states and growing sentiment favor
able to a suggested litigation holi-
day" over rights accruing from river
development to the end that "protec-
ton will be afforded sections inmi-
nently in danger Of total destruction"
Speakers did not quibble over the
issues OF lesser Importance. Flood
control, they opined. is of first i'm
portance: other issues are subservient
thereto.
IRRIGATION Must Precede Power.
As to relative Importance of de-
velopment programs, it was the con-
census of opinion that irrigation held
precedence over power. One speaker
on the afternoon program, in stress
ing this point, held that states of the
Colorado river basin have no rights
to water or power ALLEGATION other
than vested in them through federal
dispensation. The federal and not
state governments control these bene-
fits, he added.
Putting aside, for the moment,
questions as to priority rights OF land
to use Of water. Mr.. Davis asserted
that the Colorado river flow is suffi-
cient for the irrigation OF 100000
acres of land-for the irrigation Of
every acre of land in every feasible
reclamation project in the seven
states of the river basin.
Dwight B. Heard OF Phoenix voiced
an unselfish policy for the earliest
possible practicable development of
the Colorado by the federal govern
ment for the benefit of all and not for
the profit of a few" Reiterating a
position taken by speakers who had
preceded him, that of immediate ac-
tion looking to the construction of
the most practical flood control dam,
Mr.. Heard expressed the opinion that
the water Of the Colorado belongs
to the state or states where it can be
put to the greatest beneficial use"
and incidentally paid tribute to
Judge Joseph II. Kibbey for develop
ing in the southwest this fundamental
policy of beneficial use.
The days session was less stormy
than that which marked the opening
on Wednesday. This may have been
due to the fact that no concrete plans
for the development or ALLEGATION of
water and power benefits were pre-
sented. Speakers, rather. confined
themselves to principles OF action. 1t
was a harmonious meeting of minds,

DELIVERS
TREATY SPEECH
TO QUE 7 f "

WASHINGTON. Mar. 16.-The
campaign of the irreconcilables
against the four power Pacific treaty
continued without abatement in the
senate today despite signs of waning
interest and disposition Of leaders TO
regard ratification of the pact as
foregone conclusion.
For more than three hours, in
senate chamber which most OF the
time was all but deserted, Senator
Reed, Democrat of Missouri, assailed
both the four-power and naval
treaties, which he said would fit to-
gether TO put the United States In
position Of "helplessness" in the Pa
cific.
He charged that the facts under
lying the five five three naval settle
ment had been misrepresented, and
put into the record figures of his own
designed to show that superiority OF
speed. armament and auxiliary
craft would greatly increase the relS-
tive strength of the British and
Japanese navies.
Senator Reeds address was inter-
rupted but a half dozen times by
senators who questioned him on mi
nor points of information regarding
the naval estimates he submitted and
when he had finished the debate
drifted to other subjects.
The administration leaders made no
effort to reply to the attack, main
tanning that yesterdays agreement TO
vote finally on the treaty on March
"a had crushed all possibilities OF an
adverse vote.
Toward the end Of his argument
Senator Reed turned his fire on the
apparent diminution of interest in
the debate, noting for the record that
only two Republican senators We're
present, and flaying the Republicans
who had stood with him against the
Versailles treaty but now were sup
porting the r-power pact. These
men. he said, had heard the com
manding voice of their political par
ty, but kept away from the debate
on the senate floor because they
were ashamed"
In the view of senators who have
canvassed the situation carefully, the
two big issues remaining to be settled
in the four power treaty fight revolve
about the foreign relations commit.
tees mo alliance" reservation ana
the compromise reservation that is
to be proposed regarding participa-
ton OF outside powers in conferences
over Pacific questions. A group OF
Republican senators are still said TO
be strongly opposed to all reserVa-
tions and inclined to work against the
committee proposal even though ad-
ministration leaders fear that its de-
feat might endanger ratification OF
the treaty itself. The conference"
has not yet been offered,
but an effort will be made to put II
in a form acceptable to various sem
ators who had objected TO the propo-
sal when it was before the senate IN
the shape OF a textual amendment.

