of complaint, now pending before
the U. S. supreme court. Lower
basin states-California and Nevada
will make their own reply.
This is not a split" explained
William w. Ray, Utah counsel,
but the best method to handle
the separate problems of the diff
ferent groups
Separate Claims
Arizona demands 100000 acre
feet OF water annually, plus the
entire flow of the ella water. A
compact signed by the other six
states at Santa Fe, N. NJ. with
Arizona absent, gave her a share
with California and Arizona in this
amount Of water.
Ray said the two answers would
permit separate contentious to be
made in the answers from the two
areas.
This is the best method we can
find towards opposing Arizona's
complaint which asks leave to file
suit he said.
Broadly speaking, the answers
will attack Arizona's petition on
grounds that there is insufficiency
for a suit brought by Arizona.
Answer Drawn
We have come to the conclu-
sion there should be no jurisdic-
ton by the supreme court TO pro-
mote the idea that she is being
refused adequate water rights"
The dual course of action was
decided upon after the upper basin
states representatives met in a
conference at which details for
their answer were drawn up.
Ray refused to reveal the de
tails, since the supreme court pre-
viously has refused to accept briefs
when their contents have been
made public.
Upper basin states then called
lower basin states into executive
session. and minor corrections were
made in the answer.
Ray said there were no major
conflicts between the two replies.
They differ only in problems
concerning the two localities" he
said
Upper basin states then returned
TO conference to perfect their an
sWer.

witnesses Sought
New witnesses in the crowded
park when the baby was stolen
also were sought and the child'S
brothers, Charles, 9, and Edward,
7, who said Baby Harry was taken
while "a lady in blue" sent them
to a nearby store to buy ice cream
and candy, were to be reques-
toned.
Collins said the children might
have neglected to tell police of
some minor detail which might
give them a new starting point in
their investigation. The police
also asked all persons in the park
Saturday afternoon who had not
reported to authorities to come
forward.
The child was stolen while the
swings and slides in the park were
filled with romping children,
horseshoe courts and checker
tables crowded with men, and
pathways and benches occupied
by many women. Police we're at
a loss to explain how the child
could have been snatched without
more people than the handful of
witnesses who reported seeing
them.

DETROIT, Sept. II QN.SO
Police and parents of the kidnapped
Baby Harry Browe today moved
to offer safe conduct to the kid
napers if they will return the 20
monthS-old child.
Deputy Chief of Detectives Will
liam j. Collins, admitting police
were as far from solution OF
the case as when the baby was
stolen from its buggy in Clark
Park last Saturday, issued the
following appeal:
"Our chief interest is in the
safe return of the baby. If he
is in the hands of kidnaperS
who fear to return him because
it would endanger their own
safety, 1 am appealing to them
to turn the boy over to any
clergyman they choose"
Collins pointed out it would be
impossible for police to watch the
homes of all clergymen, and said
Gin that way the kidnaperS will
be reasonably safe from detec-
ton"
Plea From Father
Robert Browe, the father. Joined
Collins in pleading with the kid
napers and appealed to the public
not to gather in front of his home.
He said:
ever since our son has been
missing our home has been the
attraction of hundreds of curl
Gus persons. 1t would be very
hard for anyone to approach us
with so many around. am
asking the curious to stay away.
We appreciate their sympathy,
but we want to make it as easy
as possible for the baby's re-
turn"
More than 10000 police circu-
lars describing the missing baby
and his kidnaperS were sent out to
$500 cities throughout the United
States today as baffled police and
Omen hunted new clues in the
strange case.
Collins directed police to search
through all rubbish heaps in the
city today on the theory the child
might have been killed, and a
check also was being made of all
anonymous tips and crank letters
