the Colorado. The supposition is that if the greed of the southland is there by satisfied, the north will not be in terfered with in it's development of the waters of the San Joaquin and other streams of central and north ern California.
 Some of the statements of Stewart in the Examiner rest upon an alleged interview with Arnold Kruckman, secretary of the League of the South west, who lately visited Phoenix. It is charged that there is a conspiracy among other states in the league, ex- cept Nevada, against the interests of California. and Stewart attributes the part of Arizona in the conspiracy to jealousy of the growing agricultural importance of southern California.
 When the question of developing the waters of the Colorado river came up, all of the states concerned were jealous of their rights and there was a natural suspicion of Arizona and California because of their identical interests. This was later allayed by Governor Campbell. whose broad statement of a plan bringing justice to all the states led to his selection as president of the league.
 But there was nothing then that could be done. The whole thing lay with the federal government There were certain rights of the states, but they could be adjudieated only by the federal government; it was only through the latter that a working plan could be evolved. The meetings of the league were without official sanction. The governors of the states could not bind their states to any plan that might be formulated. That could be accomplished only by legis- lation.
 At meeting of the league at Dem yer last August. the way was pre- pared for the organization of body clothed with authority to form an agreement. The general plan wa set out in the following resolution:
 Whereas, It is the understanding of this league. from information pre- sented by Hon. Arthur P. Davis, di- rector of the United States reclama- tion service, that the water supply of the Colorado river drainage is suffi- cient to supply the present and fu- sure necessities of all of the states

EXECUTIVE SAYS GREAT REASON FUR CONF F|DENCE

Led by the High School band more than 5 automobiles, many decorated to conform with the slogan, See Ari- zona First" wsnded their way through the business streets of Phoe- nix last night. The parade empha- sized in a very effective manner the enthusiasm which has been stirred by the campaign of the motor car deal CTS, with it's object of keeping the Arizona dollar at home.
 The parade left the Central school grounds at 7:30 D. m. sharp, and after completing it's tour of the business section, wended it's way back to the starting point, where a crowd esti- mated at 2000 people had gathered to hear an address by Governor Camp bell. After a selection by the band. the meeting was opened by Cal Mess her, president of the Phoenix Auto motive Dealers association. He was followed by Warren McArthur who. after brief talk on the purposes of the campaign, introduced Governor Campbell.
 The governor in opening his ad- dress paraphrased a few truisms. He stated that in this period of transi- tion a great many people were in clined to look to the future with con cern. The past three years have been spending spree" he stated

 Little do we realize how much bet ter off we are today than we were several years ago"
 The governor then spoke briefly of the financial situation, in which he stated that credit or confidence" was simply capital in motion. He drew attention to the wonderful resources of the banks of Phoenix and the state saving that even after passing through a depressing period that their resources were fully as great as they were a year ago.

Thwarted in an effort to secure all ffzs water power sites along the Col oTzsdo river in Arizona. Los Angeles citizens have raised the cry that the states of Arizona. Utah, Wyoming, and Coforado have reverted to the doctrine Of states rights as against the assumed federal if not imperial rights of southern California.
 The Los Angeles Examiner has printed a series of articles by w R. Stewart dealing with the develop r1aent of the Colorado river and the statement is made, and that becomes the basis for the charge of reasser- tion of the cocsrine of states ights, that citizens oz California represent fs.s Los Angeles, have been denied the urieSlege of filing on eight water f.osNer sites in this state.
 A committee fs to be sent from Los Angeles to Washington to see what can hc done about it that the grab ping rights of southern California may not be impaired by the other states interested in the waters O. ths Colorado.
 The facts are that some time ago various delegations representing Los Angeles called on Water Commission CT Norveil- Application was made for blanks to be used ia filing on water power sites. They wanted large numbers of blanks; they were apparently go-ng to file on all the sites in all of the states concerned. The water commissioner suggested that filings be made only on such sites as they expected to develop, but it appears that they wanted to file on all of them to prevent them rom falling into the hands of the power trust and other unworthy combina- rfunS. Later they presented filings on the eight sites in Arizona and the commissioner refused to accept them

 Much has been written about the cliff dwellings of Arizona, but the fact still remains that our archaeolo- gists are still in the dark regarding that most important item of age. In fact, estimates run all the way from 500 to 1900 years. and as long aS any one can guess without fear of con tradiction, it is the writer's guess that the 1200-year estimate is conserva- tive.

A visitor to this salesroom can in the course of half an hour secure a very realistic picture of the truly remarkable things to be found on this trip.
