Land Needs Drainase
About 1,000,000 acres of ral-1
ley land needs drainage first and
then at least 700,000 acres of
this land may be reclaimed for
irrigation.';. The project backers
feel that with drainage and irri
gation together, farm sites" will
be available for at least 25.000
more families, who with 40-acre
farms, . even though only. 50 to
0 per eent of the 40 acres is
irrigated, will succeed as well as !
today's farmers who work 160
acres of non-irrigated lands.
Irrigation would afford a suf
ficient and dependable volume of 1
crops : annually and reduce the
worry wrinkles for a lot of farm
ers, when drouth comes along at
vital crop growing periods. And
another factor, of course,' is that
farmers can produce better crops
and those crops which best lend
themselves to market.
The state planning board esti
mates that by 1950, oh basis of
the' increase from 1920 to 1930,
the valley population will be
swelled to 850,000 ;ersoi ;.

Selection of Donovan Is
Que rFght Will Be
Rowdy Affair
By EDDIE BRIETZ
PjOMPTON LAKES, N.J., June
20-(AVOne of those good old gas-
house district brawls is shaping up
for the ga'lery when Joe Louis
and Tony Galento collide in the
Yankee stadium a week from to
morrow night.
There may not be much of it,
but it will be good while it lasts.
The Galento camp has an
nounced it will ask that Arthur
Donovan, No. 1 New York referee,
be named to officiate, and today
the suggestion was approved, con
firmed and heartily countersigned
by the brown bombing champion
himself.
This could mean but one thing
that Galento, who Just loves to
rough things up, and Louis, who
can when he has to, are antici
pating nothing less than a knock
down, drag-out affair in their 15-
round bout for the heavyweight
title.
When Galento fought Arturo
Bodoy some time back, all sorts
of tactics not endorsed by the
books gouging, elbowing and
butting were brought into ue.
Donovan took the attitude that if
the boys didn't mind, neither did
he.
Joe Jacobs referred to this fight
in letting it be known he would
ask for Donovan in next week's
bout.
Louis, who does most of bis
talking with his fists, opened up
long enough today to say; "Dono
van suits me fine. If Galento wants
to rough It, we'll rough it. Don't
forget I was once an ioe man, too."

plete with a fresh coat of paint,
