HURRY WORD
GOES OUT ON
THE PROJECT
Lateral System to Be Com
pleted Under Full Pres
sure With Fund Spe-
cially Apportioned by the
Reclamation Commission

Determined to complete the Salt
river project by December /, on
which date it will most likely be
officially opened, the reclamation
commission has concluded to rush
the remainder Of the construction
work with the greatest speed, so
that by July l, the emf Of one fiscal
year and the start of another, all the
old laterals must be replaced with
new ones.
For years and years, the replace
ment of old inefficient and in some
cases superfluous laterals, by new
ones, dug to proper grades for the
best serving of all lands, has been
matter of difference between hold :
ers of old lands and the reclama
ton service. In fact, it was felt by
many that it were better to re-
linquish reservoir rights than to wait
until the slow processes of reor-
ganization came around to revise
the secondary delivery system
After July l, all expenditures in
the reclamation service will be by
congressional appropriation. And that
is one reason why the fund of ap-
proximately $4,000 for rebuilding the
lateral system must all be expended
by the end of the fiscal year. This
fund will be the last which the rec
lamation commission will have to
disburSe on the Salt river proiect-it

GERMANY WANTS
UNRESTRICTED
FOOD SHIPMENT
Won Bernstorff Explains the
Position of His Govern
ment i'll Establishing War
Zone as Retaliation for
Hindering Supply Ships
ASSOCIATED PRESS pIsPArcH1

WASHINGTON, Feb. 13-The i'm
portance which the German govern
ment attaches to the unrestricted
shipment of foodstuffs for it's civilian
population was emphasized at the
state department by Count Won Bern
storff the German ambassador who
conferred with both Secretary Bryan
and Counsellor Lansing, and while
no formal statement regarding the
ambassadors call was issued, it was
said afterward that he limited that
warfare on merchant shipping might
be relaxed if Germany is assured of
a continuous food supply for her nom
combatant population.
The position of the German govern
ment, he explained is that the proc
lamation of war zone and a cam
paign against enemy merchant ships
was simply a retaliation against Eng
lands alleged violations of the decla-
ration of London in hindering condi-
from reaching Germany This ac-
cording to the German ambassador
was no less inhumane than her con-
dition on the merchant vessels.
The ambassador discussed to some
extent the case of the Wilhelmina, the
American steamer seized by Great
Britain on it's journey to Germany
with foodstuffs. He believes the
American government should take in
terest in the safe delivery of the
