AT OF LONG ago The Herald published in condensed
form the report of Prof. T. U. Taylor and
Scott Etter, as majority members of the @cOst
review board" Of the reclamation service for this dis
trct, upon the Carlsbad On. NJ project The report
very extraordinary that it obviously called for
special comment but other matters have interviewed to
delay consideration So far as The Herald knows, the
people living under the Carlsbad project have not
sented the report or denied its accuracy But those
who know some Of the underlying facts and circum
stances leading up to the revival of the Carlsbad
district under government auspices will be able to
appreciate the attitude of mind Of Of the promi
nent figures over there.
The report of Prof. Taylor and his colleague was

project manager on the Carlsbad project who was mis-
quoted In the final report in order to make
favorable showing for the Carlsbad project and for the
reclamation service.
The report Of Prof Taylor and his colleague closed
with these words "GOd pity the water users on the

ACKNOWLEDGEMENTS With q
Large Army Sent to Take sultan's
Capital From the Land Side.

London, Feb. 27.-The forts at the
entrance of the Dardanelles have been
reduced after an all-day bombardment
by the Franco-British feet, according
to an announcement made on Thurs.
day by the admiralty.
The announcement states:
The weather moderating, the bonn
bardment of the olRer forts of the OAR
danelles was renewed on Thursday
morning. After period Of long range
firing, close range firing was adopted.
"All the forts at the entrance to the
straits we're successfully reduced
The operations are continu-
ing"
This means that the bombardment
and possible capture Of Constantinople
by the allied feet, which has been
reported to include 40 warships, is
imminent, and that the feet is at pres
ent smashing its way through the
straits.
The Dardanelles forts, for years con-
sidered among the strongest military
barriers in the world, have been sub
iected to almost incessant battering
by the shells of the battleships' guns
since last Friday, when the supreme
effort to force the straits was COM
menced. Before that there had been
several attacks on the Notifications.
The bombardment was continued all
day Saturday and Sunday, and more
than two thousand shells were dropped
on the forts in that time. Bad wealth
er for the time compelled the cessation
Of the efforts of the fleet to reduce
the forts, but the bombardment was
resumed Monday afternoon, again to
be ended by bad weather until Thurs
day.
Constantinople reported that the
Commandment had been almost without
effect, but the official announcement
of the British admiralty said that the
forts were unable to reply because
the ships were out of range, and that
five of them were reduced by Saturday
night.
The attack on Constantinople will
be simultaneous, it is believed here,
with an effort on the part of the Rus
sian army to take the Turkish capital
from the land side. 1t was announced
last week that Russian transports had
been sent with a large army to the
Turkish port of Midi, so miles moth.

GREAT BRITAIN
PLANS BLOCKADE
OF AN UNPRECEDENTED CHAR.
AcTER-lNTENTIoN TO STOP
ALL SHIPPING.
United States Government Had Not
Been Officially Advised at
This Time.

Western Newspaper Union News Service
hington.-Inasmuch as the Uni
ted States government had not been
advised, either through Ambassador
Page or the British embassy here of
the reported notification to neutrals
of Great Britain's intention to hold
up all shipping to and from Germany
and Austria, officials we're unable to
express any opinion upon this latest
development. From the brief press
report of Great Britains plan, it was
thought in official quarters that a
blockade of unprecedented character
was in prospect, likely to involve
many complicated questions Of law.
1t was pointed out that no question
has been the subject of more contro-
versy in international law than that
of blockade, and officials said that the
text of England's declaration was re-
ceived and carefully examined it
would not be possible to discuss its
scope or say whether or not the Uni
ted States would recognize it as bind
ing on it's vessels.
