REPUBLICANS
MEET To FIX
THEIR FENCES
Denver Seeking to Get Conyen-
tlon to Change Rules Of
the Party.

| Associated Press
Washington, Dec. 15-The repub-
lican National Committee is arriving
here today for the conferences which
will begin tomorrow. with a view of
reorganizing the party.
The sentiment of the delegates
seems to be divided into three fac
tions. One urges the immediate call
Ing of national convention. one OPP
poses any convention at all. and one
is willing to have the convention call
ed but does net see any pressing need
for it.
The first and third groups are ex-
pected to join together the second
and the odds are said to be In favor
of the convention being called. The
forces opposed to the convention are
lining up against the proposed re-
duction in the southern representa-
tion in the regular national nominal
ting. conventions.
According to Chairman Hilles pre-
dictions the committee will probably
thresh out their differences in open
session and he advocates that all the
proposals have an opportunity to give
their arguments in public.
In addition to the members of the
committe who are expected to speak
is Ormsby McHarg, who. it is under
stood, has prepared a brief against
the right of the National Committee
to call an extraordinary convention.
Mr.. Hilles said that he is not at
tempting to use the power as chair
man for either side. and he holds the
view that II is question to be set
tied by majority of the committee.
Informal conferences were held today

Editor. The Sentinel.
Grand Junction, Colo.
My Dear Mr.. Walker:
am sending to Mr.. d. w. Aupper-
lie as the representative of the Grand
Valley Water Users association, and
enclose to you herewith copy Of MY
bill HR-10073, extending the time
and reducing the amount of annual
payments to be made by entrymen
upon reclamation projects.
You will remember that last spring
introduced bill (HR-4S68) ex-
| tending the number of annual pay
ments required under the reclamation
act from ten to thirty.
Il have recently learned that. the
secretary of the interior is willing to
extend the payments from ten to
twenty, but Is disinclined to extend
them more than 20 years. l feel
that is not sufficient relief for the
settlers. especially under number
of the thirty-two projects, where the
ultimate charge will me more than
800 an acre. My idea is that man
after ten years can pay 81 or SIS an
acre much easier than he can pay 4Oc
an acre during the first three or four
years, and / have sought to cover
that situation in this present bill by
providing that no charge whatever
shall be made for the first five years
after the water Is furnished, and
that the charge for the second five
years shall be 81 an acre, and the
third five years SO an acre, and there
after 81 per acre until the entire
payment is made. I would like to
learn the sentiment of the Water
Users Association, and the settlers
generally upon this proposition as
soon as convenient; because ! am
expecting to have conference with
the advisory board of the reclamation
service and the secretary Of the inte-
