United States government to each pay
one-third Of the estimated cost OF $75,-
900. The Arizona legislature made the
appropriation and the government ap-
proved it. The United States govern
ment also made the appropriation, but
it was vetoed by Governor johnson on
the report Of the state engineer that it
would cost $50, 900 to build. In order
not to lose the Yuma bridge appropria-
tion, it was necessary to raise 5000
In cash. A large part Of it was raised
by the citizens of SRh Diego, by pri-
vate subscriptions, the balance by I'M
perial county and Yuma. The bridge
was completed for less than $75, ,O00--
the first bridge across the Colorado
river for 1000 miles. Col. Fletcher
later went befoHe the state legislature
and received the refund of the $25 900.
There has been continued opposition
from Los Angeles and nearly all of
Southern California against the con-
struction Of the Holtville- Yuma road,
Los Angeles particularly, desiring the
travel TO come either via Blythe or
Needles direct to Los Angeles, while
San Diego persistently fought for its
only direct eastern outlet, Yuma.
Funds are absolutely assured now for
the completion Of the road. The dis
tance from Yuma to San Diego is 1876
miles. The distance from Los An
Eeles to Yuma, via Brawley and River
side is 304 miles.

DREAM STREET rs
GRIFFITH'S LATEST

y ". Griffith comes 20 US again
with new production which has Been
acclaimed work Of art and the most
unusual story of symbolic love and ro-
nance. This new Griffith work is
Dream Street" 1t will be seen at
the Palace Airdome theatsr for two
days beginning next Thursday.
Dream Street" has been called a
dramatic comedy. The characters
were suggested by those of Thomas
Burke in his Limehouse stories. While
they may be from "Gina of China
town." and "The Sign of the Lamp"
still these characters are found in all
the corners of the world where ro-
nance, love and beauty hold sway
They gaze through wistful windows
out on their Street of Dreams and one
cannot help loving them as they pass
along life's highway amid their ira
gedies and comedies of existence.
There are three personages stand
ing out like classic models of great
art. They are Gypsy Fair, Spike"
McF Fadden and his brother Billie -
This trinity of youth evolve the tense
and teeming story of Dream Street."
They fascinate with a spell akin to the
haunting harmonies of great aria
and they are not without their effec-
tive moral to the adorned tale of their
loves and romances. Gypsy is music
hall dancer. "Spike" and "Billie" Nc
Fadden are of the district of the docks.
Spike is handsome and mighty With
his fists among men whom he cor
quers, but he has also a golden voice
that captures the girls. They fall in
love with Gypsy after seeing ner dance
Evil days fall upon them and through
a series of complications and a niur-
der brings them to the attention of
the police. Sway Wan, 4 great Chi
nese gambler, is also desiring Gypsy
and so he plots to attain his cad. Ir
the symbolism of the story there
comes forth the Good one, typ!ied by
street preacher and the Evil inflI-
ence shown through the nomadic vio-
linist. who charms under the spell Of
music and causes wickcdness to tenn
porarily triumph.
Carol Dempster is the Gypsy Fair
while Ralph Graves and Charles EN-
met Mack enacts the roles of the Nc
Fadden brothers. There is specially
arranged musical score.

committee, which after discussion was
held by all to be insufficient"
To this outlined plan the committee
found numerous objections. Summar-
lied, they were:
!. That R. T. Fisher, reported to be
next in authority to the Chief of the
Federal board, told the committee
that "under no circumstances" would
the board continue man in training
for a period longer than four years.
: 2. That the committee realized that
many men had already been under
training for two years, and could
therefore have but two more years
for training.
: 3. That "the price Of the land
agreed to be paid in contracts with T.
w. McDevitt is too great to permit of
the trainee acquiring substantial
equity with the period of four years
under the contracts as outlined"
