UNIFIED Press Staff Correspond

SACRAMENTO, Dec. 19.-An i'm
mense flood control, power, irriga-
ton and navigation project designed
to cost $170000,000 and to provide
work for 25 900 men during the next
four years, was placed before the
people of California today for APP
prevail or rejection.
The plan, called the Central Val
ley water project, would affect the
Sacramento and San Joaquin val
leys, establishing a series of dams to
generate electricity and conserve the
water supply. 1t would be made pos
sible by the sale of self-redeeming
bonds, interest and principal OF
which would be met by revenues
from the sale of power developed in
the project. Taxpayers generally
could not be held liable for the
heavy expenditure, according to 1
ruling of Attorney General U. S.
Webb.
Although devised to affect direct
ly only the two valleys, the project
was made of statewide interest by
a 12-year study by state and feder-
al engineers, and by passage of the
water act by both houses of the 1893
legislature. Governor James ROlph,
who made the water plan che of
his campaign issues, signed the bill,
but the filing of referendum petit
tions to submit it TO a vote of the
entire state prevented it from be-
coming effective with the other sta
tutes adopted in 1888
Expect Light Vote
AS a result, 2,648,7O7 persons in
8,O59 precincts were eligible to vote
in the special election today. The
registration was one of the largest
in the states history, but the vote
was expected to be light, due to the

SEEK PROMPT
SOLUTION Of
LIQUOR TAXES

WASHINGTON, &c. 10. UP)-
Agreement by Christmas on the
main features of a liquor tax bill
was the program of the house ways
and means committee today as in
dications increased that the con-
troversy over the plan for sharing
federal liquor revenues with states
would become a heated COMPRESSION
al issue.
Democratic leaders on the COM
mittee indicated that they were
striving to have these provisions in
the measure:
l. A whisky tax of around $3.50
a gallon, and a beer tax of S. a
barrel.
2. Return of 25 per cent of fed
eral liquor revenues to states which
refrain from imposing gallonage
taxes.
3. Authorization for the President
to lower initial import duties for
trade bargaining purposes.
The controversy was an involved
one in connection with the revenue
sharing plan, understood to be
strongly favored by the admins
tratiOn.
One of the questions was whether
the basis Of distribution should be
production and consumption n
states, or consumption and popula-
ton.
Several wet members of the COM
mittee favored use of consumption
figures alone, method which
would deprive such states as Ken
lucky where whisky is made but
not legal to drink, of a slice of the
revenues.
In addition Republicans we're
trying to line up with a Democratic
minority to defeat the plan, and
indicated they expected support
from New York Democrats, and
others from states which already
have imposed gallonage taxes.
