Roswell Voters Read Hoover Prohibition Case
A Roswell editorial contrasts Hoover and Roosevelt in the 1952 political frame. It argues Hoover's relief actions for New Mexico, including federal funds and construction jobs, demonstrate tangible benefits, while portraying Roosevelt as aristocratic and targeting repeal of Prohibition. The piece endorses Hoover, cites local Republican candidates Arden Boellner and Roland Oliver, and urges Prohibition supporters to back Hoover to preserve the 18th Amendment.

In Roswell 1907, Dexter marked the Pecos River bridge completion with a barbecue and picnic. Speakers included Judge Jerry Cazier, Judge J. T. Evans, and Col. J. H. Eliott, with many locals and Roswell attendees listed. The event followed heavy rains that washed out 500 feet of track near Riverside and caused train delays, while Dr. C. F. Beeson donated a substantial medical library to the Carnegie Library.
