WASHlNGTON, March lie

engineering staff to meet in Dcnye.
Friday wbcn plans for beginning
work on Boulder dam next year viii
BE- discussed. he said today.
While cnroutc to Denver he VIII

and Iowa state College to lecture
on the dam.
'Thc reclamation bureau" Mead
explained, is going ahead with lis
plans on the supposition that the
seven state compact necessary to
give force to the Boulder dam bill
VIII bc ratified. -
Fiv" states have approved the
measure already. Both the Utgi
srnat" and house Of representatives
rave actcd favorably ON the meas
urc and Governor Dcrn is expected
to sign it. Arizona has not passed
or it.
] Expenditure Of the $10,0O0,0o0
/ provided for work on the dam dur
ing 1880 is the most important
question to be tackled by Mead and
! his engineers at Denver, He pro.
poses to have everything in shape

old ASSESSMENT
FIGURES WILL BE-
USED BY COUNCIL

At last nights meeting Of the
city council, it was decided not to
accept the equalization assessment
figures prepared by }. d. McCa:y,
for this year, and instead the 1925
figures with such changes as the
council may deem necessary, viii
bc used.
The board adopted a resolution
calling for bids on a wiring con
tract to combine the Main street
ornamental street lighting system
and the city pumping plant. The
plans and specifications for the
contract show that the work VIII
cost approximately $2,936 and win
save the city around $500 per
year.
Fred Kenyon appeared before the
board with request that he BE-
permitted to lease the west end of
the city park property, bounded on
the west by Eighth street, on which
he proposes to construct n swimming
pool. The council told the applicant
to get all his plans and specifica-
tions together and they will talk
the matter up with him on neat
Wednesday night.
Proving that councilmen can be
human, the board unanimously
voted AN increase in pay for
"Sparhic' Frocland, driver for the
El Centre fire department. Tne
stork recently presented "Sparkic'
with twins and Tom Rcams told the
councilmen twins cost plenty of
money these days. The board agreed
and acted promptly
The city engineer was instructed
to prepare plans and specifications
for paving that portion of Broad
way cast Of Fourth street and wcsr
of the Southern Pacific tracks
Notice of intention for the work was
also adopted. Councilman Clements
and Gianola opposed the PROPOSE
tion, bat were outvoted by Counri}-
men Couch, FaWcett and Bucklin.
The engineer also was instructed
to prepare plans and specifications
for extending sidewalk and curbing
on Main street west of Twelfth
street TO Imperial avenue, on the
south side of the street.
\ number of routine demands
were passed.

tween the American and Mexican
