Salt Lake City. With the exception f Echo reaerrolr and the Weber-Pro-o canal no federal reclamation work n may be expected In the Salt Lake during the next three yeara, to a letter from Dr. Elwood Mead, commlaaloner of reclamation, to Senator Reed Smoot at the meeting of the Utah water atorage commission. The letter was submitted by George M. Bacon, state engineer and secretary of the commission. The letter from Dr. Mead was written to Senator Smoot In answer to certain Inquiries made of the senator by James T. Gardner, chairman of the Utah county commissioners regarding prevailing reclamation problems. Dr. Meads letter follows: "I have read the letter addressed to you by James T. Gardies add others. The following explanation will, I trust enable you to give them a reply that will make clear what the reclamation bureau contemplates doing In Utah during the next three or four years. "When In Utah in June, 1924, I explained that the reclamation bureau could not undertake at onoe all of the development required of it In Utah. That In order to Inaugurate anything we must have one unit of reasonable size, about which we know enough to enable us to make a convincing statement to the bureau of the budget I left It to the people of Utah to select the unit and they selected Echo resercanal and the Imvoir, a cross-cu- t provement of Provo bay, In the order named. "We have had definite data regarding Echo reservoir and the crosscut canal, with satisfactory estimates, and this was approved by the budget We had no estimates of the cost of devel-opmeat Provo bay, and this was thrown out by the budget, but kept In the appropriation through Its Insertion In the senate by yourself. The arrangements for financing the Echo reservoir were left In the hands of a local committee, which has practically completed Its labor, and we have written a letter approving the program submitted, but for the matters dealt with in the letter from Mr. Gardner, there is no prospect of doing anything for the next three years, and this sbonld be understood. "We consider It especially important that the Investigation on the Utah county projects be continued Immediately end an official finding reached as to their feasibility. If these projects are entirely abandoned for three years the farmers who are called upon to pay the existing Indebtedness will feel very loth to take any favorable action, and will refuse to make payment, which will result In confusion, trouble and discredit for all concerned. "Utah lake Is at present very low and the Investigation can be better made now than at some future time from a physical standpoint "The control of Utah lake Is a part of the Salt Lake basin unit and must be carried forward with the other branches of the unit; the owners of land around Utah lake will undoubtedly take all possible action to prevent additional water being turned upon them from the "Weber river If some provision Is not made for the control of the lake. ba-ai- nt Air Express To Create Record Salt Lake City.
