WELLIVER JHE Orand Canyon of the Colo­ rado River, widely regarded as the world's most Imposing natural wonder, has suddenly taken on a new and startling Interest A few years ago. when It was as inaccessible as the North Pole, John Wesley Powell won fame by making the first trip through It A little later another adventurer conceived opening a trail from the canyon's rim down to the river, a mile below It seemed grotesque, but the Impossible was ac­ complished, and Its accomplishment has made the canyon's Innermost won­ ders accessible to thousands of tour­ ists each year. They come from all quarters of the world every season In greater, numbers to traverse the Bright Angel Trail. That trail Is truly a monument to the daring’ and devotion of Its builder He worked at It for ten years, almost without help or flrunclal backing, at one period spending almost half a year alone In the vast gorge. But today Ralph Cameron, builder of the Bright Angel Trail, occupying a seat In the United States Senate voted to him by the people Of Arizona, has his reward. Greatest Artificial Lake But the conquest of the canyon had hardly beer, realized when the engi- neers discovered a new use for It At Boulder Canyon, Arizona, the greatest dam In the world a third of a mile high, should Impound a lake which. ■preadlng over a great area In Arizona and Utah, would be, n 'Zt to Lake Michigan. th> largest fresh water t> dy entirely with n the United States Harnessed to mlchty turbines, the wa- ter, fall!ror hundreds of feet, would produce a power greater than Niagara, and Irrigate an area several times that o f the Nile Basin, which served for uncounted centuries as granary of tb* ancient world The Boulder Canyon dam has not yet been built, but the people of the Southwest are as confident of its con atructlon as that the Colorado will continue to flow between its giant walls Now comes a new chapter In the romance of the Colorado The In trepld ’"wildcatters" of the oil Indus­ try, scouting for n w sources of petro­ leum, have brought In an oil well right In the canyon!
