MEASUREMENT OF THE FLOW
 OF THE COLORADO RIVER

The development of the agricultur- al, water power, and other resources and the construction of works to pre- vent floods in the drainage basin of Colorado River offers problems of na- tional and international as we'll as To- cal and State interest, for the basin has an area of 244,000 square miles and includes parts of seven States and of Mexico. As all such development in the basin is primarily limited by the quantity of water available, relia- ble stream-flow data showing the to- tai annual discharge of the river and it's distribution through the year and through the drainage basin are needed for the proper consideration of the problems involved, among which are the effect of the use of the water on the interests of the several States or | of the United States, the location and design of hydraulic structures, and the administration and operation of hydraulic works.
 A study of the information now on hand indicates that the principal needs can be met by accurate records of the flow of the river taken at twelve base gauging stations, six on the main river and six on the principal tribu- taries. In addition to these base sta tons secondary stations will doubtless be needed for the solution of special problems. The base stations on the main stream are Yuma, Topock, Boulder Canyon, Bright Angel, Lees Ferry, and Cisco. The stations on the tributary streams are on the Green San Juan, Little Colorado, Virgin, Williams, and Gila.
 For the purpose of coordinating stream gazing in the Colorado River basin and obtaining the data requir- ed, the United States Geological Sur vey proposes to cooperate with all those who are interested in the devel- opment of the basin in establishing and maintaining these base stations according to standards that will yield records of the highest type. These standards will require that the sta tions be equipped with water-stage re- corders and measurement cables.
 In studying the water resources of the United States the Geological Sur Vey maintains offices in twenty-two districts and three subdistricts. Four of these districts lie in part within the Colorado River drainage basin, as fol- lows:
 Arizona: Roger c. Rice, district en- gineer, 103 Agricultural Building, Uni versity of Arizona, Tucson, Arizona.
 Colorado, Wyoming, and New Mex lco: Robert Follansbee, district engi- neer' 4o3 Post Office Building, Denver, Colo.

D|SCL 0SE PLAN
ON PREPARATIONS
American Commission, Would
Determine German Ability
to Pay Allied Nations

WASHINGTON, Dec. 21-(By the
Associated Press A plan under
which an American commission, would
determine how much Germany should
be required to pay the allies in rep
arations has emerged from the effort
to find way for extending Ameri-
cans aid toward solution of the econ
omic troubles of Europe.
Although discussions of the propos-
al have been kept thus far outside the
formal channels of diplomacy, the ex-
change of views has developed thor
ough understanding in authoritative
circles that the United States, Great
Britain and Germany are willing to
assent to the creation of such COM
mission.
The plan now is before Premier
Poincare of France and he is expected
to make a decision after conference
with industrial leaders of his own
country and of Germany. 1t is as.
sumed that it will be communicated
later to all the nations interested in
reparations payments.
Officials of the Washington govern
ment today refused to discuss the
plan for an American commission
Secretary Hughes, however, issued a
statement saying that the govern
ment" had presented no proposal" or
the subject.

CHICAGO, Dec. 21.-Fire this af-

Within a little more than an hour
after a traffic policeman saw smoke
issuing from the roof, the flames
swept through the thirty eight year
old brik and wood structure, one

body of an old man, bullet through

gone, lay beside him.
Neither of the men spoke, but as

CONCENTRATOR
To Be PLACED
IN READINESS
Five Hundred Men to Be Put
on at Hill and Mill by
Early Summer-Beckett
SURPLUS NOW NORMAL
P. D. General Manager States
Demand for Copper Better
Than in Many Months
SURPLUS NOW NORMAL

