ter from the Laguna dam, as there
were no engineering difficulties. Stor-
age basins might be maintained IN the
seventeen-mile stretch between Laguna
and Hanlon's.
Dam Must BE Enlarged.
| Mr.. Davis stated that in the event
that Imperial Valley wanted to take
any great amount of water from the
river at the dam, the structure would
have to be enlarged and extended to
the north to get rock foundation.
No data had been assembled on the
matter yet.
The East Side Mesa irrigation pro-
iect should be considered in any plan
for a connection with the dam.
He said the sluicing facilities were
now adequate for the country being
served. but would not be should 1mpe-
rial participate.
Have No Right to Water.
In answer to a question, Mr.. Davis
said he believed that Imperial Valley
had no legal rights to the water which
is being diverted. He FASTENED to say.
however, that the broad principle OF
the best use Of water was about as
secure as a legal right to the water.
He said there was no intention on
the part of the Reclamation Service or
any other person or interest to ques-
ton the right of the Valley to water.
The discussion and decision of water
rights was left to the courts.
For two years the Reclamation Serv-
ice has been making surveys on the
Green and Grand rivers for reservoir
sites. These were not yet complete.
The diversion of small amounts OF
water in the upper reaches of the trib-
utaries of the Colorado were not great
enough to talk about, he said.

He stated that canal was already
'extended down twelve miles from tho
dam andthat but five miles remained
to be built. The present canal, how
ever, must be greatly enlarged.
He said that although the Secretary
OF the Interior would agree to the
diversion of water for the District,
both in Mexico and in this country,
no contract would be entered into with
the District to supply water in Mex
no. The matter Of furnishing Mexi-

logically. This question was per-

FOOD CONTROL IMPORTANT
To Success in War, Hoover Informs
the Senators-AIso Outlines Ad-
mInistration's Plans.

Washington.-While both branches
of congress continued desultory de-
bate on the governments food control
bill, Herbert c. Hoover, Food admin
istrator, spent four hours at the Capt.
toll emphasizing to score of senator's
gathered informally to hear him, the
vital importance of the legislation to
success in the war. Under sharp and
argumentative questioning by a group
headed by Senators Gore, Reed and
Vardeman, opposing the legislation,
Hoover outlined his plans for conserv.
ing the nations food supply, increas.
ing production and cutting off the ex-
cessive profits of spectators. He did
not conclude and will return to the
Capitol for further examination in an
effort to clear UP congressional and
public misconceptions and hasten &C
ton.
Asserting that the allies food sup
ply will be 40 per cent deficient even
with Americas food surplus assisting,
Hoover said the deficiency must be
made up by sacrifice abroad and econ
omy here.

Ohio Senators For Bill.

Washington.-A food control bill
giving the Government power to fix
minimum prices and to control the
machinery of marketing and distribu-
ton in such manner as practically to
fix minimum prices will have the sup
port of both Ohio Senators. This is
the purpose of the pending bill, and
its principle both Of them are ready
10 support, although they may ap-
prove a forcible modification Of the
bill. Senator Harding's view is that
the passage of the bill probably will
be delayed beyond July 1.

6,OO1 Indians were enrolled for war
service by state officials or on reser-
vations by Interior Department agents.
Counting the 100000 or more men in
the federal service and not required
to register, the Provost Marshal Cen
erals Office says the Census Bureau
estimate Of 10,275,604 eligibles was
approximately correct, and that few
slackers are to be sought With reg
istrations complete; it is expected the
regulations governing the draft prob
ably will be made public within few
days. Kentucky's report showed a
total of 1858, of which 165,351 are
whites and 22,222 negroes. The esti'
mated eligibles were 204,99S.

TOWN PRACTICALLY RUINED
Fire Follows Wreck In Center OF Viii
Iage-Less is Estimated at
100000.

Linden, Ind.-The little town of
Kirkpatrick. just east of here, prac-
tically was wiped out by fire, caused
when train on the Glover Leaf Rail-
road, containing seven cars loaded
with oil, was wrecked in the center OF
the village and exploded. Chemical
fire-fghting apparatus from nearby
towns assisted in eXtinguishing the
flames. The loss was estimated ap-
proximately at 100000, about one
half of which was on property owned
by the railroad. The railroad COM
pany sent a special train, loaded with
1aborers, to Kirkpatrick and material
to repair the damage to it's property.
The explosion was heard for miles,
and the dense black cloud of smoke,
which was seen in Lafayette and
Charlottesville, attracted many motor
lists to the village. At one time the
oil was burning for more than quar-
ter of mile along the track, which
ran through the center of the village.
Kirkpatrick has a population Of abo1!
400.

