth for this
and other states. With your support
and co-operation I hope during the
next two years to secure tangible re
sults in the way of financial assistance
from the federal government and see
work commenced en the most gigantic
undertaking1 of its Und in history.
