Government to Open
Its Case in Water
Rights on August 5
By VERNON BAKER
Unilsd Pihi Correspondent
San Francisco OK When the
government opens its case in the
Colorado river water suit It In
tends to prove that the water
rights of reservation Indians in
the arid Southwest are superior
to those of the five states In the
lower river basin.
David E. Warner, attorney for
the government, announced his
intentions Friday as Special Su
preme Court Master Simon H.
Rifkind released the hearings
until Aug. S.
Warner said the United States
would present evidence concern
ing each of 28 southwestern In
dian reservations and would
show the Indians had superior
claims to water for not Only
present use, but future needs.
Brings Reaction
His statement brought a sud
den reaction from attorneys for
the various states involved.
Mark Wiimer of Arizona said
that the documents the govern
ment plans to present concern
ing the irrigability of Indian
lands "strike directly at the en
tire economy of Arizona and j
cannot be treated in the same
casual treatment given some
from California."
California chief counsel North
eutt Ely said that if Warner
claimed Indian rights not charge
able to the state in which the
water was used, it was Califor
nia's position that the water for
Indians should be charged to
both the upper and lower basins.
Possible Transfer
Meanwhile Rifkind announced
that on Aug. S he would make
known his decision whether the
complex water suit would be
transferred-to New York for fur
ther hearing.
Rifkind said he "was not pre
pared at this time either to di
rect the transfer of the case to
New ' Yprk and override the
views of some, nor am I pre
pared to say the case will stay
here."
He said he suggested the move
because he was4 "eager to expe
dite the suit" and in New York
hearings could be held on a
"day-to-day basis."
The move was objected to
strongly by Nevada, New Mex
ico and Utah. Ely said Califor
nia and Arizona were willing
to send a "task force to New
York if it meant expediting
hearing of the case."

milk and butter in the next few
years.

was more than fulfilled by all
branches of the economy, "even
the traditional laggards like the
timber and fish industries."
The economic report contain
ed for the first time hard figures
about production, instead of the
usual vague percentages used In
the past..
