EASTERN JUDGE PRAISES
NORTHERN ARIZONA

"Arizona should be famous through
out the nation as the greatest sum-
mer resort district in the country" in
the opinion Of Supreme Court Justice
Lewis L. Fawcett of New York, who
spent the summer in northern Ari-
zona.
Judge Fawcett declares that the
summer climate is the most delightful
he has experienced and that the
scenery is unsurpassed. The judge
says he believes this state should de-
vote as much of its advertising to the
fine summer climate which may be
found here as to the advantages OF
wintering in the waSmer southern val
leys of the state.
1t is stated that the. eminent jurist
has visited many of the leading sum
mer resorts of the country, but de-
clares that he finds everything more
to his liking in northern Arizona than
in any oSner section of the country.
In addition to the climate, Judge
Fawcett ranks the scenery of the
northern part of the state with he
most marvellous in the world. He says
that the beauties Of Arizona are un-
known to many easterners but that
with more advertising there would be
a much greater number of them COM
ing here every summer.-The Earth.

GOV. HUNT REFUSES TO
EXTEND THE GAME LAW

Governor Hunt refused request
made by forest service officials that
the deer hunting season in the Kaibab
national forest be extended. Governor
Hunt told the officials that he was
governed by the state law and that
the hunting season would end there
Saturday night, the same as in all
other parts of the state. The deer
season has been open for month.
Forest officials claimed in their
representations to the governor that
there were too many deer for the
amount of forage on the Kaibab for
est and that more of the animals
should be Killed in order that the sur
vivors of the hunting season would
mot suffer from hunger.
In plans made for throwing the
Kaibab forest open to hunting forest
officials planned to make the bag limit
three deer but Governor Hunt de-
livered an ultimatum before the sea-
son started that the state game law
fixing the limit at one deer would be
enforced.
The Kaibab forest is a national
game preserve and for many years no
hunting was allowed 1t was first
opened to deer hunters last year when
forest officials declared that it was
necessary to reduce the enormous deer
herd because Of shortage of food

Dwight B. Heard, newspaper pub
Usher and business leader of Phoenix
addressing the committee, suggested
prompt action, preferably initiated by
Arizona, to conclude tri-state treaty
between Arizona, California and Ne
Ivada, recognizing rights Of California
and Nevada and providing water fol-
domestic use in southern California
and providing for Arizona a royalty
or production tax on power developed
wholly or partly within Arizona but
used outside the state.
Heard also urged cooperation be-

troll and development of the river 50
that stored water be reserved ex,
clusively for American water users
and none should be available for use

DIR. B. Wren Webb of Tucson, exc
cutive secretary of Arizona's Presby-
terian mission work., spent part of the
week in Leupp, conferring with Rev.
A. K. Locker regarding the new
chapel which is soon to be erected
near the agency grounds. The struc-
ture will replace the one destroyed by
fire some few years ago, and the plan
is for a structure of quite liberal pro-
portions with gymnasium in connec-
ton. Native stone to match all other
of Leupp's buildings, will be used in
the construction.
Wild ducks and geese are said to be
quite plentiful around the lakes and
water holes of this vicinity and seem
to be unusually bold in their disregard
of trespassers. This is explained by
the fact that very little hunting is
done on the reservation.

BIG FIGHT LOOMS AGAINST
ARIZONA DEV ELOPMENT

| Intention of Arizona to levy astaa
upon any power generated on Arizona
/ soil by development of the Colorado
river; opposition to- the Boulder Can
yon dam as failing to provide waters
! to irrigate upper sections of Arizona; /;
1 refusal to accept the Colorado river
seven-state compact and endorsement
4 of the LaRue report proposing COM
/ prehensive plans for development of
Ithe Colorado, were high lights of Ari-
zona's official representation at the
! United States senate committee on ir-
rigation and reclamation, opening
/ hearings at Phoenix Monday. Fl. S.
McCluskey, secretary to the governor
was the first witness and presented
| these matters.
Hope that the seven states would
get together but refusal to reveal,
save in private council with California
representatives, just upon what basis
Arizona might reach any agreement,
was expressed by McCluskey. Several
members of the committee sought to
obtain from the governors secretary
some information supon what basis
Arizona might agree, but this was de-
clined by McCluskey.
Senator Lawrence Phipps of Colo
rado, declared that if it were the dis
position Of Arizona to fight, the up-
per states would adopt fighting tac-
tics, intimating that congressional en-
dorsement of appropriations to COM
plete the Gila river irrigation project
/ involving the San Carlos dam would
be blocked.
Senator Dill of Washington told
McCluskey that the weakness of the
i position of Arizona was that it was
against something and had nothing to
offer. Senator Jones of Washington
commented that the controversy
would be settled much sooner if both
sides would get together. Senator
Pittman interjected that the commit
tee was looking forward to some basis
by which the senate might get the
seven states together on Colorado
river development plans.
Boulder Canyon dam development
is a direct menace to Arizona and
makes it impossible to get water for
Arizona by gravity" the governors
secretary declared. "We are anxious
to see development start in the lower
basin, but we want our future assured
in any development.

