THREE.POWER EXPERTS MEET
(Continued from First Pase)

(COntlnue0 ITOm f1IU IaSoI prospects, shows that tho Japanese is within closer range of possible fruit full discussion than the British pro- posals, which are regarded as noth- ing less than scrapping the Wash- ington treaty and as 50 vague con- corning total tonnage limitations as to constitute no real limitation what ever except as to the size of war ships. all of which would be re- duced.
 Hence. 1t Is pointed out, even if the size of individual cruisers was lessened, unlimited competition would still exist concerning the num- Der of cruisers to be built. It Is fur ther pointed out that if some of the decisions reached at Washington were to be revised here, there would be no reason why all should not be ropened. including the question of naval bases. such as Singapore and Hawaii. and the problem of Ameri- can Notifications in the Tar East. D00KeFOllS fEUSlS.UuS The Japanese project is said to rcssess the fundamental advantage of adhering to the Washington de- cisions but also is declared to pos- sess the dangerous provision of pre- venting the replacement Cf cruisers over 16 years of age. Th's virtually means that the United States would only have the right to replace her
 existing 10 7,500 ton cruisers of the
 Omaha class and the eight new 10.-
 600 cruisers which are building or
 contracted for.
 This would limit the American
 cruiser strength to a total of 155,- 900 tons as against an estimated
 125.O .OOO tons for Japan and would be
 far from applying the 6-6-3 ration to
 Japan.
 Unlimited Possibilities . Another vital provision of the
 Japanese project is that all ships un-
 der 700 tons are absolutely excluded
 from all limitations. This would im-
 ply. says experts, that Japan could
 build an unlimited number of sub
 marines slightly under TOO tons and
 that these operating in the islands or the Pacific such as tn, Carolines
 of which Japan has mendate. could l cffer formidable resistance to the
 advance of any fleet toward the Far
 East.
 As proof of this contention. 1t is pointed out that during the war Ger
 many utilized number of sub-
 marines under 700 tons which suc- 1 ceeded in crossing the Atlantic. In general, the delegates here rep-
 resenting the political viewpoint re-
 fuse at the present time to admit the
 existence of impossible barriers to a
 successful agreement among the United States, Great Britain and Ja- pan. but the technical experts are
 inclined to see 50 wide a divergence
 of views that the possibility of an agreement with great concessions is
 distinctly remote.

Until recently few people knew
there was more than one Hopi snake
dance a year. There are five every
two years. In numbered years,
next year for instance, there will be
three-the most advertised at Hote-
villa, the others at Shipaulovi and
Chimopavi.
In odd-numbered years the dances
are at Walpi and Mishongnovi, the
first-named being the most adver-
tised.
DR.. Harold S. Cotton and Dr. Frank
C. Baxter, in their new book, days
in the Painted Desert and the San
Francisco Mountains" explain the
nomenclature of the Hopi towns as
follows:
Oraibi, "place of rock"
Mishongnovi, "the place of the other
which remains erect"
Shipaulovi, "the place of the mos
quitoes."
Sichimovi, "the place of the mound
Of the wild currant BUSH"
Walpi, "the place of the cleft"
Chimopavi, the place of chimoa"-
a kind of grass.
Hotevilla was founded by Hopis
from Oraibi who wished to get away
from the influence of the whites.
Bakabi, very near Hotevilla, is a
colony from Oraibi.

Albuquerque. He hadn't applied for
the job He asked permission to re-
main in Arizona for the snake dances,
after which he was ready to tackle
his new job.
Mr.. and Mrs. Buck Lowry and lit
tie daughter were at Oraibi Sunday
from their new trading post at the
site Of the bridge soon to be built at
Lees Ferry over the Colorado. They
are living at ranch on the river bank
and Buck climbs up and down the
dugway every day. He will have a
second post at the far end of the
bridge.
Buck says deer hunters should come
across into the Kaibab this fall, kill
their deer, hang it up overnight, wrap
it up tight all around next morning
and keep it wrapped until they get
back home, when they will find it in
perfect condition. He expects to meet
many of his local friends Kaibab-
bound in October.
1t was wet time for those who at
tended the Walpi snake dance Tues
day. About 20 minutes before the
ceremonies began thunderheads gath
cred in the south and within a few
minutes a doWnpour of rain came. A
few of the more ti1nid made an eff
fort to get under cover but soon came
out of hiding when the dancers APP
peared from the kiva. For about the
first 10 minutes of the dance the rain
continued to pour down without pity
on the 1900 spectators. Nearly every
one was soaked through to the skin,
but all were game and refused to leave
their hard won points of vantage, in
some cases maintained for a period of
over five hours. After the dance no
one made hurried effort to get off
the mesa, realizing that if the washes
were flowing it would do no good to
hurry.

at the snake dances We're noticed:

River Problem
Still In The Air


California delivered to the seven
state Colorado river governors con-
ference Tuesday what was represented
to be that states final proposal for
settlement Of its dispute with Arizona
relative to division of water among
the lower basin states.
1t was said outside the conference
room, just prior to converting the sec
ond day of the meeting, that the Cali
fornia delegation, including Gov. G. C.
Young, would leave for home if Ari-
iona refused to treat on the basis of
fered. Governor Young submitted a
proposal which was rejected by Ari-
iona before it formally came up for
discussion.
Briefly, CALIFORNIA; offer provides:
That Arizona and Nevada be en-
titled to their tributary waters ex-
cept those not used; that Nevada be
allotted 100000 acre feet a year from
the main stream; and that Arizona
and California be given their perfect
ed water rights, the remainder of the
water to be divided equally between
the two.
The proposal drawn at a conference
of the California representatives,
which lasted after midnight, stipulates
that the claim of California under per-
fected rights shall not exceed 259,000
acre feet annually and that of Arizona
233, 800 acre feet. Water so allocated
to either state and not put to benefi-
cial use within 20 years would be sub
ject to appropriation 1.-THE appropri-
ated water chiefly is in the Imperial
! Valley of California and in the Yuma
project of Arizona).
If Arizona, said the proposal, is un-
willing to accept any of these offers,
then California is willing to submit
it's case to an impartial tribunal as
heretofore indicated.
CALIFORNIA; other proposal provided
that the whole question of water divi-
sion in the lower basin be submitted
to commission of nine members, one
member from each of the Colorado
river states and two from the United
States reclamation service, appointed
by President Coolidge.
The plan became the center Of an
attack by members Of the Arizona
delegation and by representatives of
one lower and two upper basin states
who demanded that California adj
vance some concrete, definite" pro-
pOSal 1OT SGLIlSIuGuI u IIlS duSotlOll.
California then contended that its pro-
posal was as definite as that presented
by Arizona and it was only after q
conference that Governor Young an
nounced California would present an
other plan Tuesday.
The California plan comedies with
that of Arizona for equal division Of
the water except for the deduction Of
water obtained under perfected rights
and for the stipulation that each state
should control the appropriation Of
water within their boundaries.
Unlike Gov. Hunts proposal, the
California plan does not make defer
ence to power rights. The Arizona
plan stipulated that the rights of the
states to obtain revenue from and to
control the development of hydro
electric power within or upon their
boundaries, be recognized.
