LINCOLN. Nfb., . Alichaol J. Doherty, of St Paul, »)Me-tinie law partner of Justiee Plprc. Butler of the U: S. supreme court is the key figure in one of the mos - . important lawsuits in the history of western

irrigation controversies.

Doherty was appointed by the fourt to serve as special master in chancery in Nebraska’s suit against Wyoming over diversion of North Platte river water. Nebraska named only Wyoming as defendant, but Colorado was granted permission by the court to intervene as a defend-

ant.

Doherty began taking testimony in the case at Licoln on July 14. Attorneys predicted that the testimony presentation would require several months and that the case would not

be decided before two years.

Nebraska and Wyoming considered the case of such important that legislatures of both states made special appropriations to meet legal costs.

Nebraska set aside $50,000.

Special counsel for Nebraska is Paul F. Good, a Rhodes scholar and

attorney general at complaint was filed.

he North Platte river rises in the North Park region of the Colorado Rockies, meanders northward into Wyoming ami then veers southeast to join the South Platte river at

North Platte. Neb.

Although it is an interstate stream, use of its waters for irrigation purposes is controlled by the irrigation departments of the three states, principally Wyoming and Nebraska. Nebraska is seeking an adjudication of the rights of its water users atnd wants an interstate administration of the rive* - on the basis of prioriy. In other words. Nebraska ■contends that the Wyoming state engineer should not he permitted to re lease water to a Wyoming irrigation distritc until the needs of a Nebraska water user, with an earlier priority,

nave been satisfied.

Wyoming is seeking to “equitable division” by the court of the waters of the river in such a wav that the principle of “beneficial use" best can be realized. If such a division is made, Colorado wants permission to divert water from the North Platte to the South Platte watershed. On the basis of testimony he is receiving, Doherty will report his findings to the Supreme court and that tribunal wil make tne final deciison.

bathtubs.

The tub was designed by Henry Dreyfuss. who also has designed tra ns. airplane interiors and indust-

rial objects.

Dreyfuss used a band and line treatment to give the fixture a mild modernistic effect, but kept utilitarianism in mind to the extent of mak-

ing the tub more roomy.

ZION'CHECK COMMITS SUICIDE SEATTLE, Wash., Aug. 8, (UP) — For 34 days Marion Anthony Zioncheck bore the cold shoulder snubs of former friends and the suggestive grins of enemies while his political career crumbled into nothingness. This was established today as probably the only motive that will ever be known for his suicide. Interrupted last night in the writing of his testament, Zioncheck dived head first out of his office window. He fell five stories, his body turning like a stick, ami landed on his head in front of an automobile in which his bride and companion of a gayer day. Rubye Nix Zioncheck, was sitting. Death was instantaneous.

HYDE PARK, N. Y„ Aug. 8, (UP) President Roosevelt wil’ invite Gov. Alfred M. Landon, Republican presidential nominee, to confer with him somewhere “west of the Mississippi” on the drought crisis. If Landon accepts and he probably will, the United Press learned— it will be the first time the rivals for the presidency have met. Mr. Roosevelt himself made the announcement yesterday in his press conference. He said Governor Landon would he ineluded with the governors of Iowa, Nebraska and Okla-

homa.

The meeting probably will take place some time between Aug. 26 and Sept. 10. when Mr. Roos“velt will go into the “dust bowl” to find out how drought relief is progressing. Before he assembles witn the corn belt governors, Mr. Roosevelt will discuss drought problems with the chief executives of the Dakotas, Wyoming and Montana. While the arrangements of the trip are as yet tentative, it was believed that this eonferenee would be tn North Dakota. where the president plans to spend two or three days. From the Dakotas Mr Roosevelt will move over into Minnesota where he will confer with Gov. Fioyd B. Olson ami the senators from that state. Then he will proceed to Wisconsin for a talk with Gov. Philip LaFollette and the Wiseonsin senators and later to Iowa. Heading back east, the president plans to stop at a place not yet selected where he will meet the governors of Illinois. Indiana. Michigan, Ohio and Kentucky. All of the conferences, it was emphasized at the summer White House will be on the drought and they will have no political significance. Asked about the possibility of speeches, the preisdent said that when it was all over he might feel that the country has a right to have a w< rd picture painted as to just what rhe drought

means.

This was taken to mean that he probably would sum up bis findings in a nation-wide radio address and J { also discuss the objectives of the admnistration’s drought program.

“Spirit” is the subject of the Lesson-Sermon in all Churches of l liri t, Scientist, on Sunday, Au-

gust 9.

The Golden Text is: “Thou art

my God: thy spirit is good; lead me into the land of uprightnos*”

(Psalms 143: 10). * Among the citations which com-

prise tiie Lesson - Sermon is the following from the Bible: “Great is the Lord, and greatly to be praised; and his greatness is unsearchable. I he Lord is nigh unto all them that call upon him, to all that call upon him in truth” (Psalms 145: 3, 18). “And when thou prayest, thou shall not be as the hypocrites are: for they love to pray standing in the synagogues and in the streets, that Ihcy may have glory of men. Verily, 1 say unto you, they have their reward. But thou, when thou prayest, enter into thy closet, and when thou mist, shut thy door, pray to thy rather which is in secret; and thy l ather which secth in secret s’.iatl reward thee openly” (Matthew 6:

“1 6).

The Lesson-Sermon also includes the following passages from the hristian Science textbook, “Science and Health with Key, to the Scriptures” by Mary Baker Eddy: Inc Master’s injunction is, that we pray in secret and let our lives attest our sincerity" (p. 16). “Our Master taught his disciples one brief prayer, which we name after him the I.ord’s Prayer, Our Master said, ‘After this manner therefore pray ye,’ and then he gave that prayer which covers ail human neetfs. . . . Only as we rise above all material sensuousness and sin, can we reach the heaven-born aspiration and spiritual consciousness, which is indicated in the Lord’s Prayer, and which iiiseantuneously heals the _*ick” (p. 16).
