picturesque part in the ceremonial at the
graveside Of the unknown" American
soldier in Arlington on Armistlce day
The Secretary of Var has under CON

Joseph K. Dixon, secretary Of the
National American Indian Memorial As

cur aboriginal fighting men to the latest
American hero Of war.
Washington newspapers are having q
merry time trying to give Admiral Beatty
his right name and title. One attempt
ran the full garnGt Of titu1ar possibilities.
Formally and fully the bull dog of Jut-
land is known as Admiral of the Fleet
tie Earl Beatty" When he called on
King George at buckingham Palace the
day before he sailed for the United
States, that is the way the court circular"
described him. After the British sailor
nan thus once has been entitled 1t is
proper to refer to him merely as Admiral
Beatty" as Earl Beatty" or as "Loru
Beatty" Beatty, incidentally, is pro-
nounced as if spelled "Boety," not
"Baty."
Recrudescence of renorts that the S1o,-
100000 allied debf is likely to be a
subject of discussion at the armament
conference lends significance to the
selection Of Signor Carlo Schanzer as
head OF the Italian delegation Italy
owes the United States the sum of
81, ,666, ,6O0, goo, not including interest since
November 1920. SignOr\ Schanzer has
been finance minister OF Italy twelve or
fourteen years. In private life he is one
of the great captains of industry anu
commerce and generally looked upon as
ltaly's greatest financial genius. One OF
his noted 'prOmOtiCns" was the famous
Fiat automobile organization. Of Jewish
origin, Signor Schanzer probably will be
the only representative of his race to sit
In the Washington conference as major
delegate.
Women have carried another first-line
trench in Washington, through their

citadel OF aristocracy, wealth end high

the first time in its history thrown its
doors open regularly to women by estab-
Eshing dining room into which men,

The telegram of Commissioner Spry of the general land
office to Governor Carey in the matter of the Sierra Madre Carey
act project is certainly reassuring. In so many words the COM
missioner asserts that it is not the intent of the general land
office to hold that there is insufficient water in the North Platte
to irrgate the lands in all proposed projects, provided sufficient
storage is furnished for such projects. The commissioner also
gives assurance that the state will be given all the time necessary
the request of the governor to delay action until "such time as you
can meet with us in Washington is granted"
Commissioner Spry is a western man, formerly governor of
our neighboring state of Utah, and must have the interests of the
west at heart. He knows the conditions that exist in this Rocky
Mountain region and is fully aware of the necessity for the fullest
use of all our rivers and streams. Utah is in the same boat with
Wyoming so far as aridity is concerned and the leading men of
that state have knowledge of the fact that the use of water on
the upper reaches of streams detracts very little from the flow
lower down. The meadows and fields of the mountains act as
storage reservoirs from which the return flow seeps gradually
back to the water courses and is used again and again until it
passes beyond the region of irrigation.
1t is fortunate that this issue has been raised at the present
time, right in the beginning of the new administration. 1t will
give opportunity to thresh the entire question out and bring to
the attention of the general land office and the interior depart
ment the large area of land that may be reclaimed between the
Nebraska line and the head of The North Platte river:
ton Immediately after the meeting of the governors in the League
of the Southwest at Denver. State Engineer Emerson and Land
Commissioner Baker will go with him and the fullest information
will be placed at the disposal of Commissioner Spry and Secretary
Fall. The secretary of the interior is also a western man of wide
experience in irrigation and water rights.
1t is not too much to hope that our officials will return home
with the assurance that the state will be given every reasonable
consideration in the allowance of water rights for Carey act pro-
iects and that the people of the Platte valley will be permitted to
go ahead with their efforts to reclaim their desert lands.-State
Tribune.
