3S" State Balks At Showing Water Data A California attorney today objected to an Arizona request to inspect water delivery records under contracts of Mexican land companies with American water companies in the Imperial Valley. The California lawyer called the request "out of line." Harry W. Horton, Imperial Ir rigation District attorney, argued that Arizona's motion in the Colorado River water suit trial would require six months work for checking thousands of reports dating back to 1900. Mark Wilmer, Arizona coun sel, said Arizona wanted to check gauging stations and rate of flow records under the Mexican company contracts with the California Development predecessor of the Imperial Irri gation District. He said Arizona would willingly accept an Imperial "pver- seer at the elbow" of anyone as signed by the court" to make the record check.
