SECTION FOREMAN NO
 RACE SUICIDE EXPONENT

F. T. Thompson, of Los Angeles, as- sistant tax agent of the Santa Fe rail road, who met here with the coun- ty board of equalization, says that at Yucca, a main line station in Mohave county, there are l4 children of school age in the school district. Ten of them are the children of the section foreman.
 The school authorities there have decided that they must have an $S,000 school house. The Santa Ee owns about 30 per cent of the taxable prop erty in the district. The chances are, Thompson says, that the railroad will have a new foreman there.
 The latter, some of his children be- ing old enough for high school, has asked for a transfer to another place where there is one. But the company, fearing it will be believed that the transfer was made simply to defeat the plans for the new school building, has so far refused to allow the trans fer,

In the office of the adjutatnt general now are record cards covering the ser vice of about 12, 900 Arizona men in the army, navy and marine corps. The mere listing of this number, alphabet ically, in book form, will take about 500 closely printed pages.
 There Is to be especial mention of those who died on the field of battle or in the service, and of those upon whom special honor were conferred. It is proposed also to give due recogni- tion to the voluntary and loyal service that was given during the war, in such organization as the Council of Defense and Red Cross, by the men and wom-

CLOSE DEAL TO PURCHASE
 700 FEEDER STEERS

Purchase of 700 head of steers from the Beaver Creek Cattle Growers as- sociation of the Mogollon by Wayne Thornburg of the Diamond Two ranch was announced upon MT. Thornburg's return to Prescott from the Beaver creek district where he went recently with A. H. Favour to close the deal.
 While the price paid for the steers has not been given out, it is under stood that the cattle sold for the high est price paid for steers so far this season. This was mainly due to the fact that the cattle purchased are considered to be one of the best herds of feeders in the southwest, and are in particularly fine condition.
 The 700 steers purchased by Mir. Thornburg comprise all of the cattle held for sale by the Beaver Creek as sociation. Deliveries are slated for October at Flagstaff, from which point the steers will be shipped to California,-Prescott Courier.

PHOENIX WOMAN ELECTED
 HEAD OF LEGION AUXlLIARl

Mrs. Henry Miller, of Phoenix, was elected the first president of the state wonian's auxiliary of the American Legion. Her election followed stren- uous contest between delegates from Phoenix, Tucson and Prescott over the division of offices in the new organiz- ation.
 Other officers selected were as fol- lows: Vice president, Mrs. s. H. Bow yer, of Tucson; Secretary, Mrs. D. A. Little, of Florence; Treasurer, Mrs. Frank Lun, of Globe.
 Chaplain, Mrs. Elizabeth Temple, of Kingman.
 Historian, Mrs. E. J. Ristedt, of Globe.
 The membership of the executive committee was divided according to districts. One member was elected from each of the three districts, northern, southern and central. The members are Mrs. Frank Curtis, of Flagstaff, Mrs. H. T. Southworth, of Prescott, and Mrs. B. W. Freudenthal, of Safford.
 Delegates to the national conven- ton of the auxiliary we. . named as follows: Mrs. Percy Dubois, of Kingman; Mrs. Allen Love, of Pres colt; Mrs. H. A. Yinesby, of Oatman; Mrs. Garrett, of Yuma, and Mrs. Francis A. Morse, of Flagstaff.
 The auxiliary selected Douglas as its next meeting place, as did also the American Legion of Arizona. The conventions will be held the third week in September, next year.

 After seeing what Tanlac has ac- complished in my wife's case, I am convinced that it is a medicine of great power and extraordinary merit. l do not think I have ever seen any thing give such prompt results.

stream, making possible the repeated use of the water for power purpose through chain of power houses, which may eventually be seven in number, developing 4000, ,0O0, 900 horsepower.
 "The present demands for power in Southern and Central California are a little more than 50O,0O0 horsepower, in addition to which there are press ing demands for new developments in the bordering states. The sum of these demands is, however, not sufficient to immediately absorb two large develop ments, and duplicate investment of many millions of dollars in parallel lines. Therefore, in order to secure the most economic development from all standpoints, including flood control, irrigation, power and lowest rates, with good service to the people, the project must be considered as a whole, and the power developments made in such units as the market will absorb. Under parallel construction the inter- est on idle investment would be so great as to seriously delay, if not to completely jeopardize the whole de- velopment.
 Because of the size of the under taking, and its unquestioned tremen- dous benefits to all in the southwest territory, complete understanding and earnest cooperation on the part of the people is necessary to insure it's development at an early date. Mis- understandings result only in delay"

