Washington water supply is very doubt
full. In fact, it would appear that the
proposed power project actually will set
up water rights inconsistent with the
future needs of the region about the
National Capital. If the population and
the per capita consumption continue to
increase as in recent years, the water
requirements of the area will exceed the
total supply of the readily available
sources, including the Potomac River,
before the expiration of the power COM
pany's permit. Verbal conditions in
serted in the permit may be found not
to help much to satisfy the water supply
needs, because past experience shows
clearly that water rights once estab-
lished and put to beneficial use are hard
to recover, and the people will be put to
the great expense of constructing and
operating pumping plants to lift the
water from the river below Chain
Bridge. If, as suggested by the counsel
for the power company, large industrial
communities develop in the meantime
above the District line to utilize the
power, they will probably increase the
cost Of purifying the water so pumped.
The assumption that the water demand
will continue to increase at the present
measure we can apply to estimate the
probable future needs and is the very
same used by Maj. Scmervell to justify
his probable power use. Z"
Flood Protection Pr0bIematical.
THE value of flood protection is
| problematical and probably more than
! equalized by the added risk of storing
such large quantities of water so close
| TO the city.
Some other considerations make 1t
difficult to accept Maj Somervell's
| figures. His capital investment is based
on the same land values for the upper
valley used by Mai. Tyler's estimates
| in 1923-the land will undoubtedly cost
more now, especially since some Of the
owners may be convinced by his state
mentS as to the great value Of this land
for power purposes. Then the differ
entail between water and steam power

4 GOOD SOLDIER PASSES

The United States marine corps has
lost one of its greatest men in the death
of Mai Zen. Wendell c. Neville and the
nation has lost one of its finest soldiers
a soldier of the old, traditional type, and
one of the very best examples of that
type ever seen.
General Neville was a professional
fighting man. That was his life, and
from early manhood to his death he was
either fighting or preparing to fight. He
entered the marine corps upon gradu-
alton from the naval academy in 1892,
and after a few years of peace went to
Cuba with the eXpeditionary forces dur
ing the war with Spain.
From that time on he had career like
the careers that kipling was fond of des
cribing. From Cuba he went to China
for the Boxer campaign. Thence he went
to the Philippines, to serve IN the long,
bloody campaign by which the United
States put down the insurrectionary
movement there. Then, after a brief
pedition to Vera Cruz, winning the Con-
gressional Medal of Honor for his gal
lantry there After this he served in
Haiti and the Dominican republic, and
in 1917 he went to France.
In France he had his most stirring eX-
periences of all. He commanded the
famous Fifth marine regiment at Verdun
and Belleau Wood, won promotion to
command of a brigade and served at Sois-
sons, St. Mihiel, Champagne and in the
Meuse-Argonne. After the armistice he
led the Fourth brigade into Germany
That was his life-the life of a fighter,
who risked his life in almost every quar-
ter of the globe at the command of his
country.
1t is a good record. And, as one sur
veys it, one wonders if General Neville
will not, perhaps, be one of the last AM
orleans to compile that sort of record.
The old world is changing-faster
than we sometimes realize. The old days
of Kipling imperialism are dying. The
drift of the world is toward peace. There
are grounds for hoping that the profess
sional fighting man will not be kept as
busy in the future as he has in the past.
That. of course, does not detract from
General Nevilles record. He lived in a
period when there was good deal Of
fighting to do. He did rather more than
his share, and he did it well.

MRS. WESTERFIELD ENDORSED

Mrs. Evalyn Boman Westertield IS the
election for the office of county recorder
and it heartily endorses her candidacy.
A daughter of Imperial Valley plo-
neers, Mrs Westerfield has grown to
womanhood in Imperial county, being ed
ucated in its schools and serving it effl-
ciently and satisfactorily in the county
library for number Of years, six of
which she was in active charge Of the
library.
Most of the recorders work is Of a rou-
tine nature. but involves much detail
which calls for thoroughness and close
supervision. Her work in the county IL
brary has particularly fitted Mrs. Vest
erfield for this field.
Added to her capabilities is deep
realization of a pubic servants duty
toward the public. Too often those elect
ed to public office become imbued with
the idea that they are not responsible TO
the people but are superior to them
Persons dealing with any public Off
cial. whether they be of high or low sta
ton in life. are entitled to courtesy, con-
sderation and promptness. Frequently
the public official caters to those whom
he believes have Influence and ignores or
is contemptuous toward others who may
not be so influential. Discourtesy IN
public office is prevalent evil in Amer
lea
Mrs. Westerfield has pledged herself
to strict conformity with the law IN con
ducting the affairs of the recorders Off
ice if elected and has also promised to
visit other recorders offices in the state
at her own expense, that she may confer
with them and give Imperial county the
benefit of her observations so that the
office Of recorder of Imperial county
may be conducted on the highest plane of
efficiency and economy.
Possessing the respect and admiration
Of large number of friends in all parts
of the valley who have known her from
her girlhood days, Mrs. Westerfield Is
highly conscious of the trust they have
reposed in her by pledging their support
during the campaign and if rewarded
with public office she can be depended
upon to carry out faithfully the duties
which the office will impose upon her.
