FLOOD STORY is
BASED ON RUMOR

On looking up the facts on the
supposed outbreak Of the New Riv-
er that was said to have caused so
much damage among ranchers near
Salton Sea, it has been found that
most of it was rumor and not based
on fact.
New and Alamo rivers are at this
fine carrying a larger head OF
water than ordinary, due to the fact
that local weather conditions have
not warranted such large amount
as usual being distributed in the
canals and as a consequence it must
be gotten rid of through these two
channels.
This would of course cause q
slight raising of the level of the
Salton Sea and would cause some of
the land that lies adjoining the
sea to become inundated. Homo
steaders have been SO anxious to
file on land that they have filed on
much that in such time as this
belongs to the bed of Salton Sea.
In the ease of the lands of the
Southern Pacific Railway company,
) the district has an allowance of a
three foot rise 1t is very apparent
of course that Il three foot rise i'll
the level of the Sea would cover a
large area.
A survey is being undertaken by
the district to determine the con.
tour of the lake at the low period
and also at the high period, and an
effort is being made to induce the
Government to withdraw that land
from entry that is liable at differ
ent times Of the year to be affected
by the overflow.
