PRAISE FOR MANUFACTURERS
A Associated Press

Associated Press.
New Haven, Conn, Jan. 24.-An
affirmative view of business was the
keynote of the speech of Secretary
Redfield today before the chamber
OF commerce. He praised the manu-
facturers for their ready readjust-
ment to the new conditions and de-
clared that the wave of foreign man
.ufaeturers, which. it was predicted,
would flood the American markets
with the passage of the new tariff.
had not materialized.
He spoke on the new me thods
adopted by the department to bring
business men in closer touch with
both domestic and foreign trade OPP
portunities.
Mr.. Redfield said in part: But
you say, look at the depression. Well,
look at it sanely. What do you see? ?
But before you answer let me ask
where are you looking? Get the
horizon big enough, else your picture
may mislead. Where is trade depres-
sion found? In India, Argentine,
Brazil, Germany and England. Where
is ii least? In America. Where is
the rising tide from such depressions
felt first? Here in America? She
is better off when the worst is said
than our sister nations"

Three District Boards Meet To-

Joining the High Line.

The East Palisade irrigation dis
triet Will join with the Palisade
and Mesa County irrigation districts
In plan to be submitted to the gov
ernment for securing a supply OF wa
ter from the High Line canal.
a meeting of the directors of the
three districts was held this after
noon in the offices of their Joint at
torney, S. NJ. Logan. and plans for
mulated for submission to the gov
ernment of a proposition to take in
all OF these districts.
The East Palisade district COM
prises but 500 acres on the south
side of the Grand river in Vineland
1t will be necessary to cross the river
with big flume if the government
project waters this acreage.
Members of all three districts ia
vored the proposal to come under the
Grand Valley project, provided that
an equitable arrangement could be
made with the government to in
clude three propositions.
1. That the government recog-
nize the priorities of the districts.
.. That the cost of the service
from the government should not be
greater than at present.
3. That questions of dispute be
left TO the state engineer or some
other state official.
The three boards spent two hours
this afternoon discussing with their
attorneys. Logan & Potter. the pro-
posal which is to be submitted to
the reclamation service, and Judge
Logan was instructed to make
draft of the offer which the districts
are willing to submit to the land
owners of the upper end of the val
ley They all agreed, however, that
IL would be useless to submit any
proposition which would be more
expensive than the present water
service.
The directors present at the meet
ing contended that the advantage
would not be altogether on their
side. but that the government would
profit. in securing 10000 acres of
land upon which the tax for maintain
ance would be Immediately ayaila-
BILE, while from the great bulk of
lands there must be a wait until the
farmers had u chance to cultivate
them. 1t was also claimed that the
government by making deal with
the district would secure about 700
additional horsepower for their plant
above Palisade. which could be sold
or used to advantage.
It will probably be several days
before the draft of the proposal is
completed for submission to the gov
ernment.
