URGE FLOOD CONTROL There is one thing above all others that this great, virile west should do—should concentrate its energies in doing—that is, in moving state and national governments, with the cooperation of private enterprise, to undertake scientific control of floods in western streams. This control should be for a four-fold purpose. To prevent flood losses; to conserve water supply of water for cities and towns; and to generate electric power on a vast scale. The west should take the lead in controlling its wanton streams. This section appreciates the value of flood control. It is a progressive section. It is accustomed to taking the lead. It feels awkward when it is trailing. It is in its glory when it is in the van of any worth-while movement. The west has wonderful passibilities along all the four lines mentioned—that is, in preventing flood damage, in conserving water for irrigation and for centers of population, and in generating electric power. The rivers that have been and are more or less of a scourge, in flood seasons, could be and should be turned into outright economic blessings to the whole west. Instead of being a liability, as some of these streams are, all of them are capable of being transformed into profitable assets, serving the people usefully in several different ways. Let's move for flood control with true western vigor. Let's start the agitation and keep it going until every stream of the west is put under effectual bond to behave itself at all times and to give beneficial service to the people.
