Speaking OF the development of the
Colorado. Mr. Maxwell said that the
position OF Arizona is almost a critica.
one; ,ha; il is possible now for it TO
max. a mistake that can never be re-
paired: to be cut off for ever from the
beneficial use of the waters of the Col
orado. The danger of that. he believ-
ed, would be increased by entering
into any agreement under the federal
commission for the disposition of the
waters OF the Colorado especially any
agreement giving to the lands in Mex
leo rights TO the watSr. Once those
rights are granted or once they are
taken by the use of the water on those
lands they will be lost to Arizona.
Power Dam = Fact
And that may come much sooner
than the construction of dam al
Boulder Canyon or elsewhere, for the
impoundins of the flood waters for the
irrigation 1t is possible that dams
will be built for power purposes and
tba. will give a measure of control

fore Arizona has made preparation 10

There is good deal of talk now
OF the comfy of nations and of the
rights OF Mexico in the flood waters
of the Colorado. Mexico is not really
concerned. At any rate. it is not Mex
leo that is asserting these rights. All
the lands TO which these waters could
possibly be applied are in the owner

this country but who stand to make
millions out of those lands if Colorado
water rights are secured.
