ACKNOWLEDGEMENTS,

James B. Grand, President of the
Phoenix Chapter of American En-
gineers, made the following address
before the Tucson Engineers Club
Sept. %, 1926.
II want to thank you for your
kind invitation to address you. The
papers, I notice state that | am to
deliver a non-political address on the
engineering features of the Colora-
do river. I am like the little girl,

er. | am confident that more land
will be economically irrigated by
electrically driven pumps than will
be irrigated bym gravity flow
Arizona at no great distant date
is going to be a manufacturing state.
The development of hydro-electric
power is going to make this possible.
Our sister state on the west is keen-
" alive to this fact and great deal
of the opposition to power Develop
ment in Arizona has been directed
from California both openly and I'M
der cover. There is no reason why
the United States government should
not accord to Arizona the same pri-
vileges as she would accord Californ-
la to aid in building up industrial
and manufacturing centers when
Arizona has just as advantageous
locations, more water, more raw ma
terial and equally as good living con-
ditions.
Notwithstanding the estimates of
the many millions of III. p. that can
be developed, the development of this
power will proceed just SO fast as
it is possible to secure the necessary
funds to satisfy the legitimate de-
mands and no faster. This will mean,
in my opinion, an initial develop
ment of some two hundred thouS-
and H. P. to be followed by a like
amount every five years in progress
sive ratio. This would result in a
complete development of the river,
should necessity demand, in a per-
iod of about one hundred years. The
method of development will naturally
follow the lines of least resistance
as influenced by cost, River control
should begin in the upper reaches,
thereby lessening the danger from
floods as each power unit would be
built
Diamond Creek Project
This is solely power project
with a limited storage capacity and
no water will or could be taken from
the river. It will not interfere with
any flood control, reclamation or
power project on the Colorado river.
It will help the flood control to the
extent of its limited reservoir capa-
city, about one million acre feet. It
viii benefit reclamation because it
would stabilize the flow. The de-
velopment of power here would not
only fill want now existing but
furnish electric power to future de-
velopment.
Every law, rule and regulation of
the United States and the State gov
ernments have been complied with at
a cost of more than one hundred and
fifty thousand dollars and am now
at loss to understand how the Fed
eral Power Commission can take the
position viz: that the parties pro-
ceeding regularly under the laws
of the United States shall be denied
the privileges accruing under these
laws, pending possible action by
congress on further laws which may
themselves, in turn, be held up pend
ing action on future laws to be en-
acted. But I continue to rely on the
integrity and justice of the Federal
Power Commission.
The Diamond Creek Project can
supply power cheaper than the Gov
ern-built Boulder dam and IN addi-
ton thereto it will pay taxes to the
Federal and State government IN
stead of going down into the pock-
cts Of the already overburdened tax
payers to raise the enormous sum
necessary to build the colossal Boui-
der Power project. 1t will require
four years to complete the con-
struction of the Diamond Greek pro-
ject, the services of more than one

Canada Gets Oranges

In the period from 1920 to 1924 more
States oranges went to Canada, says
than 80 per cent (around 1.SOO,O0C
boxes) of the total shipments of United
the governments commerce reports
Smaller amounts were shipped Ia
England, the Philippines, Cuba, China
Newfoundland and Labrador, Mexico
and New Zealand British trade
statistics show that for each of
the years from 1920 to 1923 imports
Of oranges from the United States
comprised less than l per cent of the
total orange imports of the United
Kingdom. A comparison of United
States exports of oranges for the pc
RODS 192O-1924 and 1909-19l3 discloses
that our recent shipments were
around 1,995,770 boxes a year, as
against prewar consignments of L.
O05,247 boxes year, an increase OF
around 100000 boxes a year. Can
ada has always been the best market
for our oranges.

Influenza Deaths Figured

The pandemic of influenza took more
lives in 1918 than was originally esti-
mated, according to Edwin o. Jordan,
fellow of the American Public Health
association, who now places the world
loss at 21,000000 deaths directly as the
result of the spread of this disease.
Originally the estimate was lower.
The large number of deaths mark the
influenza scourge as the worst that has
visited the world since the "Blaek
Death" of the Middle ages.
