ROSA PROJECT
GOING STRONG

Tunnel excavation through solid
rock is now being pushed on the
Roza Reclamation Project, plans for
which were made as far back as
1902, according to statement from
C. E. Crownover, construction en-
gineer for the project, to James E.
Bradford, state director of the Ma
tional Emergency Council.
The Roza is one of the five div
isions under the Yakima Valley pro-
ject. Included in this group is the
Sunnyside, irrigating 100000 acres;
Kittitas, irrigatlng 77,OO0 acres; Tie
ton, $4,000 acres, and the Roza irri-
eating $4,000 acres. The Mckee di-
vision has been abandoned because
of the necessity of lifting waters to
an excessively high level. Part of the
area to have been included in this
division will be taken care of by
the Roza division.
Water storage for the Yakima
project is pooled in six separate res
ervoirs. These are the Gle Elum,
with capacity of $4,000 acre feet;
Kaches, 10000 acre feet; Rimrock,
$4,000 acre feet held in storage by
the largest existing earth dam in the
world; Lake Keechelus, $4,000 acre
feet; Dumping Lake, $4,000 acre
feet and Clear Lake with capacity
of 5000 acre feet. Construction OF
additional storage facilities will be
unnecessary as the six existing res
ervoirs will supply sufficient water.
At present there are about $4,000
acres of federal lands, and a great
deal more privately owned land UNI
der irrigation, supporting over 10O,-
600 persons. It is estimated that the
Roza project, embracing 72.000 acres
will bring another $4,000 persons in
to the Yakima valley and the State
of Washington. The Roza project
when completed will form an irri-
gated strip from one to four miles
wide, reaching from Selah in Yaki-
ma County to Benton City in Ben
ton County. and approximately sixty
miles In length.
The completed project will include
a diversion dam, q series of tun-
nels, river syphon, a power plant
and about 80 pumping stations. APP
proximately $4,000 acres of land will
be irrigated from gravity canals and
approximately $4,000 acres will be
irrigated by pumping.
Actual construction began Janu-
airy, 1886. At this time there has
been $3,500.O00 allocated to the
work. The total cost Of completing
the project has been placed at fiji
teen million dollars.
At present the major portion Of
the work is being done in tunnel
excavation, the contract for which
has been let to Morrison & Knud-
son, Boise, Idaho. Tunnel miners
and assistants, special types of skill
ed labor, are required for tunnel
digging. During the current month

 The American Red Cross, our many churches, great fraternal or ganizations, service clubs, commer- cal bodies, and superior education al systems were praised by the speaker.
 Social Security Aid
 MT. Worthwine stressed that he was not here to discuss any matter that is or may be in political controversy, when talking about the social Security program, or that the old age and unemployment benefits of that law might not bet ter be carried by private insurance companies, but the speaker said:
 T do say that since the program provides for aid and assistance to underprivileged and crippled chill dren, for the blind, for maternal care, and for the public health, that we are interested in these fea- lures because they will tend to make a better America. But what I most desire to emphasize is the accep- tance of the taxpayers of America of this vast program. You may criticise the method of the ma- chinery, but the spirit of our peo- pie in paying the bill must be commended.
 The speaker said the better parts of the old should be taken and weave into that fabric those things that the people now determine best.
 He pointed out that Alaska was the last frontier, yet in medicine and science were yet other frontiers not limited by territory, and with the new we will progress rightly if we keep the best of what our fla thers have given us.
 In conclusion Vice Commander Worthwine said that at this time Instead of criticizing and tearing down too much the American peo- pie should really stand up and cheer"
