One reason is that the governor can take credit for anything that was done during the administration, even if he just lifted a finger to help. For example, the latest release i'rom the "Garvey- for-governor" offices has the governor claiming credit for construction of the new capitol annex building, expected to completed next year. The governor, through no fault of his, knew nothing about the bill or saw the bill until it was introduced in the legislature. A group of legislators who had considered the housing problem of state departments for some time, drew up the bill and enlisted support for it unaided. The governor did do something for the program though.

He signed the bill after the legislature passed it. The same was true about the Children's Colony. This program was laid out in an orderly fashion while Garvey was still secretary of state--money for a superintendent and a survey, then money for buildings. The same is true for the state hospital and the prison building plains and mountains of Navajo county by next election. XO ACTIVITY Reason for this is that no precinct committeemen filed for office under the Republican for the primary contest--a unique situation indeed for this stamping ground of the elephant.

SHY Another oddity is that in Cochise county there are only two more Democrats registered than there were two years ago for the primary. Republican registration jumped 202 over 194S to give a total of 1,140, rivaling Republican registration in Pima county, which is more populous. Despite this increase in GOP registration, how- Sweat dripped from men's faces, glistened on arms and- soaked into fatigue garb.

A soldier came down, walking with the limber legs of a drunken man, supported by two of his comrades. His face was almost purple and his eyes were glazed and unseeing. and racks had been built to hold the stretchers.
