H CALL CORONATION FASHION SPLURGE OF 20TH CENTURY Jewels, Silks, Furs All Leaving Their Marks on Styles of World London,-May 11.—(7)—The curtain will be rolled up Wednesday on the fashion splurge of a century. ctf silks sited ers fers, glittering with pearls, @iamante and embroidery, gold and silver lame, velevt, ermine and the gem-studded turbans of maharajahs will be mingled in one scintillating Pageant which already has left its mark on fashions from Maine to Buenos Aires. How lasting this effect will be is another question. London fashion leaders predict it may start the great- est renaissance of elegance of the 20th century with elaborate emibroid- efies, colors of crimson, purple and gold established as evening fashions far the next two seasons. A swift reversion to stark simplicity, however, was expected by some ex- perts as modern fashion is never static but moves with the times. The coronation already has had its effect on fashions and the whole court might reflect events of the next three months rather than that which will soon be past. For the t, however, the cor- onation fe influence is manifest everywhere but it is impossible to envisage in any American setting Water Board to Renew Fight For Missouri Diversion Plan Army Engineers Have Ignored Many Intangible Benefits, Conservators Say Preparations for “adequately pre- senting the economic factors of the Missouri river diversion plan and other hae conservation proposals to army engineers at a hearing to be held Mn orth Dakota, probably, in late June, were made by the state water conser- vation commission at a meeting in Fargo Sunday, it was disclosed here Monday by D. J. Beakey, board sec- Tetary. Reporting on a recent trip to Wash- ington to attend the National Rivers and Harbors congress, Grand Forks, vice chairman of the board; Gerald Olson, Mooreton, board member, and Dr. I. Lavine, consultant for the state planning board, said the Missouri river diversion plan Geclared feasible from the engineering standpoint and its cost lowered to $36,000,000 but that army engineers are attempting to charge all of the benefits of the proposal to a few rela- tively small irrigation projects for which it might provide water. Henry Holt, has been Ignored Other Benefits In their economic analysis, it was revealed, the army engineers placed no'value on such things as adequate water for livestock over a large portion of the state, restoration of property values in many sections, lower fire insurance rates in many cities now unprotected for lack of water and the Facts pertaining to these and other economic phases of the proposal will be accumulated by the board during the next few weeks so that adequate presentation of thetn. may be made , | the proposed hearing in an effort to induce army engineers to change their views. Similar surveys will be made of the proposed Heart Butte dam. project in the Heart river, where an attempt is being made to charge the cost of the dam to 13,000 acres of irrigable land, and on the Bowman irrigation project. As things stand now, the commission was told, the latter project has the best chance of early approval but the ee decided to make a fight for the Missouri river diversion and Heart Butte proposals in the knowl- eage that North Dakota cannot raise the money to finance an adequate water conservation program. To date the commission's efforts have been Girected toward getting individual farmers into irrigation where water is available. / Urges Experiments First At the same time the board was told by George 8. Knapp, Kansas state engineer on leave of absence to act as the board’s technical adviser for the next six months, that he deems Jt in- advisable for individuals to attempt irrigation from the Missouri river. A few experimental projects are advis- able, he said, but great difficulty will be encountered in placing small pro- Jects on a sound basis. The reason, he explained, is that the stream meanders so widely that it is difficult to establish permanent ent intakes, just as has been done with the Bismarck municipal water supply, and thus eliminate the*trouble caused by the Missouri’s variability. Knapp suggested that the commis- sion attempt to prove the economic value of ‘irrigation in the Missouri valley, then concentrate on @ cam- paign to get the bureau of-reclama- tion in the interior department to put, in irrigation projects on the bottom lands. The water must be lifted from 25 to 50 feet, he said, but this is not a bar in view of the effic- iency of pumps and lower power costs. Get Bureay Support Holt and his cohorts reported on ar. interview with the bureau of ree- lamation and said North Dakote can expect substantial support from that department in its work of getting sound water development started here. At a conference with James Roose- velt, son and secretary to the presi- dent, he said, the North Dakota dele- gation pointed out that if-the govern- ment would spend on constructive work half as mach money as it has spent to keep Narth Dakota people alive this state’s problems would be muuch less severe than now is the case. As a matter of policy, the commis- sion decided not to sponsor the con- struction of any dams at this timte be- ceuse of lack of funds but to co-oper- ate with the WPA, the CCC and the individual farmer where the irrigation benefits from the dam are large enough. to justify the board’s invest- ment in materials. Eighteen applications for irrigation projects were approved by the board. 1 haaioal tors] Feller Back Home For Examinations Pitch Sunday But Hopes to Join Tribe Saturday Van Meter, Iowa, 1.
