BRITAIN ANXIOUS
 FOR DISARMAMENT
Willing to Cooperate in Any
 Way, Cecil Says

London, April R>--The British government will participate whole heartedly in any international steps leading 10 general measures Of dis armament, and Lord Cecil will go to Geneva prepared to urge some definite scheme.
 This was made clear in the house of commons today by Godfrey Lock or-Lampson, parliamentary under secretary for the homo office, an- swering a question raised by Arthur ponsonby, who was a member of Ramsay MacDonald's labor ministry.
 "What we have 10 do, if we can, is 10 exercise the demon of internation- al suspicion" said MT Lockcr-Lamp- son. Lord Cecil will certainly go 10 Geneva prepared 10 urge some definite scheme of disarmament, We took the initiative with the United States regarding naval disarmament because 1t was appropriate to do so, but in all probability 1t will bc more appropriate for some great military power at Geneva 10 take the initia- tive regarding military disarmament.
 Pointing out that the British navy, army and air force had been reduc- ed, the secretary declared vulnerable | trade routes must be protected and nothing must be done to endanger them. but the government was very anxious 10 cooperate in any general scheme for the limitation of armies and their force.
 The British case at Geneva, he added. would be in the capable hands Of Lord Cecil, and he anticipated that something substantial would emerge from the sittings of the pre-. paration disarmament commission
 which he termed lone more mile
 stone on the long difficult road t(
 universal peace"

BUILDING LOG CRIB DAM
NORTHFORK RANCHERS

Construction work has started on
the building of a crib dam at the
headgate of the Northfork ditch
which will guarantee to the stock
holders of the Northfork Ditch COM
pany adequate water during low
water season. With the washing
away of the old ditch several years
ago, a new headgate and ditch was
built last spring, which proved to
be on too high a level to receive
an adequate supply of water during
the fall season.
The structure will extend entire
ly across the Northfork at the point
of the headgate. 1t will consist of
a low log and rock crib, with a
plank apron which during the lower
water cas- will throw sufficient
water into the ditch at all times of
the year
Engineer Howard Bell has the
contract for the dam and George
Chase will be in charge OF the
work.
