Courts Decision
FavOrs District
Continued From Page Il

which will bring the All-American
canal contract to an election.
These steps are as follows;
l. A resolution Of approval to be
passed by the district board of di-
rectors tomorrow.
2. A resolution ordering Secre-
tary F. H. McIver to submit the
contract to the state engineer for
his approval.
3. A resolution ordering Secre-
tary McIyer to submit q copy of the
contract to the California districts
securities commission for approval
4. Tentative fixing of the date
Of the election, which date is now
thought to be January u.
In his ruling vacating the tenn
porary restraining order and deny
ing the interlocutory injunction,
Judge Mccormick said, in part:
The complaint in this case dis
closes no existing or threatened in
jury to the lands or water rights of
plaintiffs that is not adequately
remediable without the interposi-
ton of a court Of equity al this
time"
The ruling then sets forth the dis
trict is operative under California
irrigation district act and laws sup
plementing that act.
The ALLEGATION agreement, saws
the court, is simply an ATTEMPT to
adjust conflicting claims of Califor-
MIA groups expecting Colorado river
water, lin order that the district.
as we'll as the other public bodies
affected may meet the requirements
of the secretary Of the interior and
thereby hasten the completion Of an
All-American canal.
1T is clear that a contract which
in the sound judgment and discre-
ton of the board of directors Of the
district accomplishes such benefit
is not ultra wires, but is within the
lawful exercise of the powers of
said board Of directors
New Lands Discussed
With respect to the contemplated
inclusion of new lands under the
All-American canal contract. the
court says: ut must be presumed
that the officers and directors of
the district will not act arbitrarily
or unreasonably and that in pre-
Ceedings for the inclusion CT addi-
tional lands they will be guided by
sound discretion and a conscientious
and intelligent judgment as to
whether the best interests Of the
district will be served by including
therein such land, and a suitor is
in no position to seek the aid of
equity until he has made an effort
TO dissuade the officers and direc-
tors Of the irrigation district from
/ the inclusion of additional lands
into the district. The appeal tc
equity. by these plaintiffs is there
fore premature under the allega-
tions of the complaint
The court holds that right to
water if actually injured, NAV be
protected through civil action in
the California courts, and that tine
right may be enforced against the
person in control Of the supply and
the works by which it IS distributed
regardless Of the title, by means Of
an action in mandamus TO ccmpel
the continuance OF the distribution
in the usual and proper manner. to
