Citizens Discover
They Can't Give
Away States Land

PHOENIX, Jan. 10. (UP)-A COM
mlttee of defenSe-minded Tucson
ans who wanted to give the army
large tract of land for use as a
bombing range was slightly embar-
rassed today.
They learned to their consterna-
ton that the land they had offered
to give away didn't belong to the
city at all-it was the property of
the state of Arizona.
State Land Commissioner william
Alberts said the land in question,
amounting to 20 sections, was pur-
chased about 10 years ago by a
group of prominent Tucson resi-
dents who in turn turned it over to
the city government, which was
prohibited by law from making the
purchase.
The city, it appeared, had made
payments amounting TO only 5000
but was delinquent N the amount
of S5l 800.
Slightly taken aback, the Tucson
committee asked Alberts if the state
would give them the title to as
much of the 20 sections of land
as their $4,000 in payments en-
titled them. But Alberts was dubious
and referred the matter to the at

Internal Squabb|e
Threatens Arizona
Power Ambitions

PHOENIX, Jan. 10. CUP)-Op-
ponents of the Osborn administra-
ton were reported today to have
prepared a power and water bill
by which they hope to sidetrack
passage of the governors proposed
Arizona power authority legislation
during the 18th state legislature,
meeting Monday for a 60 day ses-
sion. -
The administrations power bill,
set forth in the 1910 Democratic
platform, was reported virtually
completed and was expected to be
introduced in the legislature within
the first 10 days of the 60 day meet
ing.
An associate of the governor,
however, expressed some concern
over the opposition power bill. He
said it did not contain many ben
eficial" provisions of the admins
tration bill. chiefly those dealing
with transmission and resale OF
Boulder Dam power.
He charged the opposition bill was
being circulated with the allegation
that it had the governors mark of
approval.
Our bill is not being circulated
because it isn't finished yet" the
spokesman said.
The governor, meanwhile, went
ahead with work on his message to
the legislature. He has already in
dicated that this message will fol-
low closely the many suggested re-
forms and legislative proposals con-
tanned in the Democratic party
platform on which he was elected.
