TO WIPE OUT ONE ROOSEVELT.
Not Teddy. but n Town at the Bottom OF
Proposed Resery OR.

The Roosevelt dam IS located in ella
county, AriZ., about siNty-ive miles north
east Of the city OF Phoenix. at a point where
a natural site for a dam is afforded by the
canon formation.
Owing to the character Of the country
IL was necessary to construct a series OF
highways, in order to haul machinery
and other supplies to the site Of the dam
from the nearest railway point. Road
building operations have covered nearly
100 miles alone, some of the highways being
cut through bluffs ranging from nifty TO
seventy-fve feet in height.
The immense amount OF rock cutting,
the quantity OF cement needed, also the
elaborate concrete work, rendered neces-
sary the construction Of a cement mill,
several concrete mixing plants at various
points. az we'll as smaller industries, which
have created o village in the vicinity OF the
dam site. This community is called Roose-
welt.
An odd feature OF Roosevelt, says the
Cement Age, is that it is situated on the
bottom OF the proposed reservoir ana VIII
pass out OF existence as soon as the dam
Is completed. Owing to the dif1culty IN
securing fuel and the expense OF installing
steam owe the engineers decided to-
utilize hydraulic and electric power, and
a portion OF the preliminary work has been
the construction OF a power canal, which
lis nearly twenty miles in length. IL will
generate sufficient current TO operate all
~ the mechanism and that needed for
Illuminating the cement mill and other
plants. and il necessary will furnish light
for night work upon the dam itself.
Who're the dam is being built the gorge
II about 2OO feet wide at the base, expand
ing to 400 feet in width at the top Of the
cliffs. By the construction OF a barrier
Of the dimensions proposed a reservoir
will be formed, about eighteen miles IN
While this area is less than that OF some
OF the storage reservoirs already COM
pleted in this country IL will contain suft-
cient water TO food 1. 800 900 acres to an
average depth Of one foot-and quite enough
TO wipe out Roosevelt.
