CHA BEND PROJECT
 WEARS REALIZATION
Special to The Review.)

CHA BEND, May 19.-After many months of negotiation, the heav- jest real estate transaction in the history of the state was consum- mated yesterday in which F. A. Gill lespie and his son, B. A. Gillespie, ac- quired 72,000 acres of land near Gila Bend and the property of the Gila Water company of which latter, Judge c. F. Ainsworth was the principal owner M J. Murphy was the holder of an option on the land from the Santa Fe Railroad company, which some years ago had laid Moki scrip on it.
 The details of the transaction have not been fully made public, but it is understood that not less than $1,000,- 900 was involved in it. The promoters of the deal were MT. Murphy and w. T. Smith. The elder Mir. Gillespie is an oil magnate of Oklahoma. His son has for some time been a resident of the city, with offices in the Gooding building.
 Canal and Damsite Included
 The property of the Gila Water con- pany consists of about 40 miles of canal and a damsite near Gila Bend, the site of the old Wolfley dam con structed in 1923
 About 30 years ago Lewis Wolfley, former governor of Arizona, under the Harrison administration, organized the Gila Bend Reservoir & Irrigation company for the purpose of reclaim ing a large area of desert land along the lower Gila. He interested in the project a group of Peoria, Ills, cap italists who had already become inter- ested in the Salt River valley, among them the late J. B. Greenhut, the we'll known distiller and later New York merchant, whose death occurred few months ago.
 A canal 40 miles in length was con structed and the dam, which was then perhaps the most extensive artificial reservoir in the west, was nearly fin ished in 1893, when it was washed out bya flood. Repairs were made but again the dam went out.

VIRGINIA PEARSON IN
 THE LOVE AUCTION
 AT EAGLE TODAY

A tense drama exposing the seamy side of certain circles of society is presented in the story of "The Love Auction,' "a William Fox photoplay which is coming to the Eagle theater today. It is the story of poor girl who married a millionaire she did not love, but whom she thought she could be happy with and learn to love. Vir- ginia Pearson is the star.
 The young wife discovers that her husband is a chronic drinker, and that he had come by the habit through heredity. He neglects her. Forced to seek outside of her home for relief from her misery, she comes in contact with a former sweetheart-a man she loved, but rejected because he was poor. The old love is awakened in her, and the couple are thrown to- gether constantly, because of the hus- bands neglect A child is the resuir. A blackmailing cult leader attempts to use his knowledge of the lapse in order to possess the wife. What en- sues is said to be told in a way that conveys many a thrill. Adv.

GRAIN MARKETS

CHICAGO, May 19.- Unwelcome rain together with higher quotations on hogs strengthened today the corn market The finish, although unset tied, was at IFS to 2% cents Advance, with July ..1.61H to $1.611s and Sep tember $1.55as to $1.551a. Oats gained B to 7s cents and provisions 12c to 75 cents.
 Corn traders acted foIi the most part on the assumption that wet weather would retard the crop move ment as well as delay planting. At the same time strength in the hog market show that the feeding value of corn was agaiI bullish factor. Be sides country offerings to arrive were small and the visibl esupply decreas- ed to total of less than one-quarter of the aggregate year ago. Oats sympathized with the formness of corn. In addition, export sales of 100000 bushels were noted, and a de cided falling off in the visible supply.
 Word that vessels had been desig- hated for June and July shipments of provisions helped to lift provisions. On the bulge, however, stockyard in terests turned sellers.

STOCKS AND BONDS
BY REVIEW LEASED WIRE


 NEW YORK, May 19.-Trading on the stock exchange today was influ- enced to a large extent by the open ing of the extra session of congress, to which the financial community looks for early relief, and an unusual demand for several of the more pop ular shipping shares.
 Rails, oils and some of the many industrials and unclassified special ties also participated, but heavy sell ing, presumably for profits, effected a general reversal later.
 The first selling movement centered around American International and Canadian Pacific, and equipments, but was followed by a sharp rally. In the final hour offerings assumed wider dimensions embracing United States Steel and affiliated industrials.
 There was a counter demonstration in Texas company and Mexican Pc troleum while the rest of the active list was sagging, the market showing a confused and irregular tone at the close. Sales amounted, to 1,55O,O0O shares.
 Monetary conditions were unchang- ed, little or no time funds being of fered, while call loans. ruled at 514 per cent.
 The bond market was firm, low grade rails being in demand. Changes in domestic and war flotations were nominal. Total sales, par value, az gregated s1O,7O0,OGO. Old United States bonds unchanged on call

