K. K. K. THREATENS
LIFE OF WALTER COHEN I
(Special to The Tribune)
New Orleans, La. —Federal authori
ties were called upon today to make
rigid investigation into the writing oi
anonymous and threatening letters
to Walter L Cohen, Negro, recently
named comptroller of customs for the
Louisiana port, as a recess appoint
ment by President Harding. Not only
were the threatening letters sent to
Mr. Cohen, but Emile Kuntz, republi
can collector of customs, and others
of the officials about the offices here
were warned that should Cohen take
the position, they too would be dealt
violence.
The letters, which have been turn
ed over to the post office Inspectors,
threatened death for Collector Kuntz,
in event the nomination of Cohen is
confirmed by the senate, while others
declared Cohen would be killed should
he be confirmed.
Signed "K. K. K„” and "White
Supremacy."
Several of the letters were signed
“K. K. K.,” while others which were
sent, to Collector Kuntz protested to
the appointment of white women in
the same office with Negroes and was
signed “White Supremacy.”

ARIZONA DEVELOPMENT OF
COLORADO RIVER—EASIER
WITHOUT THE PACT
THE DEFEAT OF THE COMPACT OPENS THE
WAY TO FILE ON AND DEVELOP IN ARI
ZONA THE GLEN CANYON COLORADA GILA
RECLAMATION AND POWER PROJECT.
THE LARGEST IN THE WORLD.”
BY SENATOR FRED T. COLTER
PUBLISHER'S NOTH.- Tile practical experience of Fred T. Col
ter in reclaiming Arizona lancte is, perhaps the most extensive of any
in the State, as he has built and put under operation six of his own
private reclamation projects. He has frequently sacrificed his person
al interests in his effors in behalf of Arizona, and the sincerity of his
purpose is unquestioned.
Arizona won her greatest victory
by defeating th e Colorado River
Compact as formulated at Santa Fe,
New Mexico; thereby retaining her
inherent rights in the irrigation
waters and electric power sites in
the Grand Canyon of the Colorado
i Gila River. These rivers open the
way for Arizona’s development of
j the largest reclamation and power
project in th e world.
There is not a single avenue the
Pact provides that we do not al
ready have better provisions,
quicker and more equitable means
whether it is to file on, develop or
any act in Arizona on the Colorado
river or settle any disputes, or have
conference with any one or six
other states, not mentioning the
rights we relinquished under the
Pact.
The Pact takes away from Ari
zona and give to Mexico's Foreign
and b*g land owners and prohibits
the many Proposed projects from
using the surplus waters.
In addition to complicating Ari
zona’s power sites, the pact de
cides definately only two points:lt
makes clear Mexico's allocation of
water. It also defines that th 0 upper
basin states shall have 3even and
one half million acre feet, and
eight and on e half million acre feet
in the lower basin states, (includ
ing the Gila rives in the lower basi”
states). The states of each basin
must decide their different alloca
tions, and herein lies many dis
putes and endless litigation. Under
the Pact surplus water goes to Mex
ico as well a sthe return flow and

seepage water. (The lower basin
cannot possibly take the surplus,
again in Article VIII of the Pact as
states.) but Mexico’s allocation to
millions of acres must be main
tained at the expense of both the
upper and lower basin states, even
to the appropriation of the water
of the Gila river for this purpose.
This is plainly stated in the Pact
in Article 3. paragraph C., as fol
lows: “If such surplus shall prove
insufficient fir this purpose, the
burden of the dlfflciency shall ho
borne equally by the upper and
lower basin.’ God only knows how
far reaching this provision may be,
Mexico’s big land monopolists could
even take the waters from the com
pleted projects as well as from the
State. Neither can the many propos
ed projects utilise the surplus
waters.
Possible Development Enormous
Without the Pact and Great pros
perity to the entire State and the
Salt River Valley Immediate.
Under the Grand Canyon Gila
High Lin e Project, the largest In
the world, more than a million
acres surrounding Phoenix and near
by towns with their paved roads
extending in all directions, as well *
as millions mor e scattered over the
State would be placed under per
petual production. Over a million
and a qharter horse power of elec
tricity can be generated in the
Main high line canal, which will
pay for the entire project. Imagine
if you can, the tremendous develop
ment incident to the accomplish
ment of this gigantic scheme. Im
agine the millions of capital and
people coming here to take advan
tage of cheap power and to secure
the reclaimed state and public
lands, also patented lands. It means
the building of large manufactur
mg concerns, automobile plants,
new cities and towns, Capital and
people come immtdlately to places
where big enterprises are under
way.
Progress & Prosperity or Delay
and Panic. Established Priority Ee
sentlai.
Shall we immediately postpone
and delay this progress by entering
into a Pact, which would only com
plicate and deprive us of our rights
or shall we form a prigresslv e or

The eyes of the Pythians of Geor

trust, fears and the talk of graft is in
much evidence.
B J. Davis, a prpminent business
