last week in New York on the

GREEN RIVER TO

Eastern Capitalists Have the Coin

A project backed by prominent
eastern capitalists is under way to
open up n large area of valuable
mineral and farming land in eastern
Utah by making the Green river nav
igable for light craft for a distance
Of $50 miles from Fort Duchesne to

channel of the river recently declare
that the project is entirely feasible
The final report is expected to be de-

resentative d the promoters.
The purpose of those behind the
project is to establish transportation
connection between eastern Utah and
the Denver q Rio Grande railroad. If
the eXpeE uent proves successful gov
eminent aid will be sought in broad
ening the scope of the plan. The
eastern capitalists stand ready. it
is understood, to put S250,000 in the
enterprise.
The extreme eastern part of Utah
at present is without rail communi-
cation. The settlers under these con-
ditions are obliged to haul their crops
a considerable distance to market.
The territory is also rich in gilsonite
deposits and transportation by the
Green river will enable the placing
of this mineral on the market in
large quantities at reasonable rate.
The Green river connects with the
Denver & Rio Grande at Green River.
Utah. 1t is navigable in spots now,
but the channel for most of the way
from Fort Duchesne will have to be
dredged and deepened. Active work
on the undertaking will start in the
spring.
