the Parker-Gtla project was
carried by a vote of forty-flve
to twenty nine.
WASHINGTON, Dec. IA
P-Nearing the final vote on
the Boulder Dam the senate
rejected Hayden's amendment
designed to protect ArizOna's
asserted right to tax power
to be generated at the dam
by a vote of fOrty-two to
thirty-five.
Hayden declared that his
proposal cOnformed with the
wishes Of President Coolidge as
expressed in his annual mes
sage that the states rights
should be protected. The
amendment was opposed by
Senators ShOrtridge and John
son of California who contend
ed that Arizona was already
sufficiently protected. Senator
Walsh Of Montana said he had
no fear that Arizona would
place a cOnfiscatory tax on
the power generated at the
dam inaSmuch as it would
have to similarly tax other
companies. Senator Pittman
expressed no objection to the
amendment, giving the same
reasons as Walsh.
The Senate defeated an
amendment by Black of Ala
bama which would have COM
PEELED the government to re-
imburSe Arizona or Nevada In
an amount equal to taxation
ON privately generated power
in the event the government
sold the power itself.
Another amendment by Hay
den to authorize the Secretary
of the Interior to institute a
survey of the proposed Gia
Valley reclamation project was
adopted with Senator johnson
opposing on the ground he did
not wish to load the bill with
extraneOus matter and would
have no objection to the sur
vey if 1t came up separately.
Ashurst cOntended the Gila
project is an integral part of
the Colorado undertaking.
An amendment providing
that the cost Of the construc-
ton of the AIl-American can
al shall not come out of the
revenues from power generated
at the dam was adopted with
out debate.
An amendment was adopted
without discussion providing
that the Imperial Valley be
exempted from paying carry
ing charges on water from the
cana used for domestic or ir-
rigatiOn purposes, both amend
ments being offered by Pitt
man.
WASHINGTON, Dec. IA,
5:27 PM, Especial to the Age)
Senator Reed Of Pennsyl-
vania offered an amendment

preference to build the power

u. S. Election Is
Followed In France

Paris. Nov. R-The American
presidential election shares equally
with the French ministerial crisis
the columns of the afternoon news
papers. The names of Hoover and
Smith are displayed as prominently
as that of Poincare.
A majority of the papers express
surprise at the magnitude OF Mr..
Hoover's victory. His relief work in
northern France and Belgium dur
ing war time Is made feature,
while there is a tinge of regret over
the disappearance of the hope of an
outlet in the United States for
French wines. The Temps says:
Mr.. Hoover's policy is likely to
be continuation of President
Coolidge's trend in foreign affairs
He incarnates the deepest Puritan
tradition of 100 per cent Ameri-
cans"

PRAISES Smith
Says He Filled Discouraged
Party With Hope

New York. Nov. (UP)-Editor.
ial comment on election Of Herbert
Hoover follows:
The New York Times (independ.>
ent democrat)-(In three editorials)
Mr.. Hoover has scored an elecor.
al victory commensurate with his
previous great reputation. He
has shown the country the engineer
striving to be president Hereafter
1t will be his opportunity to prove
to the people that they have sent
to the White House. not merely
practical engineer, but a full round
ed man equal to the great tasks laid
upon him at home and abroad. In
his work to that end We wish him
all success. Today tho country
returns to its normal course OF life
as a republic in form and function.
but with a fresh realization tina!
after all it is basically a democracy.
As a political achievement
what Governor Smith did In this
campaign must rank high. He took
divided and discouraged party and
filled 1t with hope"
The New York Herald Tribune.
republican-"The verdict at the polls
emphasizes. among other things, the
triumph OF reason over emotion. out
of the recent chaos of thought and
passion, all confused 1t is the power
of thought that has emerged as
swaying the American people, de-
spite the allurements Of platform
eloquence."
The New York World, democrat
THE result is not what We wished
it to be, but it is an indusputable re-
suit. Mr.. Hoover is elected president
of the United States by a clear and
unmistakable decision Of a majority
OF the American people. The world
salutes the winner. It salutes the
next president. 1t wishes him health
strength and good fortune. TO Gov.
crnor Smith we wish to say that hi
can look backward upon this cam.
paign with a good conscience.
He has lost the election but he re-
tires with his flags flying"
