Drainage Meeting
Is Held at NelO Uln,
j. P. Graf Was Elected Presi.
dent of This District At
Session Yesterday. -

Secretary John H. Macbeth of the
Minnesota Valley Drainage and
Conservancy district returned from
New Ulm last evening after at
tending meeting of that organiza
ton at New Ulm May Is and II.
The. meeting was held in the rooms
of the New Ulm Commercial club
The first steps taken after the call
ing of the meeting to order by Vice
President o. P. Flaten of Granite
Falls was to elect a successor to
President A. B. Kaercher of orion
vile, who recently died ]. P. Graf
was elected as president to succeed
Mr.. Kaercher Other members oil
the organization present were: S. S,
Striker of lie Sueur, treasurer OF
the organization, e. J. Geyer a board
member from Ortonville and F. l.
Cliff of Ortonville, attorney of the
district together with John II. Mac
beth of this city, secretary of the
organization
Consulting Engineer Meyer, rep
resenting the United States govern
ment, was present at the meeting
and reported that an impounding
dam at the north of the Cottonwood
river, which would hold back in the
neie-e orhood OF six million feet of
flood water, would be entirely feas-
ible and would be the only practi-
cal means OF giving relief to the
farmers down the Minnesota river
below New Ulm relief from spring
floods. Plans and specifications for
the proposed dam will be made and
actual work on the proposed i'm
provement will be commenced as
soon as possible. AS soon as the
plans are ready for approval, snoth
er meeting OF the organization will
be held at New UlrS. and the details
of the plan worked out. Everyone
at the meeting thought that the plan
suggested by Engineer Meyer is the
only practical one for the relief of
the farmers in the lew lands below
New Ulm extending down the river
to Mendoza.
The plan is to assess /the land
owners in the valley proper so much
an acre for the benefits derived. The
assessments would extend over a
period of twenty years, thus max
ing the payment each year light.
Z. " Willard, state drainage en-
gineer, was also present at the
meeting and put his stamp Of APP
proyal on the proposed plan for the
formation of a lake or impounding
dam at the junction of the cotton
wood and Minnesota rivers near
New Ulm.

ence With Mine Operators
ASSOCIATED Press Dispatch.l


Washington d. c., May 1S.-Sec-
rotary Hoover met today with about
forty coal operators from non un-
ion production fields to discuss
means of checkin- the tendency of
coal prices to rise at the mine in
some districts.
The conference called by Mr..
Hoover after some increases in
mouth Of mine prices had come to
the attention OF the administration
and President Harding had left it
be known that steps would be taken
to meet the situation.
Secretary Hoover asked and OBJ
tanned today the approval of the
leading operators of non union BIZ
luminous coal fields for a govern
ment pan of getting the coal in
dustry by voluntary action to
put stop point on increase of coal
prices during the period OF. the ex-
isting coal strike" ~~
The plan calls for the creation of
a committee of operators with gov
eminent and consumers represen-
tatiyes serving on it In each dis
tr1ct where coal is being produced,
through which all orders for coal
will be cleared. A similar general
committee will be set up in Wash
ington and Mr.. Hoover assured the
coal operators that he had Attor-
ney General Daugherty's opinion
that such Co operative action to
reduce and hold down prices in the
pubic interest would be legal"
