The Kansas Colorado water
commission was in session all
OF last week in Denver taking
testimony on behalf of Colorado
in the famous water suit. This
week the members OF the commits
sion visited Canon City and the

water suit at the Capitol building.

that during the years when there
was ample water in Kansas there
were unusually heavy storms in
