VALLEJO, March 8.—The city of Vallejo is preparing ‘for more trouble with C. Malandriano, who owtis a large tract of land in the Green Valley water- shed adjacent to the reservoir of the municipal water system. ~ For twelve years the city and Malandriano have been having trouble. Recently the eity, through Congressman Knowland, filed an application with the War Department for a transfer to the city of a large parcel of land in the military reservation in Green Valley, which is vital to the city's water supply. The reservation was originally set aside over half a century ago for the purpose of supplying water to the ar- senal at Benicia, but was never used by the military authorities. The city sought to acquire the land, and Malan- driano also sought it. He filed an offer of $3759, hoping to dispose of it later, the City Trustees say, to Vallejo for a much larger sum. The land is practi- cally worthless with the exception of its value as a watershed, and as the city now owns ali the other land in that sec- tion there is a bitter feeling against Malandriano.
