SIGNS WILL GUIDE
FRENCH AVIATORS

Paris.-The French National Avia-
ton league has decided that certain
signs be put on land so that aviators
may know which way they are trav-
cling. During the eastern circuit
Manot, Legagneux and Leblanc had
to alight on the earth to see where
they were travelling and others lost
prizes Simply because they went in
the wrong direction, unconsciously.
1t is proposed to place immense
numbers on the ground at all points
in the country, in the city, in villages.
Places marking a point will be desig-
mated by two numbers, one indicat-
ing the distance north or south on
parallel with Paris, the other num-
ber indicating the distance west OF
east of the Partisan meridian.
II an aviator loses his bearings he
will see the numbers 1858. This
will tell him that he Is 16S kilometers
north Of the parallel of Paris and SO
kilometers east of its meridian. Now
how can he know that he is south in
stead of north. The numbers will be
underlined For instance, II the first
number is underlined he will know
that he is south and II the last figure
Is underlined It will tell him that he
is east Of the meridian.

CENTRAL COLD STORAGE
First Story Walls are Laid for I'm = n1ense Plant to be Installed

The first story walls are completed for the cold storage plant being erect ed in Fl Centro by w. F. Holt and associates. The building will be three stories in height, and will be one the most conspicuous structures of this city. Tt is 100x150 feet, with brick walls The lumber for this structure was the largest order for one building ever sent out of Imperial Valley. J. l.. Travers is in charge of this work and is also in charge of the construction of smaller cold stor- age plants at Brawley, and Holtville, both of which are nearly completed. One is to be started next week at Imperial, and immediately after it's completion work will begin On one at Calexico. All of these smaller plants are to be feeders" for the central cold storage at Fl Centro, where per ishable products, both of the valley and those brought in for distribution. will be handled on wholesale scale.

The new structure also will eliminate one of the checks and will be a distinct betterment of the system. The Rose dam in the Alamo also is being com pleted according to original plans, and in a short time will serve the Mes quite Lake district and lift the em- bargo on the Holton power canal
 Col. Holabird agrees with the Press that the settlers of Imperial Valley should take up the question of final disposition of the c. D. system and work out plan of organization, per haps in the form of an irrigation dis trict, by which they may, if they deem 1t advisable, obtain control of the system and operate it for their own benefit. They cannot begin too soon to investigate the matter in all its aspects and collect data on the cost and value of the system, in order that they may be prepared to act intelligently when the opportunity to settle the question is presented.

SETTING ARCADE PILLARS

Work was started this week on ex- cavations in the cement walks for placing the columns which are to sup port the arcades along the Holt build nigs The first section to be thus improved will be the Holton Power Company's offices and the Valley Hard ware Store building. As soon as the block at the southwest corner of Sixth and Main streets is furnished with. these arcades, work will be started on the entire south side of Main street, between Fifth and Sixth streets. The Chaffee Art Metal Works is turning out the pillars at a rapid rate, and the entire series of arcades will be completed by the first of June

WATER FROM sHARP's HEADING

Chief Engineer Hermann of the Cal ifornia Development Company has a plan for furnishing domestic water to the valley cities, in case the artesian wells now being driven. do not prove entirely satisfactory, says the Brawley News. The scheme is to run a big pipe line from Sharp's heading to each of the valley cities, distributing the water into reservoirs as needed. There is sufficient grade to make this plan feasible. It will avoid the contaminat- ing influences which will in time prove objectionable if the present system of open ditches is maintained for do- mestic water. The water being pur- chased direct from the Mexican com pany from the c. D. Co.,, it will not be necessary to buy water stock

IMPROVEMENT WORK .. ON CANAL SYSTEM Receiver HoIabird's Program of Construction Modified
 By Litigation.
No Sale of Property Until Obstructive A&fases Are Disposed of by Courts Xconcrete Structure Replacing Old
 Ten-Foot Drop in Number Ones
 Main Canal.

Col. w. A. Holabird, receiver of the California Development Company, was in the valley this week inspecting the improvement work in progress on the canal system under authorization of the Superior Court.
 Speaking of the possible disposi- tion of the company's system by re- ceiver's sale, Col. Holabird said he had learned, since he first suggested the plan, that no sale can be order ed until the litigation in which the company is involved shall be conclud- ed, and as appeals to the Supreme Court probably will be made by the intervenors, who recently tried to ob- struct all work for protection of the sVafem and assurance of water sup AI to the valley, 1t may be two or thkse years before the court can or der a sale.
 Col. Holabird hoped to be able to put the canal system in first class condition and to replace temporary structures with permanent concrete works during his term, but the inter ference of litigants who are interest ed only in bedeviling the valley until somebody shall pay them their price for bonds and others claims to get rid of their obstructive operations, has postponed if not wholly prevented such work, and all that the receiver can do is to maintain and operate the system about as 1t stands.

