USE AND TAX COLORADO
RIVER, URGES ELLINWOOD
IN CAMPAIGN STATEMENT

er and fits into every scheme for
the development of the river.
THAT is the way it was done at
Roosevelt. Who will say that Nor
mon Flats should have been built
first? True, on the Colorado, low
regulatory dam must be built on
the lower reaches of the river, but
that comes afterward, not first. The
Roosevelt system should be applied
to the Colorado.
Would Tax Power
Taxation of the power generated
on the Colorado is vital to Arizona.
The right exists The machinery is
lacking. Before any development is
permitted on the river, the Arizona
legislature must enact the laws
which will carry into effect this
right of taxation. If the layman
does not, the lawyer does know that
is Arizona's hardest legislative job.
Everyone realizes this state has
not the right to tax such projects
as at Roosevelt and San Carlos.
This right of taxation is limited to
that character of development Pc
culiar to the Colorado.
What about the pact? I am
against its ratification. When we
have secured from California and
Nevada an agreement justly divid-
ing the waters of the Colorado,
then let us talk about the pact.
con the division of the water
public opinion has crystaliZed in
Arizona. Government figures show
the flow of water into Arizona at
Lee Ferry to be 100000 acre feet
per year Three hundred thousand
acre feet per year, or less than 2
per cent of the total flow, is all
which at any time shall be avail
able to Arizona and California, ex-
elusive of the waters of the Gila
and Salt rivers, should be divided
equally between Arizona and Cali
fornia. No water should be allotted
to Mexico which can be put to work
in Arizona or in any other state.
Promises Referendum
"AriZona's constitution provides
that the people shall have the right
to express approval or disapproval
by the initiative or referendum. of
any proposed legislation touching
their political or property rights.
The determination of the rights of
Arizona in the waters of the Colo
RADIO by agreement with the other
Colorado river states. is the most
m p ort ant legislative proposal
which has arisen or can arise in the
history of this state. If an agree
ment be reached when I am COVER
nor of Arizona I shall recommend
to the legislature that such agree
ment be submitted to the voters.
This may be done quickly.
"It seems strange to me that this
assurance has never been given our
citizens.
II say to you. while I am COVER
nor of the state of Arizona no
agreement on the river shall, with
my consent, become binding except
by vote of the people,"

Tucson - The industrial employ

nearby vicinities is increasingly

shows more light oil than has yet
been found in this we'll. He states
that the 8-inch casing is being run

that pay sand may be found at any

This we'll seems destined to
bring in something sensational in
the very near future, judging from

PHOENIX = Reiterating his op-
position to the Boulder Canyon dam
and branding as detrimental to the
interest of the state any project on
the Colorado river which interferes
| with general plan of development
of the streams resurces, E. E. Ell
linwood, Democrat candidate for
the gubernatoriaI nomination, last
Friday issued a statement embody-
ing his views on the river contro-
versy.
He characterized the Swing
Johnson bill as Outrageous" in
that he said, it is designed to ben
eft other states, leaving Arizona
out"
He would be unwilling, he de-
clared, to accept any final settle
ment of the river question until the
| people of the state have passed up
on the proposal at the polls, as
serting that while l am governor
no agreement shall, with my con-
sent, become binding except by a
vote of the people"
Let's Use Colorado
His statement follows:
"The Colorado must be saved for
Arizona and future generations.
That has been a cry in the state
the past three years. Rather let
us use the Colorado. 1t has been
saved long enough. We need &C
tion on the Colorado. That is where
we have fallen down. The Colora-
do is an inter-states stream. The
only way to get action and make
our rights certain is by agreement
with the other states through which
the river flows.
Unfortunately, today We are not
on speaking terms with the other
Colorado river states or the federal
government. We have an open
breach with California and Neva-
da. Frank negotiation, not hostiIi-
ty, will heal the breach But, more
than that, any man who occupies
the governors chair in Arizona and
who, at heart, is desirous of work
ing out speedy solution on the
Colorado and keeping the question
out of politics, must work in har-
mony with the legislature.
"The legislature and not the gov
ernor, has been given the final say
as to what this agreement shall be.
Our last legislature appointed a
committee to negotiate this agree
ment. The present administration
ignored this committee We will
never get anywhere with the legis-
lature and the governor at logger
heads. However able. the COVER
nor's committee is without legal
authority and without official
standing with the other states. 1t
can go nowhere.
Against Boulder Canyon
II am against the Boulder canyon
dam. I am against Diamond creek,
as an initial project. 1t must take
it's turn.
"I am heartily for the Arizona
Glen canyon dam.
"The Boulder canyon dam de-
velops the river at the wrong end
first. 1t develops it for the benefit
of one state and a foreign country
California and Mexico. The
Swing-Johnson bill, which fathers
it, is wrong in principle. 1t is out
rageous; it leaves Arizona out.

river in Arizona. Boulder canyon is
at the bottom. Boulder canyon
