BIG SAVING SHOWN
|NOPERAT|ONOF THE
WATER USERS ASSN.

Due to savings effected in the cost
OF operating the Salt River Valley
Water Users association during the
past two years, the organization will
be able to meet the $203,000 payment
to the government, refunded last
year, without assessment to the
shareholders, it was announced yes
terday by r. A. Reid, president, in his
report to the council.
Mr.. Reid also stated that the as
sociation will make an assessment
for next year for only $406,000 due
to the government and for the special
construction work voted in 1919,
levying no assessment for the opera
tion of the project. There will also
be a material reduction in the cost
of operation and maintenance over
the good record made during the past
year.
Negotiations for the financing of
additional hydro electric power with
out assessment to the shareholders
are progressing favorably. according
to the report of the president 1t is
hoped that definite plan will be
submitted within the year and it has
been definitely concluded that this
additional power can be made to pay
all payments due the United States
government and operate the project
without assessments.
The old board of governors of the
association and the council met yes
terday morning and turned over the
business to the incoming board and
council. The new board and council
held joint meeting in the afternoon
and re- appointed C. c. Cragin general
superintendent of the Water Users
association. Mr.. Cragin is entering
upon his third year in that office.
Fred g. Henshaw was e-appointed
secretary and John L. Gust, attorney.
j. P. Bush was appointed to the of
flee OF treasurer to take the place of
Doane Merrill, resigned. Mr. Bush
has been chief accountant and office
manager for the past Is months. He
will now act as treasurer, chief ac-
countant and office manager.
The board of governors voted that
the general superintendent be au-
thorized. to expend $4,000 of next
years drainage assessments before
due, IL necessary, to complete the
most important underground assess
ment work.
Mr.. Reid delivered his semi annual
report to the council, showing the
marked Improvement in the eff
cheney of the management. He
showed that in place of the large
deficit of nearly $300,000 there is now
nearly $500.000 in cash on the books
to complete the six months operation
of the association and to complete
the construction program for 1921 %.
The past six months operation of
the association and maintenance of
the system was completed at a saw
ing of more than $4,000 over last
year. This in spite of the fact that
there are being operated more than
100 miles of canals fore than the
previous year. The great saving was
accredited chiefly to the efficiency of
organization among the departments
and a we'll trained operating force.
The power system is now producing
far more revenue than formerly and
is giving better service, according TO
Mr. Reds report. In addition to this
the association has been busy on
construction of drainage works, new
canals and general improvements
throughout the system.

the cost or government is too expensive for the
results obtained.
