ARIZONA PROPOSES NEW
COLORADO CONFERENCE

Plans for a tri-state conference to
discuss the development OF the Colo
RADIO river in the lower basin states
were approved late yesterday at a
general conference OF a group of
prominent Arizona men called by
Gov. w. p Hunt to consider ways
and means for development of the riv-
er's resources.
The governor appointed commit
tee consisting OF L. y. Douglas of Je-
rome, Ariz., and Dwight B. Heard OF
Phoenix, to confer with Gov. Richard
son of California, and, "if practicable, F."
with Gov. Scrugham of Nevada, for
the purpose of discussing a plan
which, it was stated, would remove
some of the difficulties in Arizona
which have prevented favorable ac-
ton on the Colorado river compact.
Among the conferees were several
members of the Arizona committee OF
nine, named several months ago by
Gov Hunt to bring about solution
OF the Colorado river development,
problem. The tri-state plan was
recently by Mr. Heard, Phoenix pub
Usher, as a measure ito adjust if pos
si6le, the respective rights of thelower
basin states asprovided for in the
| n 4
The two commissioners named by
Gov Hunt conferred today with the
chief executive before arranging for
"the earliest possible conference" with
Gov. Richardson of California. Under
| the tri-state conference plan, the
states would be represented by an
equal number of conferees and meet
at place not designated in the plan
Mr.. Heard declared he believed that
IF the states of the lower basin could
come to an agreement as to the alloca-
ton of water for irrigation develop
ment and distribution of revenues
from power, which would place the
legislature of Arizona in a position tc
endorse the pact cooperation could
hen be secured from the federal gov
.rnment for the construction of flood
.ontrol dam, although, he added, he
/ vas convinced that the federal gov
,rnment would be unwilling to con
ider power development.

The story has its setting in that

JUDGE UPHO[DS PROPERTY
RIGHTS OF DOG IN BONE
San Francisco Court Hands
Down Ruling That Is Epochal
in Annals of Dogdom.

A new right has been wOn for Amer
ica's dogdom. Recent decisions In vari-
outs courts have recognized a dog'e
right as a contestant in legal actions,
but now, for the first time, 1t has been
solemnly decreed that a dog Is full
legal owner of a bone, once he has It
In his possession.
And dogs throughout the country
can thank Teddy, local canine resi-
dent, Alexander Moslin, his attorney,
and Police Judge Sylvan ]. Lazarus
as they gnaw their s%oup-bones In
peace.
Teddy was brought into Judge Laza-
rus court recently to answer the most
serious charge a dog can face. he had
attacked a member of the superior
race called Man. The victim In this
case was the ~fve-year-old child Of a
neighbor.
The death penalty was demanded.
There was no disputed evidence.
Teddy was guilty. A red row Of teeth
marks on the infants arm constituted
the telltale corpus delect1.
Despite his eight years of unim-
PCNSitoOlC SOA0uStb thlhSS lOOhCu DldCh
for Teddy.
OF course, the dogs lawyer brought
out the fact that the child had tried
to rob him Of his bone, but what would
that avail in a court where all the
laws were made for men and none
were made for dogs7
Then Judge Lazarus rendered his
decision, epochal in the annals Of dog
dom. 1t was a rift in the lutte so far
as expectations were concerned.
An amazed audience heard him say:
"This dog has done nothing to de-
serve death.
1.-The evidence has shown that this
dog was gnawfng on a bone. That
bone was his own property-and what
more valuable property could a dog
have than a large, juicy bone7
anyone trying to deprive a dog Of
such property has violated the l~atter's
most sacred property rights, and 1t is
an invasion which the dog has a right
to prevent with force.
mo one would condemn the man who
a burglar. Yet, If we can get the
viewpoint of the dog, his provocation |
was as great as would be the mans.
Judges should always try to COM
prehend the emotions which actuated
animal on trial.
Though their actions may some
appear incomprehensible, per-
haps some superior being looking
down on us may find our so-calIed
sfhicaI actions just as pulling"

ANNA LEHR IS A VAMP
IN ~THE CRADLE ,

An exotic young woman with a
penchant for handsome physicians is
n of the central characters in the
Paramount perturbation Of the fam
GUS Eugene Brieux play, 1.-THE
Cradle starring Ethel Clayton, COM
ing for a stay of two days to the
Kenworthy theatre, Friday.
This woman vamper of male affec-
tons, played by Anna Lehr, is some
thing new in the annals of filmdom
and proves an increasing, thought
hateful character. Feigning a nervous
breakdown co~incidently with the ar
rival in town of a young handsome
physician, she refuses to be inter-
viewed by any other than the man
she selects. 1t matters not to her
that her inveigling will wreck homes
or happiness-all she is concerned
with are her own selfish desires.
Eventually this leads to disaster,
which is only averted by the greatest
influence in the worId-a little child.
The exact manner of all the occur
leading up to this climax forms
an intensely graphic story and one
which will hit home to every man and
woman. Charles Meredith and Mary
Jane Irving, the seven-year-old child
prodigy, are in the cast.
