WANT FEDERAL AID
More Funds Needed to Protect
the Sources of Navigable
Streams in Idaho.

More federal aid is needed to pro-
tect the sources Of navigable streams,
and Governor Davis has written let
tiers to members of Idahos congress
sional delegation urging them to secure
a larger appropriation for this pur-
pose for the state of Idaho.
In the letter he says:
There is a matter that I wish to
take up with you for your earnest and
early consideration.
1T would be impossible for us to es-
Innate the importance to Idaho of ade-
quate federal appropriations to protect
the sources of navigable streams. The
Weeks law of March l. 1911, set out
terms by which this protection was
available. We are deeply interested
in additional allotments to Idaho.
"The state has made available for
co operative protective work the sum
of $4,000, but the federal government
allows US only $4,000, $4,000 for the Sec
ton north of the Salmon river and
$4,000 for the region south. Not only
are we interested In the protection of
the sources or navigable streams but
our most vital obligation is to the irri-
cation interests which have such an
effect on the prosperity of the state
II am taking the matter up with the
state board of land commissioners and
they will no doubt send you a formal
request for your presentation to con-
gress, but in the meantime 1 wish you
to be personally informed Of the neces-
sity for concerted and early action"

PROCLAMATION ISSUED
he proclamation is as follows:

The proclamation is as follows:
There is need that a united and ex-
traordinary effort be made if Idaho is
to reach the quota of Victory notes
allotted to the citizens OF this state
rs their duty by the national gov
eminent. We have been asked - sub
scribe $11,150,000 of Victory bonds as
our just share of this patriotic oJ,iga-
ton. Approximately so per cent of
this amount has been subscribed.
That Idaho should fail in the Vic
tory loan duty and thus mar an ire
proachable record of loyalty and de-
Votion to America, both in the gift of
manpoWer and generous financial sup
port during the great national crisis
is an intolerabe thought.
Such is inconsistent with the true
spirit of the citizens OF this state and
l do not believe we will permit our
beloved commonwealth to be thus hui
inflated before the eyes of the nation
and the world.
Therefore, as governor of the state
of Idaho, | do now hereby declare the
hours from 100 p. m. to IL: 90 midnight
on Wednesday,, May :. 1919, a legal
holiday and call upon all citizens Of tire
state to set apart that time as "A time
especially dedicated ito finishing the
task of raising the remainder of Idaho's
quota of Victory notes. During the
hours named all private business eX-
cept banks. which shall remain open
for the purpose of receiving Victory
loan subscriptions only, shall be Gus
pended and | ask every true citizen to
devote all of his or her energy during
the time designated TO be the great
patriotic duty before us.
In witness where of have hereunto
set my hand and caused the great seal
of the state of Idaho to be affixed.
