If his misdeeds could be punished
in any other way never resorted
to the guard hou'e.
Before the soldier goes to the
guard house the first time he looks
upon such punishment as degrading
ard you can be sure he is going to
be pretty careful that he does
nothing which will put him there.
litter he has once gone to the
guard house, however, his sense OF
shame is decreased and the second
time he will not hesitate so long be-
fore going wrong. Repeated trips
to the guard house result in a con-
tempt for this form of punishment
on the part of the soldier.
Encourages Disrespect
After he has gone few times
the soldier acquires mental atti-
tude in which he does not care
whether he goes to the guard
house or not. Taking away leave
or other privileges constitutes a
greater punishment for most sol
diers, without the odium attached
to a trip to the prison pen"
The same condition applies to the
Traffic Court, in the opinion OF
Colonel Bell. When the motorist
sees his fellow motorists taken to
court for trivial cases, which he
regards as no disgrace. he = not
going to have nearly the respect

Big Airedale Family
of Puppies Soon VIII
Be In Separate Homes

Save me one of your dogs" is
the kind of request H. B. Canady is
receiving from all sides since his
registered Airedale, Revilla Queen,
broke all records five weeks ago
with litter of fifteen pups, the
father of whom is registered
Airedale also. Thirteen of the lot
have lived through the five weeks
of puppyhood and are as lively as
any other pups the same age. Two
already have been shipped to Wich-
ita, Kan, and two to San Bernar-
dino. Calls for the dogs from local
people are coming in every few
days, Mr.. Canady says, but the re-
mainder of the pups will remain
with their mother about a week
yet.
Mr. and Mrs. Canady have quite
a collection of blooded dogs in the
yard at their home near the edge
of town. In addition to the two
parent Airedales and the nine re-
naming puppies, they have two
beautifully aristocratic police dogs
who are registered under the
names of Navajo Girl and Hopi
Maid. Another member of their
collection of dogs is a half-breed
hunting dog who is combination
of bloodhound and Redbone. This

dog works in cooperation with the
Alreda1eS on hunting excursions
giving voice to the findings of the
dogs while the Airedales silently
watch the cornered prey.
The Airedale does not bark when
he trees or corners an animal, Mr.
Canady says, and because of this
fact it is necessary to have a
barking dog with a hunting pack.
In this case, the half-breed helms
also with the tracking of animals
as we'll as being spokesman to an
nounce when the animals have
been reached.

by Mr.. Canady from Lou Holiday
in Montana, from whom he pur-
chased his pair of Airedales, in
which Mr.. Holiday stated that he
would like to borrow Politician.

the fall hunt in Montana and Idaho.
AS the hunting season starts in
this section at approximately the
same time, however, Mr.. Canady
expects to use his dogs here, so
Politician will be used on the Ari-
zona game fields instead

dogs, and trained the pack used

municatiOn this morning from the
president of the Arizona senate,
notifying me of the appointment of
eight members of the senate to rep
resent that body under the terms
of a resolution which l vetoed,
known as house concurrent reSOlu-
tion No. Ia resolution to ratify
the Colorado river compact with
reservations, and authorize the ap-
pointment OF a conference COM
mittee. Press reports contain the
statement that the speaker of the
house has likewise appointed a
committee under the alleged au
thority of house concurrent resO-
luton No. l.
''The morning press contains
statement emanating from the
president of the senate, which is a
virtual challenge of my cOnStitu-
tional power to veto legislative
act, and denies the validity of my
veto of house concurrent resOlu
ton No. l.
I'm any event, it is impossible for
me to recognize the validity of

the provisions of house concurrent

the purpose of settling the respec-
tive rights of lower basin states in

basin of the Colorado system,% is
beyond my power.

house concurrent resolution No. 1,
nor that there is any authority to
bind Arizona to anything l must,

you overlooked the import of my
letter of that date.
"The Seventh legislature of the
ton known as house concurrent

ratified the Colorado river compact
with certain reservations, and pro-
vided for the creation of a confer
ence committee and made appro-
priation for defraying the expenses

"On July IL press reports car
ried what purported to be an inter
view given Assemblyman Finney of
California, at Brawley. Calf, an
nouncing that conference was to
be held in Phoenix on Aug. 5, in
connection with Colorado river
questions, and setting forth the
claims that California would make.
"On July 16 1 received your let
ter dated Los Angeles, July 13. in
closing copy of the resolution
adopted by the California legisla
ture, which was the first official
knowledge 1 had that such reso-
luton had been adopted.
I'm your letter accompanying the
resolution, you suggested the ap-
pointment of Legislative commit
tee to negotiate with like commit
tees from the states of Arizona and
Nevada for the purpose OF settling
the respective rights of lower
basin states in and to the waters of
the lower basin of the Colorado
river system. In my reply l ad-
vised you that no legislation ex-
listed in Arizona for the appoint
ment of a committee with author
ity to act for the state.
Il. however, stated that | am
anxious that some progress be
made to assure better under
standing as between the states of
the lower basin, and that l would
be glad to appoint a number of
delegates to conver with Califor-
MIA and Nevada on the subject
mentioned in the resolution. | fur
ther pointed out that there would
be no money to defray the ex-
penseS of such delegates on the
part of Arizona, and that L would
await your further advice in the
matte That is, that before ap-
pointing committee I would await
information from you as to the de-
sire of California and Nevada to
confer with such an unofficial com
mittee.
1T appears. however. that prior
to receiving your communication
negotiations had already been en-
tered into by some one represent
ing California and a tentative agree
ment reached to hold the confer
ence in Phoenix on Aug. 5. and
that committee purporting to de-
rive its authority by virtue of
house concurrent resolution No !,
was undertaking to and expected to
represent the state of Arizona.
Therefore, your telegram of even
date does not clarity the situation
as to what you desire from me in
the matter.
II, of course, having vetoed
house concurrent resolution No. l,
can not recognize the validity OF
any action proposed to be taken
under its authority and must de-
cline to sit as a member of any
committee that purports to act by
it's authority, and. of course, l
must take he position that such a
conference is wholly unofficial
