Water rights control debated by state engineer officials
The state engineer's power to reject water use applications is questioned as unnecessary for public supervision. Rejections over water supply may misjudge due to variable stream flow and seepage, while public policy grounds invite discrimination. Idaho requires a ten cent per cubic foot per second filing fee and a bond. distribution costs are low and handled within a single division. A Farmers' Union of Alabama convention opens with welcome by Mayor Sullivan and remarks by ex National President Pyle, with sessions to follow over three days.