" | do not now say that the time has not come
when, in the interest Of future peace, the American
people may not decide that we ought to guarantee
the territorial integrity of the ~far2flung British en-
pire, including her self-governing dominions and col
onies, of the Balkan States, of China, OF Japan, or
of the French, Italian, and Portuguese colonies In Al
RIGA; but l do suggest that it is a very grave, a very
perilous promise to make, because there is but one
way by which such guarantees, if ever invoked, can
be maintained, and that way is the way of force
whether military or economic force, 1t matters not.
If we guarantee any country on the earth, no matter
how small or how large, in its independence or It's
boundaries, that guarantee we must MAINTAIN at any
cost when our word is once given, and we must be IN
constant possession of fleets and armies capable of
enforcing these guarantees at a moments notice.
There is no need of arguing whether there is. to be
compulsive force behind this league. 1t is there IN
article 10 absolutely and entirely by the mere fact
of these guarantees. The ranks of the armies and
the fleets of the navy made necessary by such
pledges are to be filled and manned by the sons, nus
bands, and brothers of the people of America. l
wish them to carefully consider, therefore, whether
they are willing to have the youth OF America or
dered to war by other nations without regard to
what they or their representatives desire. | would
have. them determine after much reflection Wnetner
they are willing to have the United States forced
into war by other nations against her own Will. Ihey
must bear in mind constantly that we have but one
vote in the executive council, only one vote IN the
body of delegates, and a majority OF the votes rules
and is decisive.
81 am not here to discuss the constitutional ques-
ton of the sole right of congress to declare war. Ihat
is a detail, as it relates only to the constitution, which
we may decide later. In my own opinion, we shall be
Obliged to modify the constitution. l do not think,
and | never can admit, that we can change or modify
the constitution by a treaty negotiated by the pres
ident and ratified by the senate. L think that must oe
be done. and can only be done, in the way prescribed
by the constitution itself, and to promise to amend
our constitution is a serious task and a doubtful un-
dertaking."

REASONS ARE GIVEN
FOR LEAGUE ATTACK
Cause Endless Trouble and Abrogate
American Rights are Senator's
Views.

Washington, March 24.-Reasons
for the opposition in the senate to
the covenant of such a league of ma
lions. as advocated by President Will
son may, as the result of the debate
which began before adjournment and
has since continued on the stump
throughout the country, may be sum-
med up as follows:
Because it yields American sover-
eighty to an executive council in
which il would be outvoted by ma
| tions whose interests might be dia-
metrically different.
Because it is a clever plan, ad-
hitted by the President at the White
House dinner to have been conceived
by England, for maintaining the
status quo established at Versailles.
Because it is incompatible with the
competitive struggle of history and
nature which necessitates change and
development rather than fixity of
condition.
Because it upholds kings and IN
perors and does not grant ~self-deter-
mination and liberty to Ireland, In
dia, Korea or any other dependency.
Because it makes the United States
already overburdened with taxation,
the almoner of the world and gives it
tasks in Europe and Africa which
would lead to conflict with the aims
of other powers.
Because it makes complete u en-
tanglement in foreign politics without
giving the world more liberty or com
~pensating us for loss Of full nation
atty and individuality.
Because it invalidates the Monroe
doctrine, which p~resupposes our non
Interference in Europe just as we in
sist that Europe shall not interfere
in this hemisphere.
Because it prevents the armed pro
lection of our rights and interests II
turbulent Mexico in the event of ser
ious menace to our citizens there.
Because it would wear down the
economic barriers erected by Ameri
ca to protect its standards of Labor
and of living.
Because, as admitted by the Presi
dent at the dinner to the Foreign Al
/, fairs Committees, ii does not actual.
prevent future vars.
Because it is in effect a continue
ton in perpetuity of the present ALI
ance of the nations which tough

= us in the future to act together to con
t troll the world, something contrar
8 to the warning of Washington and re
pugnant to the spirit of our institu
