TWO STATES AND CITY INVOLVED IN DISPUTE

(By Assoc la tU Press) WASHINGTON. April 28. Two states and a city are involved in a waterpower controversy before the federal power commission it was learned today. The question involved is the establishment of a dam and power plant on the Colorado river at the head of the Imperial Valley. The states of Nevada and Arizona, and the municipality of Los Angeles, have made applications for the power to be derived Jronvtbe project it is said. Under present rules, municipalities are said usually to be given the preference in the matter of power development requests and for this reason Los Angeles would appear to have

the advantage, but there have beenj indications that the two states may !

ask for an amendment of the rules. The commission has not taken the matter under advisement yet. .The proposed power dam will serve a two fold purpose it has been

claimed, for in addition to developing a large amount of power it will serve to safeguard the fruitful Imperial Valley against the danger of floods.