RUSSIA TO STAND BY ALLIES
Offensive BY Russian Troops Urged
In Resolution Adopted BY
the Duma.

Petrograd-The Duma, in secret
session, has adopted a resolution for
an immediate offensive by the Rus
sian troops. The resolution declares
separate peace with Germany or pro-
longed inactivity on the battle front to
be ignoble treason toward Russia's
allies, for which future generations
never would pardon the Russia of the
present day.
"The Duma therefore considers" the
resolution adds, that the safety OF
Russia and the maintenance Of the
liberties which have been obtained lie
in an immediate offensive in close CO.
operation with Russia's allies.
The first act of the Pan-Russian
Congress of all Councils of Workmen's
and Soldiers delegates, upon which
depends the immediate destiny of Rus
STA in regard to both International and
domestic questions, was to ratify the
expulsion by the provisional Govern
ment of the Swiss Socialist, Robert
Grimm, who is reported to have been
the medium through which the Ger
mans attempted to arrange separate
peace with Russia.

Washington.-Pros for passage
Of the Administration food control Dill
by July /, as desired earnestly by
President Wilson, appeared brighter
after the House had rejected impor-
tant amendments which promised to
delay final action, and Senate leaders.
tentatively had agreed to compro-
misses designed greatly to expedite
consideration. Rejection in the House,
on a point of order, of proposals to
include shoes, clothing, farm machin-
cry and cotton seed under the regula-
tory food provisions, cleared the way
to passage. Prohibition proposals and
Representative Lenroot's amendment
to strike out the licensing feature OF
the bill constitute the only apparent
obstacles to final vote at that time.
To pass the measure with as few
additions to the original draft as pos
Bible, in order to expedite conference
considerations, is the plan of Repre-
sentative Lever, in charge of the
measure. He told the House that mi
nor changes could be made at leisure,
while it is of the utmost Importance
that the big control machinery be
started. House Republicans are rally
ing generally to support of the bill,
one of the speeches in its behalf being
delivered by Representative Gillett
of Massachusetts, acting Republican
leader.
While the perfunctory debate was
proceeding in the Senate, substantial
progress toward compromising differ
ences was made by the leaders at ir+
formal conferences.

PRODUCERS OF COAL CONFER

Fix Prices.

Washington.-A conference of coal
producers, senators, representatives
and governors of coal-producing states
in the East may be held in Washing
ton in the immediate future to check
the rising price of coal. Attorney
General McGhee of Ohio, suggests a
conference between Ohio coal opera
tors and a members of the Council OF
National Defense in a letter received
by Senator Pomerene. The confer
ence probably will be broadened to
include other interested officials. Mr..
McGhee reports that coal operators
believe the fixing by agreement of
maximum price for coal would solve
the existing problem.

COAL FAMINE CERTAIN
WITHOUT A FEDERAL POOL, CON-
MISSION FlNDS-uRGED TO
TAKE OVER MINES.
Nations Industries Are Being Para
Iyzed by Failure to Move Cars
Wisely, is Warning.

Western Newspaper Union News Service
Northumberland pools of
coal production and distribution, and
of rail and water transportation, were
recommended to Congress by the Fed
eral Trade Commission as the only
means of avoiding disastrous coal
shortage next winter.
1.-THE commission believes" says
the report, submitted after months of
investigation ordered by Congress,
that the coal industry is paralyzing
the industries of the country, and that
the coal industry itself is paralyzed by
the failure of transportation. There
are enough coal cars in the country,
but not enough are delivered to the
mines, and these cars are not moved
to the points of consumption with the
greatest expedition, nor are they
promptly discharged" In view OF
these conditions the commission rec
ommends:
First, that the production and dis
tribution of coal and coke be conduct
ed through a pool in the hands of
Government agency; that the produ-
GERS of various grades of fuel be paid
their full cost of production plus uni
form profit per ton with due allow
ance for quality of product and eff
cheney of service); and
Second, that the transportation
agencies of the United States, both
rail and water, be similarly pooled and
operated on Government account un-
der the direction of the President, and
that all such means of transportation
be operated as a unit, the owning cor
porations being paid a just and fair
compensation which would cover nor
NAL net profit, upkeep and better
ments"
