"Proclaim - Liberty through all the Iamd" Selfish Interests Jeopardize Project While the most severe drouth in the memory of living man' grips this state, a project whose realization would solve the problem of recurring; dry periods such as this one, is being argued pro and, causing a delay which may spell disaster. Federal reclamation bureau officials, impatient over the protracted delay, have threatened to withdraw allocations allo-cations of over two million dollars already made, not to mention men-tion the ten-million dollar appropriation for the whole project. pro-ject. . The Deer creek project is the only practical solution to the future water problems of Salt Lake City, Provo arid the two counties of Salt Lake and Utah, generally. Surveys have shown conclusively that other possible sources for bringing water into this territory are too remote involving an insurmountable construction cost. While this is a known fact, stubborn insistence on selfish sel-fish viewpoints is threatening to whipsaw the entire ten-million ten-million dollar project. The time has arrived when the best leadership in the state should call in the interested parties, compose their differences, dif-ferences, and secure the quickest possible action on the project for the future welfare of the state. Failure to take advantage of the funds within our reach will condemn the present generation in this state in years to come. -( OR EM MRS. MERRILL.
