Suggestion Of British Said to Be
 Impossible"

Washington. May l6 R-A sug- gestion from the British government that temporary extension of the Root Bryce arbitration treaty of 1905 for ! period of six or eight months beyond June 1 next. when the treaty expires be brought about hy the exchange Of notes between the two governments. has been found impossible by the United States.
 The question was taken up with Secretary Kellogg several days ago by the British ambassador. Sir Esme Howard. who pointed out that his government had not found itself in agreement in all respects with the provisions of the Kellogg arbitration 1 treaty, submitted in draft by the United States on December 29, to replace the expiring Root-Bryce 1 treaty.
 As submitted to Great Britain. the draft treaty was practically the same in its provisions as that signed with France and ratified by the Senate. and those signed subsequen- ly with Germany and Italy. These treaties. as does the draft treaty submitted to Great Britain. omit 1 the clause of the Root treaty which excludes from their scope questions affecting the vital interests, the independence or the honor" of the contracting states.
 l Specifically excluded among other things are disputes and subject mat ter of which depends upon or tn- wolves the maintenance of the Mon- 1 roe Doctrine.
 England Confcrring The British Government, 1t was said. is conferring with it's self governing dominions and discussing with them the details of the draft treaty's provisions. Those discus sions are taking considerable time and it was deemed advisable by the London Foreign office to extend the Root-Bryce treaty temporarily ! It was not indicated whether the do- minions alone were responsible for tho British governments failure to find itself in agreement with the provisions of the treaty.
 In finding it impossible to consider temporary extension of the treaty by an exchange of notes. Secretary Kellogg is understood to have insist ed that the only way the treaty could be extended would be for the negotiation of an agreement, which would have to be ratified by the sen- ate. extending the convention for the full period of five years provided in the treaty itself. Unless this is done the treaty will lapse and the two na- tions would be without general ar- bitration agreement until a new treaty satisfactory to both countries could be negotiated, signed and rati- fed.

employed and the supports were
constructed in the granite walls

could ascertain. that bridge
was constructed in that manner
Material had 70 be trucked 1855

ing the ancient ferry that has
served northern Arizona and south
ern Utah dwellerS since white
men first began to travel the un-
charted area of the Painted Des-
ert, the Lees Ferry bridge, highest
structure of its kind in the world
is to be formally put into use
with elaborate dedication cere-
monies next June. The bridge
will open up a great eXpanse OF
country and eventually result in
a direct mountain states automo-
bile route from Canada to Mexico.
Located at the upper reaches
of the Grand Canyon in the wild,
unsettled portion of northern Ari-
goa. the bridge will provide for
the first time a handy route of
transportation between Arizona and
Utah. 1t will be the only bridge
crossing the Colorado river in
Arizona north of Topoc, near
Needles. Cal, and will provide
an easy way for tourists from
Arizona to reach Bryce Canyon,
Zion National Park, and Rainbow
Natural Bridge, in southern Utah;
the north rim of the Grand Can
yon and the great virgin forests
in northern Arizona, and for
travellers through southern Utah
to visit the Painted Desert, south
rim of the Grand Canyon, petri-
fled forests and other natural Won
derS in Arizona.
It is expected to open up trade
and traffic between Utah and Ari-
zona, neighboring states that have
been separated by the great cleft
known as one of the seven wonders
of the world. 1t will be a means
toward developing commerce and
of opening a vast land that is
known to hardly anybody except
the Hopi Indians. who roam the
| desert.

be more rigid than the suspension,
