By DYKE WILLIAMS United Press Staff Correspondent PHOENIX. Aria. (UP) A bitter legislative battle over a billion dol lar prize Is foreseen for the twelfth state legislature as result of the newest settlement plan for the pro longed Colorado river dispute. With announcement from Wash ington by Secretary of the Interior Harold Ickes that construction of the Parker dam In Arizona will await a water and power settlement, poli ticians have prepared tor the strug gle that has disrupted Arizona poli tics for 16 years. Man Abandon Claim Whether the state will abandon claim to the right of appropriating 5,000,000 acre feet of water or more from the river In excess of the 3. 800,000 acre feet proposed by. Secre tary Ickes under the Santa Pe com pact and Boulder dam construction act, may be decided In the legislative meeting convening Jan. 14. The Issue involves abandonment. or adherence to the hope of Irrigat ing upwards of 3,700,000 acres, pro posed by the State River commis sion. Claims of Opposition Foes of the Interior Department- Arizona river contract claim that at least 6,000,000 acres la irrigable from a Olen Canyon-Verde diversion pro ject, and that unused and unusable water in other states Is more than 10.000.000 acre feet of Colorado waste water Bubject to appropriation un der present laws. Figuring also In the struggle will be the oft-repeated allegation of a plan of American capitalists to Ir rigate a fertile delta atrip In Mexico below the International line. Arizona extremists who favor Irrigation of the largest acreage and oppose any contract on water or power allege that limitations on use by various American statea are designed to de liver the water unused to Mexico, where it may be diverted cheaply.
