I Commissioner Elwood Mead of the United States department of the interior, bureau of reclamation, at Washington, D. C. According to Mead, there is no : definite information at the present ■ t ime to show what lands will be irrigated below Boulder dam, existing maps only showing in a general way the lands susceptible of irrigai tion. j Prospective investors arc reminded | also, that all public lands suscepti- : ble of irrigation are now’ withdrawn i from entry and will not be open to i settlement until the dam is built

and water for irrigation is available. “A* the dam will take about seven years to build after construction starts, and present indications are that it will be a year or more before work is started, you can readily see that it will be a number of years before any lands are available to settlers," Mead pointed out. The Boulder Canyon project act does not become effective until the Colorado river compact has been ratified by the seven basis states or by six states, including California. Then contracts must be entered into insuring revenues adequate to reimburse the government for the cost of construction with interest. Congress can not make any appropriation for the dam until these conditions are met, Mead said, as further indication of the uncertainty of the project.