Announcement was made yesterday
from the office of the General man.
ager of Phelps Dodge Corporation
at Bisbee that preparations are to
proceed for the resumption of Sac
ramento Hill steam shovel opera
tions as well as milling operations
at the Copper Queen concentrator
near Warren.
Beckitt, in discussing the announce
ment, advised that. while neither in
volume nor price were the present
copper sales such 3s to give occasion
for any undue optimism, yet the
amount of copper sold in recent
months had been satisfactory and
warranted the production of a limited
amount of additional copper in the
near future from Phelps Dodge Cor
poration properties.
Our copper surplus has been re-
duced TO normal proportions" p"
Beckett said, "and there appears at
the present time TO be a healthier
and steadier demand foS the metal
than for some time past. The re-
sumption will be slow on account
of the time necessary to get the
Hill and mill organizations together,
as well as the completion which still
needs finishing touches to the
equipment, such as installing small
parts, the putting on of belts, the
trying out of all machinery and the
building OF launders, etc. The next
few months of the Sacramento Hill
work will consist largely of drilling
the benches, and it is not expected
that actual ore production can be
commenced before next May or June.
The units of the mill will be. started
up as called for by the supply of
ore from the steam shovel operations
Men will be put on gradually and it
will be the early summer before the
full number of approximately 500
men needed for ore extraction, waste
stripping and mill operations will
be used.
At the Douglas reduction works
there will be no change in the pres
ent scale of operations till the con-
centrates from the Warren mill
commence TO arrive, at which time
it will be necessary to blow in one
or two more additional blast furnaces
TO take care of increased tonnage
When that time comes, the monthly
production of the Douglas reduction
works will probably be in the neigh
boorhood of 100000 pounds pei
month including Morenci concen
trates against the present monthly
output of 9.OOO.OOO,OOO pounds"

to the acting, he playfully pointed
pistol he had picked from a dresser
at the little gypsy. There was
shot. The little girl fell. When the
police came, grandpa was holding
Emma, the little gypsy in his
arms. She was dead.
The man standing by the grave
saw the drama again, and he saw
grandpa as he had been since that
day, moody, brooding, thoughtful.
Even a day or two ago grandpa,
no longer just plain Ernest Fuchs,
had glanced in the windows of the
toy shops, more than ordinarily rich
with Christmas gifts.
Then the man by the grave saw
grandpa, leaving the house yester-
day for visit to Green Lawn cem-

ing at the grave, leaned over and
softly touched his fathers cold hand.

REPORT STATES
BODIES Of LOST
AV|ATORS FOUND
Unable to Secure Definite
Information Regarding
Reported Discovery
INDIAN REPORTS FIND.
Authority of Rumor Seems
Doubtful; Declares Search
Made Over Location

NOGALES, Ariz., Dec. 21.-Colonel
A. ]. McNab, in command of opera
tions in the Nogales sector in the
search for Colonel Francis c. Marshall
and Lieutenant c. L. Webber, missing
army aviators, said tonight that he
had been unable to secure any definite
information concerning the reported
the Papago Indian reservation, rs
miles west of Tucson.
Two reports today fixed the place
where the bodies were found in two
different sections of the reservation
one at Indian Oasis, southwest of
on the road to Ajo, almost due west
from Tucson and north of Indian
Oasis. According to both reports the
charred bodies were found in the
wreckage Of a burned airplane.
According to the first of these re-
ports, the bodies were found by a cow
boy; according to the second, by an
Indian who told his story in Tucson
last night and then was accompanied
to the scene of the reported discovery
by a search party in an automobile.
Colonel McNab stated that he had
talked to the chief of police and other
authorities in Tucson over the long
distance telephone but that he had
been unable to find anyone who had
actually seen or talked to the mys-
terious Indian, although several said
they had heard of him and his story.
Colonel McNab said that he had not
received. voluntary information from
any source concerning the discovery
of the bodies but that he had made
a neffort to verify the reports which
reached him indirectly.
According to Colonel McNab, air.
planes engaged in the search for the
missing aviators landed at Indian
Oasis on more than one occasion and
that it had been learned that plane
was seen in that vicinity the day the
aviators were lost. He said, however,
that the aviators believed they had
traced the movements of this plane
farther south and the discovery led to
the extension of the search into
Mexico.
One airplane which is still stationed
at Nogales will probably be sent to
