For onrcongressmen arestrongly in favor of this policy, to a man. In his recent address before the California Miners Association at San Francisco, Congressman Kahn said:
 "A question in which you are all in- terested, 8 question that is of the most vital importance 10 every one in Cali fornia and one that is receiving at the present time the attention it deserves is the conservation of the flood waters of the State.