EXPLAINS EDISON COMPANIES PLANS FOR
 BIG COLORADO RIVER PROJECT

during which time the worlds records were constantly broken, in building one of the largest power developing and transmission systems in the world, has so trained our executive and en- gineering forces that they do not look with apprehension upon the difficulties which must be overcome in making this enormous development, probably the greatest in the world.
 Bankers Attracted.
 "The growth of water power devel- opment in popular favor, and the con- tinuous success in financing our prop critics over period of twenty years has attracted to our projects some of the largest and most successful invest ment bankers in the country, who may be relied upon to provide the funds for the purchase of bonds, and to dis tribute these bonds to the individual investors throughout the entire coun- try, thus insuring more than two thirds of the cost of the project. The remaining part of the cost is to be secured through the sale of dividend paying stock in the enterprise, to the people generally through the entire southwest, along lines exactly similar to those being followed successfully by our company. The actual ownr- ship of the project will be by the peo- pie at large through the sale to them of capital stock; thus vesting the own ership in the people served.
 With the granting of the final states permits and Federal Power commission authority, we will be in a position immediately to begin con struction work on the project. The whole project will be developed under d fifty-year license from the Federal Power commission, by the terms of which the government would retain the right to take over the property as a going concern at the end of the per iod by paying only the actual invest ment.
 Great Possibilities.
 The potential power possibilities of the Colorado river are very great, and all of this power may be developed under our proposed cooperative plan of associating with us in the manage ment and retail distribution, power companies through the entire area to be served, comprising all or parts of seven states.
 "The millions of horse power of cheap water power to be developed would be distributed to consumers un- der public regulation of state and of the government itself, without dis crimination as between individual con- sumers or communities. No one is in a position at this time to saw how low these rates will be, but regulation per- mits of only reasonable interest re- turn upon the investment, retaining for the sole benefit of the rate payers the lower cost of construction and more efficient operation under initia- tive.
 "Our project provides for complete control of the river from the stand point of flood protection and irrigation and locates the dam high up on the
The Coconino sun., 1921-08-19

That the Colorado river project as planned by the Southern California Edison Co. must be developed first from the standpoint of flood control, second irrigation and third, power, is the announced policy of the company as made known in a statement issued by John B. Miller, it's president, which statement has been filed with the state water commission.
 This company has filed application on number of dam sites on the Colo rado, which if utilized, will aid in the control of the flood waters, and will not interfere in any way with the use of the water for reclamation. The project represents the greatest engin- eering feat ever undertaken, the esti- mated expenditure being $500 900 900 or double that of the Panama canal. The consummation of this great pro- ject, it Is conceded, will be of incal- culable value to Arizona and the entire southwest.
 w. s. Norviel, state water commis- sioner, is now in Los Angeles where he has been in conference with rep resentatives of the company and where also he has been conducting an in vestigation as to the plans of the City of Los Angeles, which is desirous of obtaining power rights for it's own use. The alleged aim of Los Angeles to gobble up all power rights for it's exclusive use has raised a storm of protest from the outside communities in California who are now enlisting the support of Arizona and other states comprising the League of the Southwest in a movement to reserve these rights to interests pledged to give all concerned a square deal.
 No action has been taken by the state water commissioner except to re- ceive for filing the applications of the Southern California Edison Co.,, and the only permits issued are of tenn porary nature to allow preliminary surveys and investigations as to the depth to bed rock, etc. These and oth- CT engineering problems will take at least year and half to complete.
 In the meantime the Southern Calif ornia Edison Co. lays it's cards on the table, face up, in President Miller's statement, which reads as follows: I
 Millers' Statement.
 We are in position to meet the de- mands of states bordering the Coloro- rado, affording them the protection they are entitled to and meeting the requirements of the Imperial Valley and neighboring lands, without cost to them, except in so far as they individ- ually desire to join with us as stock holder partners.
 "The project must be developed from the standpoint, first of flood con trol, second irrigation, and third, pow CT development. Fortunately there is no conflict between these interests, as a proper development of the Colorado river will insure adequate provision for control, irrigation and power.
