CHICAGO, Sept. 90 Eight
thousand bankers gathered here to-
day for the fiftieth annual conven-
ton of the American Bankers AS
sociation. Early arrivals were una
nimous in the opinion that bust
ness in general is on the upgrade.
There has been Il distinct i'm
provement in the past three months
in many lines of business, one bank
er said.
Business conditions generally are
favorable and the European situa-
tion has improved, another said.
The presidential election may be q
disturbing factor, it was pointed
out but will soon be removed.
Still another banker said that un-
derlying conditions were sound.
Stocks in nearly every line of en-
deavor are low. Buying today is
governed largely by the demand and
merchants and manufacturers are
not speculating upon the future.
Committee meetings were held to-
day. The general convention gets
under way tomorrow.

of Imperial Valley to go to Ham

and learn of its manner of con

ial Valley can get All the water in
the river and then-7have their pie.
turfs taken in the day bed of the
Colorado below the wier. For two
months no water has been flowing
pas: the wier. every drop being di-
verted.
To the scouts will be explained
low this peaceful rived bed by next
June will be 40 feet deeper than il
now is, how the water will be some
ten or twelve feet above the pres.
ent surface making q pouring tor.
rent some fifty five feet deep and
wreaking vengeance should 1t be-
come embarrassed, through break
in the levee system. The Boy
Scouts will take along their hiking
outfits and lunches but the district
will provide them with their even;
ing dinner so that they will not re-
turn home on empty tummies.
The idea is to make the trip
educational and to show something
of the working of the largest in.
dependent irrigation system in the
world. The date has not yet been
decided upon. .--..
