way commission there was some diff ference of opinion. but only as to the form of that board. All agreed that it ought to be non partisan. Mr. Kim ball, whose antipathy to state commits sions ana boards is well known, rose to remark that he would not support a resolution that would entail the ap- pointment of another expensive body. When he learned that the plan was to
 have the board paid only small per diem and expenses while actually en- gagged in the work. and that the board should consist of well known and trained business men. whose hearts would be in the work, he became a cordial supporter.
 Lamar Cobb. the state engineer. wanted to have at least two of the members of the commission to be en- gineers, but Mr. Heard explained that i the board would work in cooperation with the excellent state engineer. and l that it might be better to have just 1 business men on it. To this. the as semblv agreed. and it was finally passed, with the specification that one 1 member should be an engineer. When it came to the election of of | fieers. President T. q. Norris intercept l ed Mr. Heard as the latter was taking | his departure. and detained him until | State Engineer Cobb had surveyed the route for motion. making the Marico- pa man president. Mir.
