This would be good strategy in

SALT LAKE CITY, u,

dangers of a 300-foot pre-

early today brought 2l-year-old
Lloyd Rawson off a narrow ledge
where he had lain for Is hours

Suffering from exposure and

county hospital where, despite the
dayand- ordeal. he related
the story of a narrowing experience
which began with an escape from
death in a straight fall Of 300 feet
With another companion, Rawson
set out on a hunting trip in the
rough Wasatch country five miles
from his home. A boulder dislodg-

the two youths, striking Rawson.
He hurtled over the edge of the
cliff, headed for the rough, craggy

snagged on a ledge. He landed on
his leg and suffered but few in

In order to get to Rawson and
get his body out. at least four or
five men had to descend straight
down, more than 900 feet, along a
glass-smooth rock surface.
A party of five men, including
friends of the youth, volunteered
Equipping themselves with rope
they started the perilous descent

1t was almost an hour before
they reached Rawson. Tieing the
rope around his waist. the group
lifted RawSon's body off the ledge
and pushed it up as far as they
could reach

cuers pulled from above, Rawson
finally reached the top of the ledge.
Other ropes pulled the five friends
back to safety.

at intervals since the completion
date while final tests of equipment
were under way, according TO Phil
ip w. knights, city engineer.
The new plant is electrically
operated, automatically controlled
and does not require an operator
to stay on the scene. The elabor
ate signal system connecting the
plant with the city water plant
in the southwest corner of El Gen.
tro, keeps attendants there inform
ed of conditions at the sewage
plant a mile away.
The old outfall sewer line which
had been in use for 20 years will
be abandoned by the city and the
man holes taken out to prevent
underground flow, caveins and gas
action. The old line was built
Jointly by Ell Centre and Imperial
after being abandoned by Ell Cen
tro.
Net cost of the Public Works adj
ministration project will be some
what less than the estimated cost
OF $290,909, Knights said. Final
cost will not be determined until
right-o -of-Way condemnation pro-
ceedings are settled by the court.
The capacity of the new plant
is $500 gallons per minute. The
size is designed to provide for
population of 10000 persons. The
estimates of cap>aity were based
on the normal growth of the city
during the last 25 years.
No sewage treatment is provided
by the present plant, Knights
pointed out. Raw sewage is being
dumped into New river at a point
seven miles northwest of Ell Gen.
tro. Within the next 10 or 10
years the state board of health
may demand the addition of sew
age treatment. Demand that the
treatment plant be built depends
upon the quantity of. sewage de-
livered to New River and the
quantity of water flowing in the
river. The sewage now is dispoS-
ed of by dilution with water and
oxidation.
If the supply of water in the
river should decrease or the
amount of sewage increase, the
ratio would be thrown out of bal
ance and partial treatment would
be necessary, said Knights.
The present pumping plant was
built to fit in as a unit of treat
ment plant if necessary and may
be adapted to any type of treat
ment selected, according to
Knights.

MADRID, Oct. 20. (UP)-
The government has receiv-
ed a fleet of American air
planes and a number OF
small few war vessels, reliable
sources said today.
More than Is fast pursuit planes
were purchased indirectly in the
United States and delivered with
the assistance of the friendly gov
ernment" which bought them for
the Madrid government, it was as
serted.
The new warships arrived in
Spanish ports this week.
Premier Francisco Largo Caballe-
ro. in an order which represented
a complete reversal of the military
situation, instructed army chleftalns
to open general offensive on all
Madrid fronts at dawn today.
Heartened by this new equipment.
the government took the offensive
in the air. In government sources
it was asserted that series OF
raids covering a great area of ma
tionalist territory had been conduct
ed with complete success.
Today the nationalist were l4h
miles from the city at the nearest
point, on the Toledo highway to
the south. Their main line ran
roughly southeastward from Naval
carnero via El Alamo, Batres, Sera-
nillos, Grinon and Cubas to Tore
gon de la Calzada on the Toledo
road.
They pounded hard all day yes
terday with their artillery and air
planes on the Village of Homanes,
on a side road running up toward
the Getafe airdrome just out OF
Madrid. But this was rather to
prevent a possible encircling move
ment by the loyalists than to ad-
vance, it was indicated when a
United Press correspondent visited
the loyalist front lines.
