A. 0. WOOD DESCRIBES
VISIT TO HOOVER DAM
Mighty River Will Have to
Flow Severn Years to
Fill Rueervoir.
An Interesting description of a
trip to Hoover dam Is given by A.
B. Wood of Han Diego in a letter to
The HenttneL alUiough he expresses
regret that he hasn't the ability to
fully describe wliat he «aw. He take«
no cognizance of the eltang« In
name by the democrats. Mr. Wood's
latter Is In part as follows;
"Regions of comfort and regions
of privation, valleys and dsasrte
where the summer heat would be
Intense and yet * • could look up
at the mountains aud »ee «now
I every day.
"The contrasts are more varied
and greater than can generally ba
found in so limited an area. A
most remarkable feature Is that ws
: were able tu explore all of those

‘ period of five days w ithout fatigue
lor hardship. Uur roads wore hlgh-
: way» mostly of easy grades and
well surfaced. N o d ifficult or dan­
gerous section«.
"We commented on tho absence

sence of natural forest trees. Wbars

"We traveled a distance of W66
miles In a round trip. In that d is­
tance w o passed from modern city,
through beautiful orchards of Klv-
i erslde and Han Bernardino, gardens
and homes, flourishing
alfalfa
field«, through mountains and over
deserts, ancient lake bads now dry
and river beds without water.
"We visited Hoover dam, to be the
highest dam yet constructed, that
will make a reservoir so great that
It will require six or seven years'
flow of the Colorado river to fill IL

ing. In a barren, arid, rocky region
a city haa been built, and all mod­
ern conveniences Installed. A t tbs

ment, Lhu most modern electrical
and mechanical devloes era In use.
"We visited the -Ghost City' of
Rhyolite, at one time an active
western mining camp of som e 20,-
000 persona at Its peak, but now
empty except for an occasional
tourist or prospector. A fine rail­
road depot, to whloh no railroad
now runs, would be an ornament la
any city of 10,000 population. Other
building* of Iron and concrete, now
hollow sheila, tell of prosperity and
hope and of forgotten builders.
"We dropped down into Death
valley, the scene of tragedy to men
and women who sought to cross It
In their rush to th s California gold
fields We traversed som e 25 miles
of Its bed and spent a night at
Furnace creek, where we found a
comfortable auto camp supplied
with all conveniences.
"The next morning we stood on
IMnte'e View Point' from which
one can look down to the lowest
point of exposed earth In the con­
tinental United State« and at the
same moment look up to see the
highest point in the United States,
top of Mount Whitney.
"It Is a wonderful trip to take,
through Edenlc gardens and un-
rodeetnable wastes, through re­
gions of modern and populous cities
and regions of unoccupied desola­
tion. The dam Is one of th s great­
est of modern construction feats,
end elsewhere one sees evidence of
large enterprise whose only con­
nection Is with now alm ost forgot­

"Extremes are evident al) the
way, the greatest and ths least, the
highest end the lo w est the new
and the old, naturo in the raw and
nature as remodeled by nuxn."
