&. c. LA RUE'S REPORT ON COLORADO
RIVER

The Department of the Interior has just
issued comprehensive report Colorado
River as a result of engineering studies by the
Geological Survey. The author is e. c. La
Rue, hydraulic engineer, who has made a
study of the river during the last Is years. In
the course of which he has made boat trips
aggregating nearly 1000 miles along the river
and it's major tributaries, including the whole
of the Grand Canyon.
Less than half century after the discov
cry of America by Columbus a Spanish expe
dition sailed up the Gulf of California and ex-
plored the lower reaches of Colorado River.
1t was not until the middle of the nineteenth
century, however, that the river began to play
an important part in the development of the
West. After the Mexican War the lower 300
or 400 miles of the stream was explored in
detail and in 1869 Major John Wesley Powell
traversed by boat the then wholly unknown
canyons through which it flows from Colorado
to Nevada. Prior to the Civil War boats on
the lower reaches Of the river afforded means
of transportation for large region in the
Southwest that was then difficult of access.
This navigation persisted until transcontin-
entail railroads were constructed through Ari-
zona and Southern California late in the
nineteenth century
The basin of the Colorado which affords
the second largest concentration of irrigable
lands and waterpower sites in the United
States has for the most part an arid or semi
arid climate, and irrigation is therefore
quired for the production of profitable crops.
Irrigation in the basin has been extended
slowly but steadily until more than third Of
the land irrigable from Colorado River is now
receiving water With the river as now reg
ulated the present irrigation consumes the
entire low-water flow, and in occasional dry
years there is a water shortage Further de-
velopment of irrigation is therefore dependent
on storage of food waters and regulation of
discharge. The power resources of the Col
orado are as yet practically untouched, but
heavy demand for electrical energy in the
Southwest, which has resulted in the develop
ment and of power sites nearby is
about to force a rapid development of all
available power sites the Colorado within
reasonable transmission distance of the mar
kets. AS with irrigation, so with power, less
than a third of the potential energy can be
developed unless storage Of flood waters and
regulation of discharge are provided for

Arizona state miner., 1925-12-05

At his home in Phoenix, 601 NJ.
Tenth Avenue, at II O'Clock Tues
day night, Harry Bruins Watson,
manager of the Watson Publish
ing Company, passed into the
Great Beyond. He had been con-
fined in bed for over three weeks
and the cause of death was a
weak heart and pneumonia.
Mr.. Watson was nearly 72 years
of age and the oldest Arizona
newspaper publisher. He was we'll
known in Phoenix and all over the
State, having run for State Sena-
tor from Maricopa County last
election. The Arizona State Miner
at Wickenbura, where he publish
ed it for over six years, and the
Five Points Star of Phoenix, now
a little over year old, are the
two weekly newspapers that have
occupied Mr.. Watson's time since
coming to Arizona.
Yarwood G. Hockey, 334 w.

remains, and the funeral services
will take place at their chapel.

source of water supply for hundreds of thou
sands of acres of land in Arizona and Califor-
MIA but menace to these lands. In 1905 the
river as it had done intermittently in the
past broke through it's silty banks and forced
it's way into the low-lying Sa1ton Sea region
of California where, instead of the barren
desert of few years before, there -four
ishing irrigated ranches farm homes, and
thriving communities, threatening them with
inundation and complete destruction Much
damage was done, but with the expenditure
of millions of dollars and more than two years
of persistent effort the river turned again
to the Gulf of California. The danger of a
recurrence of flow to Salton Sea is ever pres
ent, and the safety of great areas of highly
productive land and prosperous towns can be
assured only by storage Of flood waters and
maintenance of a we'll designed system of
levees and the bank works protection. Thus
safety from inundation complete use of waters
for irrigation, and adequate development of
potential power demand storage and regula
tion works on Colorado River.
The Geological Survey report, published
as WaterSupply Paper 556, deals with the
comprehensive development of Colorado River
below the mouth of Green River, with particu
lar reference to food control and the develop
ment of hydro-electric power Records of the
stream flow are summarized, and estimates
water supply available at many points under
a variety of conditions presented. The
principal reservoir sites are described, and
their availability and usefulness are discussed.
Plans cross sections, and area and capacity
curves together with engineering and geologic
discussions, are presented for all known dam
sites on nearly thousand miles of river all
of which has been surveyed and mapped In
summarizing Mr.. La Rue suggests that the
scheme of development should be comprehen-
sive and should provide for the maximum
practicable utilization of the potential power,
the maximum storage of water for irrigation,
and above all the effective elimination of the
food menace and an adequate solution of the
silt problem. Such a plan, when executed,
necessarily covering many years, would in his
opinion include the construction of 13 dams,
which would make available 1888 feet of head
or fall for the development of power and a
maximum of 42,0O0,0OO acre-feet of storage
of flow, and storage of silt. Under this plan
nearly 100000 acres of land could be irri-
gated by the waters Of Colorado River, 1920
900 continuous horsepower could be developed
in the canyons below the mouth Of Green
River, and domestic water supply could be
million in urban communities of the South
