These lands embrace the best of @he lands in the WalIapai valley and should be eagerly sought after by pros JectiVo agriculturists.
 While little water has so far been ound in the valley, it. is more than ,robable that by concerted action res ervoirs Of sufficient capacity could Oe built in the canyon that would make possible the irrigation of vast tracts of this land.

Boosters to Urge That All Money Raised in Los Angeles Be Expended at Once to Put
 Road to Yuma in Condition

say they will endeavor to make it particularly good on this section From Mecca southward around the Salton sea the work has been carried on by the Los Angeles auxiliary under Construction Engineer Charles Bige- low, and the members of the party say that it is a good road.
 Long Stretch in Good Shape
 The stretch from Fig Tree Johns to the crossing of the west side main west of Brawley is declared to be possible. On this section, broken volcanic rock, which looks like slate, has been used effectively over sev- eral bad patches of sand and blue clay that is found abundantly in the vicin- ity was used as surface material.
 From the west side main, through Westmoreland to Brawley there are about five miles of load road, which could be very cheaply made good, as 1t is all under the irrigation system of the Imperial Valley and has been Irrigated once. It is now sandy and rutty, but the supervisors and Brawley people promise to change this condi- ton at once. East from Brawley there is practically a boulevard, on through the irrigated section; then comes the beach line and the Nam moth Wash. Beyond this bad stretch the autoists found good, hard foun- dation needing only leveling and the elimination of some bad washes and coulees to make it a very fair country road After leaving Ogilby the road strikes north into the hills and is on hard foundation all the way around the horseshoe bend to Yuma
 Chief Engineer c. K Clarke, who has been delayed again and again in ,tarting home, was reported yesterday o have left Washington for this city, coming by the southern route and planning a stopover of two days in New Orleans. In the meantime it is probable that the advice of the con- 5ulting engineers will be taken at the Thursday meeting and this seems to indicate the commencement of actual work on the Mammoth Wash imme diately.

Former President Mitchell, Secretary J. J. Jenkins of the Los Angeles-Col- ton-Yuma auxiliary, Louis Schwabe and Engineers Lippincott, Charles Bigelow and Joyner from Los Angeles, President George w. Wilder and Sec retary Mont P. Chubb of the national dent Karl Carlton and J. H. Crane of the Riverside board of supervisors, made the trip, taking six cars and get ting through in good shape. They made Palm Springs Friday night, Brawley Saturday night and Yuma on Sunday night, and had no difficulty at any stage.
 Mammoth Wash Bad Stretch
 According to MT. Mitchell they all agreed that the most important work for Southern California to do is on the Mammoth Wash, which is a bad stretch of sand immediately east of the old beach line, out of Brawley, and extends to and under the South ern Pacific railroad crossing near Mammoth station The engineers did not say what the work will cost, but it was unofficially reported that $6,000 mile is their estimate. This will cover the laying of a branch or tule foundation and surfacing with clay or gravel. It will make the road en tirely practicable for any motorist with any kind of car, it is asserted.
 Another task that will be imme- diately taken up is that of posting signs on the road from end to end so that the veriest novice can follow the line On the desert, particularly, there are so many branching roads that, unless signs are erected, it would be easy to take the wrong roaI
 The members of the party report that, after leaving Banning, they found a good road to Mecca, with the exception of few places between Palm Springs and Indio, where the traffic is heavy and the road is cut up. A movement is now on foot along this line to make improvements and the Riverside county supervisors, who were in the party of pathfinders,

LOS ANGELES, Dec. 10.-Southerr California will have done it's share toward providing a travelable road through it's territory on the route of the National Ocean-to-Ocean High way within sixty days, if the plans now maturing are carried out. The officials and engineers of the Los All geles-C Cotton Yuma auxiliary, returned to the city yesterday morning and on Thursday will make their report to the auxiliary at special meeting in the chamber of commerce direc- tors office. If this report is adopted it will mean the immediate beginning of work on the Mammoth Wash, the worst selection of the highway and the only one, according to the en- gineers. that is not now practicable for general travel
 While nothing is definite until after the Thursday meeting, these matters seem practically settled as the result of the trip over the line made Friday, Saturday and Sunday last:
 That the road will certainly go to Brawley and thence northeast through tho Mammoth Wash.
 $6,ooo a Mile Estimate
 That as much of the $100,000 fund Los Angeles is seeking to raise for this highway as is available will be used on the Mammoth Wash road until it is in good condition. This stretch is only three miles long, and it is believed $6,000 mile will make it entirely feasible
 That the money remaining after the Mammoth Wash work is done will be spent between Brawley and Yuma, as the other sections of the road are either already in good condition or will be taken care of by some other agency than the auxiliary.
 That no money will go toward inn proving the Holtville-Sand Hills-Yu- ma road, as it is believed the other route eastward from the valley is the better one.
 These facts were gleaned yesterday from interviews with the officials and engineers who went over the road.

This shipment is, in addition to the 150 automobiles that the Buick fac tory ships to the coast every week.
 Upon the arrival of the train, the Howard automobile company will take out a policy of insurance on these machines approximating 70 per cent. of their value, and immediately 375 new license numbers will have to be issued for them, for practically all of these machines have already been sold. The freight on this ship ment will approximate $32,000.

 Officers believe the bandits had a confederate near the scene, who made away with the heavy bags of gold. Large rewards are being offered for thei. capture.
