ley not to give information. but to
learn more about the great project
III which the entire southwest is
interested. He surprised his aud
ionce by stating that he was in I'm
perial Valley in 1906 when the river
broke through here and he recalled
the feverish activity of the early
settlers in trying to keep out the
flood waters and save their homes
from destruction.
He showed by his knowledge of
those early days that he is thor
oughlv familiar with the big prob,
lem of flood control and his words
conveyed the information that in
him Imperial Valley has strong
ally.

have Il very strong bias in
favor of Imperial Valley, as far as
development of the Colorado river
is concerned, and l pledge YOU

congress see the necessity of apprO-

Nevada is vitally in need of

We stand together. YOU will get
flood protection and the water you
seek for irrigation and we will get

Pittman of Nevada. who won the
sympathy of all who heard him by
his stirring plea for his state and
his expressed willingness to do rev
erything possible TO help Imperial
Valley.
Must Have Power
"Our only means of getting water

said, "and in order to do that we

he wonld put aside all personal

that his mind is open on the desir-

He read the resolution passed bv

tions for power permits on the Colo.

and urged that the seven states in.

national calamity he declared.
"There is not too much land un-

out, - he said. "When this coun-
try was composed Of the 13 original

Graceful Speech
! In what was probably the most
graceful speech of the evening, Sen
! ator Ashurst of Arizona made n
deep impression upon all who heard
him. After Illustrating his position
with reference to the Colorado by
: two humorous stories, he asserted
that all the state of Arizona asks
is that when Il dam is built ifr>the

ientlv far enough upstream to en-
able irrigation and reclamation of

"The differences between Ari

Strengthened out that the feeling

no doubt where the big majority

Through The Static

We rather feared last night that after such a hot day, tho effect would be reflected in radio recep- ton and there would be continuous static throughout the evening, as is common on many summer nights. To the contrary" static made itself scarce. but the fading on all wave lengths made up for the loss of our friend. o. M. s. Even WBZ faded noticeably We couldn't bring in a distant station to save our life, that is, except WHIT, Chicago, which can be depended upon to come through. rain, snow or anything else.
 
 Probably the most interesting thing we heard last night was the axe being ground by MEAN at Prov idence shortly before o'clock. It seems that MEAN was supposed to broadcast with WNAC. Boston, the proceedings of the Sharkey- Malone tistic battle from Braves field in Bos- ton. WNAC will broadcast the event, but the announcer at WEAN, in a superb example of sarcastic or atory told US just why MEAN will be unable to broadcast the event, as previously announced.
 At least, the announcer said the possibility still remained last night that the fight would be broadcast, but apparently 1t was a 100 to shot against 1t, because he spoke in far from endearing terms about the forces which will prevent the station hooking up with Boston as per schedule.
 IL seems that the New England Telephone company owns the wires usually employed by the Shepard Stores to relay the programs from the Boston studios to the Providence studios. But this time the company baked and refused to give permis- sion for the relaying of the fight. They claimed at first that they were opposed to rebroadcasting but 1t later developed that the wires from the Braves field 10 WNAC are owned by the Western Union Tele- graph company and the telephone concern refuses to allow a physical hook-up between telephone and tele- graph wires The announcer stated that If the Shepard Stores would in- stall telephone wires from the field | to Boston, the company would allow the program to be relayed, but the man at the mike said that the ex- pense would be too great and alto- gether unnecessary. and the Shep- ard Stores would not stand for it.

 WEAR at Atlantic City played a pleasing little game Of hide-and- seek with us and the station won in a walk. It was a case Of "now you have 1t, now it's gone" there and we searched high and low several times In order to uneath the broadcaster. What was the the matter, we don't know. When we first tuned in on the station 1t was located on about 2SS meters. We heard m announce ment and then the station was gone. We finally brought 1t 10 light again on about 2S6 meters, from where it went back abain. We finally got tired of running back and forth. so we sought one of the tanner broadcast lngs.
 At this time we went on the porch, remarked that it was peach of a night and, after trying to get some cool air, returned to the radio set.
 The United States Marine band, playing on the Washington Monu- ment grounds, was rebroadcast by WGY, WIZ and WTSZ from WRC at Washington. The transmission from WBZ was not the best we have heard, there being present a distor- ton which we couldn't get rid of to save our neck. The announcements came through as if the speaker was talking with his mouth full of mashed potatoes. WGY reproduced the band music clearly, but the sta ton faded considerably and there was little enjoyment 10 be had from that locality. WIZ was in the middle of a great roar and WRC was out of reach. We heard one announce ment. that regarding the final num- Der of the concert. "The Star Spangled Banner"
 Because They All Love You" and Big Bad B.!l' were two numbers presented by the Steeplechase Pier orchestra from WPG, Atlantic City. That orchestra is really mean dele gation and both selections were beautifully orchestrated.
 We ended up with selections by Lew Poilack from WHN. He eang I'm Sorry and 'Ro. Ro, Rosie" Not so bad, either, but We wanted to get outside where the cooling breezes blew The radio set was perspirng freely too which probably accounted ! for Lew's liquid tones.
