v. B. A. ACTION
DUE TONIGHT

ANNAPOLIS, Md, Aug. o.
There will be a special meeting OF
the city council tonight to con-
slider a plan whereby the w. B.
and A. Railway will be permitted
to continue operation on the
streets of the city.
The council previously ordered
the road to remove its tracks and
poles and the Federal court IN
Baltimore set August 81 as the
final date for the removal of the
equipment. Petitions have been
circulated asking council to ap-
prove plan which would allow
the road to abandon its West
Street station, come into Annapolis
from Cedar Park, into the Bladen
Street Station. The road would
then run its cars down College
Avenue and King George Street
to meet the Claiborne-Annapolis
Ferry.
The new plan would take the
cars off Church Circle, where traf-
flee conditions are bad. The move
is opposed by the Republican
mayor of the city, Walter Quen-
stedt, and others of his party, but
the majority of city council is
composed of Democrats and the
fight has not developed along
party lines.

When he signed the order confirming the sale OF
the irrigation project to the irrigation district
Tuesday, Judge Webster wrote the final chapter
in story of controversy and litigation that has
embroiled this valley for nearly twenty years.
Under the conditions that existed, cooperation
of the various interests was difficult and growth
and development almost impossible. When one
considers all Of the elements Of encouragement it
is remarkable that any progress was made. No one
knew a week in advance whether he would get wa
ter or even if his water right was worth the paper
it was Writtn
But that is all in the past and that the
title to all Of the property is in the hands OF the
landowners in the district the valley may be ex-
pected to show the growth and development to
which it's natural advantages entite it.
The first two or three years will be the hardest
and will require the friendly cooperation and self
sacrifice of every one if maximum results are to
be obtained. During the final years of company
to keep the system in operation and much rehabii-
will be undertaken one at time, with the most
essential coming first
With the power plant capable of generating
current greatly in excess of pumping requirements
and producing thereby steady year-around in
come, and with the assurance of permanent wa
ter right with an unlimited water supply delivered
to the land at reasonable maintenance charge, this
will be an unique irrigation project with POSSIBLE
tiles probably unequaled anywhere in the west.
And with the earliness of the district and the pro-
ductiveness of the soil, this valley, when fully
emerge from the recent depression will undoubt-
eddy show the growth and development dreamed
Of but realized by the early settlers Of the
project

was mighty applaud when the boys
