Malone's Plan
For Division of
Water Discussed


WASHINGTON, June 10. W.D-A
tentative ALLEGATION of Colorado riv-
er water giving Arizona ana Cali
fornia each 6,250000 acre feet and
Nevada 100000 acre feet was being
considered in executive session by
commissioners from the three
states here today.
Under terms of this proposed
agreement California and Arizona
would share jointly any future bur-
den imposed by Mexican demands
for water.
This new plan of dividing the
Colorado River waters was worked
out by a private session of COM
misSioners and engineers earlier to-
day. George w. Malone, Nevada
commissioner and engineer, was
said to be its author.
The proposed ALLEGATION would
divide all available water in the
Colorado basin including that from
such disputed tributaries as the
Gila River III Arizona.
WASHINGTON, June 10, UP
Colorado River commissioners and
engineers from California and Ari-
zona met in executive session here
today, with the result of their con-
ference generally considered as hav-
ing an important bearing on the
fate of the tri-state pact on the
distribution of water for the three
lower basin states.
California was represented by
John L. Bacon, chairman of the
states delegation and A. H. Favour
represented Arizona. The meeting
was held at the home of Colonel
William j. Donovan, government
referee.
Later today, California, Arizona
and Nevada representatives were to
meet to consider the results of the
executive conference. Geo. w. Ma
lone, Nevada commissioner, already
HIS indicated his willingness to ac-
cept the 100000 acre feet of water
tentatively allowed to his state.

an eleven which Glands head and

place more than one man upon the

while Bucknell, Cornell, Harvard,

AS for the wing-men, Joe Don

Maryland, rangy siX-footer, would
be ranked with the greatest of all
time had he been on a nationally
recognized team.
Jap Douds of Washington and

the east this season. Captain Sam
