flow comes from Wyoming, Utah, Col
orado and New Wexico. If each state,
therefore, could and would use all the
waters of the streams in the state OF
origin there would be little left for
Arizona or California for either power
or irrigation.
Fortunately for Arizona the waters
cannot be so used; first, because there
cannot be found legitimate benefit
ciaE use for it all in the states of orr
gin; second, it would be exceedingly
difficult, if not impossible, to hold
back the floods for use in those states,
except to a limited degree, and third,
if we in the lower states can and will
appropriate and use the water first,
thereby obtaining prior right to so
much as may be appropriated and ap-
piled to beneficial use, this right
once established by use must be re-
spected. 1t does not mean, however,
mere paper filing, for that will
avail nothing unless put into effect
and the water actually applied to the
intended use within a reasonable time.
Each of the seven states within the
basin has the same relative right to
the waters of the Colorado and its
tributaries. It is common resource
of great, if not vital Importance to
the welfare and prosperity Of each of
the states. Any of the proposed
works on the main stream of the Colo
rado will involve very large expen-
diture of money which it will be prac-
tically impossible to raise in the face
of strong opposition. The develop
ment of the Colorado in a large way
by controlling it's floods is necessary
at this time for the protection of life
and property. 1t is necessary for the

DEVELOPMENT OF THE
COLORADO RIVER PACT
By W. $. Norviel.
Cooperation Necessary

In all seven of the Colorado river
basin states the laws governing the
use of the public waters are almost
identical. Priority of appropriation
controls in each, or, as often as been
said, "first in time, first in right"
We in Arizona feel little piqued
if a suggestion is made of a restric-
tion or our right to use all of the
waters of our streams; the Little Col
orado the Williams and the Gila. We
claim their waters as our very own
to do with as we please and when we
please. There is no division of mind
among us on that point. The people
of the other states have exactly the
same feeling about their rivers, lakes
and streams. The people of Utah, of
Colorado and of Wyoming are as jeal-
Gus of their rights to the waters of
their streams which form the Colorado
as we are, and they have the same
rights that we have; no less and no
different The waters of their streams
have been dedicated to the public by
their constitutions and their laws the
same as ours have.
The United States geological sur
yey, under whose jurisdiction water
measurements are made and the re-
cords kept, has given us the following
tabulation, based on the available re-
cords of the annual water supply of
the Colorado river basin:
The Coconino sun., 1924-08-15

tive use for there is considerable
return flow excepting from that di-
verted out of the basin and that used
in the Imperial Valley. The return
flow varies in different localities be-
cause of many reasons but may be
estimated safely at an average of %
per cent where the return flow is pos
sible at all. Using the above figures
would leave a consumptive use or loss
to the river of approximately $685.
$50 acre feet per annum. This, how
ever, would not be wholly true, as
basis of consideration under the COM
pact, for the compact is founded on a
reconstructed river, or what the river
would be without any diversions at all.
For instance, in calculations above
we have included 10000 acre feet of
water per annum used from the Santa
Cruz river. How much of that, if not
used, would reach the Colorado, if any,
is problametical, as the stream sinks
from sight at Tucson and does not ap-
pear again as stream, though sup
posed to empty into the Gila near
Sacaton, and only that which would
reach the Colorado and be available
there would concern any other state,
and as a matter of fact not even then,
for California makes no claim to any
of the water of the Gila, as such.
Occasional floods in the Santa Cruz
may flow into the Gila. If so, they
have been measured at Yuma and are
taken care of in the record.
Again, in the Duncan Valley on the
upper Gila, a a general thing, though
the records vary, the valley uses $50
per cent of the flow of the river meas
ured at the head of the upper canal.
In other words, so per cent of the to-
tai flow returns to the river for reuse
in the valley and at the lower end of
the valley will be found a considerable
stream and return flow. 1t may be
The Coconino sun., 1924-08-15

that some of the water is taken and
used two, three or more times in pass
ing through the valley. The same con-
dition will be found in the Stafford
Valley, except there will generally be
a small per cent left in the stream
at the lower end of the valley. A
similar condition exists in the Salt
River Valley, and all other valleys
where irrigation is practiced. How
much of the water now used from the
Gila and tributaries, if not so used,
would reach the Colorado and be
available there for use no one can say.
We have and must continue to rely
on the u. S. geological survey records,
they being acceptable to the other
states of the basin, and that is, that
the Gila would produce 100000 acre
feet per annum ON the average to the
Colorado, a portion of which comes
from any may be used by New Mexico,
hence the million acre feet increase
per annum to the ALLEGATION in the
lower basin in Article III (b) of the
compact, concession to cover the
waters of the Gila, the Williams, the
Little Colorado and all other streams
in Arizona.
The rights of the several states in
the basin and of the government of
the United States are so closely inter
related that cooperation between the
states and with the general govern
ment is necessary for any large or ex-
tensive plan of work on the Colorado
river. The compact forms a basis of
such cooperation.
