earlier, there would never have been
a Colorado river compact" the engi-
neer vouched.
There is no chance for re-aIIo-
cation of the waters of the Colorado
river under the present agreement,
McGregor stated, and the 40 year
idea" SO often mentioned, simply
means that if any water is left over
40 years from now there may then
be a chance for another ALLEGATION
II it is finally decided that Arizona
must have the pact, the state should
have a definite understanding with
California, the Warren man said, as
these two states will reap the great
est benefit and must assume the full
burden, If development is to come
under public ownership. To have
storage con5rol dams at the upper
end of the river rather than near
the lower end would be much more
feasible from construction and fl
nancial point of view, according to
the speaker He also advocated low
cost money for the construction
projects suggested and the getting
of the various mining and industrial
concerns of the stuthwest behind the
building work with their great fl
nancial resources.
The text of McGregor's speech fol-
lows:
The Pact
The best interest of the nation as
a whole will be conserved by not
disturbing the present rule for the
ALLEGATION of water, which has been
upheld by the supreme court and
makes him who is first in use, the
first in right. Any other rule will
will not bring about as rapid or ef-
ficient development, and can not be
permanent. ss@es
With the Colorado fully developed
for storage, there viii not be enough
water for all the land available for
irrigation under it. To concur in re-
serving sin perpetuity" more water
for the upper states than they can
possibly use for generations, if ever,
and waste it into the sea instead of
allowing it to be utilized in Arizona
and California would be Short
sighted policy for these states and
the federal congress. 1 think agri-
culture in the upper states should be
protected against power priorities in
the canyon for time at least and,
while it is not entirely sound and
might embarrass the best interests of
the nation, I would not seriously OBJ
ject if the upper states were allowed
water for all the land they can de-
velop in the next 40 years.
Swing-JOhnsOn Bill.
The federal ownership plan of pow
er development, as proposed in the
Swing Johnson bill, about which we
have heard so much lately, 1 think,
is a false alarm. 1t is not likely the
taxpayers of all the other states will
care to contribute for the benefit of
California, the most favored state in
the union, especially when private
capital stands ready to make the de-
velopment AS now outlined, this
bill is decidedly against Arizona's best
interests.

ownership plan could be brought
about by the cooperation of the in
terested states-Arizona, California
and Nevada. These states will reap
the benefits of development and
should bear the responsibility. In
the distribution of the benefits of
canyon development, to large eX-
tent, Arizona will be in the position
of the seller, and California the buy
er, and satisfactory deals can result
only with mutual confidence and un-
derstanding.
should Purchase Land from Mexico
We have sufficient lands in the
United States to utilize all the water
that will be available by the canyon
flood control and power development,
but the cost of putting the water on
much of our land will be high and
not commercially feasible, for the
present at least. Furthermore, in
carrying out our proposed irrigation
pojects, we would deprive ourselves
OF a large amount of power as, un-
der one plan the water would be
diverted from the river above impor-
te.nt power sites greatly reducing the
power that could be generated. I'm
der the other plan, the water would
be diverted below the power sites,
but an excessive amount of power
would be required for pumping. The
lands nature intended to be irrigated
by canyon storage happen to lie, for
the most part, just south of the Mex
lean border. Water can be applied
to these lands at small cost for
development, with little if any pump
ing, and without curtailing any pos
sible& future power development.
AS the storage will be provided by
our own funds, we naturally feel our
right OF reserve the water for our
own lands can not be questioned.
However, to build the all-American
canal, and the Parker-Gila Valley or
the Arizona High-Line canals for the
purpose of utilizing the water within
our present borders, with the excess
sive construction costs and loss OF
power involved would be an economic
crime against both Mexico and our
selves. This program if started upon,
would prove a monument to the de-
plorable weakness of the present-day
diplomacy of the two republics.
Both nations should receive the
maximum benefits to which they are
equitably entitled, from their Colo
RADIO river resources The Colorado
and the territory it drains and serves,
is 90 per cent in the United States.
The other 1 per cent is in Mexico,
and the part of it having value is
mainly owned by American interests.
The United States should purchase
this 1 per cent and use the waters
from our flood storage there. We
could afford to pay much more than
the value of this land to Mexico and
still make tremendous saving over
1.-THE cost of utilizing our flood waters
by the other plans now proposed.
The entire Colorado river develop
ment should operate as one project
economically, and in the interest of
international harmony should be one
politically. We would hesitate to
| give up territory ourselves; naturally
we are reluctant to ask this of Mex
leo, but we have an unusual situation
which should be faced squarely by

but motion to that end would have
been necessary and none was pro-
posed. There was q lull and finally
Chairman Warren, of the appropriation
committee that reported on the defic-
iency bill, moved an adjournment
which was voted unanimously. Ex-
cept for the items for two bridges,
one over the Colorado river between
Arizona and Utah and the other in
New Mexico, the deficiency bill had
been completed. Earlier in the day
the house had approved a conference
report on the measure and compare
lively smooth sailing had been ex-
pected in the senate for final action.
1t is the first of the annual supply
bills Ito receive full congressional
action.
Senator Bratton, democrat New
Mexico, upset the plans of leaders by
renewing his fight against taxing the
Indians for the bridges. He declared
a question % right and justice was
involved. He was Joined by Senator
Cameron, Arizona, and Lenroot and
LaFollette, Winconsin, republicans.
They proposed that the bill go back
to conference, contending that there
were so many important matters in
the measure that the house managers
finally would be obliged to yield.
After the roll call had been com
pleted, but before the vote was an
nounced, one senator emerged from
the republican cloak room, but when
informed tha% he still could be called
upon to vote, he scurried back With
the motion for adjournment there was
general exodus of senators from both
the republican and democratic cloak
rooms.

In commenting on the federal own

pecially when private capital stands

Before going into a brief but thor
ough and interesting discussion of
the Colorado river pact, McGregor
told how with the first settlements
along the rivers in the sections of
the west open to irrigation, the be-
lef that the initial settler had the
priority right to the use of the
waters, grew to be generally adopted.
He then went on to discuss the ar
gument between Colorado and Wyo-
ming over the Laramie river of the
latter state and told how the supreme
court finally held that the generally
established priority idea for the al
location of the waters of ihe river
within one state was binding also in
the matter of interstate streams. 1t
was doing the settling of this quarrel
which was caused by Colorado claim
ing some of the waters of that river,

who should receive the benefits of