Transportation of Road Mate- rial the Determining Fac
 tor in Problem.
Commission Desires Aid of General Advisory Committee in Campaign For Good Roads in Imperial County -Women's Clubs Invited to Co op- crate With Board.

The Imperial County Highway Com mission has not presented it's final report to the Board of Supervisors be- cause an estimate of the cost of build ing an adequate system of good roads cannot be made until the matter of transportation of material is deter mined.
 The commissions engineers have found first class road material near the old beach line on the west side of the valley, and if the material can be transported by rail and distributed along the routes of the proposed main highways, the building of proposed roads will be feasible from a finan- cial stand point of view If the ma terial must be hauled in wagons, the cost will be prohibitlve at present.
 It is hoped that the Southern Pa ciic, which is behind the San Diego & Arizona project, will consent to the Immediate extension to the mountains of the road now being graded from El Centro to New River, thus giving access to the road material desired by the commission. The transportation of that material would be paying business for the railroad from the start and in itself would justify the immediate extension to the deposit The question is being considered by the Southern Pacific and decision is expected within few days.
 In the meantime the Highway Com mission is asking for assistance and advice from the people of the valley and urging the selection of an ad- visory committee of twenty-five to

A comprehensive system of rail- ways connecting all the cities of Im- perial Valley and traversing the trib- utary farming districts Is required for the complete development of the re- sources of the region, and 1t is pro- vided for in the plans of the Im- perial Valley Railway Company, which has been incorporated with capi- tai of $2,0OO,0OO by w. F. Holt and his associates to build more than one hundred miles of railroad covering the entire valley with feeders to the main lines. MT. Holt is president of the company, which is sufficient guar antee that the enterprise is organized on a business basis and that the lines will be built speedily.
 It is the purpose of the company to get the work we'll started this year and push it to completion as fast as possible, and the consummation of the project Is not contingent upon the contribution of any bonus by the set tiers of the regions to be developed by the roads. No Holt enterprise in the valley has been financed on the Wildcat system.

from Imperial Valley ever introduced anywhere?
 MT. Churchill understand not.
 MT. Parsons. Where is that to be found?
 MT. Churchill. On page 12 of the record before the Senate committee. The title of the bill is, and its principal purpose was, to protect in- nocent purchasers. With that, as I said, we are in full sympathy; but, as MT .Lawler points out, some, at least of these have relinquished and relied on their lands, and our infor- nation is that all but about ten Of the original assignees of fraudulent entryment have thus relinquished, so that there would be only ten, even of these innocent purchasers, to be protected. But our principal objec- tion to the passage of the bill is this: On March of this year the Commits sioner of the General Land Office handed down his decision in the case of Skinner vs. Davis, of which I have copy here, which wish to file with the committee. This decision makes this legislation absolutely unnecessary, so far as it's ostensible purpose is concerned. He holds absolutely all that these innocent purchasers could wish for, so it is quite unnecessary to pass this legislation, and to thereby confuse these titles in the Imperial Valley.

Mo- z, and divides No 5 with Braw- ley and the southeastern part of No. l with Calexico. Each of the five cities becomes the center of a radiaI system of feeder railways, and every rancher in the valley may reach railroad in a short haul.
 This is by far the most important enterprise that has yet been started for the benefit of the whole valley since the irrigation system was estab- lished. It means the full development of every part of the valley that is under the canal system. Long wagon haul from farm to railroad retards farm development, keeps down the value of some of the most fertile land in the valley and is the chief obsta- cle to close settlement. Transpor- tation is the farmers first problem, and it can be solved only by public roads of the first class and by access sible railroads. The cost of com plete system of hard, smooth country roads ill new country is practically prohibitive, especially in the absence of good material close at hand. The feeder railway, as planned by MT. Holt solves the problem for this region.
 Obviously well planned, compre- hensive system, operated as a whole for the benefit of the entire valley, is preferable to a series of haphazard local lines running to nowhere in particular and operated without ref erence to one another. The Hunting ton system in Los Angeles illustrates the point.
