PROGRESS OF THE :
WATER FAMINE
Continued from page one)

| line up above the floors of their
those same gates were 1t not for
the stored water. After the twelfth
of July when the reservoir is emp
tied, the natural flow left by itself
in the river, will run in the bottom
of the channel by itself, and arti-
fetal means will be necessary to get
1t into the canals at all, and it may
go on down to the lower valley with
out serving its legal owners at all.
During the storage season Of
1889, the Jackson Lake reservoir
was not entirely filled. At the OPEN
ing of the irrigating season it was
only about 70 per cent full. We are
not informed whether this was due
to negligence or whether they held
all the water that came into it. On
the sixth of June, 1919, the record
showed $4,000 acre-feet Of water
In the reservoir. On June 80, it
showed 221 900 acre-feet, indicating
that there had been drawn of $780,
900 acre-feet, or an average Of a.
$50 acre-feet per day. Continuing
to draw this water at the same rate
it will exhaust the supply on the
fifteenth of July, and by the eigh-.
teenth it will have ceased to flow az;
Blackfoot. Then it will be running
the natural flow Of dry summer
when springs are weak by reason Of
light snow fall the preceding
winter. It will also be reduced by
the heavy evaporation and seepage
of the hot, dry weather. There will
be water for the rest of the summer,
but it will be in rather limited
quantity, and some crops will be lost.
When the cool weather of autumn
comes again the flow of water in the
stream will increase, but the grow
ing season will have passed, and it
will run to the sea and be lost.
If we get the Lane-Mondell bill
thru congress and start construction
work on some of the twenty reser-
voirs that have already been sur
veyed for storing this winter flow,
or run-off, the steps will be in pro-
gress to prevent such losses again.
Construction work on roads and
reservoirs at the time the present
crop losses would help carry people
over the losses by water famine.

NORTH Penn BANK
EXAMINERS REPLACED
Certified Accountant to Take
Il Work of State Men Called
to Other Duties
PUSEY TO SELL GARAGE

State bank examiners. who have been
endcavoring to straighten the tangled
books of the North Penn Bank, will be
released from their work and public
accountants will take their places.
Fred Homshcr, representative of the
State Banking Department in charge
4 at the bank, made this announcement
today. He said that the examiners must
leave in order to make Investigations in
various institutions throughout the
state, and that they no longer can be
spared from their regular duties to con
tinue the protracted work on the North
Penn books. Several certified public
accountants have been obtained to un-
dertake the work.
Colonel Fred Taylor Pusey. chief
state prober, -on commenting upon this
4 action. said that the plan was "A good
4 one, and he emphasized the fact that
the examiners had gained considerable
knowledge which will be of great help
in examining books in other banks
the fact that the examiners recently
had unearthed evidence to show that
the careless methods at the North Penn
had resulted in the officials paying
Z $4,000 during the last year to persons
whose checks had been returned marked
Not sufficient funds He said that
3 one man had a check for S15. 200 re-
turned when he had balance of $50.
200. Several cases of this character
Colonel Puscy said. had resulted in the
threatened suits. and the bank officials
had made payments to keep the cases
out of the courts.

ducted under the name of the Park

will be a certainty in the future. accord
ing to a prediction made today by Lieu
tenant Commander Albert Gushing
Read. L. $. NJ, pilot of the NC-4 in
her epoch making Hight across the At.
lantic. Commander Read was in Phila-
dclphia today.
The day will come when system
of air connection with the countries of
Europe. both for passengers and freight,
will become an established fact. he
said. "How far off that time is no one
knows. There are severe handicaps to
be overcome in order that transatlantic
flying may change from the status of a
spectacular feat to commercial pos
sibility.
THE chief difficulty is size The fly
ing machines of the present day are
much too small. The NC-4. because OF
this reason, would not be a praCtiCa
machine for regular lights across tht
Atlantic. Planes which dwarf those Of
today are needed, and this applies tC
dirigibes as well. A dirigible of the
"blimp' type, large enough to make the
round trip between the two CONT
nents, is II development which think
will be realized"
