MWD WORK TO INCREASE SOON Lowering of Temperatures on Aqueduct Speeds Activity; Many to be Employed Preparing for a fall "big push" on the desert flank of the 390-mile construction front of the Metropolitan Water district aqueduct, General Manager F. E. Weymouth announced today that aqueduct contractors are sending in requests for hundreds of additional men to be employed on the building of the Colorado river aqueduct. "Aqueduct construction work will require an army of from 8,000 to 10,000 men this year," Weymouth stated, "all of whom will be employed from the Southern California cities comprising the Metropolitan Water district. This will mean an increase of approximately 2,500 men to be added to those already employed on contract and force account work. "Only men who have been bona fide residents of district cities for a year or more can be employed," he pointed out, "and aqueduct contractors can only hire men whose residence qualifications have been approved by the Metropolitan Water district labor office at 770 S. San Pedro street, Los Angeles." Because of the intense heat in the desert, a part of the construction work on the 242-mile main aqueduct was suspended during the summer months. Lowering temperatures will soon allow for the proper curing of concrete on the desert "open work," and will result in the employment of thousands of additional men. Latest reports forwarded to the offices of the general manager indicate that the construction of the giant water supply system, the largest in the world, is now almost half completed. First work on the project was started in December, 1932. Since that time approximately 25,000 men have been employed in the history making task of building a man-made river across the state of California, from the Colorado river to the cities of Los Angeles, Anaheim, Beverly Hills, Burbank, Compton, Fullerton, Glendale, New President to Be Named by Be Election of a new president the Parent-Teachers association of Valencia high school in centia, to succeed Mrs. J.

They Want Part of our Citrus Sales Year by year, competition makes it increasingly necessary to do a more intensive job of selling Citrus Sales Year by year, competition makes it increasingly necessary to do a more intensive job of selling our ever-growing crops Our citrus crops are now faced by the advertising of more fresh fruit than ever before. In the summer they are also met by a battle between brewers and soft-drink bottlers for the nation's beverage patronage. In the winter, Florida has become an aggressive rival with state-sponsored advertising of citrus fruits. And throughout the year, canned fruits and juices vie with us as never before. Quality fruit, aggressively advertised and merchandised, has kept "Sunkist" at the top. Sunkist growers may rest assured that everything possible will be done by their marketing organization to keep it there and to offset the increasing rivalry. Exchange growers are doing most of the job of meeting the competitive situation. Therefore, it is especially encouraging to everyone in the change to see the steady addition membership that are taking place. Every new "Sunkist" grower only improves his own position joining the Exchange, but he also pushes his shoulder to the wheel to counteract the stiff competition markets for all our fruit.