is somewhat less severe than that i'm

amendment provides that a driver OF
a motor vehicle convicted of the third
violation of the act shall forfeit his
license and none shall be issued TO
him during the remainder OF the MS

The afternoon session OF the senate
was spent mostly in the COMMITTEES OF

financial code. Several amendments
were offered and accepted without
exception. They were all either

difficulty that Arizona could reclaim
1000, 900 acres"
"Have you made any calculations
as to the size and length of the pro-
posed ditch?" Chairman Hoover
asked.
'Its size and length would de-
pend upon whether il would be an
earth or a rock excavation. A rock
excavation would be narrower with
a deeper channel. The distance
would be about $50 miles down on
through Parker and about the same
distance on TO the center of the irri-
cation district"
Getting back again TO the question
Of ALLEGATION of water rights, Chair
man Hoover asked:
"Then. in your opinion. a compact
between states would not serve any
useful purpose"
NO" Professor Smith answered.
do you believe that this commits
sion should take into consideration
the water rights of the Republic OF
Mexico?" Commissioner Noryiel then
asked.
81 do not" was the emphatic reply.
"Then il is your opinion that the
commission should allocate the wa
ter rights in the state. forgetting the
Mexican rights altogether"
Eyes, that is my position Pro-
fessor Smith said.
even to the extent of depicting
the entire supply of the river?'
THAT is my position"
From this point the discussion
turned again to the Maxwell proposals
Commissioner Norviel seeking addi-
tional information on the relative
feasibility of the San Carlos and the
Sentinel dam sites as flood control
measures.
what is your opinion on the San
Carlos and Sentinel dam projects?"
Commissioner Norviel asked.
SENTINEL PROJECT NOT
FEASIBLE
"The Sentinel project is entirely
out OF the question" Professor Smith
replied with emphasis. Continuing
he added: "The San Carlos project
is as fine a one as there is in the
Colorado river BASIN"
How far would ii initiate against
the San Carlos dam as an irriet ion
project to utilize it for flood contOl
purposes?" Chairman Hoover asked.
There would be a loss OF about
1900, 900 acre feet. but even one
third of the total flow would be of
enormous value. to the project" was
the answer.
From this point the discussion cen
tered on the extent Of the Colorado
and Gila rivers flood menace. Pro-
fessor Smith refused to be drawn
into any long discussion on this is
sue, averting a compromising sit
uation by declaring that the two
problems supplement each other.
"Then 1t is your opinion that an
acre foot of water has a greater value
on the lower reaches of the river than
on the upper?" Commissioner Emer-
son of Wyoming asked.
Before the witness had time to an
swer. someone in the crowd shouted:

SUSPENSION WHEEL
MEETS WITH FAVOR

Much interest is being manifested
in Tonopah over the exhibition of the
Watson suspension auto wheel by
James c. Penn, who arrived from
Los Angeles last night driving a
Studebaker Six. This wheel is not
built on the order of a spring, as
some people surmise, but has steel
spokes using a fraction of the elias.
ticity of steel, thus creating a COM
pound shock absorber from the
ground up. 1t is claimed that the
life of the tires and every other part
Of the auto is greatly extended, and
as proof OF this assertion Mr.. Penn
points to the fact that his tires have
been run more than 5000 miles, yet
they show not the least sign OF
wear, The wheels possess immeas.
urably greater strength than wooden
spokes and the claim is made that
they will be found in great favor
in dry countries, such as Nevada.
They are not affected either by heat
or cold, and have rs times the
strength of wooden wheels. There
has never been known OF case
where a wheel was crushed in a
wreck or from skidding.
Mr.. Penn is representing the Wat
son Suspension Wheel company,
which is making ready to build a
factory at Los Angeles for distribu-
tion through seven states OF the
west and in the Orient. A repre-
sentative of the Bonanza was given a
ride this morning over unusually
rough roads and he imagined he was
gliding along IN q Pullman car, so
light was the shock when passing
over ruts and other Instructions.
These wheels are made to fit any
car.
