PIERCE-ARROW MOTOR
CO. PASSES DIVIDEND

BUFFALO, N Y, Aug 90 R)-The
board of directors of the Pierce-Arrow
Motor Car company decided today to
suspend the company's preferred divi-
dend.
President Myron T. Forbes said:
Passenger car sales for the year have
been about equal to last years sales.
During the year, however, we made a
drastic reduction in our prices with
corresponding decrease in our profit
per unit. The demand for heavy
trucks has had a falling off which,
however, we believe to be only tenn
porary. This has resulted in throwing
an extra burden of overhead on our
passenger car business which is re-
Elected in current earnings. We, there
fore, deem it the part of conservative
management to omit the preferred
dividend"

State Rights Loom
IN Power Problem
IN R1uer Conference

DENVER, Colo, Aug, 30, R)--
Coupled with the first formal con-
sideration of the power question i'll
connection with the construction OF
the proposed Boulder Canyon dam,
state sovereignty again came before
the seven state Colorado river Gov
ernorS' conference today in the form
of a resolution drafted by Senator
Key Pittman of Nevada.
Declaring for a states legal right
to demand and achieve compensa-
ton for the use of it's lands and
waters and for state ownership OF
navigable streams and their beds and
banks, the resolutions adoption was
forestalled by the California delega-
tion which asked for more time to
consider it. California's request, made
by w. B. Mathews, river commits
sioner, was echoed by Francis Will
son. New Mexico state engineer, Ed
ward T. Taylor, congressman from
Colorado's fourth district, Senator
Wallace of Utah and Governor
Frank c.. Emerson of Wyoming,
California's objection to immediate
consideration was looked upon as
fleralding a fight on the resolution
when it comes to a vote in open
conference. New Mexico Colorado,
Utah and Wyoming, while endorsing
the principals set forth by Senator
Pittman, expressed the opinion that
the water-division controversy be-
tween California and Arizona should
be settled before the power question
and states rights are taken up.
Senator Pittman declared that
a dam is built by the United States
"the state or states upon whose land
government or whose waters are
used in connection with dam built
to generate hydro-electric energy are
entitled to the prior right to acquire
the energy or to acquire the use OF
such dam upon undertaking to pay
to the United States government the
charges that may be made for such
energy or the use of such DAM"

man said in 45-minute speech

PRESIDENT WILL
Be ASKED O.. K.
ON N. v. PROJECT
Senator Jones of Washing
tom Will Lay Plan
Before Coolidge

RAPID CITY, S. D., Aug. 20 R)-
Approval of project to reclaim vast
area of territory in the Columbia river
basin will be asked of President Cool
idge tomorrow by a delegation of coast
state citizens headed by Senator Jones
of Washington.
The delegation will be received by
the president in the morning and will
explain the project which Senator
Jones described as probably one OF
the largest reclamation proposals in
the United States whose ultimate de-
velopment is of vital Importance to
the state of Washington"
Arriving late today by automobile,
Seantor Jones declared that he also
might suggest an extra session of the
senate to Mr.. Coolidge to give plenty
of time for disposal of the Smith and
Ware election contests. He said he saw
no reason for an extra session of con-
greSS but that time would be saved by
convening the senate about month
ahead.
The washington senator reported
that tlb people of his state have come
to regard the presidents statement
that he does not choose to run for re-
election as an emphatic disavowal and
added that in Washington there was
no move to draft Mr.. Coolidge in spite
of his pronouncement.
Senator Jones said Washington Was
overwhelmingly" for Secretary Hoov-
er for the republican presidential
nomination The Washington delega-
ton to the national convention, he felt,
would be for Hoover but would be un-
instructed.
| In a general way, Mr. Coolidge in
dorsed the Columbia river project three
years ago in a message to the Ameri-
can mining congress and while the
delegation realizes he has not definite
ly committed himself, they hope to
obtain his approval and promise OF
support in the next congress. The
project, it is said, would reclaim thou
sands of acres of land for agriculture.
Coming to his desk today after a
weeks absence in Yellowstone park,
Mr.. Coolidge found an accumulation
| of work and cut his calling list to dis
pose of it.
Meanwhile, plans are going ahead for
the presidents departure for Wash
1ngCOn, SepCeIHper .. 1uG AO1IOWnAs'
day he will have an opportunity to
discuss any reaction to farm relief he
may have gained from his summer in
the west when he speaks at Brook
ings, S. D., dedicating the Lincoln
memorial library at the state agri-
cultural college.
The present plans call for his ar
rival in Washington late Sunday,
September II.
