Just as soon as our state Iegis-

Of the most important matters to
be discussed, matter that means
to Arizona today, tomorrow and for
generations to come.
AS this paper has always insis-
ted, this is not matter to be de-
cided by party politicians-the iss-
ues are too great and too far
reaching; they mean too much to
every one of us. The best possible
technical advice is none too good
for the development of the river
means literal millions to all the
states affected.
That Arizona has rights in the
river flow will hardly be quest
ioned; we control nearly all the
effective fall, and surely we have
interests that can not be ignored
all this foOlishness of making 'ap-
preparations" is the verieSt rot
any fool can do that. The big and
unacceptable fact is that the
EFFECTIVE flow of the river is
within Arizona-and we are entitled
to the benefits. Let us join with
the other interested states to secure
a reasonable apportionment of the
river flow, SO that we may secure
the reasonable benefits, instead of
squabbling like lot Of silly child
rem over-we know not what.
If all the competent engineers of
the nation were to be consulted, we
would find practically all of them
suggesting that the proper plan
of development would be from the
upper reaches downward, and i'll

means from Glen Canyon, or there

ed? The fact that Arizona is
prosperous and Cochise is pros
porous cannot be denied. Other
Arizona towns and cities are MAX
ing the same showing. Where do
you see more well-dressed, pros
porous looking people than you
can see in Arizona? Where do
you see better attended fairs,

right here in Arizona? No state
in the Union is more prosperous
or offers better inducement than
does Arizona. Put your shoulder
