WE INVITE SENATOR WATERMAN

1t is six months until next June. AT that time,
unless special session is called Congress will rot be
in operation Even in the event of special session,
it will likely be by then.
We do not know what the condition of the Colo
rado river will be at that time but judging by past per-
formances, will venture the guess that it will once
more be the rampage, held back from inundatng
Imperial Valley by line of levees in Mexico.
Therefore, at this time, extend invitation
to Senator Waterman of Colorado 10 visit the river
then and for himself just what conditions actually
exist with reference Imperial Valleys flood menace
The senator from Colorado stated on the floor OF
the senate Saturday, that he never heard OF break
in the river evees except artificial and his re-
marks minimzed the existence of the flood menace.
Happily Imperial Valley had a number of good de-
Tenders present including Senators Johnson Fess OF
Ohio, Norris of Nebraska Phipps. Natermans col
league from Colorado and Oddie of Nevada.
There have been breaks in the levee system on
numerous occasions, though they have not been really
serious ones That they have not been serious IS due
solely to the excellent organization maintained by the
Imperial Irrigation District, at the expense OF I'M
peria Valley taxpayers combat the river every time
it starts kicking up fuss
We respectfully call to Senator Watermans at
tention the fact that all these eveeS exist In Mexico,
but were built and are kept up by American money.
This expense must continue until Boulder Canyon Dam,
or some other dam in the Colorado is built.
We hope that the Swing-Johnson bill will have
been passed by next June Even if it should be- the IN
vitation to visit US still extended to Senator Water
man. so that if he should change his mind and vote tor
the bill he may be thankful that he did So or II
he remains in ignorance and opposes the DILL he may
regret forever that he did not have part IN aiding
the greatest piece of engineering work in the history
of the country.

Huts 1000 Years Old
Still Exist on Thames

London.-Remains of huts at least
1000 years old still exist at East Til
bury, on the foreshore of the Thames.
These huts, circular in shape, vary in
diameter from eleven and one-half to
twenty feet.
Consisting Of three rings of pointed
stakes, each one and one-half to two
inches in diameter, which formed
framework. for wattles, the "skele-
tons" are preserved in the mud just
as they are made.
These huts were provided with
planked floors and burnt roof tiles as
floor coverings. Yorkshire charcoal
burners still build circular huts
formed Of stakes and covered with
turf. Bark peelers in the Lake dis
trict still are building an even more
highly developed construction, using
similar materials. Without doubt the
construction has been handed down
through countless generations from
primitive times.
From the time of Chaucer comes
the rhyme "teapot hall, all roof no
WALL" which actually describes these
early homes.

Lindbergh's Feats Draw
Men to Army Aviation

Fort Sam Houston, Texas.-That the
deeds of Charles Lindbergh have
served to stimulate interest in avia-
ton to remarkable degree is shown
by the fact that before Indy made
his epoch-making trip to Paris an
average of only twenty applications
week was received for admission to
the army flying school here, whereas
the average is now more than two
hundred week, according to Brig.
Gen. Frank P. Lain, commander of
the air training center of the army.
This increase in number of applica-
lions came Immediately after Lind
bergh's transatlantic flight and has
been steadily maintained ever since.
There are now admitted to the pri-
mary flying school 600 students year,
as compared with 300 cadets year be-
fore the law known as the "fve-year
program was enacted.
If the bill now before congress be-
comes law, the three existing army
flying fields here-Brooks, Kelly and
Duncan fields-will not only be OK
panded, but new flying field to en-
brace 2,400 acres will be established
twelve miles northeast of San An
tonic. The provisions Of the pending
bill authorize the expenditure of ST..
$4,000 for buildings. 1t would pro-
vide room for many additional cadets,
and it is stated that to the new field
would be moved the aviation force
from March field, situated near River
side, Calf.
