trepid pioneers started through this
route.
In 1849 DR. 0. NJ Wozencraft OBJ
served the abundant crops raised by
the Indians in the northwestern part
Of the desert. He also discovered
that the desert could be watered by
gravity flow from the Colorado
river, and he Immediately began to

known as the Butterfield Stages,

passengers between st. Louis and
San Francisco. This was the long
est stage route in the history Of
the world, and the distance was di-
vided into"horse runs" The route
crossed the Valley by way of In

the cOlorful past.
Plan TO Divert Colorado River
Lieutenant Eric Bergland was de
tailed III 1876 to investigate flood
conditions on the lower Colorado
and to determine the feasibility of
diverting the Colorado River for
irrigation purposes in the vicinity
OF Needles. He also sought a route
Tor canal from the river to the
Colorado Desert on American soil
When a railroad was completed in
1879 by the Southern Pacific Rail-
road, the government ceased all at
temptS to further navigate on the
river
With the coming Of the railroad,
the cessation Of stage and team
travel across the desert resulted.
The country was abandoned except
for cattlemen who occasionally
drove their herds into the valley
when the Colorado oyerfioWed and
the grass would grow enough to
warrant feeding the livestock
Plan First Canal
Obessed with the idea Of reclaim
ing the desert into farmlands.
Charles Robinson RockWCOd heroi-
cally struggled from 1892 to 1900
to obtain funds to build a canal to
bring water from the Colorado
River. George Chaffey finally Join
cd Mr.. lockwood and through his
influence assisted MI. lockwood III
his plan TO build the first canal,
which delivered water 10 the valley
near CaleXicO in 1901. III that same
year settlers came to the valley,
and the towns Of CalcXico Imperial,
Brawley, Holtville, FL Centre, Cali
patria, Westmorland SGeley and
inland were started.
A tremendous, fantastic plan TO
get settlers for the land before the
was conceived since Mr. Chaffey
agreed to finance the irrigation syS-
tenn only if he had assurance that
the $4,000 acres of the desert would
be taken by bona fide settlers.

Latin American Gin Exporters
!rked as ] TESTING Curbs Flow

Importers whose product is re-
jected have three alternatives:
/. To reprocess 1t into neutral
spirits. Such spirits are now being
used in the blending OF domestic
WHISTLES.
2. To add juniper essence and sell
It as, compound gin," as distinct
from distilled gin. According to ex-
perts, this is like adding the baking
powder after the biscuits are done.
. 3. To sell It in It's present condi-
ton as "colored distilled spirits"
This testing policy of internal
revenue, inaugurated in the last
few days, has suddenly tied up a
profitable war-boom business and
thrown importers into confusion.
Cuban gin in 50-gallon barrels and
Mexican gin in five-gallon cans is
laying ON the docks and in ware
houses in New York, Fort Lauder
dale, New Orleans and Laredo.
Imports of gin have reached the
figure of 100000 gallons a month,
which In a. years time would mean
about 10000, 900 gallons. This is al
most as much as the total United

Experts of the Bureau Of Internal
!. Revenue are engaged in the novel
task Of smelling and tasting sam
Piles Of gin freshly imported from
Cuba and Mexico to determine
whether 1t may properly be labeled
and marketed as gin in the United
States.
Many of the samples are being
rejected. Meantime, all shipments,
good and bad. are held up at ports
of arrival. Importers are crying
out in alarm, the Cuban Embassy is
distressed, and the heavy movement
of gin, stimulated by the liquor
shortage in the United States, is
backing up on the distillers in Cuba
and Mexico.
Treasury Department officials dis
closed yesterday that the testing
tasting job is being done by the lab
oratories of the Alcohol Tax Unit, on
the top floor OF the Internal Reve-
nue. Building. The work is under
direction of DR.. w. v. Linder, chief
chemist.
Juniper Is Test.
The samples fail or pass the test
according to whether they have the
taste and smell OF juniper berries.
This Is the prime criterion. If the
experts can detect no evidence OF
juniper, the gin is rejected.
Much of the Cuban and Mexican
gin is being made so rapidly, from
distilleries which have mushroomed
alongside the Cuban sugar mills,
that there is no time for favoring
The normal procedure Is to pass
the gin, in process of distillation,
through a basket of juniper berries.
Experts insist there is no substitute
for this process.
A Treasury Department spokes-
man said, MANY samples of
this alleged gin are being turned
down." Stewart Berkshire, deputy
internal revenue commissioner, de-
clared: Some of the gin coming in
now is not recognizable as gin"

States gin production In normal
times, which ranged between IL ,000,-
900 and 1000, 900 gallons.
Importers expressed their alarm
today through Harry L. Lourie, ex-
ecutive vice president of the Ma
tional Association of Alcohol Bev-
erage importers, Inc. Mr.. Lourie
declared: 1.-THE tasting being done
by revenue men is entirely unscien-
tific. There is no real analysis in
volved. The gin is being rejected
merely because some fellow can't
taste or smell enough juniper to
suit him.
But the best gin has a variety of
havors. Some distillers use orange
and coriander more than juniper.
It's ike the peat flavor in Scotch
sometimes mild and sometimes
strong"
Mr.. Lourie pointed out that the
bureaus action has tied up the
goods, tied up credit and brought
complaints from the Office of De-
fense Transportation because of
nonmovement of freight.
He revealed that importers are
cabling Havana and Mexico City to
ship no more gin for the present.

as many Americans of other color
groups" he said. Those Americans
of various colors are scattered
throughout the world wherever our
armed forces are fighting, the col
onel declared, adding that ''it will
mean a great deal to them always
to know that wherever there is an
American Red Cross club or Red
Cross representative, the American
soldier can get truly American serv-
ice."
The students were warned not to
forget the fact that "as Red Cross
workers you have an opportunity
to interpret to the peoples Of va
rious countries throughout the
world the true meaning of democ-
racy as visualized by the founders
of our great country"

last week by Col. Campbell c. john
son, assistant to Gen. Hershey, ma
tional selective service head, dur
ing a commencement address to
graduation class of Red Cross
trainees on the campus of Ameri-
can university.
Making his historic appearance
before the class of Red Cross train
ees as the first Negro to address
that body, Col. Johnson told the
graduation class that many Amer
leans have been deeply gratified by
the manner in which the American
Red Cross, during the present con-
flict, has not set up it's facilities
throughout the world to serve men
in uniform without regard to race,
creed or color" This democratic
procedure, he said, has undoubtedly
been aided by the appointment of
an outstanding Negro, Jesse O.
Thomas, as assistant to the admin
istrator' of general services at ma
tional headquarters here.
'In this way the Red Cross has
had the advantage of experienced
counsel in developing its program
so as to include all racial groups and
in the selection of qualified Negroes
to serve on the home front as we'll
as in overseas areas" Col. Johnson
continued. "It has been gratifying
also to learn of the extent to which
the men and women holding posi-
tions such as those to which you
go, have interpreted the democratic
spirit of the organization"
While pointing out that our mil
itary forces follow the pattern of
our nation in it's diversity of races,
creeds and colors, "over 975,000
Negroes have entered our armed
forces since 1910, as we'll as tenth
