CONSIDERATION
 FUR POWER MEN
Reclamation Service Will Answer Request for Co., operation With Power Users League Only if Presented in Writing

That the reclamation service will certainly give consideration to properly presented plan for the for nation of a power consumers league, was the reply that Super visor of Irrigation l. D. ODonnell and Secreary Lanes special repre- sentative gave to a committee of the board of trade yesterday. Repre- senting that the Pacific Gas and Electric company had revised its rates but not downward, and that prices of power were between fifty and a hundred per cent higher now than before the new rates went into effect. the committee, composed part ly of power users sat in close con- ference with the big man of the reclamation service for several hours. c. D. Young acted as spokesman for the committee. He related the conditions, which were confirmed by other members of the delegation, and then at the questioning of Mr O'Donnell presented the plan. It is to consolidate the interests of the two hundred or so power users of Phoenix, to buy a single consignment of juice direct from the reclamation service, entirely apart from the F. G. and E. There would be a demand according to figures presented by the committee for a"out 1,200 horse power for the two hundred users.
 After hearing the case O'DOnnell assured the delegation that the reclamation service could not act eX- cept on a written plan. He assured the visitors that their proposition would be looked into by the proper engineers of the service. Not bein, in the electrical department, and not knowing anything about power, he could not make any definite promises.
 The committee then started in to give examples of the raise in price of power effected by the revised rates.
 MT. O'Donnell went from one hear ing to another yesterday. Starting the day with a conference with en- gineers. he went rapidly from tech nical points of project administration tc details of forty acre farming He ended his present visit to Phoenix with a long session with the survey board, the project manager, the president and secretary of the Water Users Association.
 He left last night with his wife and daughter for Fl Paso. He will see the Elephant Butte project and others in the New Mexico region and then return to Billings, Montana. where the spring time will he calling the sprouting alfalfa from the fields and the farmers out of their cosy bungalows.

 ID FORGET THE
 PHOENIX FOLKS
Reclamation Commissioner Says He Likes It Here Advises Phoenix to Get National Park for RoOse- welt Region

Tt will be a long time before l forget this town" remarked 1. D. O'Donnell, supervisor of irrigation for the reclamation service, as he gathered up a bulky portfolio and prepared to shake the hands of the survey board, the reclamation and Water Users officials, and shake the dust of Phoenix from his shoes.
 Asked why, he replied Your newspapers have been full of my flattering comments on this place. That's your answer'
 Pressed for some final compliments or otherwise. he continued:
 T have been most impressed with the peacefulness of the hearings we have had here on the project limit ing and the numerous other subjects that have been put up to me. l gather that the farmers of the valley of the Salt are an intelligent people, who know what they want and are getting it as rapidly and as easily as they can. There has not been a single harsh word"
 He was reminded of the woman who quizzed him at Mesa as to his willingness to get rid of his 600 acres of Montana farm, and live on the remaining forty.
 Those were not harsh words" he replied. "She did not speak in anger, and I certainly didn't resent it. have not come across anyone but whose relations with lie have been pleasant I like it here because you have such a big good place, and hope you will continue to appreciate it. I am not sure when 1 shall come

again, but I sure want to see you all once more.'
 The supervisors advice to the peo~ ple of this country was along many lines, not especially related to farm ing. One of his suggestions was for national park to include the Roosevelt lake and Roosevelt high way. He intimated that it would be easy to secure this park. What he didn't touch on, but what was later enlarged upon by Secretary c. A. Van der Veer of the Water Users association, was that by securing the withdrawal of the road region, the people would forever settle the ques- ton of the maintenance of the high way, and would secure a link in T transcontinental road at no expense to the local taxpayers.

TRIBUTE TO WESTINGHOUSE

George Westinghouse was one of
the towering figures of the period of
marvellous industrial development
{ spanned by his years of activity. He
will be remembered longest as inven-
tor of the air brake that bears his
name. The invention, however. was
only an incident in long and crowded
constructive career. His inventive gen.
ius, says the Sioux City Journal, was
not limited to the railway field, but
ranged freely through a wide range of
engineering advancement Unlike
most inventive geniuses, Mr.. Westing-
house had the executive ability inner
ent in the makeup of the great bust
ness man. He had the solidity and
strength of character typical OF great
