The Reach of the Spoken Word

But these messages, however
carried, lacked the direct and per-
sonal qualities of conversation.
They were but symbols of speech,
the shadows of the spoken word.

scientific research has extended
the reach of mans voice to thou
sands of miles. The Bell Systems

Signatures of several hundred citizens on
the petitions presented to the board and many of the
most prominent men III the county were present at the
board session. Among them were men who heretofore
have been opposite sides Of the Imperial Irrigation

That many of those who have heretofore been OPP

For years citizens honestly desrous of seeing the

such Moses has appeared. Instead politicians and
would-be politicians have continued to wrangle
and counter-accuse until the people have often
despaired of ever getting anywhere.
The adverse opinion by the district attorney was
not unexpected. He has contended all along that ap
preparation of public funds by the district be used
Indirectly for lobbying purposes, is illegal and he
could not consistently give any other opinion with ref

However, such appropriation has been authorized in
