"XXTELL, here we arel" Bob said

into a wide driveway over which
arched the branches of enormous
oak trees. Its a lovely old place,
isn't it, Joan2"
Lovely" she agreed. The beauty
of Rosewood Manor actually was
breath-taking.
The scene before them was like an
exquisite setting from a motion pic
ture of the old south. Huge trees
framed the spacious colonial home,
white with green shutters. Large
columns extended to the roof. Com
Portable looking chairs, swings and
benches were scattered about the
wide veranda.
Truly 1t was a beautiful home.
Adding a final touch to the charm
ing scene were hundreds of jonquils
Drawing the brisk March weather
and lining the driveway.
The car was coming to a stop.
Bob switched off the ignition and
climbed out
Wonder where every one is?" he
asked. Just then the wide, front
door swung open and a group OF
young people came out.
Hello, Bob! Thought you'd
never get here. We've been delay

WASHINGTON, June 8.@The
taxpayers are getting a break in
| the public expense of the senate in
vestigation. They are saving few
dollars every day because the SEN
ate succeeded in getting a special
rate on the hearing room ampli-
fier system.
Ordinary equipment of the type
/ being used to make the Morgan
testimony audible in the large SEN
ate caucus chamber costs $50 for the
first day, with a somewhat lower
rate as the equipment continues
in use.
Because of the wide publicity Civ
en- the Morgan hearing, however, a
special rate which barely covers
the cost of installation and main
tenance has been agreed upon. The
amplifier company hopes to make
up the balance through publicity
gained by use of its trade name in
news stories.
Wiring the caucus chamber for
Eoud-speakers has been a diff
cult job and frequent criticism with
the arrangement has been heard.
The imposing battery of Morgan
counsel is in a sort of pocket where
the attorneys can hear only with
the greatest difficulty. When the
questioning swung to Van Swer-
ingen income taxes there was a
great craning of necks and cupping
of ears in this quarter.
The Morgan counsel protested
earlier in the day over the unsatis-
factory arrangement and wanted to
have one of the big, silyery loud
speakers pointed directly at them.
1t was explained by an attendant
that this was impossible, because
it would carry the amplified voice
directly across the witness loud
speaker, causing some kind of elec-
trical or ETHEREAL commotion.
Republican senators arriving for
caucus on taxation features of
the national recovery bill were
pleased to find the entrance to the
conference room thronged with re-
porters. Their party conclaves had
been given scant attention since the
Democratic landslide swept them
into the minority.

into the caucus room.

UNCLE WIGGILy'S CLOVER
PARTY

Once upon a time when Uncle
Wiggily was hopping over the
fields, on his way to the woods to
look for an adventure, the rabbit
gentleman saw, down in the hollow
amid some little hills, big patch
of clover. The clover was thick and
green, for near it ran little brook
of water and the water, with the
warm, June sun, had helped the
clover grow so rich and juicy that
Uncle Wiggily, seeing it, said
This would be a lovely place to
have a party. That's what I'll dol
I'll give a clover party for my wife
and all my little rabbits, too. OF
course Nurse Jane Fuzzy Wuzzy
may also come to my party. But as
she isn't very fond of clover, Ill
have to let her bring some cheese
sandwiches"
Uncle Wiggily was standing on
one of the little green hills looking
at the patch of clover. Now he hop
ped down TO where the clover grew
and nibbled a few stems to see how
it tasted.
"Oh, it's just wonderful" he
said, twinkling his pink nose. my

THE ALL-AMERICAN CANAL
ENDS Double Menace)

