IMPERIAL VALLEY OPPOSES IDEA
Believes Government Ownership Would
Be a Disaster
III AssocIated Press.

IMPERIAL. Cal, Jan. 12.-The mes
sage of the president recommending
that the government acquire rights of
the California Development company
and take the Imperial valley into the
reclamation service meets the approval
of but small portion of the people of
the valley. Various commercial bodies
in the valley have repeatedly passed
resolutions against government control.
Whatever encouragement there may
have been in the early days of the Cali
fornia Development company, the fact
is that more than hundred thousand
acres are actually under cultivation
with ample water supply.
The people of the valley have never
been able to draw from the reclama-
tion service any definite statement of
the terms under which it wishes to
take this valley into its system but it
is believed that the department would
demand annulment of this valleys pri-
ority of water rights: that it would re-
quire reduction of land holdings and
that it would demand that this valley
help pay for the Laguna dam, for which
the people believe they have no need.
small minority here favors gov
eminent control of this irrigation sys-
TEN, but unless existing rights can
be protected there will be strenuous
opposition to the presidents program
and the project will be defeated under
the reclamation service rules requiring
80 per cent of the land to be signed to
make a binding contract.

has shown that each time, through de-
lay, the work has cost double or treble
what Il would have had prompt action
been taken. II Is probable now
that with an expenditure OF $2,000,000
the river can be restored to its former
channel and held there indefinitely, but
IL this action Is not taken Immediately
several times this sum may be re-
qulred to restore II, and possibly It
cannot be restored unless enormous
sums are expended.
The interests of the government In
this matter are so great in the protec-
tlon of its own property, particularly
Of the public lands, that congress Is
justified i'm taking prompt and effec-
tive measures toward the relief of the
present situation No steps, however,
should be taken except with broad
comprehension of the magnitude of the
work and with the belief that within
the next ten years the work and de-
velopment will be carried out to their
full proportions
THE plan in general is to enter upon
a broad comprehensive scheme of de-
velopment for all the irrigabe lands
upon the Colorado river with needed
storage at the headquarters, so that
none of the water of this great river
can be put TO beneficial use will be all
lowed to waste. that Imperial valley
VIII never have safe and adequate
supply Of water until the main canal
extends from the Lnguna dam. AS
each end of this dam is connected with
rock bluffs il provides a permanent
heading bounded on rock for the diver
sion of the waters. Any works built
below this point would not be safe from
destruction by floods and cannot be de-
pended upon for a permanent and re-
liable supply of water to the valley.
IF congress does not give authority
and make adequate provision to take
up this work in the way suggested 1t
must be inferred that it acquicsces in
the abandonment of the rock at Laguna
and of all futhure attempts to utilize
the valuable publicsdomai in this part
of the country"
