As, at Paris, II was the Shantung
settlement which with seeming
modesty remained in the back
ground when the grander prob
lens early paraded before the
members Of the conference. so at
Washington you heard nothing
about Shantung in the honeymoon
days when all went well and PEG
pie were declaring that Hughes had
ushered in q New Era. But that
was before Hughes and Root AMI
Lodge and Underwood followed the
mistake of Wilson at Paris and
agreed to secret sessions. And 1t
was only in secret sessions that
Shantung was seen as a partici-

MAGIC IN EYES.
There is much magic In the
eyes, and the American girl
knows how to manage that par

than any I know.
When you converse with women
Of other countries they adopt a

The American girl looks you

the impression that her first

no desire to cover up the mirror
Of her soul. In her eyes her
every motion Ia flashed. She
seems to be continually hello

"Wilson Unwittingly, With
Trotzlky, Ruined Europe"

The treaties Of Versailles and
st. Germain have condemned
central Europe to a hell on earth
and have created universal
economic crisis which Is only just
beginning. N.....
Before the war one-pound ster-
ling was worth Is crowns. Now
II il worth 1000 times as much
$4,000 crowns!
While Austrian currency has
sunken to $1,000 Of its pre-war
value the German mark is In al
most as bad q case.
Wilson unwittingly effected
what Trotzky did purposely-both
together have ruined Europe.
Wilson is guilty Of another
great delinquency. He Is the
mental originator of the suprem-
acy of social-democracy in the
central Europe Of today. This Is
his work, because by his speeches
during the war he revolutionized
the nations Of central Europe. de-
cIaring that the war was in
reality not directed against them,
but against their potentates.
The whole inner situation Of
Austria IL under the whiphand Of
the Social Democrats. the en-
blem Of q so-called "emancipa-
ton" Of the working classes-an
emancipation" which has result
ed In the death of thousands
from starvation and cold.
The peace which the Social
Democrats dictated to the bour-
geoisie in the form Of wage de-
mands has turned the employer
into the impresario Of the en-
ployed. The relations Of the crle-
brated opera singer and his i'm
presario, which. although leaving
the star dependent on his con-
tract with the latter. let him draw
, upon multiplied receipts. are du-
plicated in the present labor Mt
uation. The employer now gets
about 10 per cent, the govern
ment 10 per cent. while the re-
naming so per cent Is divided
among the employed.
ONE-SIDED CLASS POLICY.

especially the deficit in state H.
nances. II chiefly due to this one
sided class policy. According to
the budget project, about $4,000

lions. q lessening Of which would

great river for flood control irriga-
tion and power development.
Old Question Settled
In its decision in the famous Wy
oming- Colorado suit to test the rights
cf Wyoming to power rights in the
Colorado River. through its feeders,
the court decided elemental questions
of law which have been in controv-
ersy for years and which until clear
ed by the judgement of the highest
court in the land prevented early
and easy agreement between the
States interested and the Federal
government in reaching a distribu-
tion basis for the water and power
rights of the great Colorado.
Rights Of Priority
The Supreme Court found
First-That as between two States
recognizing the law of water-power
appropriation, prior appropriation in
The Winslow mail., 1922-06-16

point of time governs. In other
words, whichever State first approp-
rated power rights of the water
flowing through two or more States
recognizing the law of power ap-
preparation had the senior and prior
right to such power.
Second-That all power rights on
such river as the Colorado not yet
appropriated by the respective States
remain within the Federal power
and jurisdiction.
Third-The contention of Colorado
that it as a State was entitled to
all the power and water that fell
within the State and found its way
into the river was untenable and
therefore disallowed by the court
Fourth-The contention Of Colora-
do that the productivity of the acre
in Colorado with the use of acre
feet of water was greater than an
acre of land under the same condi-
tions, in Wyoming was found by the
court to be without merit and was
disallowed on the ground that the
citizens of Wyoming were allowed
in law the same right to production
per acre as in Colorado and the con-
tention of better use on the part of
Colorado would not be fair in the
distribution Of water.
Believe Way Cleared
AS all seven of the States in the
Colorado River Commission adhere
to the law of appropriation of pow
er rights, it is believed by those best
informed on the problem of the Col
orado River that this decision will
pave the way for an agreement as
between the States and the Federal
the water of the Colorado River, and
will result in an early movement
for unified and aggressive develop
ment of the great natural resources
of the stream on the threefold basis.
First, conservation Of flood water
and the prevention of food damage
by proper controls and storage, sec
ond, the ALLEGATION of water for ir-
rigation of vast acreage in the diff
ferent States on mutually agreed
basis; third, a concrete and unified
system Of power development with
each of the seven States. and the
Federal government, all secured by
allocated minimum and maximum a.
mounts of power on a sliding scale
as the development of power pro-
crosses.
No decision of the Supreme Court
on the water-power development of
the West is more far-reaching than
the decision today. and if it is cor
rectly interpreted by the power and
water experts in Washington, it
means that the development of the
Colorado River is vastly advanced
in time and simplified beyond cal
culation.
