CITY SWIMMING POOLS WILL BE OPENEDEARLY Park Board Cooperates With Safety Council to Prevent Drownings. Opening of swimming pools as early as the season and park finances permit was authorized today by the board of park commissioners. The board pledged cooperation with the Indianapolis Safety Council, which is seeking to prevent early drownings in unauthorized pools and streams. Superintendent Walter Jarvis and Recreation Director Jesse McClure were ordered to work with the council in opening a few pools earlier than usual to insure supervised swimming during a warm spell in May. Regular opening date for the pools and beaches is about June 15. Donates Playground Tract Mrs. Sarah M. Lentz, widow of Christian Lentz, donated' a threeacre tract of land between Belmont Ave., Lynn St., St. Clair and Michigan Sts., for park and playground purposes. Engineer J. E. Perry said the board would develop the tract as . soon as possible. Funds probably will prevent carrying out the program this season. Commissioner Michael E. Foley moved the board draft a resolution of thanks to Mrs. Lentz. Henry Myers, artist, asked the

board to take steps to erect a statute to Abraham Lincoln in the southeast corner of University park as provided in a SIO,OOO bequest of Henry C. Long, former lumber dealer. The money has been held in trust for about twenty years. The will stipulates the monument to Lincoln must be in the southeast corner of the park. Memorial Not Approved Attorney Edward B. Rp,ub, Jr., was ordered to investigate the report that the Legislature authorized the memorial twelve years ago. The Indiana World War Memorial Plaza board nas failed to approve the project. Superintendent Walter Jarvis said several eminent landscape artists believed the memorial would not harmonize with the park landscape. Seven park employes were named on recommendation of Jarvis.

DAM DISASTER HERALDS GREAT WATERJAMINE Los Angeles Faces Shortage Next Spring Due to Reservoir Break. BY MAX STERN LOS ANGELES, April 13.—A serious water shortage faces Los Angeles early next spring as the result of the recent St. Francis dam disaster. The situation has aroused business interests in the city to a united and determined drive to force through Congress the Boulder Dam legislation, now realized by everyone here to be the only solution of the Southwest's pressing water problems. The dam break of last month,

costing upward of 500 lives and many millions in property loss, has brought to light two important facts. One is that the present* storage will be inadequate to care for the city’s growing needs. The other is that what new dams are built must be built outside the populous centers, for in the future, no matter how secure they may be, dams will not be permitted in regions where lives and homes are

endangered by even the possibility cf a break. The logic these facts deduce points to the Colorado River, where there is ample water for domestic needs for the entire metropolitan region of southern California; where an ideal site for a secure dam has been passed upon by the nation’s best engineers; where no cities are menaced by the remote possibility of a dam failure.

break Los Angeles had 155,000 acre feet of water in storage, more than at any time in history. When the dam went out 38,000 acre feet were lost. Hollywood business men then insisted that the Mulholland dam, above Hollywood, be drained. The intake was shut off from this dam, and its small reserve is being used up. There are now only 100,000 acre

feet left for the summer months’ use. The snow crop this year is 25 per cent below normal, and unless heavy snows and rain occur early next winter the spring will see a shortage of serious proportions. There really are only two alternatives for Los Angeles’ future water needs. One is more storage in the Owens valley. The other is the Swig-Johnson bill. The former has been questioned

as offering an uncertain and inadequate supply, even with large expenditures. The latter, it is agreed, will not only protect the Imperial valley from floods, satisfy power needs of California, Arizona and Nevada and aid in great irrigation projects. It also will settle for all time the domestic needs of Los Angeles and the other cities of the Southwest.
