FLOOD CONTROL
CONVENTION TO
Be Held FRIDAY
Representatives From Every
Part Of Valley Expected
to Respond to Call for
Meeting at Harlingen

1T is important that every friend Of
flood control in the Rio Grande VAL
ley be at the convention In HarlinRen
Friday afternoon" was the statement
made in n telegram received this after
noon BY the Herald from County Judge
Oscar c. Dancy and J. T. Canales, who
are in Austin in the interest Of flood
control legislation for the Rio Crande
Valley. Following in the text of the tel
egram:
THE situation here seems hopeful.
We have prepared an outline Of a
bill On which all conflicting inter-
ests In the Rio Grande Valley can
agree. and we will meet with Gov
ernor Neff at ESQ this afternoon
to request the submission of recla- >
nation and flood control subject.
Every friend Of flood control should
be present at the Harlingen meet
ing Friday afternoon"
Every section Of the Lower Rio
Grande Valley is expected to be repre-
sented at the flood control convention
called BY the Brownsville Board OF City
Development to be held ut Harlingen.
Friday afternoon Considerable interest
has been aroused In all parts of the
Valley relative to the proposition OF
organizing a reclamation district COM

special act Of the legislature with the
object of attaining effective flood con-
tro., can be taken rs a criterion, the
Harrington convention promises to b.
the largest ever held in the Valley" .
member Of the Board of City Develop
ment stated this morning after having
spent several days in the upper part Of
the Valley. The consensus Of opinion
Il 10 the effect that the district plan il
the most feasible and effective way to
-xecure. flood control,y hc continued,
''but there win be u great diversity or
opinions as to details. II is generally
conceded in all parts Of the Valley that
unless the Valley works as d unit no
effective flood control plan can be
evolved"
"The Brownsville Board OF City De-
velopment in issuing the call. has plac-
ed the matter squarely up to the Valley.
and IL will be the duty OF the sconven-
ton to arrive at some definite plan up
on which the necessary legislation may
be based" another member stated.
"What Brownsville and the entire VAL
ley wants Is flood protection. A few
more floods like that OF last June would
ruin the Valley. and there is no logical
reason why every part of tha Valley
cannot get together and arrive at some
definite plan to submit to the special
session Of the legislature. We have al-
ready wasted too much time. and TX the
Valley is TO be n unit in this matter
it Is very essential that this convention
take action. and IL II also very essen
tial that every part Of the Valley be
