That is the question posed and answered by Assistant Commissioner Reclamation William E. Warne in Corralling the Colorado, Part II, featured article in the November issue of the Reclamation Era, official publication of the Bureau of Reclamation. Not quite half of the water of the Colorado river is now being used, according to a comprehensive report on the river basins water resources development, it was pointed out. (The report was recently submitted by the bureau to Interior Secretary J. A. Krug and copies can now be obtained by writing to the Bureau of Reclamation, 32 Exchange Salt Lake City 1, place. Utah). One hundred and thirty-fou- r potential projects for irrigation, power production, and other beneficial uses of Colorado River water described in the report could figure in a second stage development, Warne said, explaining that 100 are in the upper basin where the lesser development occurred during the first stage. Tracing the history of the Colorado River Compact, completed Nov. 24, 1922 in Santa Fe, N. Mex., the articles shows that this famous agreement has borne as fruit, the Boulder canyon project and the entire first sctage of development of the Colorado River, including construction of Boulder, Daand Imperial vis, Parker dams, the canal, the Colorado river aqueduct and the Gila and irrigation Big Thompson projects. The article cites the Mexican water treaty and the Colorado River compact as tried and proven methods of negotiating interstate water agreements. These are a happy augury for the success of present negotiations of the Upper Colorado river compact commission representing Colorado, Wyoming, Utah, New Mexico and Arizona in further division of Colorado river waters, it implies. Further division is second before necessary stage evelopment can go forward. This development should start from the year 1946, said Warne, the Department of Interior and the Bureau o f Reclamation standing ready to assist all interests in composing differences and arriving at a mutual anplan. He envisioned other billion-doll- ar era of development as the sequel to successful negotiation of an upper basin compact. Every state and every locality of the basin will reap rich rewards and the entire nation will benefit from a sound second stage of development, Warne predicted.

Developed areas in Arizona require supplemental water to stave off sharp curtailment of growth and production.
