Press reports received here say
there is no indication that the lives
of American or Britishers are en-
dangered by the red strikers at the
Ampara mine. Special dispatches to
Excelsior contain claims by the reds
that no violence has been committed

NEWS PIRACY
CONDEMNED AT
PRESS PARL.EY

GENEVA, Aug. 26 tR)-Protection of
news against piracy was the basic idea
of resolutions unanimously adopted to-
day at the international press con-
ference after two days of vigorous de-
bate.
The doctrine that news is property
and must be protected, already OBJ
served among American news agenc-
les and newspapers, becomes, by vir-
tue of the resolutions, universal con-
cept which will be placed before the
council of the league of nations, in
order that the league may influence
governments to reach an official in
ternational agreement, that news is a
commodity which results from labor
and enterprise anG financial expendi-
ture and should receive complete pro-
lection.
The question involved in the resolu-
tions was introduced yesterday by
Kent Cooper, general manager of the
Associated Press, and was advocated
unanimoG~y by American delegates,
including Karl Bickel, of the United
Press, Moses KoenigSberg, OF the IN
ternational News Service, Frederick T.
Birchall, acting managing editor of
the New York Times and Robert P.
Scripps of Tie Scriaps Howard news

lection Of unpublished and the other of

hands in pledges of commercial friend

civic leaders here on a good Will
pilgrimage from the sister state were
feted by the representatives of various
service organizations together with city,
state and county executives.
After being entertained by the
Breakfast club where DR.. Rufus Klein
Smid, president OF the University OF
Southern California, headed the re-
ceiving line, the visitors attended a
reception at United Artists studio with
Gloria Swanson as hostess. Miss
Swanson was presented with large
basket of Arizona's choicest grapefruit.
A luncheon at the Montmartre in

ton. In the afternoon the visitors were

right and to deduct the foregoing
items from 7,500,0CS acre feet and split
the remainder between Arizona and
California on fifty-fifty basis. They
also agreed to the seventh proposal
that the extra million feet Of water
allocated by the proposed seven-state
compact pe considered as part OF the
tributary waters going to Arizona.
They definitely rejected the pro-
posal to have the waters from the
tributaries reaching the main stream
above Laguna dam considered a part
of the main stream to be divided
equally between the two states. They
asked that the proposal to give each
state its tributaries be amended to
give to each state all of the water
supplied by it's tributaries except
100000 acre feet from Arizona tribu-
taries be allotted to California.
The Arizona representatives also
agreed to by California that would
provide that unalloted water should be
divided equally between California
an dArizona without prejudice to
the upper basin states
The acceptance by Arizona of so
many of the points of the mediation
plan led observers to believe that dii-
ferences between that state and CAL
ifOrnia can be successfully settled
when negotiations are continued to-
morrow.
