foreseen solution OF the present wage
controversy is offered in the mean
time, John l.. Lewis, president of the
international organization Of United

Plans for evacuation of the mines

said. In the event of a walkout,
crews of pumpmen, engineers, fire.
men, watchmen and helpers will re-
main at their posts to prevent flood
ing of the mines and maintain the
properties, he said. He estimated
that 1000 men would remain on duty
in the anthracite and 5000 in the BIZ
luminous mines for such purposes.
Final orders for withdrawal OF the
men will be issued by the general
policies committee of the union at
Cleveland or Chicago, probably next
week, it was said, effective in case
operators and miners fail TO arrange
a new working contract before April

Mr.. Hoover made the trip to Boul-

man Of the Colorado river commission
investigating the best means Of con-
trolling the Colorado river waters.
He said the actual construction OF tbs
dam as the completion Of other Colo
rado river projects would follow =
campaign OF education.
The people east of the Mississippi
know nothing OF the need for reclaim
alton work here" he said. II think
the dam will be built. but it should
be a part Of other work on the river
We must keep in mind the needs OF
the Imperial valley in California.
The flood waters OF the river will
have to be harnessed for the protec-
ton of that valley.
This site would make possible a
dam three times larger than any dam
in the world and ten times larger
than the Roosevelt dam, the largest
in the United States.
I'VE know that the West wants this
project completed, but the East is in
different. The farmer in the East
who is growing a surplus OF food
stuffs is not keen for a project which
will irrigate and open up vast nett
acreage for agriculture. We realize
that these developments cause nat
ural increase OF population and this
increase absorbs the extra food
stuffs, but it is difficult to convince
the man who today is growing more
than he can SELL"

BORAH ATTACKS
Of
QUESTION


WASHINGTON, Mar. 1s.-The
whole field OF controversies certer-
ing about the arms conference was
reviewed anew in the senate today
during an all day debate on the four
power Pacific treaty.
For the first time since early IN
the week the treaty supporters Joined
battle directly with it's irreconcilable
opponents and a score of senators,
and fully as many issues OF the
treaty fight were drawn into the run
ming cross fire OF argument.
Senator Robinson, Democrat. Ar
kansas, started the field day Of ora
tory with a speech supporting his
amendment to pledge the four sig
natory powers against secret diplo-
macy. He was seconded in the at
tack by Senator Johnson, Republican,
California, who asked why the
Franco Japanese alliance as well as
the Anglo Japanese alliance had not
been terminated by the four-power
pact, and later Senator Borah, Re-
publican, Idaho, Joined in with an as
sault on the Shantung settlement as
an example OF the sort OF diplomacy
with which he said the United States
should not associate itself.
When the discussion drifted TO the
naval limita ton treaty and its fort-
fications provision, Senator Poin-
dexter, Republican, Washington, de-
Tended the conference as a real peace
accomplishment and when the Shan
tung agreement was assailed Senator
Lenroot, Republican, Wisconsin, read
portions of the Shantung treaty TO
support his argument that the con-
ference had produced great deal OF
actual benefit to China. Prepared
addresses supporting the four power
pact were made by Senators Jones,
Republican, Washington, and Capper
Republican, Kansas.
The manner in which the treaty
was negotiated, the charge that in
sufficient information had been sup
piled the senate, and the failure TO
include outside powers in the Pacific
conferences involving their interests,
all were among the questions brought
into the debate. One new issue was
raised by Senator Shields, Democrat,
Tennessee, who declared that the
British ambassador, Sir Auckland
Geddes, had been quoted in a speech
in Los Angeles as virtually saying
that a war in the Orient had been
averted by negotiation OF the new
treaty.
Senator johnson Immediately in
quired since when the ambassador
had been making speeches to Calihor-
mans in support of the treaty, and
Senator Robinson declared that il it
were true Japan had been preparing
to attack American possessions in the
Pacific it would be hard for him to
support either the four power or ma
val treaty.
The days outburst OF discussion
dampened the hope of some members
of the senate who had hoped to lay
the treaty aside during the first days
OF next week in order 10 give stten-
ton TO legislation. Tonight it was
considered likely by the leaders that
interest would be sufficient TO keep
the discussion going practically with
out interruption until final vote is
taken under a unanimous consent
agreement OF Friday.
