Great Colorado River dam plans spark irrigation and power boom
Western engineers outline two grand schemes to tame the Colorado River in the Grand Canyon region. A Glen Canon dam near the Utah Arizona line would flood a reservoir hundreds of miles long, delivering 2.5 million horsepower. A Boulder Canyon scheme in Nevada Arizona aims for an 820 foot dam with a canal system, supported by seven states and an $80 million price tag. Fortunes hinge on foundation stability amid shifting bedrock and granite, warned experts.

He urged that Americans must be real in enforcing laws and condemned those who claim to support prohibition only if it bans liquor. He cited liquor as a major source of crime, noting over 90 percent of crime relates to liquor.
