RECLAMATION
100000
ACRES IS
URGED
Final Day of Convention
Sees VIM. Jennings Bryan
and Governor Bamberger
on Platform; Delegates
to Remain over Tomorrow
lRx Associated Pressl

LOS ANGELES, April 3.-The
convention of the League of the
Southwest entered the final day of
business deliberations with the ex-
pectation it would adopt the report
of the resolutions committee out
lining approval of the Colorado
basin project which would make pos
sible the reclamation of from 81
100000 to 100000 acres of land, by
means of irrigation of river waters,
incidental to the generation of power
to develop 100000 horsepower.
William Jennings Bryan and Gov
ernor Simon Bamberger were to talk
this afternoon.
There will be banquet at the city
club tonight where several prominent
speakers will talk.
The formal adjournment of the con-
vention will take place tonight but
most of the delegates will remain to-
morrow to visit the aviation fields
where series of stunts have been ar
ranged and to inspect the irrigation
system of the San Fernando valley.
The future of the Southwest was
depicted in glowing terms by the
speakers who told of the peculiar adj
vantages and tremendous resources of
the region. With the project to har-
ness the Colorado river and develop
it's great basin as the underlying theme
additional data concerning the stupen-
dous benefits to accrue from develop
ments was given.
Among the outstanding statements
made on behalf of the project and
which constituted an overwhelming
weight of proof in it's favor are these:
The volume of the stream and the
contour of the basin are such as to ul-
100000 to 100000 acres and the
horse power.
unlike any other in the world and is
the result of ages of disintegration and
other natural forces.
The soil, when better understood,
can and will be made to produce much
more per acre than now, even in the
famed Imperial Valley.
The climatic conditions, soil, water,
and cheap power form home build
ing condition superior to any other on
earth.
J.NC. AiilSOH. lmperi4 Vauey ell
gineer, who has been identified with
Imperial Valley development for the
past Is years, told the convention that
there had been much waste in irriga-
tion works because of inadequate
knowledge of the river and the forces
that influence it's flow in the lower
basin. He urged that, in addition to
providing storage above, general
plan be adopted for handling the
stream in the lower levels. Private
interests cannot successfully operate
Colorado river works, he said, but
there must be federal or state control
to lay out a plan for the good of all.
Soil is the greatest single asset the
United States has, said Macy H. Pap
ham of the United States bureau of
soils. He told Of the character of the
soil of the Colorado basin and said it
has almost unlimited possibilities of
utilization. Even Imperial Valley,
where astonishing crop results have
been secured, has not yet reached the
zenith of the productivity it may attain
by further study of the soil and how to
use it to the best advantage.

The Delta Implement company is
moving from it's present location to

The company has made the principle
of Service" one of it's main policies
