After several conferences between
reclamation officials, irrigation direc-
tors and others vitally interested in
the Imperial Valley project, it was
announced today by DR.. Elwood
Meade Of the University Of Califor-
ria, that an investigation would be
made of the valley water problems
and report made about December l..
No new surveys will be made, but
the data now on hand will be used to
arrive at conclusions.
DR.. Meade stated this morning that
the reclamation service officials
would incorporate in the report
proposition whereby the government
would and could take over the sys~
TEN. 1t is explained that it will be a
business proposition and will be up to
the irrigation directors to accept or
reject.
After an inspection of the various
features of the irrigation system yes
terday, tie officials returned to FL
Centre, the party including A. P. Da-
Wis, director and chief engineer OF
the Reclamation Service, F. E. Wey-
n,outh, chief of construction and viii
f. King, chief counsel; also chief en-
gineer C. R. lockwood of the Imper-
ial Irrigation District, Walter f..
Packard of the experimental farm
end chairman of the Farm Bureau
C mmittee.
The entire party met last evening
and discussed various phases of the
water problems in Imperial Valley.
After the session was over the Re-
clamation officials, together with ir-
rigation directors Holt, Nickerson and
McPherrin consulted until nearly mid
night last night. This morning DR..
Meade gave out the Satement that an
investigation would be made.
"From what l have learned" Dr..
Mead explained, "the people OF the
valley desire protection from Color
ado floods, this being considered the
Initial proposition with them. In fur
ther analyzing the problem it appears
that the protective measure is basel
on financial proposition. The fur
nishing OF water and preventing wa
ter shortages is apparently not the
first thought of the water users here,
but will all enter into the conclusion
of the committees report, which, l
think, will be ready for submission
en- or abou+ December l."
DR.. Meade frequently referred to
the Laguna Dam as being necessary
to enable Imperial Valley to solve
its water problem, indicating that a
canal could be run south along the
Colorado river to a point just north
of the present heading and then re-
