WATER
CASE NEARING END

3 Last Sundays Tonopah Timessays:
The Duckwater water litigation Is
settled so far as the district court Is
concerned according to stipulation
flled in this iong-standing suit which
dates back to the time when the court
held its sessions In the old Belmont
court house. For so years the vari-
GUS contenders, including the Tog-
noni and Mendes families, have been
in and out Of the courts and mp to
the highest court in Nevada and back
again, always with the same result
that no approach t6'sa dehntts 81
tlement was reached. Lawyers have
reaped fortunes, battles have been
fought on the open range, and vari-
GUS families became involved in a
regular vendetta. Col. J. G. scrug-
ham, State Engineer, acting under
orders of the court, will make final
recommendations for adjustment Of
the difficulties after 10 days allowed
for hearing further objections. The
recommendation win include the nam
ing of a commissioner to distribute
the water to approximately 1000 ac-
res. The settlement will be instru-
mental in opening vast tracts Of land
to cultivation.

Gen. James G. Hartford presided
yesterday at Keith's Theater at the
complimentary showing of the
moving picture Alice in Hunger
land" made in the Near East last
summer. Gen. Hartford said: In
all the sections of the world where
today people are hungry, there is
none where the conditions are so
desperate as in the Near East. Hun
dreds of thousands of refugees, hun
dreds Of miles from former homes,
are without shelter or clothing or
ernments. and in fear of renewed
massaCres in some sections.
In the streets of every city in
Southern Russia. the Trans-CauCa-
STA and Armenia, hundreds die
daily. In the interior the toll of
death is unknown. The orphan sit
uation is the worst in the history
of the world. The American Near
East Relief. and help in some sec
lions from the British, is all that
stands between the remnant Chris
tian races and total determination"
Comdr. Brokenshire, u. 5. n. r.,
reported finding of restitution and
destruction when he recently Wis
tied the Near East, and that the
people were eager to work. and
had responded to every opportunity
offererd by the Near East relief.
The transformation of dying
skeletons into happy. sturdy boys
and girls was shown in the pic

To Meet Boycott on

BOMBAY, Dec. 1.-THE general
situation in India is growing far
more serious, owing to the arrests
which the government is making to
meet the boycott on the Prince of

Many natives who were apathetic
are now joining the boycott.

India to discuss the situation or
arrangements can be made for arbi-

considers the situation az growing
desperate.
There were 100 arrests in Delhi
yesterday and forty-eight in Luck

played everywhere. In Calcutta the
students have struck. One young

arrest him.
Many native leaders have been
arrested, including Nehru and Laj-
patrai. A clothing factory has been
converted into a prison, SO numerous
have been the arrests. The gov
