Calls on Congress for Common

Albany, N. Y.-Governor Smith

ment act on the statute books. And
he went further. Acceding to the urg.
ing o. his friends that he strike a note
in a campaign for the return of light
wines and beer. he denounced the one
half OF one per cent alcoholic beverage
content provided in the volstead act
as "the work of fanatical drys." calling
on Congress to modify It to com.
omn sense" maximum, and then leave
each state free to set figure below
that maximum II II so desires.
The governor emphasized, however.
that the mere repeal of the Mullan.
Gage act, accompanied by his sigma
ture. did not alter the effectiveness of
the Volstead act in its present form
as long as 1t stands unmodihed. and
served notice on all peace officers OF
the state that they would be expected
to enforce the Volstead act In It's

THE ROOSEVELT DAM

a large area OF fertile, sandy loan iy-
Ing at an altitude OF about 100 feet
above sea level and well-sulted foe
the production OF grain. cotton, alfalfa.
fruit and live stock. was unproductivs
because Of the simple fact that the
annual rainfall OF from seven to nine
inches was entirely too scsnt to admit
OF crop maturity.
The waters OF the Salt and Verde
rivers carry the drainage from some
i2.2oo square miles OF territory. II
this water could be properly stored
aad carefully spread over this great
unproductIve area during the "grow.
Ing" season fabulous crop wealth
would naturally result.
by the building OF a tremendous
dam a reservoir was formed which
holds the water which formerly went
TO waste. This dam (Roosevsat) 10

high In the center, and contains S42.-
S25 cubic yards Of building material.
The reservoir extends some 20 miles
up stream and holds SUFFICIENT water

To properly and efficiently handle such
a herculean task as the storing and
distribution Of such a stupendous vol
ume OF water over such broad area.
Il was necessary TO construct and brfnn
into use an intricate and farreaching
system Of spillways. tunnels. hydraulic
gates and something like TOO miles cf
canals.
Some Idea OF the success Of this
project can be glimpscd from the crop
report for the year 1870 The irrigated
area he'd been divided into 400 farms
which boosted population OF 1900
and contained eight towns which had
forty-one schools and forty-five church,
es and housed $1,000 persons These
400 farms yielded the following
crops, In bushels; barley. i7S.520;
corn, e6,Ds5; oats, 1890; wheat, o.
2s5; sorghum grain, 22,sss; beans.
