Show MAY LOSE ITS SHARE Friction Amont: Irrigators Must Cost Utah Its Part of Water Fund. Unless Utah's irrigators decide upon a plan by which the State can make use of some of the Government irrigation fund in the near future, the chances of that State's being benefited by the fund will go a glimmering. State Engineer Doremus, chairman of the committee appointed during the recent re-cent session of the Legislature, declares that the committee has done all in its power until the return of Senators Kearns and Smoot. They will probably be able to suggest a line of work to be followed that will bring the 'opponents of the project into line. Mr. Newell will probably not come to Utah until the local Irrigators settle their differences, as he does not desire being drawn into a local flght. The opposition op-position force is rather small, Mr. Doremus says, but because of that friction fric-tion the State may lose all of the appropriation appro-priation planned to be expended here.' |
