HARLINGEN, April 23.-The re-
port OF the international Water
commission, filed with the U. s.
Congress, late Tuesday afternoon
did nothing toward settling differ
ences over the distribution OF
waters OF the Rio Grande between
this country and Mexico. according
to advises reaching here from Wash
ington.
The possibility Of q great system
OF storage dams on this side Of the
river was mentioned, however. This
Is in line with the program Of the
Association OF Irrigation Districts
in the Valley. which already has
begun efforts In this direction.
Even though no definite recon-
mendations we're forthcoming from
members Of the commission con-
corning distribution OF water be-
tween the United States and Mex
leo. 1t was felt that more progress
was made this time than ever be-
fore.
1t is believed, according to those
watching the situation in Washing
ton. that further study OF the pro-
blem by a joint commission will re-
suit in n definite. workable recon-
mendation concerning the manner
in which Rio Grande water can best
be divided.
The report Just made, ii is held.
recognized the prior claims OF the
Valley 10 q large share Of water
and added strength to the plea OF
Valley irrigation districts that they
be allowed 10 conduct exhaustive
surveys along the river to determine
the best methods Of storage Of
water for irrigation purposes and
the best locations OF dams for
doing this.
Within the next two weeks, pres
entations seeking such permission,
1t is expected will be filed with the
state water board. In the meantime.

districts are meeting TO sign papers
