Tucson faces growing needs as downtown and outlying areas expand. City county and school district officials plan major capital programs and bond elections within 12 to 18 months to fund streets sewers water development public buildings and enlarged courthouse space. Public readiness and full disclosure will help secure voter approval.
The piece argues traffic relief ideas for Tucson including banning left turns at major intersections and along arterial streets, enforcing cross double lines, and eliminating curb parking on main thoroughfares like Sixth Street. It notes existing street projects and praises the Broadway subway while noting its limited effect.
Editors publishers and tourists mingle with Washington insiders to assess Lyndon Johnson’s appeal and Goldwater’s strength.

Ezra Bartlett’s business stood about 100 feet from the current location as encroaching development pushed the Davises to move twice, the second brick mansion fronted by two-story columns on North Stone Avenue near the Daily Citizen building. The Parker Kerr Mortuary has since been removed for a parking lot.
The column argues that Sen Magnuson and Rep Harris delay a debate bill to force Johnson into a choice by withholding the bill. It suggests the tactic protects or pressures the president depending on his decision while noting other leaders would welcome debates.
