STATES MUST AGREE BEFORE
SUITS TIED UP WORLDS
BIGGEST WATER PROJECT

PHOENIX, Aug. Sit is neon
ceivable that commissioners from the
seven southwestern states will not
agree on this, the most stupendous i'm
provement project ever conceived by
the mind OF man. said Governor
Thomas E. Campbell. commenting on
rumored dissensions over the Mondell
bill just passed 10 authorize joint de-
yelopment of the Colorado river irri-
sot;on and poyer project.
The bill. the governor explain ID
fixed 10 make il a Law.
First Step in Harmony
The first step. he said, was taken
when the legislature of the seven
states affected passed legislation re-
guessing congress to allow these
states TO enter into treaty or COM
Pact for the utilization and distribut-
ton of the Colorado river waters.
The terms Of his bill now provide
for the appointment OF commissioners
by the several states 70 meet with a
federal commissioner soon 10 enter
into the treaty or compact after dis
cussions which will extend over some
time because Of the main interests in
volved and much engineering and in
dustrial data must be discussed and
adjudicated.
"Of necessity their findings must
unanimous. Many doubtless Thomases
fear that this will be the rock upon
which the whole plan will break, but
don't think so.
The findings of this conference Will
be reported back TO the several legis-
latures for approval as a safeguard
and also will be referred 10 congress
for ratification.
Tombstone epitaph., 1921-08-14
People Safesuar5ed

Every step is planned to safeguard
the interests OF the people OF the
states concerned and likewise their
international rights as the Colorado
river is an international stream.
This is the first time in the history
Of the United States that a compact
will have been entered into by more
than two states and the first time this
class Of legislation has been obtained
in the history OF reclamation and
power
1t is the hope of the seven execu.
tiyes Of the states TO adjudicate the
state rights before litigation ties
them up with accompanying great loss
Of money and time"

mo SALE OF BONDS

Sale of Yorkville school district
bonds in the sum of $125.O0O adver-
tiscd for last Wednesday did not mat
erialize. Geo. w. Williams, secretary
of the board of trustees said yester-.
day that the bonds were not oifered
because Of some legal technicality.
He did not, however, state what that
legal technicality was.
Asked about the matter this morn.
ing J.. a. Marion, Esq, Il member OF
the board of trustees said that the
sale was postponed in order that the
trustees might have time to be in pos
ition to offer bomb proof title 10
the bonds and to clear up certain
techncalites that might arise. :.
From other sources it was learned
that the trustees did not deem it wise
to offer the bonds for sale at this time
because of general financial condl-
tions. 1t is said further that inforn1a-
ton. which the trustees had would in
dicate that the school bonds would
not bring as high n figure Just now as
the trustees had expected.
4 representative of well known
bonding company told the reporter
that his company had instructed him
not to make bid on the bonds for
The reason that they CONSIDERED TO-
tai bond issue for S137.5OO on total
property valuation of less than $780,
600 not good business proposition.
There is no indication as to when
the school bonds will be offered.

IIniform Memorial Day.

The question Of uniform memoTla
day throughout the nation is worthy Of
serious practical consideration at TINS
time, If for no other reason than to
avoid embarrassing confusion in the
future.
Memorial or decoration day had its
origin in the United States for the
honor of soldier dead of the civil war
The northern states generally have
agreed upon May 80, and the southern
states have generally agreed upon va
rious other dates.
Nav 30 is memorial day in all the
states except Alabama, Florida, Geor-
gia, Louisiana, Mississippi, North
c ,rolina, South Carolina. Tennessee
and Texas.
South Cardinals memorial day is
May 10; but no other state observes
that particular day.
The American Legion has very
naturally endorsed May 80 as its me-
mortal day.
This Of course means that the Fed
erll soldiers are to be remembered
along with the soldiers of the world
war, and that the generation which is
passing is committing the memory o'
the Federal soldiers to the keeping OF
the new generation.
It is hardly reasonable to hope thai
with two memorial days within the
same month both can be observed
with equal zeal.
While Confederates are still separate
from Fedcrals and it will probably al
ways be that way, from the nature oI
the case there will be no distinctloh
between northern and southern soldiers
Of the world war.
Why should VIC not change our pres
cnt memorial day from May 10 to Ma!
80 and let the one day suffice for Doti'
the Confederate dead and the dead ol
the world war?
The continuance of the present ar
rangcment is calculated to separate
father and son as the years go on, ano
that will not be for the best.
We can change from May 10 to May
30 without any disrespect to our Con-
federate dead
This matter should have seriou:
practical consideration.
