AS understand 1t. this present

As compared with It's prede 'essor.i,rsi.
ness has been written In large letters
by the leading officers Of the present

Now, It seems to me hardly bust
iiess-likc to turn this dam over to the

do? Suppose they condemn or approve,
Is It still not up to the engineering ex-
perts and the executive officers In
charge of the dam construction?
what do the members OF the
Legislature know about the technical
tiles of earth dam building? They
could employ a committee Of expert :
to go over the work. but our executive
business administration can do that,
without prejudice To either side
the course of affairs thus far does not
appeal to me as remarkably business
