Chief Executive Gives Views on Boulder Darn DERN OFFERS FUN FOR COOPERATIVE DEVELOPMENT OF RIVER Insists Hut Utshs Rights be Protected in the Matter. Executive Would Have Surplus Power Earnings Set Aside For Reclamation Use. ITtih'a chli? executive favor, a flant plan by which tha aiate, of tho Colorado baaln can develop themaalvoa without Infringement upon tha rights of othcra ha Indicates In a letter to Senator William H. Kins the Boulder dam hill. regarding Governor Deni favora safeguarding rights of tha upper baaln states "'for tha Swing Johnson bill is jutaeed. Ha adds, however, that if there was any immediate danger of the river being opened to private concern, he would boost for the Swing Johnson bill and take Uis chances on having the upper baaln states get a square deal. He 'calls attention to the fact that the power commission can do nothing with ".be river until Juna 0, 1929. deConcerning hla velopment Idea Governor Dern ays: It would be perfectly' consistent with California's, position to make the Swing Johnson bill provide that the surplus earnings, after interest snd amortisation hare been set sside. shsll go Into a revolving fund, to be used for the construction of additional projects in the othur states. Even under thst arrangement, California will be given by Tar the hrst-o- f it, for the bill enables her to moke her ultimate development at once. Why should the federal government be lees Interested in Utah, Wyoming, Colorado and New Mexico than in California? Commissioner Wallace and I have for the past two years ( had that plan m mind and ws have discussed g it at great length. Besides the favoritism sow contained In the Swing Johneon bill, it will make t possible for the upper states to put their share of the water to benefleial use within a reasonable period, and thereby more firmly fix their rights to it The reason why I have not pressed this develplsn far a great opment of the river is that, in my opinion, it does not completely harmonise with my theory of the rights of the stairs. You sre a were that I claim that the states own the waters of their streams, and also that they own the beds of navigable streams where the federal government has not exercised its permanent right to regulate tha stream for interstate and foreign commerce. It dues not seem to mo that it would be cunrlatent with this theory for us to ask that the profits of a power plant using land and water belonging to Arixona. and Nevada should o turned over to the upper states. I believe a comprehensive and cooperative development of the ent're Cuiuradu river basin would be a wise and statesmanlike program, and would be tho soundest national policy. From my theory this should be brought about by mutual agreement among the states . From the theory of those who claim that thaIt federal government can do as pleases with tho Colorado river, It ought to be done by Congreea My suggestion therefore is that if you find that the Swing Johnson MU is likely to pass, you attempt to have It amended in the manner I have indicated. mlni-.ntisin- Nellie noinn Ross LOS ANGELES. Mrs. NelTayloa Ross, former governor ef Wyoming, issued a atatament dsnylng that she li .had referred to tha candidacies of Senators Thomas J. Walsh of Montana and James Rsed of Missouri for tho Democratic prasldsntlal nomination la a alighting manner. Mrs. Ross is In California campaigning In the state's presidential primary In sup port of the candidacy of Gov. Alfred E. Smith of New York for tho Democratic nomination. Her statement read: Never havo I used the word 'obscure' in relation to ellhnr Senator Reed or Senator Walsh, or declared them little thought of by voter,.' On the contrary, in every California speech I have referred to them as Democrats of n-wide renown and never have I failed to pay tribute In emphatic terms to their strong qualities of mind and character and their records of publlo service. I have stressed the fact, however, that Qov.

Numerous witnesses, told the committee they were not permitted to leave the camp; that they were guarded and mistreated by coal and Iron policemen; that they drew little, if any money on paydays, end that "brass money" a metal strip was old to them at the rate of $7 worth for an assignment of $10 on their high-power- Mate-color- ed wage Witnesses testified that vice flourished within the camp and that living quarters provided for the workmen were insanitary and vrrmlnlnfevled. Ralph Blymer, an overseas veteran questioned by the committee, said h would not testify unless II, F. Schommer,' camp hose was ordered to retire. Senator Wheelri told Bchoinmer to leave. When Schommer hesitated Senator Gooding, irritated, ordered the camp boss to "get out and stay out," and then th senator added: "I'm tired of having you aug' gest answers to witnesses." It was then Blymer told hi story, 'The workmen here ere nothing but slsvyi." Blymer said. "I've worked two months end haven't drawn a penny.

Peter Miller, n boy of 17, corroborated Blymer's story, and told of brass money, moonshine and "camp women." Miller said lie had put in forty days in tho mines but "Just statements,'' he smelted, had not received a penny in in tha pay envelopes." Other witneeeea told etories of many days of labor, but no pay; of bootlegging Joints snd houses of prostitution operated on company property, and of professional gambling games operated nightly. The senators found the crap tables Just like those used la St. Louie county and they found the filth end the vermin in the bunk house. Th unmarried men are quartered in barracks rooms, eight feit wide and fourteen feet long, each room housing sixteen men, who sleep In double-decke- d bunks. "Why Is this place so filthy?" Senator Wagner asked. Because the men come nut of tho mine ad go to bed without washing," Schommer answered. "Did you ever del-iu- t this place? Wlierler asked. no does "It good." Schommer said, the new men bring them in wHh them.' The committee obtained some of the "braaa money." which, is sold in denominations of a dollar, fifty cents, a quarter, a nickel and a penny.
