NEW CLUB IN
ADOPTION OF
A PLATFORM

BRAWLEY. July 3 Members Of
the Colorado River Control Club met
here last night in the third session
since the organization Of the club
two weeks ago. Important action
toward solving the problem OF the
valley s future was taken at the
meeting. Adoption of club plat
form or declaration Of principles was,
an imprtant part of the gathering.
The declaration follows:
Declaration of Principles
We, as property owners and resi-
dents of Imperial Valley, believing
that she future welfare and pros
perity of our territory depend upon
the enactment by the congress of the
United States of America of legisla-
tion providing solely for the immedi,
ate construction OF flood control
and storage dam on the Colorado
River, and that our water and ir-
rigation rights should first be pro
vided for and preserved, and that
the distribution of power rights
should incidentally be provided for,
have, for said purposes, formed the
Colorado River Control Club, and
hereby adopt the following prin-
ciples, viz:
= First: To. promote by every
proper means the early construction
eff n flood control and storage dam
on the Colorado River at site to
be selected by proper governmental
authority, and which viii afford
adequate flood protection and stor-
age for the Imperial Valley and all
other irrigable lands in the lower
Colorado River basin.
. Second: To urge that the dam
be constructed in such manned and
on such site as will make possible
the development of the maximum of
hydro-electric power. but that the
development of power shall always
be suhordinated to the use of wat
er for irrigation, and TO flood CON
troll. >
Following the adoption of the plat
form, 0. G. Horne, FL Centro bank
er, was elected treasurer of the
club. The meeting was adjourned
following action on routine business
matters and the next meeting was
scheduled for Fl Centre ON next
Tuesday night 1t is to be held in
the Masonic Temple.