priated flow of the Colorado river and

right to the water when it was a ter

Mrs. H. P. Marble was confined to

The children of the public school
under the able guidance Of their
teacher, Mrs. Mary Solberg, put on a
right clever Halloween party Friday
evening at their school room. The
place had been nicely decorated, and
both children and grown ups enjoyed
the usual Halloween antics. Nice re-
freshments of sandwiches, apples and
cute little hand made boxes of candy
were furnished for each guest. The
parents and near friends of the pupils
made up the crowd in attendance.
A committee of school and agency
employees, headed by Jack Balmer,
gave to the people of Leupp a most
enjoyable Halloween party at assem-
bly, hall Saturday night. The usual
fortune telling booth, meeting the
prince, ETC., were cleverly arranged
for, and the hall "cheerfully" decor
ated in streamers of black and yell
low, and bespattered with black cats.
Miss Gladys Pate, teacher, had charge
of the program and various contests
were indulged in by opposing sides,
chosen by Messrs. Fitzpatrick and
Marble The latter's team scored the
most victories and were awarded a
nice box of peanuts. In the prize
waltz that followed, Mr.. and Mrs.
Fitzpatrick were in the opinion of the
judges, entitled to the blue ribbon,
and carried off the lonors in the
shape of box of candy. The guests
were invited out into the open to pre-
pare for themselves, hot weinie over

was accompanied by generous sup

"We want time to determine the
Bridge Canyon gravity plan is feas-

states"
1t was stated that the Bridge Can
lyon damsite is about a hundred miles
above Boulder Canyon and project
has been estimated by construction of
seventy miles of tunnels through the
mountains that water diverted there
might irrigate the great arid valleys
hundred miles to the southeast and
south. Explaining charges hitherto
made that this plan was impractical
due to tremendous costs of construc-
tion, McCluskey said that Arizona by
placing levy upon all power gen
Grated in the Colorado would provide
revenue to develop this irrigation
project.
Several senators questioned him as
to any precedents of state collecting
revenue from power development by
government projects.
In presenting the recent report of
Eugene C. LaRue, engineer of the

CIuskey said that Arizona favored the

tanned in that report. He expressed

damsite lower on the river, would be
adequate for flood control.

Economy Hints.

1t often happens that you want
hard-cooked egg yolk for garntshing
or enriching sauces, salads or meat
dishes, but do not want the hard
cooked white. 1t often happens, too,
that you want the whites of egg to
make meringue or icing with and do
not want the raw yolks. Once extra
raw yolks were used in making may
onnaise. but in this country nowadays
the vast majority of women buy may
onnaise ready made, and so do not
have this use for egg yolk.
1t is quite possible to break the
eggs and separate white from yolks,
setting aside the white to use for
meringues or icing, and having done
that to cook the yolks. Put them
in small, slightly buttered earthen
dish and set the dish in a steamer
top or in a strainer over a pan of
water Cover and let cook for Is to
20 minutes, or until the yolks are
done through. They can then be
cooled and crymbled for garnishing,
etc.
1t is quite inexcusable ever to throw
breadcrumbs away. In the we'll man
aged kitchen there is always on hand
supply of crumbs of two sizes, and
these are made from leftover bread.
Cut the bread-tf not already in slices
and place on a fiat dripping pan in
cool oven. If you think necessary,
open the oven door. At any rate.
have the temperature 50 that the
bread will become perfectly dry with
out browning. When this is done the
next thing to do is to make it into
crumbs. Some cooks do it by rolling
it out on a board with pie roller.
Others put the dried crusts through
meat grinder. while the old-fashion-
ed method is to put it in clean cot
ton bag and then crush it with a
potato masher or mallet. Having
made it into crumbs. put through a
coarse sieve and put the fine crumbs
in one receptacle for croquettes and
such purposes, and the coarse crumbs
in another receptacle to use on top
of scalloped and au gratin dishes.

Is there any one to whom the lilac
brings no touch of sentiment? If il
recalls no more than some Spring
morning long ago. when a lilac spray
bending over a fence caught your
fancy, then the lilacs, blooming now
all over Washington, will at least
bring back 10 mind the fragrant recol-

sings the joyful phase OF lilacs, in a
song as cheerful as a robins.
Such a hardy plant is the lilac, so
willing to thrive anywhere, that people
are inclined everywhere TO look on
II as something Enthusiastically and
peculiarly of their own region. Yet
lilacs are comparatively recent in the
