FALLS PROJECT
rs RETRIEVED

1.-THE American Falls reservoir has
again been retrieved from the realms
of uncertainty and it's early construc-
ton seems asured," is the statement
made recently by Warren G. Swend-
sen, commissioner of reclamation for
the state of Idaho, in his report to
Governor C. C. Moore, on his recent
trip to Washington to work for a
final settlement Of the American
Falls difficulties.
When it became apparent to Gov
ernor Moore that crisis had been
reached in the progress of the Amer
lean Falls bill owing to a misunder-
standing on the part of Congressman
Cranston and because of the refusal
of the Indians to accept the appraisal
price for the lands to be flooded, the
Governor requested Commissioner
Swendsen to go to Washington and
make final presentation of the
true facts in the case.
81 am immensely pleased at the
outcome of Commissioner Swendsen's
trip to Washington" said Governor
Moore yesterday, "and l trust that
the Aemrican Falls matter will be
hurried through Congress, so that.
actual construction may begin early
this spring. / can not help but feel
that the construction of the Amer
lean Falls dam marks a new era of
development and prosperity for all
people of southeastern Idaho and es-
pecially the farmers. Idaho people
should unite to bring this to a sue
cessful conclusion"
Commissioner Swendsen's report
continues: after a weeks effort in
Washington with R. E. Shepherd,
president of the American Falls res
ervoir district, John Thomas of Good
ing, and Idaho's congressional dele
cation at Washington, the objections
to the enterprise were removed. Mr..
Cranston was provided with the ac-
tual facts relating to it, and, with
the valuable assistance and recon-
of Commissioner D. w.
Davis and the secretary of the inter
ior a plan of procedure was formu-
lated and adopted under which the
necessary appropriation for the prof.
ect would be incorporated in the in
terror appropriation bill and the nee
essary legislature embodied in sep
arate bill covering acquisition of the
Indian lands"

POULTRY NOTES

Do not feed the goslings until 4s
hours old, but give them tender, finely
cut grass and water.
Turkeys for breeding should be In
good breeding condition; If fat the
eggs are largely infertile.
Some geese will hatch two broods OF
goslings In a season If well managed
Goose eggs require % to 81 days to
hatch.
The young are chicks until their sex
can be distinguished or possibly even
a little longer. A brood is a collec-
ton of chicks cared for by one hen or
in a single brooder.
A stewing chicken weighs about
three pounds and q rooster four
pounds or more.
A constitutionally strong bird, one
that passes through the mott quickly
and easily, is better layer than one
that develops all kinds of ailments
during this period.
Individual hens with pale-colored
shanks, in such breeds as the Rock,
Wyandottes, Reds and Leghorns. are
considered better layers than those
with bright-yell0w shanks.

LABOR PARTY
QUESTION is
NOW TABOOED

WASHINGTON, Nov. s. The
movement within the American
Federation of Labor to set up q
Labor party in this country receiv-
ed such n severe setback by the
rcsults of the election thE tie
more conservative federation lead
ers here today were confident the
question would not come before the
federation convention at Ell Paso,
Texas, November II.
The wing of the federation and
the allied railroads brotheriloods
which have opposed the whole idea
of developing labor's present non
partisan political effort into a di-
rect party affair, feel that their
position was justified by the cleo
ton.
Labor endorsed nearly 800 con-
pressional candidates. Of these some
$50 were elected, while only about
90 were defeated. This was re
garded here as n distinct demons
tration of the success labor may
have when it clings to its old poh
cy of "rewarding its friends de
feating its enemies.
