HARNESS RIVER
MURRAY 70 MAKE
fine WATERWAY
ASSOCIATED Pressl

ADELAIDE, South Australia.-What
is hailed as inaugurating new and
important era In the industrial de-
velopment Of the Australian common
wealth was the laying at Blanchetown
on the river Murray, June 8, OF the
foundation stone of the first lock OF a
great system of locks and weirs, which
win harness this great waterway to
the better use of the Australian peo-
pie The system, together with the
water storages at Lake Victoria and
Cumbero0na. will provide for irriear
tion on a huge scale as well as the
use of the Murray waterway for trade
and commerce.
/. What the Nile is to Egypt, and the
mississippi Is to the United States
the Murray Is to Australia. The Muir
ray river system il one Of the longest
navigable rivers in the world. at times
for more than 5000 miles.
For something like half q century
the control of its waters has been q
vexed question IN the politics OF the
three states most vitality concerned
New South Wales, Victoria and South
Australia because successive gov
ernments have been unable TO agree
upon basis of settlement OF riparian
rights, the potential wealth Of the
river has been allowed to pour itself
unchecked into the sea-a gigantic
waste in a continent where the chief
desideratum is water. The ceremonies
at Blanchetown therefore signalized
a historic event. When carried to
completion, the project viii open up
about 100000 acres for cultivation
and 1t is estimated win bring III an
additional population Of from 100000
to 10000 persons.
The cost will be about $21, 900, 900.
Some idea of the extent of the scheme
may be gathered from the fact that in
South Australia, the Lake Victoria res
ervoirs can be made to store 10000
100000 cubic feet Of water.
