j, s. WEATHER BUREAU TO
ESTABLISH STATION HERE

]. II. Jarboe, weather observer at
the station in San Antonio, arrived
in Brownsville today for the purpose
Of making arrangements to establish
n United States Weather Bureau
station here, in order that advance
warnings of storms may be sent to
places up the state where the storms
usually strike.
The station, according to Mr.. Jar
Doe, is to be thoroughly equipped and
is to be in charge Of two observers.
This il the fourth station established
on the Texas gulf coast, others hav-
ing been previously located at Gal
weston, Corpus Christi and Port
Arthur. The station here will have
all the facilities Of the Corpus Christi
station.
Owing to the fact that many of the
hurricanes and storms which do dam
age in points farther north in Texas
originate off the mouth Of the Rio
Grande, gathering force as they pro-
ceed northward, it is desirable to
have n station here in order TO send
advance reports TO other weather
stations.
Mr.. Jarboe said that the station
will be first class" weather sta
ton, issuing forecasts daily. receiv.
ing weather reports from other sec.
tions Of the country-a full flcdgcd
weather forecast station in every
particular. He said that while it is
to be established primarily to OBJ
serve gulf storms, it will be main
tanned throughout the year.
A river guage will also be located
at the new station, but no extensive
wirk will be made in the river survey.
In connection with the river, Mr..
Jarboe stated that, since no further
rains had been reported, that the
river would probably begin a general
fall now. The highest crest passed
Rio Grandc City yesterday, as the
river has fallen four feet there, and
Mission experienced its highest rise
this morning.
Mr. Jarboc this afternoon called on
Postmaster r. T.. CHM. who il custo-
dian e the federal building. in regard
10 quarters in that building for the
proposed station. However, there is
only one room available in the building.
Mr.. .Iarhnr learned. the others being

only few years ago was regarded by

JESSUP RESIGNS PRESIDENCY

Brownsville Man Declares In Pre-

had worked together as long as we
could"
Mr.. Jessup said his decision was
also brought about by the fact that
the various irrigation districts of the
Valley recently have concluded to
take over the engineering feature OF
the water conservation project, and
have contracted with the United
/ States Reclamation Service for that
purpose.
For that reason" declared Mr..
Jessup, Il felt that there was no need
for two organizations working for
the same purpose"
The foregoing reasons, Mr.. Jessup
stated, were given at the meeting
yesterday in explanation of his res
ignation by him.
In attendance at the meeting yes
terday were j. w. Holt Of Mission.
director from District No. 2, j. W..
Dorland of Edinburg, Director from
district No. 4, Morgan Olson of Pharr-
San Juan, director from district No.
5, E. c. Snow of La Feria, director
from District No. 8, F. B. Eaton Of
Raymondville, director from District
No. 13, and c. l.. Jessup of Browns
vile, representing District No. IL.
Other members Of the board Of
the organization are L. r. BrooNs Of
Rio Grande City, F. NJ. Taylor of
McAllen, C. A. Christensen, vice
president, Of Donna, f. f. Olson Of
Mercedes, A. Tamm Of Harlingen,
J. C. Bowie, treasurer, of San Benito,
and Robert Ray of Lyford. 1t be-
came known today that Mr.. Tamm,
the Harlingen director, resigned as
member about a month ago.
The present development in con-
nection with the water users organ
ization follow closely on the return
to the Valley of delegation Of irri-
cation district managers and direct
ors to Washington for a conference
with director A. r. Davis of the
United States Reclamation Service.
Although the results Of the trip have
not been announced by the delega-
ton, it has become known that they
closed contracts with the service for
continuation of engineering investi-
cations as to the water situation in
the Valley, the contracts being sub
ject to the approval of the boards
of directors of the various districts.
The delegates held meeting a
few days ago at San Benito TO can
vass the results Of their trip, prelm-
mary to placing the matter before
their various boards. This presenta-
tion is now in process of being ad-
vanced before the various boards. it
is understood, and it is expected that
complete details will be announced
when all the boards have acted on
the recommendation of the Washing
ton delegation.
1t is understood that the district
managers and directors are concern
ing themselves at this time only with
the matter of water conservation, and
not the question Of distribution by
gravity.
The question of impounding the
waters, they are said to believe, is OF
greater Importance at this time than
the question of distribution by grav.
| ity. They claim that the present
channel of the river and the pumping
system of lifting and distributing
the water are adequate to handle nj
least a million acres Of irrigated
| land.

THE ETERNAL PEACE

The white moon like a lily still with
light,
Wearing its stainless silence as a
prayer,
Breathes no confusion on the
dreaming air.
Making a clustered altar Of the night
And the vast world kneeling ere
mite
Unconscious of the throb Of NOR
tai care,
In worship wrapped from dust, and
unaware
OF the drab rumors that. the days re-
cite.
The little tides Of time sob in and out
Tossing the hopes OF men on fading
foam.
But the pure peace of evening
makes no moan
Above the fret, and clamor and heat
and doubt,
God sees the eternal drift of all
things home
And destiny's sure harvest Of Its
own.
