of the irrigationists who might be
benefited by the conservation of the
flood waters of the straem.
The McNeary bill now before con-
gress carries appropriations totaling
$250,000,000 this mon ey to be plac-
ed at the disposal of the reclama-
tion service for the use in the i'm
pounding of flood waters and the di-
version of water onto new lands, as
well as to develop power wherever
necessary In view of the passage
Of the McNeary bill Director Davis
and the Federal Power Commission
have entered into an agreement that
no project where the water is para
mount to power will permits for the
development of power be granted to
private or corporate interests: that
the federal government will be Civ
en- absolute control. Mr.. Davis is
imbued with the idea that the con-
troll of the flood waters of the Col
orado river are paramount to all
other projects because the impound-
ed water should have the first con-
aideration in connection with the re-
clamation of about 100000 new
acres of land Power to the amount
of 100000 horse power may also be
created, but the creation of this
power must be subordinated to the
possibilities of irrigation. BY the
impounding of 25,OOO,00O acre fees

opment of power may be put in

into potential energy. 1t is the enor-
nous Importance of flood control in
the Colorado river and the diversion
of the water onto the rich lands of
the Colorado basin that makes the
project one for federal control New
acres to the number of at least three
million will be brought under culti-
vation, these lands being raised from
worthless desert wastes to potential
PRODUCERS, having value from $3.50
to $500 per acre. They will, if pro-
perly conserved, provide home lands
for thousands of people, especially
the boys who served their country

one of the most important parts of
the United States provided the pow
er to oDerate railroads and every
piece Of machinery in all the sur
rounding country. 1t will make pos
sible the conversion of farm and

With Secretary Fall and Director
Davis, we too, believe the project too
important to go into hands other

FALL FAVORS A GOVERNMENT
DAN IN BOULDER CANYON

That no one but the federal gov
ernment will build the dam in
Boulder Canyon, is the opinion of
Secretary of the Interior Fall. Sec
"elary Fall is conversant with ,..l,-
tItlHns III the west and southwest
ana We feel thai he will use his
'-ler office to rrotect and furiher
the interests of the public land
states especially in the matter of
power and water development. What
the public lands need is water and
power conservation, and the extern
sion of reclamation of the waste
lands of the country The import
ance of a big water and power pro-
ject in the Colorado river lies in the
reclamation of the most wonderful
lands in the world lying along the
lower reaches of that mighty stream
These lands are at least the greater
part of them, have the ability to pro-
duce crops every month in the year
Director Davis of the reclamation
service, quotes extracts from a re-
cent letter of Secretary Fall, as fol-
lows, in explaining the situation of
the Boulder Canyon project to the
Imperial Irrigation District officers:
Secretary Fall expresses strong
conviction that no dam should be
built on the Colorado river by any
authority excent the United States,
as it is too large, too important and
involves too many interstate and in
ternational questions to permit the
interference of any other authority
He thinks it is not desirable to per
NIT any of the interests to contrib
ute to the Investigations but in view
of the urgency of the matter has
may be invited to do so fer the pre-
sent.
"The Secretary has instructed me
to prepare estimates of appropria-
tion in the amount of 100000 for
the investigation of this project,
from which, if it passes, he expects
to reimburse the municipalities
which contribute to the investiga-
ton. | have already wired you and
other municipalities to this effect.
"The Secretary will require the
contribution to be made, if at all,
with contraetural agreement. that
! it does not involve any moral or le-
gal advantage concerning the allo-
cation of benefits, and with this pro-
vision, objections to the contribu-
tions should disappear.
II hope the various municipalities
| including irrigation districts, will
have sufficient interest in the devel-
| opment of that region to make the
necessary contribution to keep the
work going. Otherwise a year will
/ be lost and the expense increased.
Sometime ago the subject of re-
ceiving donations from various So
cieties and organizations was taken
up by the reclamation service and it
was this proposition that lead the
/ Imperial Valley farmers to protest
the acceptance of money from Los
Angeles or sany other city, because
of the expressed intention of that
city to secure control of power on
the Colorado river to the exclusion

Under Burning Wreck to
Save Phelps.
CLOTHES CAUGHT FIRE
Is Now Out of Hospital But
Hands and Face sWere
Burned in Rescue.

An act Of heroism Of that kind for
which the United States Marine
Corps IS famous was performed Fri
day morning when the H-16 flying
boat crashed. causing the death of
Mitchell Phelps, n1achinist's mate, it
became known yesterday.
Private Albert J. Smith OF Thomp-
son, Mich, was on watch at gate No.
l at the time of the accident and
when he saw that the plane was about
to crash he ran to the telephone and
turned in q crash report before the
plane had struck. He then ran to-
ward the place where he saw the
plane would strike and arrived just
as 1t burst into flames.
Undeterred by the burning gasoline,
Smith crawled under the wreckage
for the plane had landed on its back,
and pulled out Phelps, whose clothes
were blazing. Smiths clothes were in
flames when he pulled the mechanic
from the wreckage and his hands and
face were badly burned. He was taken
TO the base hospital but was able to
return to light barracks duty last
night.

seat of the plane, was not burned. He
was pulled out of the wreckage by an
other chief, w. J. Wilkinson, who fol-

RIGA, Letvia, Feb. 12.-Signing of
a permanent peace treaty between Po-
land and Soviet Rsssia has been post
poned until March and perhaps later,
a number of the delegates to the peace
conference here said today.
The chief reason for the postpone
ment is because of differences regard
ing the amount of Russian gold to be
assigned to Poland. the Russian dele
gates offering 25.000 900 gold rub1es
and the Poles demanding 10000, 600
gold rubles. Both parties wish to
avoid a rupture and are endeavoring
to resume the sittings to consider the
question of railroads.

conference. have completed their work
and suspended sittings. The clauses
with reference to hostages and refu-

HARDING IS BUSY
ON CABINET PLANS
President elect Also Speaks at Lin
coin Exercises.
(Ry Associated pressl

ST. AUGUSTINE, Fla, Feb. ~
While the cabinet problem was taking
on new elements of uncertainty today,
President e1ect Harding let it be
known that his plans for international
peace and disarmament also are far
from definite Foundations. Taking
note of published reports that a dis
armament conference would be called
early in the new administration, Mr..
Harding said he made no such plans,
although the idea fitted in with his
general scheme for an association of
nations. 1t was a feature of the prob
lens, he added, to which he would
give no specific attention until he
came into the presidency and was
fully advised as to the status of dip
tomato relations with the other pow
ers.
Repeatedly the president -elect has
included reduction of ornaments
among the requirements for a peace
association and his close advisers be-
lieve the subject will receive his ear
nest attention as soon as he takes up
negotiation for his peace plan. The
separate. conference to consider arma-
ments, however, is one on which opin-
ion is divided. The days cabinet de-
velopments concerned chiefly Charles
G. Dawes and Frank o. Lowden, both
of Illinois, and mentioned for the posts
of secretary of the treasury and sec
rotary of the navy, respectively. The
net result was to leave more in doubt

learned authoritatively that the ques-
ton of his accepting a cabinet post
had not been settled Published re-
ports that he has declined finally the
retaryship of the navy are under
stood to be in error, and it is believed
the presldent-elect still hopes to have
him in the cabinet.

It sometimes happens that a cor.

scattered. While the corporation
is rot unmindful of the benefits Of
a New York transfer agent and

advantage OF their services in the
belief that II would be a conven.
fence to their local stockholders to
have the transfer agent near homo.
In such a case the interests of all
stockholders can be served by the
appointment Of a local transfer
