TAKE ACTION IN BRAIN PROJECT Ohio Officials Promise Cooperation In Ohio-Indiana Drainage Project Portland. Oct. 31—'Attorneys Tod A'hipple and George T. Whitaker made 1 trip to Celina. Ohio, to take up with Ohio authorities the proposed drainage project, which is planned to start near Wabash Ohio, and run to the Jimtown bridge in Adams county, a distance ,>f about fifteen miles. The Portland attorneys were assured of the cooperation of the Ohio authorities. Judge Alonzo L. Bales of the Randolph circuit court, will appoint three drainage commissioners for .liana, while the Mercer county board ;f commissioners will act under the Ohio law. A meeting of the commissioners from the two states will be held in the near future. It is estimat?d that the drain will cost approximately s3oo,(Hhf. Petition Rep. A. H. Vestal A petition is beins prepared by Jay and Adams county residents, which will be sent to Representative Albert H. Vestal, praying that he ask the United States government to consider the cleaning out and straightening ol the Wabash river. This matter will be taken up is connection with the Mississippi flood control problem at the next session of congress. It is desired that at least sl,000,000 be appropriated for use in Indiana. in caring for the Wabash river. Up until a few years ago the Wabash *as navigable for as tar as Layfayette xml is yet considered a navigable stream un'der government regulations xithough it is not now used for any thing except row beats and small motor boats, owing to the filling of the channel by sandbars and other obstructions. It is felt that the government should clean out and straighten the the Wabash liver through this state which would be of ineslimated benefit to resi: dents along the stream. May Establish Reservoirs it is said that a part of program if the Mississippi flood relief proposed by government engineers, is the building of huge reservoirs in the upper leaches of tributary streams to he Mississippi. These reservoirs would not only aid in holding back flood watteis, but would hold the water level 41 navigable riveis during the periods •vhen the lainfall is slight. Should this plan be adopted, the lo■ation of one of these reservoirs would very likely be in this part of the state on the upper reaches of the Wabash iver. It is said that Congressman Ves,al will be asked to have the section in lay county known as the ’Lob” considered by the government experts. At one time the Lob was a ?reat lake, but has been drained by jig ditches, and is now being used as grazing and farm land. Nature has de dgned this place for a lake, and a aige storage reservoir could be con strutted at small cost, compared to j ihe problem of building one in a place ' not so well adapted. 1 There has been some agitation the past two years that a lake be constructed in the Lob district, to be named after Jean Stratton Porter, the noted Indiana author, who once lived at Geneva, adjacent to the Lob. It is un- ( lerstuod that admirers of the novelist . have urged the state department of ■ conservation to create a slate park in the Lob district, and it might be that the fedeial and state authorities might cooperate and create a place that will aid in flood relief as well as being a beautiful state park.
