Obviou: ly, the General Electric people aren't much interested in the welfare of thé farmers, who will benefit from the irrigation. But the fact that the gravity pro}. ect would increase the minimum flow of the Spokane river from 1,500 cuble feet per second to 20,000 cubic feet may be of some interest to them ~-in view of the fact that there are several General Electric plants on the Spokane river, which would greatly benefit from the increased water powsyr available.
