2 DEAD IN GAS TANK TRAGEDY AT PHARR
PEASE DENIES CHANGE
In PLANS FOR GRAVITY

C. III. Pease of McAllen, manager OF
the Lower R.o Grande Valley Water
Users Association, who last night gave
an illustrated lecture to the people OF
FL Jardin on the purpose of the gravity
canal movement, declared in Brownsville
today that there has been no change in
the general program for the bringing
about Of gravity irrigation in the Valley
The statement was made following rum
ors that the gravity plans were TO be
dropped. and that attention was TO be
given mainly 10 the question OF con
seryation Of water.
Il want to say that one of the great
est steps ever taken in connection with
the gravity movement was the recent
trip Of the irrigation district managers
and directors to Washington, and their
tentative agreement with the Reclaim
alton Service for the retaining Of United
States engineers in the Valley TO pur-
sue Investigations as TO supply and use
Of water for irrigation purposes. This
agreement, approved by the district
boards. is certain to result in splendid
accomplishments"
Mr.. Pease said that the water question
in the Lower Rio Grande will never be
solved until the government has decided
definitely to take hand in it,
No man. @lr. Pease said, can fore
tell what is going to be done in connec
tion with this giant proposition. Om
first work is TO get the direct interes;
Of the government in the affair. After
that has been done then perhaps a def
inite program of accomplishment can be
decided upon. All that we can do now
IS 10 carry on our invests igations which
work will be assured if the irrigation
district boards approve the agreement
made between the ueiegates to washing
ton and the United States Reclamation
Service"
Mr.. Pease said that it has long been
the desire of the Water Users Associa-
tion that the irrigation districts as dis
tricts become active in connection with
the water conservation and gravity pro-
jectS.
He returned to McAllcn today.

FORD PARADE DRAWS CROWDS
Partial List of Prize Winners.

The opening number on the Parish
Fair program, the Ford Day parade,
took place promptly at three o'clock
Friday, just as we were going to the
press with our last forms.
There were a large number of
very prettily decorated Fords in the
procession, mostly trimmed with dis
plays Of iberia Parish agricultural
products.
We find it impossible to get the
list of prize winners for publication
in this issue, but feel very confident
that the car driven by Miss Amelia
Pharr, representing Mother Goose,
and Peter Pumpkin Eater with his
wife in a hugh pumpkin, will come
in for the first prize in it's class.
For some reason or another there
were practically no Fords entered in
the contest for the 'Rattiest" car,
and we are at loss to understand
why-for there are certainly lot
of Rattle looking Flivvers obstruct-
ing traffic on New Iberia's streets
1t may be that the owners are not
willing to admit the evident appear
ance of their pet BUSES.
Any way, the parade was big
success.
Special mention is due to the cars
entered by the Magnolia School, the
American Legion and the High
School car, carrying "Big Joe" AL
fano in full football uniform.
A big throng Of spectators witness
ed the parade, which speaks in elo-
quent language of the great popu-
larity of the Flivver Brand of auto
buses.
