Rains Plentiful Over
North Part Of State

Heavy rains early in the week
contributed materially to the well
being of the ranges of the north
ern Arizona district. Stock con-
tinued to improve and range from
good to excellent in many sections.
From those sections where pasture
have been good for some time, some
stock is being marketed in fine
condition. Notwithstanding heavy
rains in recent weeks range and
stock in the Prescott section are
still reported poor. Unusually
heavy rains fell in the Grand Can
yon, Williams and Seligman sec
tions and the supply of stock water
is consequently ample for some
time to come. The supply Of water
in the vicinity of Ashfork is also
reported to be the best in years.
Range and cattle in the Douglas
section are said to be in fine con-
dition. Many cattle are being mar
keted from the Pinedale region
where range conditions are excel
lent and stock fat. Heavy rains
in the Seligman country have been
followed by a considerable run-off
and the storage of an ample sup
ply Of stock water.

DUCK SEASON
OPEN today:
MUCH KILLING
IS LEGAL NOW

This morning at the break of
dawn, the two and one-half months
open season on ducks opened. The
season on quail, geese, snipe and
other water fowl is now open and
killing these birds will be legal
until December 81.
With the opening of the duck and
quail seasons it will give nimrods
their greatest variety of game in
open seasons for the deer and tur-
key season which opened October
l, does not close until October 81.
The dove season is still open and
will not close until December Is.
White wings are in season until
December 81, and there is an open
season the year around on rabbits.
1t is reported that quail are more
plentiful this season than for many
years, due to the dry nesting sea-
son. Local sports have been pre-
pairing for the opening of the sea-
son for days and they are anxious
to get out and gather in the bag
limit of 20 of the little topknots.
Ducks are beginning to come
down from the north in large flocks.
They are mostly teal, grays, pin
tails, spoonbills, blue-bills, butter
balls.
There are many good duck hunt
ing grounds around Winslow, the
best probably being the fiat across
the Little Colorado from Joseph
City There are number of lakes
close north and west of town where
ducks generally can be found.
Big game hunting has been re-
ported more successful than ever
before. From the Kaibab forest in
the north to the Mexican border in
the south has furnished Arizona
sportsmen with plenty of venison,
turkey, and bear meat. The sea-
son on deer and turkey will not
close until October 81.

Stock Shipments Are
Still Heavy From Here

Shipments of cattle and sheep
from Navajo county continues in
great numbers. Twenty cars were
sold and will be shipped to Cali
fornia next Monday. T. E. Pol
lock, of Flagstaff, will ship 25 cars
of cattle Tuesday. Marty & Lea
witt will send three shipments of
sheep next week, tOtalling nearly
sixty carloads in all. Johnny Will
liams has made several shipments
of stock, the last few days, and
has purchased many more head
from the Indians which will be
loaded and sent out soon, and HUI
bert Richardson has $500 sheep
ready to ship. The heavy ship
ments of stock and the movement
of fruit from the coast to the east,
is taxing the capacity of the crews
on the Santa Fe, and it is said that
more men are marked up, especi-
ally engine crews. than have ever
been before.

Plant Is Under Way

. Excavations for the foundation OF
the 100000 power plant at the
base of Mormon Flat dam are now
being made by the Salt River VAL
lev Water Users association pre-
paratory to beginning actual con-
struction work on the structure it.
self
Construction of the new road to
the base of the dam now is about
IS per cent complete. Another 10
days will finish this job, made
necessary to permit movement OF
building materials and machinery
to the power plant site.
The new road takes off from the
present Mormon Flat highway at
the former construction camp, con-
tinuing the decent from that point
out around the site of the hill and
then approaching the dam along
the river course and approximately
at water level.
The Mormon Flat power house,
being constructed under the con-
tract entered into recently by the
association and the Central Arizona
Light and Power company, is to be
a one-unit affair, having a mini
mum load of 1000 kilowatt. Terms
of the contract provide for it's COM