lEndS Double Menace)
TOO MUCH water at some seasons and
! not enough at others, has been a
double-headed problem which has con-
fronted Imperial Valley ranchers since
the pioneer days.
Older residents of the valley recall the
disastrous flood of 1905-06-07, when the
Colorado flowed into the valley through
the break near Hanlon's Heading doing
damage amounting to many millions and
leaving scars which have not been Grad
icated even to this day.
Others can remember the high waters
of 1921 and other subsequent years when
it was necessary to wage a relentless bat
tie against the flood-waters of the river
to keep it from coming into the valley
once more.
Contrasting these incidents was the
summer of 1924, when it became neees-
sary to put water users on pro-rata
basis, parceling out the water in meager
quantities. Crops were lost in many in
stances and ranchers were ruined finan-
cially. Similar water shortages have oc-
Cured in more recent years, though not
to the same degree.
Protection from flood menace and
drought has been one of the main issues
in the long battle for control of the Col
orado river An ample supply of water
at all times, which can be regulated to
use as needed, has long been recognized
as essential to the welfare of Imperial
Valley.
Construction of Boulder dam and the
All-Ameriean canal assures the crea-
tion of such condition.
The dam will impound a body of wat
er 90 miles in length having capacity
approximately equal to the entire flow
of the Colorado for a period of year
and half. Thus the river will be brid-
led at that point and its waters, instead
of running riot, or almost disappearing
entirely, will remain at an even level
Under the terms of the Colorado river
compact and the All-American canal
contract with the United States govern
ment a definite and officially recog-
nized water right priority is granted for
Imperial Valley The United States, un-
der the contract, obligates itself to the
Imperial Irrigation District to deliver
water at Imperial dam, from Boulder
dam storage reservoir, in perpetuity and
without cost, in sufficient quantities and
in a regulated flow as ordered by the
district
Delivery of water in needed quantl-
ties at Imperial dam means the ellmlna-
ton of flood menace and drought for I'M
perial Valley. 1t assures an equitable
and even flow of water at all times
not too much at one time and not enough
at another, conditions which are equally
undesirable for the rancher.
AS explained in last nights article, the
water will be desilted at Imperial dam,
this condition, combined with the abili-,
ty to regulate and control the flow OF
water, assuring an abundance of clear
water for the valley at all times.
EliminAtien of the drought and flood
menace, like the elimination of silt, is an
mportant-benefit which the valley will
derive from construction of the Allan
erican canal and is just one of the many
arguments in its favor which has won
support for the propect from the people
of Imperial Valley.

PROPERTY QUALIFICATION

| n W. AL VI Tic p1OQ6Ily
"A tion bill by Governor Rolph means
that in the future only those owning
property within the confines of the dis
trict, will be permitted to vote in dis
trict elections
An effort will doubtless be made to
have the law declared unconstitutional,
but whether or not this can be done re-
mains to be seen.
The valley Just now is waging a bat
tie in an effort to get federal loans for
farmers here. These have been refused,
and among reasons given for the refus-
al is that the Imperial Irrigation District
has defaulted on its bonds.
At present the district has bonded
Indebtedness of approximately S14,000,-
600. The man who does not own prop
erty is not concerned with paying off
this Indebtedness, nor does he care
whether or not the farmers here get
loans from the federal government.
Under the old regime, permitting all
to vote in district elections, the non
property owned helped pile up the bond
ed Indebtedness, but left the taxpayer to
pay it. Incidentally, the non-property
owner, by piling up the bonded indebt-
edness helped toward the default of the
district bonds and the resultant condi-
ton which makes it impossible for the
farmer to get federal loans.
These things being true, it is difficult
to understand why any taxpayer should
wish to make it possible for the non
property owner to pile up Indebtedness
which the property owner must pay.
Opponents of the property qualifica-
tion measure condemned it because they
contend that it deprives citizens of the
right of franchise. Yet many who will
actually lose their vote under the prop
erty qualification measure, approve it.
They realize it is the only fair deal for
the taxpayer. They also feel that their
interests are better protected by having
district affairs passed upon by those who
are financially interested in them than
by permitting them to be voted upon by
those who have no such interest Where
one member of taxpaying family may
be deprived of vote under the property
qualification measure, his interests are
safeguarded by the vote of some other
member of the family in whose name title
to the property rests.
The inconsistency of those who talk
about depriving the citizen of his right
to vote is glaringly exhibited in the
Adams recall case, where they are u.s.
ing every technicality to prevent the cit
liens of the Brawley division from ex-
ercising the right of franchise against
man whom the citizens of the division
never voted into the office he holds.
