When the Gibraltar dam just fin- lshed by the Santa Barbara water de- partment impounds the five billion gallons of water it is capable of hold ing m storage, this city will be as nearly safe from a water famine as IS "SarivaP with it's Roosevelt dam
 Just to visualize what the great con crete structure in the Santa Ynez gorge means to this community The clty could grow to a population Of 40,- ooO people and two years could pass without drop of rainfall and still there would be no dearth of water supply.
 That is the kind of safety which homeseekers demand and the Gibraltar reservoir means more to the rapid de- Velopment of this city than any pre- vious investment, according to Charles O. DuMars, the manager of the branch of the House of Arnold. distributor oe Maxwell motor cars in Santa Barbara
 Everyone knows of the Gibraltar of Europe, said MT. DuMars, but few have realized that right here in Santa Barbara there is a Gibraltar serving humanity in as important a way as the

but there was a sufficient amount of daring in the idea to stimulate me to undertake the trip and without more ado we started over the fierce grades of San. Marcoss Pass. across the San ta YneX mountains and up the can yon in the rocky bed of the stream channel where no automobile had ever been before'
 Describing the trip, one of the en- gineers who accompanied Sergeant Kern said: There are few, if any. men or cars with sufficient endur- ance and stamina to survive the punishment of that drive through the Santa Ynez Gorge. The reward of the accomplishment was only the satisfaction of conquering such tre- mendous obstacles but it was evil dently sufficient for Sergeant Kern who seemed to glory in the achieve ment. Tribute should also be paid to the Horseshoe tires on the Max well Marine, for if ever rubber and fabric were subjected to tremendous train it was on this motor jaunt into the wild country of the Gibraltar dam.

great rock bulwarz at the mouth of the Mediterranean.
 As Uncle Sans marines are the travellers of the sea, thousands of them have seen the foreign Gibraltar. but only one of them has been so fortunate as to visit the Gibraltar of southern california. This lucky marine is Ser geant Harvey A Kern, who was dele gated to make the investigation by Major J. c. Pagan in charge of the re- crulting station of the marines in Los Angeles. and Ast week with the al- ready well known land cruiser of the marine corps, The Maxwell Marine made a trip of inspection to the great Gibraltar dam just finished by our city water department.
 Tn talking with Sergeant Kern he said, No automobile has ever been driven to the Gibraltar dam and when I was. in Santa Barbara re- gently I determined to show that the slogan of the marines We go every where was as true in southern Cali fornia as in the more remote quar- ters of the globe. They said it coldn't be done because there was no road.

For the information of those not l familiar with the great dam, some of 1 the dimensions of the structure will | be of interest. Its crest is 150 feet above the bed of the river and it's foundation is solid rock 9 feet below. ] making the structure 175 feet high. It is 75 feet thick at the base and contains 53,000 cubic yards of mass concrete. The spillway is 27O feet long and 10 feet below the crest of the dam, located on rock bench at one end of the dam, so that the flood water. after falling about 20 feet yer will have a further fall of 130 feet over a natural rock precipice into the river channel some distance below the dam.
 over this spillway-before any water will reach the crest of the dam-far exceeds the measurements of the flood of 1914, as published by the geological survey in it's report of 1915. That flood exceeded by 100 per cent any previous figures since the records were established. Even should the spillway fail to pass the maximum flood, the flow of water over the crest of the dam proper would not endanger it.
 ''The reservoir formed by the dam will impound billion gallons Of water obtained from a excitement area of more than 200 square miles wholly within the national forest re- serve and protected from pollution by laws enforced by the forest rangers. The normal run-off of this area may be taken as 12 billion gallons.
 The city is the absolute owner of the land occupied by this reservoir. also 4,60O acres covering the sites of the Mono, Blue Canyon, Juncal and Main river reservoirs, all located above Gibraltar and of future value for additional storage as required.
 The tunnel through the Santa Ynez mountains leading the water to the city is 1s,600 feet long-mostly concrete lined with a minimum cross section of 31a feet by 51s feet and a fall of 30 feet. The south portal is 1.1S6 feet above sea level. After furnishing power. due to a drop of 800 feet, the water will be collected in and distributed from the recently completed Sheffield reservoir holding 40 million gallons. The surface of this reservoir is 656 feet above sea level.
 "A high service will be maintained directly from the tunnel portal, thus any foothill property up to HOO feet elevation can receive gravity water The whole undertaking has been well planned and reflects great credit to it's origina tors.''

dressed a suffrage celebration under

declared both of the candidates had
to be kicked into action.
Miss Void predicted that women
will not rush into political parties
but will be slow to join them and
will not become hidebound partisans.
Miss Katherine Flanagan of Con

opponent of suffrage. had been instru-

ton of the policy to be followed by

9trike was resumed when the execu-
tive committees of the three great
Unions reaSsembled here this morning
The committees Of the organizations
1.-The Miners Federation, the National
Union of Railwaymen and the Trans
FORT Workers Union-discussed the
miners strike vote at joint session
last evening. which resulted in the
unanimous passage of resolution de-
claring that the miners claims were
both reasonable and just and should
be considered forthwith
SWhile this resolution does not
necessarily mean a strike is certain, it
Wi1l without doubt greatly influence
the situation, and was somewhat of a
surprise, as it was considered doubt
fpl if the alliance" would support the
miners.
Considerations bearing on the stu
&tion are the fact that the two-thirds
majority favoring strike was OBJ
tSined by a very narrow margin, and
approximately 100000 miners alb
stained from voting and may probably
n regarded as opposing stcppage OF
work. These may well check the ex-
tpemists, as the general public and
British industries are generally
against strike.
