Be Cancelled Unless States
Compromise.
BY the Associated Press.

BY the Associated Press
Three States, Colorado. Nebraska and
Wyoming. are now in controversy over
proposed division of the waters OF the
North Platte River in connection with
the proposed Casper-Alcova irrigation
project approved by the Publlc WOrKS
Administration.
The administration held a closed
session here yesterday at which advo-
Gates of all three States put forth their
claims Unless a compromise is reached.
the administration will consider to-
morrow the advisability of canoeing the
So 100000 allotment for this project.
The hearing was held at the request
of Gov. Johnson of Colorado. He Is
not opposed to the Casper -AlcOva pro-
ject. but sought the hearing to make
public his States claims to equities IN
water rights on the North Platte.
Wyoming's claims to water tights were
advanced by Senator Kendrick of that
State and those of Nebraska by Arthur
Mullen, Roy Cochran. State engineer.
and R H. Willis, chief of the Bureau
OF Irrigation.
Paul Prosser Colorado attorney gen.
eral, who represented Gov. johnson, lett
no doubt that Colorado would carry its
fight for water equities to the Supreme
Court of the United States if COM
pact were not agreed to on water
rights between the three before work on
the Casper-Alcova began. He con-
tended Colorado is entitled to 40 per
cent of the 66OO0-acre feet of water
originating annually in the State. An
acre foot is one acre of water one foot
deep.
To defend Wyomings claim to enough
water to make possible the Casper
cova project. Kendrick called upon Ell
wood Mead, chief of the Reclamation
Bureau. to whom the Public Works
Administration has turned over funds
for the project. Mead testified IN favor
OF it and said it would right an injus-
tice" done wyoming in the past in the
division of water in irrigation projects.
Cochran said Nebraska could not
agree to any transmountain transfer

STATE ATTACKS
WATER FIRMS
RATE FIGURES
$2,600,000 Appraisal for
Going Value ASSaiIed
by HufSmith.

The Indianapolis Water Compa-
nys appraisal figure Of $1,000 900 for
going value was under fire today
in the company's federal court suit
for higher rates
The attack was conducted by
George w. Hufsmith, deputy attor-
ney-general, during cross-examina-
ton again Of George w Fuller, con-
sulting engineer.
Fuller testified that in his opin-
ion the going value item should
equal 10 per cent of the reproduce
ton cost of the companys phys
ical property
His testimony developed that the
$500 600 item represented his
theory of the cost of operating ex-
penses while the plant was being
reproduced and tuned up, on the as
sumption that the plan would be
completed in its entirety before a
single consumer would be served.
Assured by Hufsmith
This theory was attacked by HUFF
smith who charged it unreasonable
TO assume that the company would
be receiving no revenue until the day
Of completion, and then, in one day,
start serving 10000 consumers.
Hufsmith continued his question
ing of the witness on this theory
OF depreciation at the start of to-
days session.
Fuller, Tuesday afternoon, implied
that little, if anything should be
allowed for depreciation on the COM
panys operating equipment.
His appraisal is based, he said, on
the theory that the depreciation
figure represents the cost of putting
the equipment in efficient operating
condition again.
During his testimony, he eX-
pressed the opinion that some of
the pumps and other equipment, in
use many years, should be good for
at least another 100 years.
Three Separate Appraisals
Fuller last week submitted three
separate appraisals of the property,
ranging from nearly $28,0O00OO to
nearly $30,0OOOOO. The company is
suing to enjoin the rate making val
Uation Of 225OO,0O0 set by the pub
lie service commission last Deem
Der
In an attempt to discredit Full
er's appraisal figures, Hufsmith
questioned him about two pumps,
side by side, at the Riverside pump
ing station.
One, the Davis pump, huge APP
paratus standing two stories high,
erected in 1905, is appraised at
$4,000 as its replacement cost.
This pump, Hufsmith sought to
show, is obsolete and could not be
replaced, even if desired.
The other known as the De
Laval pump, installed a few years
ago, is smaller than a small auto
mobile and cost $4,000
Fuller admitted that the small
new pump has a capacity of 100000
600 gallons of water a day, 100000
gallons more than the awe-inspiring
1929 900 giant beside it.
Only 5000 depreciation was al
lowed by Fuller he testified on a
100000 gallon reservoir at the Riv-
erside plant, constructed in 1925.
The Iryington tank, built two
years ago, and for which no de
probation was allowed, may be
standing and used 200 years from
now, the witness suggested.
He admitted that in making his
appraisal for the company, he had
not taken into consideration life of
the equipment, merely its present
condition.
