said I feel sure the farmers in the

ditions and are opposed to the

PREJUDICE FADES
Undoubtedly much of the pre-
judice against California which
actuates Utahns in supporting the
treaty. has been removed by reason
of this trip" MalmqQuist said in
summing up the effects of the tour
and conversations with district Of
ficials and citizens and farmers in
general

that Utah will be found in line
opposing the treatys ratification, :"
said the official spokesman for the
party. but I can say that several
members of the group have had the
whole matter clarified and have
found much to remove the element
of prejudice"
Malmquist reviewed the attitude
of Utahns and summed up the in
formation they gained on the trip
at a conference Sunday night at
the Barbara Worth hotel where all
parties sat down to talk the matter
over.
For one thing. we gained a
different view of the Pilot Knob
power plant proposition" said Malm-
quist.
LACKED FULL INFORMATION
For some reasons Utahns never
had full and frank information on
that matter. 1t has been one of the
main points in urging that Califor-
MIA wanted to hog the river" and
1t has been openly said in Utah
that California planned to develop
power there nd sell it cheaply to
Mexico in competition with the
production at Boulder Dam"
1t was pointed out to the Utahns
that the Pilot Knob project is for
protection when the canal drops
may not produce sufficient power
undre the present set-up.
The party earlier had conferred
with officials of the Yuma Water
Users association. studied the Gila
