BY resisting this heat, the amaz-

blisters from forming. And when
you prevent the blister, you prevent

Phoenicians, Romans, Carthaginians,
Vandals, Moors and Dutch fought for

find . place over which more war has
been fought. England and France
have already both poured forth fire
and blood for them, and 1t appears
that italy may repeat the action of her

No nation with any Mediterranean

of another world war. A weakened
Spain would be in no position to hold
them. A desperate scramble for their

low the outbreak of another war. It

taries and, in some instances, in the
streams themselves, many believing a
series OF such dams would store q
suficient amount Of water to alleviate
damage until the crest has been
passed, at which time the water could
be gradually released from the con-
tanners; construction Of levees at the
points Of greatest destruction; re-
moval Of bridge and railroad I'LL OBJ
structions by different type Of con-
struction; dredging in channels which
have become clogged with debris and
rocks, and soil conservation.
Engineers conducting the prelim-
mary survey have refrained in general
from expressing themselves regarding
the suggestions made. BY inference,
however. they have expressed consid-
cradle skepticism on the actual value
Of proposed dams. Proponents have
been questioned carefully as to where
such projects could be built and
whether in many instances they would
cover sufficient farm lands to coun-
teract any benefits to be generally
derived.
Soil Measures Cited.
1t has been definitely stated that
soil conservation cannot be taken into
consideration as an immediate cid in
controlling floods. Soil conservation
experts have stated it will take 10 to
IL years to educate farmers with
sloping fields that strip farming and

benefit as well as all other jewellers
in the basin. While reforestation is
an acknowledged remedy, that. too.
must be passed as an immediate aid
in controlling excess water.
City and town officials, farmers,
orchardists, manufacturers and coal
mine operators who have appeared
before the engineers have all been
advocates of flood control. They,
naturally. wish protection, but few
have been able to suggest definite
remedies. Many have advocated con-
struction of one or another of the
type of projects heretofore mentioned
as good general policy.
Great difficulty has been encoun-
tered in obtaining accurate and full
accounts of food losses, and without
these the engineers are unable to
even hazard guess as to whether
construction costs will be lower or
greater than damages done. Most Of
the communities have promised to
gather the desired data and forward
it to the district engineer. The city
Of Cumberland was the only munich.
pality or county to furnish losses In
detail.
Losses already submitted run into
many millions of dollars, but control
projects also will run into many mil.
lions. At this time it Is a toss-up as
to which will be the greater.
Actual prevention costs cannot be
made known without complete sur
vey containing. the number, character,
height and cost of flood control prof.
ectS. The result Of the preliminary
survey will determine whether the
general survey is justified.
Washington is the only large city
directly affected. The city receives
the full rush of flood waters from the
entire upper basin and will watch with
interest attempts to harness the
stream.

TINE ever-mcreasing height Of
Hood waters In the Potomac
River basin may be laid direct
ly to many modern develop
ments. The question now is whether
man can control the result of his mis-
takes. These are problems confront
ing the United States Engineer Office
as it seeks to determine the extent of
damage done In past floods and
whether steps can be taken to safe
guard the farmlandS, industries and
cities extending west from the Capital
into Maryland. Virginia, West Virginia
and Pennsylvania.
During series Of public hearings
conducted under an act of the last
Congress. providing for a survey 20
determine the possibility Of safeguard
ing life and property in the river
basin. Lieut.. w. J. Matteson, acting
district engineer for this area, and
his aids have gathered some interest
ing data. They have not, however. re-
ceived sufficient information to reach
even tentative answer to the problem
OF whether a fiood-control program
will be economically sound.
The act under which the preliminary
survey is being held provides tina.
losses must exceed cost of relief
through the construction of dams,
levees or other projects designed to
control the waters of the Potomac
during flood stage before a control
appropriation is made.
Causes Are Reported.
Causes Of the increasing heights Of
floods were given by sufferers who at
tended the meeting as:
/. Denuding of forest lands with
out consideration to reforestation, and
the washing of lashings from timber
cuttings to the Potomac tributaries.
2. Washing of unguarded farm
lands. which not only causes a rapid
flow Of water from hillside farms, but
also send tons Of silt and rocks into
stream beds.
3. Railroad and highway bridges,
abutments and supports, which gather
debris, backing up the water until it
has reached a sufficient height and
velocity to either tear away these
structures or flow over them. The re-
suit Is q sudden burst of penned-up
fury that sweeps swiftly over every
thing below it.
4. Culverts under an ever-increasing
number Of Federal, State and county
roads. sending surface waters speed
ing toward the stream forming the
natural watershed in which they are
located and causing sudden rise in
stead Of slow, natural drainage.
Narrow Channels Cited.
s.. Industrial and municipal dams,
levees walls and other man-made in
strumentalities which cause streams
to dow in narrow channels, or divert
them from damage at one point to
much more serious harm in another.
6. The gradual but unmistakable
filling of stream beds, causing food

rebls without q shot being fired, for
the Balearics have always remained
strongly royslist.
Among SPANS plans for fortifying
her island possessions was that of
making seaplane base at Puerto
de Pollensa, as If In answer to the
great interest taken in the spot. This,
however, she found impossible to do
because her bombing planes couldn't
safely get OF the water there, due to
the cratic currents Of winds sweep
ing down from the mountains. But
among her other plans she created
military zone miles back from
all the coasts. She started q spy
scare, with wholesale arrests. She
made 1t plain that the influx Of tour
lists to Majorca was not wanted. Why?
Spain, to the CONSERVATION of RIA
jorcans who had invited and invested
heavily in the tourist trade, did not
want attention to be called to the
islands by the world at large because
they were becoming a bone of con-
tention on scale more extensive than
she was sure of handling. Her in
ability to hold Minorca, the northern
island, in the nineteenth century.
against successive occupation by the
French and the British, was remem-
bered.
France has long wanted the islands
or at least their use-even bit
more than Italy wants them. France
could use them very readily to trans
port troops from her African possess
sions. More than that, she would like
to make sure that no one else Is be-
tween her and Africa. France tried
to obtain their use for this double pur-
pose first by negotiating a secret
treaty that did not 60 through be-
cause the cat was let out Of the bag
before the deal could be consummated.
Then she tried outright purchase,
which also failed.
Mussolini, with his dream Of Medi-
terranean empire, would have to have
the Balearics' to realize it. His wish
has now been announced quite frankly
by his establishing that Germany
would not interfere if he could Jockey
himself into q position to occupy the
islands.
England is concerned, and vitality,
though as long as Enthusiastically
neutral nation such Is Spain holds the
islands, she Is content. But with q
Spain in the throes Of q bloody and
strength-sapping civil war, whatever
the outcome, England Is anything but
content. For with air and underwater
warfare, In her mighty Gibraltar Eng
land knows extremely well that her
famous rock no longer necessarily con-
trolls the Western Mediterranean.
A naval base on the Balearics, with
In easy reach Of Gibraltar and the
Straits, would be more valuable thing
to any nation that wanted to control
the Western Mediterranean and the
entrance to it from the Atlantic Ocean.
England could III permit any other
nation to seize the Balearics.
The conclusions to be drawn are
deadly plain. The Balearic Islands
have again assumed the geographic
Importance they once had IN the early
days Of civilization, IN the times the
