fault VIII be entered against such
claimant or user OF warer,
The Texas companies have ten
tatively asked congress to issue
$4,000, 600 bonds to irrigate their
area and allow them to pay off
the debt in forty years from the
proceeds of their speculation and
from farms. Texas having never
having ceded lands to the federal
government has contributed moth
ing to the reclamation fund and
the national system is not applica-
BILE to that state. Claim is made
that the Pecos being an interstate
stream, Texas should have some OF
the water, regardless OF the fact
that New Mexico, the federal gov
ernment and the parties who have
bought the lands along the river
from the state and nation could use
the entire flow. Also regardless of
the fact that the federal govern
ment entered into contract to de-
liver the reservoirs which store the
Pecos water, to the users under the
Carlsbad project. who are paying
for the construction and are enti-
use below the reservoir, one Texas
company has even asked that the
government compel the release ot
reservoir water and continuous
flow in large quantity to the Bar
stow irrigation system established
after the Carlsbad project was built
by the people and taken over by
the reclamation bureau in trust for
the users.
Vernon Sullivan, formerly state
engineer of New Mexico, is the
head of Texas plans, beinp chief
engineer and vice president of. the
associated companies, some of which
are already offering farms and
shares of stock through advertise
ment in Ell Paso, on the prospect of
securing water in quantity, under
the Red Bluff plan, and Sullivan
maintains an office in Ell Paso.

TEXANS OPPOSE
GRANTING WATER
POWER PERMITS
Residents of Pecos Valley
In Lone Star State Jour-
ney to Carlsbad to Pro-
test At Hearing.
Especial Correspondence to The Journal

Pecos, Tex, July 26.-A delega.
ton of Pecos valley farmers and
business men went to Carlsbad, n
M, today TO oppose the granting
OF the water power rights from the
Pecos river at Red Bluff to Claude
III. Thorp. Mr.. Thorp has filed a
claim for these righ,s with state
engineer L. A. Gillette of New Mex
leo and the hearing is to be before
Mr.. Gillette.
The Pecos valley (Texas) resi-
dents claim that if Thorp Is grant
ed this right it will be a bar to the
erection of the proposed dam at
Red Bluff, and that failure to erect
this dam will prevent the placing
OF 10000 acres in the Pecos val
ley of Texas under cultivation.
Attorney General Cureton of
Texas sent a representative of his
office to Carlsbad to represent
Texas residents at the hearing,
while the chambers of commerce
in the valley town sent delega-
tions.
Mr.. Thorp is understood to have
declared his intention of erecting
a power plant at the site for the
purpose of furnishing power to the
valley towns.
Texas irrigation companies have
a plan to secure the privilege of
dam at Red Bluff to i'm.
pound water to run power pant
to distribute water to their lands
below Pecos, Tex. The river in
Texas has small flow at seasons
and becomes alkaline. The COM
panies have agreed to pay $4,000
10 the reclamation bureau to make
4 survey at Red Bluff, which is In
New Mexico, with a view to find
ng a suitable site for a dam. I'M
der New Mexico laws it is easier TO
secure a power site than to get ir-
irrigation rights adverse to New
Mexico claimants. If the federal
government and the state permit
he Texans to have reservoir for

Aid of police in every large city

That jealousy and revenge play
ed a part in the murder is the re-

tum, now in Birmingham, Ala.
who told police there he knew
Mrs. Leroy intimately in Detroit
several months ago. Tatum's name
was written on the trunk that con-
tanned the body. He expressed
the belief, II Is said, that Leroy
may have killed his wife through
jealousy when he learned she had
been in Tatums company and that
Tatum's name was used on the
trunk with revenge as the motive.
Detroit detectives left today for

A second trunk believed to con-
