dea'Wor to bring together all inter
exrU with a flew of formulating a
definite plan and policy : under
wfcJeh the project may be placed
on a soond footing.'
Tbe Grants Pass Irrigation dia
trict is not In default but the
commission is of the opinion that
niacin danger of default on Jan
uary 1 of next year. To retire the
Indebtedness as it 'becomes due
will require the leyy of prohibitive
taxes, and to keep the present set
tler on the project and to ObUtia
others necessary to complete the
colonization program, it is Im-
peratiye that the annual assess
ments be kept within the ability
of the landowners to pay.
The commission pointed out
that prompt action would be to
the best Interests of all creditors,
. and that with their cooperation,
they can be protected against ser
ious" loss. ; v " v : ,
The Grants Pass district has a
total indebtedness f J1.940.SS0
. It contains 12.C00 acres of irriga
bis land, of which 1500 is cleared
and" prepared to receire water. It
suffered serious loss last winter
from extreme floods and It -
estimated that S2SO.00O would be
required to put the' Irrigation in
operating condition. '
An aggressive and .effective col
onization campaign has been car
ried on until the number of land
owners was - Increased from 603
in the year 1923 to HOC in, the
year 192C. There was no increase
this' year.'- , ,
The commission's - acuon was
based m i request of; the board
, of directors of the district and its
