energy for its own use and said ease
ment shall terminate and revert to
the City upon the occurrence of either
or both of the following conditions. !.
(a) The assignment or attempted
assignment or transfer by the United
States, except transfer to the associ-
alton of water users above men-
toned,
(b) The sale or distribution to
any other person, firm or corpora
ton, of any electrical energy trans

days after notice in writing (refer-
ring to this contract) to desist from
such sale or distribution shall have
been given to the Project Manager OF

vice, or chief officer of the water
users association hereinaboye mem
toned.
This agreement shall become effec-
tive TO bind the United States immed-
lately upon its approval by the pro-
per supervisory officer of the United
States Reclamation Service.
No interest in this agreement shall
be transferred by the contractor to
any other party, and any such trans
fer shall cause annulment OF the con-
tract so far as the United States is
concerned; all rights of action, how
ever, for breach of this contract are

utes of the United States.
Follows Old Survey
The proposed highway, which has
all the assurance of being cemented
following the approval OF the con-
tract, will follow the former survey
insofar as those who have this i'm
provement in mind know. Estimates
on construction will undoubtedly be
made according to the survey as or
iginally approved by the State High
way Department at Carson City.
The route as plated starts at the
highway on the west city limits on
Williams Avenue, following that
route to Maine Street, then to the
corner OF Center, thence east to East
Street, where it turns south on that
street, making another turn at the
corner OF Saltwater Avenue. contin-
uin east to the city limits.
Considerable discussion has been
INDUCED in regarding the continu-
ance of the highway down Maine
Street to the high school, this being
urged by many property holders and
some of the business men. This
would be carried on through private
funds, as the city, state and county
have nothing to do with the contract
beyond the intersection of Main and
Center streets. 1t was suggested at
the recent council session that IL II
was found too expensive to figure on
concrete that it was believed that
we'll packed gravel road could be
finished to the objective point. Good
road boosters, such as Mayor Clark,
George Coverston, l. IL. Kent, Obbie
Harrell and others are already
spreading propaganda on continu-
ance of the good work that is in
sight.
City engineer Crehore is of the
opinion that work will be under way
sometime in March.
The endeayor of a number of cit
izens to put this matter through
should receive extended favorable
comment. Those who have visioned
a better condition and have gone into
their pockets to see il through. and
have exhorted their neighbors to
lend financial and personal assist
ance, are entitled to as much credit
as those who passed the necessary
resolutions, contracts and documents
to make permanent improvements ~a
factor in the future of this city.
To those who have the best inter
ests of this city and section at heart,
the determination to put the high
way through, congratulations should
be extended. Some will complain, IL
is expected, but the people in the
main are for the betterment, and a
clean road is the first step along
other big things that can be mater
ialized, and II all reflects back to the
solid proposition that with unifica-
tion of forces that Failon can shove
over many a big scheme that is for
the benefit of this community.
