BEGINNING IN SIGHT

Nearer and nearer draws the day when actual
work of building Boulder dam will begin.
Signing of the Colorado river proclamation by
President Hoover yesterday sets the preliminary steps
going although it will be another six months before
construction bids are received power leases let
In expressing the hope that Arizona will now Join
other states in the river compact, President Hoover
voiced the desires of all who interested in Boulder
canyon dam development. Arizona has nothing to
gain by her attitude; has had nothing to gain for
long time Her threats to take action in the courts
while accepted genuine not seriously alarming
The compact has had the benefit of the best legal
minds in the country including final analysis by the
attorney general of the United States before President
Hoover signed the proclamation. 1t is not likely that
the compact will be found faulty if Arizona does go
court about it.
The President also pointed out that failure to agree
on the water rights had held up development for Is
years Arizona would continue this delay if possible
With DR.. Mead and Secretary Wilbur now on the
coast working out plan for power contracts there is
every reason to believe that they will be successful
and the contracts will be duly executed before the time
comes for calling for bids the actual construction.
