COLORADO TOPS LAST iEvEE
IN THE COTTON REGION

CANTU. Cal. June 29.-The C1lo-a
do river has topped the Volcano lake
levee at three points above the Tor.
tuoso waste at the eastern end nf the
levee late today. but the levee was
still holding. according to word re
ceived here The Volcano lake lew
is the last bulwark between the flood
waters between the Colorado river, be.
lieved to have passed their peak. and
the cotton lands of the lowe Imperial
valley.
General Manager F. y. CrorhoIrn.
talking from the levee today, said
there was almost no free board for
stretches OF 100 yards ~ more at
many places. and at one point, where
break threatened last night. the
water was held back by sand bags.
The Southern Pacific railroad ,cni.
pany. which would have its Lower Cal.
ifornia line endangered il the levce
gave way, came to the rescue late yes.
terday and put men and material cn
the job to work with the irrigation
district forces in an effor. to prevent
further damage.
All of the settlers between n. Vol
cano lake levee and the head Of New
river have been moved out I'D have
taken most Of their movable property
and livestock with them. For this rea-
son loss of life in the event of a break
is not anticipated.
The Saize levee. which lies between
the Ockerson and the Volcano, is sub
merged. Engineers said it was prob.
ably so weakened by saturation and
pressure as to be valueless for defense
The Ockerson levee was reported TO
be safe
