600 and the loan board, composed of
Gov. G. w. P. Hunt. Sidney P. Os-
born. secretary of state, and David
Johnson, state treasurer, granted the
loan of $40 an acre. The amount
proved insufficient and another loan
of $40 an acre was ASKED and grant
ed in 1919 and before this amount
was all spent 1T was found that it
would not be sufficient to finance
the dam to completion. Before ad-
vancing any additional funds in 1919
the board, made up at this time of
Gov Thomas f. Campbell, Secretary
Nit Simms and Treasurer Harry s
Ross, sent a number of prominent
engineers to pass on the dam. Among
the number were Thomas Maddox,
state engineer; Louis c. Hill, r. ).
Cookingham and Francis J.. Sellew.
who at one time had charge of the
construction of the Laguna dam at
Yuma. Each of the engineers prepared
plans and estimates of cost to COM
piete the project and the recon
mendations of Engineers Maddox
and Sellew were adopted and an add
tional loan of $25 an acre was then
granted. bringing up the total cost
to s45 an acre, or approximately $685.
600 OF this amount there remains
approximately $4,000 which will be
spent to put the canal system in
first class condition. The cost OF
placing the canals win be small and
sufficient of the $4,000 now on hand
will be left over to meet any emer-
gencies that might arise next year.
Arizona republican., 1921-05-29

The cost of the project will be pre-
paid to the state at the rate of per
cent per annum in Is years and
commencing the sixth year. in addi-
ton TO the interest, a payment of 10
per cent must be made on the prin-
cipal.
The original cost o. the dam was
increased owing to the high cost of
material and labor among other
items. The changes made by Engi-
ed greatly to the stability of the
dam
In REVISING the plans Mr.. Maddox
reduced the height of the dam five
feet and quantities correspondingly.
At the same time the reduction made
the slope of the rock facing change
greatly reducing the angle of the
slope so that the rock would be on
the angle of repose, IN order to avoid
the possibility of settlement in the
foundation destroying the rock fill
The subsequent settlement of the
southern end of the dam under con-
struction proved that this change was
vitality necessary. Mr.. Maddox in
sisted also that only selected lime
stone be used in the rock fill as
sand stone in this vicinity disinte-
CRATES within six or eight months
after being exposed to the air.
This year 1000 acres viii be placed
under cultivation and if the summer
rains are early enough so that there
will be no shortage, an additional g.,
900 acres will be placed under cult
walton before the end of the season.

UNIVERSITY OF ARIZONA. Tue
SON. Nav 29.-President Won Klein
Smid gave a powerful talk in as
sembly Tuesday in favor of the aboli
ton of haziRg on the University
campus. He said that we have
reached one of those critical mo-
ments which come to every normally
developing institution, when we can
no longer think as small school,
and quite as important, are no
longer thought of, as small school.
Last year we were represented by
IA states in the Union and II foreign
countries. He said that there has
grown a distaste for inter-class an
tagonisn, and on considerable num-
Der of campuses it is not to be de-
tected at all. The reasons for these
antagonisms still abide because
students feel that freshmen are fresh.
They need to be seasoned. They come
unused to college traditions, and the
position of teacher TO freshmen is
logically the upper classman, that
there is no way to teach a freshman
without Matchmaking him. 1t has
| never been conceived by juniors and
seniors that the only way the faculty
can teach them is by the rod.
Some action will be taken within
the next few days by the student gov
eminent dSSOC4dtlO1 IOiICSlA tldZ
| ing on the Arizona campus.

Speaking of the Northern lights in

time Mayor Willis Plunkett tossed
the first ball until Kiwanis brought
the winning runner across the plate
in the seventh inning.
The contest, which had been chlef
topic of interest among the members
of the two civic organizations Tor
several weeks, brought to the notice
of Phoenix the fact that both clubs
have a goodly number of baseball
stars and that all of them were out
for high honors yesterday. The game

conditions perfect. The grandstand
was filled with spectators. and scores
of automobiles were parked around
the playing field. while the band OF

CHECK Of ESTATE
TAX CASES BEGUN

A check on all inheritance tax
cases covering a period of five years
is being made by Raymond r. Ear
hart, state treasurer, in an effort to
discover any estates that have es-
capped taxation or where the admin
istrator has failed to notify the state
trea surer before the estate has been
settled. The check is being made in
order that action may be brought to
recover the amount of the tax with
penalties.
The inheritance tax law provides
that if the tax is not paid by the adj
ministrator before the estate is set
tied he can be held personally re-
sponsible and be held liable for the
amount of the tax
Immediately after taking office Mr..
Earhart Installed new system of in
yestigating Inheritance tax cases,
placing Neri Osborn, Jr.. at the head
of the department. Although the
work of checking requires consider
able time, two cases have already
been discovered where the tax has
been evaded and action will be
brought unless the tax is paid with