.INSLOW MANS
NEPHEW WRITES
IMPORTANT PLAY

Harry Behn, nephew of Carl
Behn, of this city, has suddenly be-
come prominent in the moving pic
ture world, because of assisting in
one of the big pictures of the sea-
son, big Parade" produced by the
Metro-Goldwyn-Meyer studio. The
film will have it's premiere show
ing in the Grammar theatre in Hol-
lywood.
The story has to deal with the
realities of war Without false pa
triotic glamor or cheapmelodrama
it takes it's place among the mast
erpieces of the screen a place read
lily conceded by critics.
1t was just year ago that Har-
ry Behn entered the Metro-Gold-
wyn-Meyer studio as member of
the staff. Within that year has
come the opportunity to have an
important part in the filming of
"The Big Parade" and to write the
continuity for LA Boheme," an
other big film in which Lillian Gish
is starred. This is in the making
at the present time. His script
was selected from a large number
submitted.
To Harry Behn can be credited
the launching of the Phoenix Lit
tie Theatre, which has become a
center of cultural interest since it's
inception three years ago. Mr..
Behn, just returned to Arizona af-
ter his graduation from Harvard
University, where he was a student
at the AT" Workshop, believed that
Phoenix should join the movement
which was becoming widespread
in the eastern states. The follow
ing spring, he went abroad where
he continued his study of the
drama through the Scandinavian
Foundation Fellowship for fifteen
months, spending several months
in Italy and on the Continent be-
fore returning to the United States.

PAYMENT Of
IS PER CENT
MAY SOON BE
MADE BY BANK

That a second dividend of fifteen
per cent of deposits of the Bank
of Winslow is tentatively promised
by Receiver J. S. Dodson, in a
statement made to The Mail this
morning. An application to the SUI
perior court been made and
published for approval of the divi-
dend, which, if approved, will mean
the disbursement of about 900
to depositors in the next three
weeks. The hearing before the
court will be held Monday, Octo-
Der 10.
Mr.. Dodson states that he has on
hand at the present time $157 ,694.71
for distribution, about two-thirds
of which will go to reimburse de-
positors. Of that amount $16,943.17
is held by the First National Bank
of Albuquerque, pending settlement
of litigation involving that sum,
leaving approximately $140,000 to
be applied on preferred claims, re-
serve fund and dividends. Of the
$140000 to be distributed, about
$4,000 will go to the receiver OF
the old State Bank of Holbrook,
which closed it's doors two or
three years ago, the funds of which
had been deposited in the Mer-
chants and Stock Growers Bank,
which was later merged with the
Bank of Winslow. The latter con-
stitutes one of the preferred claims
ordered paid and approved some
time ago.
All of the funds on hand will not
be disbursed at this time, as the
law requires the receiver to hold
sufficient funds on hand to protect
claims filed but not yet approved
and deposits for which no claims
have as yet been filed. Twelve
thousand dollars will be held for
this reserve fund. A total of 2160
claims have been filed before the
receiver.
Mr.. Dodson stated that he has
received no official notice of the
suits reported to have been filed
by C. S. White and the First Ma
tional Bank of Albuquerque, but
he understands such suits have
been filed He makes no predic-
tion what effect these suits will
have on the hearing to be held next
Monday.

DAM IS BUILT In
CANYON DIABLO
AT CANYON LODGE.

E. M. Cundiff, proprietor of the
Garage, service station and store
at Canyon Lodge on Canyon Diab-
10, was in Winslow yesterday and
reports the completion of a dam
in Canyon Diablo above the high
way bridge. The dam is 72 feet

OF
DIAMOND Dam
is SOPPOSED
BY UNCLE SAM

H. S. McCluskey, secretary to
Governor Hunt, left yesterday for
Washington, D. c., where he will
appear as the governors special
representative before the Federal
Power commission, October 20
This is the date set for the hear
ing of the application of ]. B. Gil
rand of Phoenix, for a federal per
nit to construct a dam at the Da-
mond Greek site on the Colorado
river The hearing will be held in
the office of the secretary of war
starting at 2:90 p. m.
The upper basin states will be
represented at the hearing, and will
protest the granting of the permit
on the grounds that the use of
water for the generation of power
at Diamond Creek might interfere
with the development of the river
in the upper basin.
1t is assumed that Arizona will
oppose the granting of the permit
on the grounds that the construc-
tion of the Diamond Creek dam
would absorb all of the present
market for power, which would
prohibit the financing of other pro-
jects, and that it would interfere
with the construction of a dam at
Bridge canyon, which would be
more advantageous from an irriga-
tion standpoint. No intimation,
however, was given out, as to what
the attitude of the state admins
tration would be at the coming
hearing.
The Diamond Creek application
has been pending for many years.
1t was postponed at one time in
the hope that the ratification of the
Colorado River compact would be
hastened. At least the commission
intimated that the permit would not
be considered until after the pact
had been signed by all the states
of the Colorado river basin.
1t is understood that the Federal
Power commission has written the
equivalent of the Santa Fe compact
into the present permit to Grand
1t would also include a provision
that the use of water for power
purposes would not constitute a
prior right as against irrigation,
either in the upper or the lower
basin.
The purpose Of the Diamond
Creek dam would be to generate
power for Arizona mines.
The Federal Power commission
is composed of Dwight F. Davis,
secretary of war; Hubert Work,
secretary of interior; and William
Jardine, secretary of agriculture
