McGREGOR DISCUSSES RIVER PROBLEMS
Claims Arizona Interests Should Have Priority

the reason that it's development would
divert a certain amount OF water from
the Elephant Butte dam on the Rio
Grande, under which project the land
is already developed up to the avail
aDie water supply. Many other SIM
liar cases may be cited.
1T is believed by many that when
these cases are finally settled, the
right of priority will be recognized, at
least 10 some extent, especially when
the prior use corresponds with the
more profitable Or economic use as it
probably will in most cases.
with these experiences in mind,
the people IN the upper states of the
Colorado river basin have noted the
agitation on the lower river for dam
and river control, and they fully real
lze the merit OF the development and
realize that with the rich lands avail
able for reclamation and the long
growing season of the southwest, all
the available land will be quickly
brought under cultivation, and they
fear tnat this prior use of the water
below may prevent the subsequent de-
velopment OF reclamation projects OF
the upper basin, it may bring on ex-
pensive litigation. This apprehension
in the minds of the people of the up
per states is responsible for the legis-
lation in the seven interested states
and in the congress of the United
States authorizing the organization of
the Colorado River Commission for
the purpose OF negotiating an agree.
ment providing for an equitable di-
vision and apportionment among said
states of the water supply of the Col
orado river and OF the streams trib-
utary thereto. 1t is provided that for
such an agreement or compact to be
binding, it must be ratified by the
legislatures of all the interested states
and by the congress of the United
States.

Describes Meeting.

This Colorado River Commission,
composed OF a commissioned from
each of the seven interested states
and Mr.. Hoover representing the in
terestS of the United States, recent,,
met in Washington. After the organ
ization formalitIes were over, a can
vass was made of the land in the
basin now under cultivation and the
land yet available for irrigation. The
representatives of the various states
putin claims Tor possible avaifabf
lands in the basin which, IN the aggre-
gate, would require about so per cent
more than the available water. .Dl-
rector Davis was called in and said
that many of the claims were unrea-
sonable and that he was fully con
WINGED, from the studies made by his
department. that there - ere than
water enough for all
From the many remarks | head
at the meeting, | believe MIR. Davis Is
right, and | believe he may be able
to convince the members OF the COM
mission TO that effect later on. How
ever, | think it Will likely be GiIn
cult to draw up an agreement that
would be ratified by all the states
that would restrict any particular
state to the use of a specified max
imum amount of water. 1t is possible,
OF course, and may be accomplished.
Il believe if the government Is per-
mltted to undertake the project, ii
may be necessary to avoid the active
opposition OF the upper states in con-
eress. This l believe can only be ac-
complished by safeguarding their fu-
ture rights as fully as possible.

Bituminous Coal
Strike Is Ended

The Pittsburg Coal Producers AS
sociation last night accepted terms
of the Cleveland agreement and sign
ed a supplementary agreement with
the United Mine Workers organiza-
tion Immediately to reopen 81 mines
employing more than 10000 men.
This action practically ended the
strike of miners in the bituminous
field, which began April l..
The 1920 union wage will be rees-
tablished. The operators agreed to
attend the joint conference at Cleve-
land October 2, where a new wage
scale to become effective after March
81. will be discussed.
Since the Cleveland conference,
which marked the beginning of the
end of the bituminous coal strike,
companies, large and small, have
fallen into line with one exception.
The Pittsburg Coal Company has re-
fused to discuss any settlement pro-
posal which included the checkoff
and this organization resigned from
the coal producers association.
The Pittsburg Coal Company is
operating a number of mines on a
reduced scale with non-union labor.
According to district officials of
the United Mine Workers, the settle
ment reached with the Pittsburg pro-
ducers association means that 80 per
cent of the $4,000 miners who went
on strike have been authorized to re-
turn to work.

Retailers Will
Pay Gas Tax

Charges that gasoline wholesalers
throughout the state had been fail
ing to pay the one-cent gallon gas
oline tax at the rate of 5000, 900 a
year, we're made by Rainey T. Wells,
chairman of the state tax commits
sion. AS a result the commission is
sued order that after September 1
the tax would be paid by the retail
ers instead of the wholesalers and
took other steps designed to check
on the payment of the tax which goes
into the state road fund
The gasoline tax law was passed
by the 1920 general assembly. 1t
provided that the county clerk in
each county must execute a special
bond for the tax, that each retailer
must register and that each whole
saler must report once a month the
names of its customers and the
number of gallons sold to each. Re-
tailers must report the number of
gallons sold and pay to the county
clerk one cent gallon and the clerks
must remit this to the state auditor.
For the past Is months" said Mr..
Wells, "the wholesalers have been
permitted to pay the tax for the re-
tailers, including it in the wholesale
price. The retailer has been relying
on the wholesaler paying the tax.
But the wholesalers have not always
been doing this, we find.
I'VE have caught several whole
salers who failed to remit this tax
and in the last thirty days have re-
covered $1,000. At the rate they were
going the state would lose 100000 a
year.
"The commission will check the
books of every wholesaler doing bust
ness in the state within the next for
ty days. Those found not to have
paid the tax will be prosecuted. The
penalty for failure to pay the tax is
20 per cent of the unpaid tax and at
torney's fees, besides fine of $50 to
5000 for each sale on which the tax
is not paid"
Chairman Wells said that the COM
mission would call for reports from
the county oil inspectors on the num-
ber of gallons they have passed upon
and also would check freight ship
ments received by each retailer.

Gas Well Shot

The Thirteen Oil and Gas Co. shot
it's initial well in Powell county yes
terday, which was brought in some
weeks ago, and it is said to show a
production of sufficient volume as to
be of commercial value.
A million and a half tester was
tried on the "gusher" by Louisville
parties yesterday, but it proved in
sufficient to prove the flow of this
splendid well, which. it is thought,
will be good for at least two million
feet.
With these two wells showing
such splendid production. other wells
will be drilled at once by "The Thir-
teen," and it is expected that field
will soon be invaded by other COM
panies.

Shorty" Long is expected to be on
the mound for Cynthiana and pitch
ers' battle is anticipated, as Long has
always been difficult for the Mt. Ster-
ling batters. On account of an in
jury to his hip, Pergrem will not be
in the game, and it is likely the third
sack will be covered by either WEIGH
man or Blake, while Lackey will like

The team will be accompanied to
Cynthiana by large number of fans,
bent on seeing FerreIl take the meas
