During the summer months there has been an accumulation of trash," he said. "Further, there are around our church properties breeding and hibernating places of insects which should be cleaned up before cold weather sets in. "The program should be taken further than Just the clearance of rubbish and waste. Old and dilapidated dilapi-dated buildings should be destroyed. If there are persons who cannot afford to remove unsightly build ings from their own property, a volunteer labor group should be organized to undertake the task. "It is suggested that all store rooms and furnace rooms be examined exam-ined for fire hazards and that the clean-up be utilized to repair any plumbing or heating apparatus which is broken."

Companies Start 82,500,000 Project To Link Power Systems To Form Five-State Power Pool Fall Cemetery Clean-up To Be Observed Here Heat and Drouth Reduce Lake Level The excessive heat and drouth of the past summer has reduced the level of Utah lake and other Utah reservoirs on September 1 to about half that of last year, according to a report completed in the State Engineer's En-gineer's office. On September 1 the water in Utah lake measured 9.26 acre feet below compromise, which was very much lower than at the same time last year, according to the record taken by Mr. Fred Shelton at the Jordan river pumping station. Mr. Shelton stated that this is about the same as it was In 1936. The twelve largest reservoirs contained con-tained a total of 580,673 acre feet of water on the first of this month, compared with 1,082,076 on the same date last year. The picture is not as bad ns it might appear on the surface, however, how-ever, because last year the storage as of September 1 was the highest for that time of year in the history his-tory of the state. State Engineer Humpherys said that although this year's storage is rated "among the minimum years" there will be adequate storage water next summer if there is a normal amount of precipitation during the next seven or eight months. The contents of the various reservoirs reser-voirs in acre feet on September 1, with corresponding figures of last year In parentheses, were as fol lows: Bear lake, 400.000 (690,000) ; Utah lake, 104,000 (210,000); Strawberry, 17,000 (71,300); Sevier bridge, 24,000 (39,760); Piute, 2015 (10,180); Echo 7160 (11,700); Otter creek, 5500 (5500); Pine View. 8960 (21,270); Schofleld, 2000 (1800); East Canyon, Can-yon, 7000 (15,820);..

Regular classwork commenced on Construction of a modern high tension transmission line to interconnect inter-connect the Utah-Idaho power system sys-tem with those of Montana, Oregon and Washington to form a giant In-termountaln-Northwest power grid will begin this week, it was announced an-nounced today by George M. Oads-by, Oads-by, president, Utah Power Si Light Company. The three company project, estimated esti-mated to cost about $2,500,000, will link 280 existing privately- owned steam and water power generating stations in five states, creating a power pool of 3,000,000 horsepower. This huge reservoir of power flowing flow-ing back and forth over 16,000 miles of transmission lines was described as adequate to meet all the present requirements of national defense together to-gether with the anticipated Industrial, Indus-trial, commercial and domestic needs of the vast inland empire. Announcement of construction plans was made by Mr. Gadsby following fol-lowing approval of a contract with the Utah Construction Company of Ogden for building the Idaho segment seg-ment of the project. The three power companies in Montana, Idaho and Utah are engaged Jointly in tha program. The proposed transmission line with Its shiny copper cables operating operat-ing at 161,000 volts will stretch 277 miles from Anaconda, Mont., where it taps the already developed power pool of Washington, Oregon and Montana companies, to Grace, Idaho, Ida-ho, where it Joins the Utah-Idaho system pool. In conformity with the electric utlitles' intensified national defense- efforts to have ample power ready, Mr. Gadsby said the date for com pletion of the project has been set for January 1, 1941. The project was seen by the utility utili-ty head as a boon to employment during the early winter months and to the copper mining Industry of the intermountaln states. He asserted between 400 and 500 men will be employed from now and the first of the year to hasten construction con-struction and so far as possible this labor will be obtained locally in Utah, Idaho and Montana, Approximately three million pounds of copper from Montana and Utah mines will be utilized In the construction thereby extending employment em-ployment to workers in the copper mining Industry. Mr. Gadsby explained the purpose of the new line Is not to replace power resources in Utah and Idaho, but to strengthen the entire Inter-mountain Inter-mountain Northwest grid system. He said the multiplicity of plants linked with a network of modern high voltage transmission lines makes the system much more secure against sabotage or even enemy attack at-tack and stabilized the flow of power for Industrial mobilization to any point in the extensive area. "The privately operated power companies of Oregon, Washington and Montana already are thoroughly thorough-ly interconnected in a strong integrated inte-grated system of large capacity with many plants at widely scattered points feeding into the pool," Mr. Gadsby outlined. "This plan of interconnecting in-terconnecting the Utah-Idaho systems sys-tems with those of the Northwest adds the plants now operated by the Idaho and Utah power companies. com-panies. This will stabilize the power output of existing plants without restricting the potential market for future use of new generating plants in the Utah-Idaho area, particularly Tuesday evening of this week in those which will need to be develop-the develop-the Fifth ward and will commence ed In connection with water con- in all of the other wards next Tuesday evening.
