CHANGE FOR LIVE
RESORT BUILDER
Reclamation Service Will
Lease Elephant Butte
Town on Lake Hall.

The conversion of the government
town Of Elephant Butte into a pleasure
resort-tall1ed OF many times by Ell
Paso business men in the past few
years-awaits merely little material
aida live man or organization who
will take over the little town and ali
that is ina it in order to make the
dream Of many FL Pasoans a reality.
The United States reclamation ser
vice is announcing that sealed pro-
posals viii be received at its office at
elephant Butte, n. NJ, until June ],
next Tor the lease of the quarterhOuse,
mess nail and eleven modern cottages
which were used there by the officers
ana employees in the erection of the
immense dam across the Rio Grande.
1t is probable that the FL Paso cham
ger OF commerce in view of its activl-
tles IN promoting the construction o.
the dam and the advertising and pub
licity II has given it, will lend the
future lessee Of the quarters moral
support in the event the lessee turns
Elephant Butte into q resort.
Elephant Butte dam was begun five
years ago, and the reclamation service
was forced to build a town to lodge
its many hundred WOrkmen. Now that
the dam is completed, a ready made
town which possesses all the require
menus u d pltdSuIe pace ueSllutQ 10
become famous over the United States,
is to be deserted. Lake b. NJ Hall is
rapidly becoming the largest artificial
body of water in the world The op-
pOrtunities for a summer and winter
resort there would appear to be very
attractive.
The dam and lake are 116 miles from
FL PasO and 40 miles from AlbuQuer-
que. Access is easy to the lake from
Engle and Cutter stations on the Santa
Fe railroad and by automobile roads
from FL Paso and other southwestern
cities The PalOmas hot springs are
located four miles from Elephant Butte
adding bathing in curative wateSC to
the list of possible diversions on the
lake.
The reclamation service viii lease
the buildings for five years, and the
lessee may take possession on July l
of this year.

GOVERNOR FOR
PREP AREDNESS
Talks to Newspapermen at
Pinehurst on the National
Army and Navy Policy

Governor BrumDaugh declares very
strongly in favor of preparedness at
Pinehurst last night A dispatch from
the North Carolina resort to the
Philadelphia Press says he expressed
himself "as strongly in favor of an
open policy of preparing the country
for war by developing its resources
and its transportation facilities to the
greatest extent, and with the greatest
speed possible.
1T is not the army and the navy
which decide by themselves the ulti-
mate outcome of modern war" said
the Governor. NOR is it necessarily
the extent of the resources and the
transportation facilities of the coun-
its resources and it's railroads have
been made ready beforehand for i'm
mediate service under war condi-
tions.'
Governor Brumbaugh declined to
commit himself on the question of
Government control of railways in
times of peace and. also declined 10
concede that he considered the United
States faces any immediate danger of
war. He simply thinks it is high time
that the country begins to get ready
to meet possible aggression.
The Governor intimated that the
subject called for more profound and
deliberate study and consideration
than reasonably could be expected
from any man on wedding trip, and
Mrs. Brumbaugh agreed with him.
