NANCE O'NE|L IN
 PASSION FLOWER'
Benavente's Great Drama Is Coming to the Jefferson
 on Monday

The forthcoming engagement of that distinguished emotional actress. Miss Nance O'Ner1. in Jacinto Bena- vente's great drama, "The Passion Flower" which comes to the Jeffer- son for two nights beginning Mon day night with matinee Tuesday. marks break in the re-today- and gone-tomorrow type of amuse- ment with which theatre goers have been regaled ever since the close of the war.
 About the time the "boys" started on the long trail "back to Hoboken' the word went forth that the public wanted something to laugh at to take it's mind off the horrors of the war, and the tip was correct then: but the success of Miss oNells ve- hicle. which is now in its third sea- son, proves that theatre lovers may still enjoy so-called serious play
 "The Passion Flower" says Miss 'O'Neil, lis serious play by a se- rious, thinking dramatist, and have put months of serious thought into the characterization of the role of Raimunda, which I consider the greatest role l have ever played
 "Benavente's work is psycho- logical study of a simple peasant people in whose veins runs the wild est Latin fire, only curbed by a strong religious superstition. The circumstances of the story mi ght well have happened anywhere, not alone in Spain, where, naturally, Benavente has laid the scenes of his masterly tale"

EverY Effort Exhausted

WASHINGTON, Mar. S1. = Con- vinced that every reasonable effort has been made to prevent national coal strike In anthracite and bitum- inous coal mines tomorrow, but be- lieving that although these efforts have been without avail, existing con ditions and surplus coal assure price protection and current supply for the general public, official Washington iaus settled back tonight to await the event with considerable calmness.
 In a, final White House discussion, it was said that the governments long negotiation with the parties to the controversy and continuous study of the industry's production volume had convinced the administration that immediate intervention, in legal or extralegal ways, would be futile and unnecessary. and that while the future might sharpen the breeach be- tween employer and employe in the mining camps, for the present even action looking to the preservation of peace was unnecessary.
 President Harding was urged to- day by delegation representing the Protestant Federal Council of Churches of Christ and the National Catholic Welfare Council to make a further attempt to get operators and miners together and to set up com mission to adjust their differences. At the White House, 1t was said that no action was advisable at this time.

 The house took Up Senate Bill 45, the financial code. Representative l. P.

A general dis cussion as to the exact meaning of the word ensued At Representative Frazier's suggestion, State Engineer Thomas Maddock was requested to explain to the house the effect Of it upon his relations with the federal government in the matter of federal aid. In the afternoon, the state engi- neer appeared and went into the ques tion, but he confined his remarks to that particular lphase. As to the er- feet of ''hereafter,p the state engineer saii that under the various federal aid acts and their amendments. states accepting federal aid are res quired by the department of agricul- ture to execute pledge that they will provide fora the maintenance of the roads so Constructed under CO., operative agreements.

 nestle consumption. Other city en- gineering officials agreed. with Nils.
 R. I. Meeker. deputy state engineer Of Colorado, who opened the techni- cal case of the state of Colorado with statement today, declared the state ' is entitleed to unrestricted use of the waters of the river in Colorado under the state constitution. He declared there was ample water in the river to irrigate the upper and lower basins for all time. Meekeer said the amount of water used on the Colorado river in Colorado for irrigation does not injre the supply of water in the low CT basin states. because any poss
 overuse above would return to the stream and flow on to the lower states
 Platte Rodgers, counsel in many ! Colorado water suits, told the commits | SlOn ne ndu never Sttn tue OCldSlOil for this commission"
 "I stand on the right of Colorado to use the waters that flow through streams to the very limit and I wont concede any other right" he declared.
 There isn't an acre in, the Imperial | Valley of California that is more en- titled to the waters of the Colorado than our own state. Nature has given us first use of the water Colorado doesn't need a commission, The law of nature has decreed we may use the water as it flows"
 Addressing himself to the commis- sioners from the lower states Rodgers declared:
 You can build your reservoirs as we had to build our in Colorado. We ! had to take the storm waters for our reservoirs. You'll have to take them just the same as we did Let the Inn perial Valley go through what we had to go through. I fail to see why Colo rado should join a compact which sur renders one drop of water"
 Chairman Hoover and Rodgers en- tered into a long discussion of the law of irrigation.
 1 Commissioner Norviel of Arizona, asked:
 '1f Colorado and Kansas had en- tered such compact as we propose to write between the states, such suit as that between the two states would have been disposed of, wouldn't it?'' ! Rodgers did not agree fully, declar- ing even after the United States su- preme court had decided the case I other cases had sprung up.
 Short talks in behalf of Wyoming's claims were made just before the hear ! ing closed by c. w Beveridge, en. gineer of the Green River (Wyoming) | Community Club, and M H. Christen- sen. contractor of Wyoming and Utah.
