MOJAVE RIVER PLAN DROPPED Project To Obtain Water From Vallev Meets With Failure The Mojave river project, as far as Orange, Riverside and San Bernardino counties are concerned, had "dried up" today. This plan for transporting Mojave river water for use in the three counties once was "boomed" as a substitute for the Orange county flood control and water conservation program. It was an issue on which many a battle was fought during local campaigns to put over flood control bond issues. The death knell of the Mojave project was sounded by Francis Cuttle of Riverside, water expect Today's second cooking school class disclosed a multitude of suggestions for the removal of toil and tedium from the kitchen. Practical menus with attractive possibilities were welcomed by the housewife. Fine recipes, too were offered to add extra pleasure of the thrice-daily task of meal preparation. In addition, many helpful suggestions on easier home management were given by Miss Jane Kruse, the director of the school. Foremost among these was the importance Miss Kruse assigns to good cooking equipment. In spite of the fact that the kitchen is the most important room in the house, in many homes its furnishings are far less modern than those in any other room," she said. "Fortunately, this condition is being remedied to some extent, and many families are beginning to modernize their kitchens. In a large majority of cases, the equipment being purified..."

It was an issue on which many a battle was fought during local campaigns to put over flood control bond issues. The death knell of the Mojave project was sounded by Francis Cuttle of Riverside, water expect of that county. He said the project had been abandoned. Cuttle is chairman of a committee representing the three counties, which has been making a two-year survey of the project's feasibility. Cuttle blamed "hasty alarm" for failure of the plan. He said that "had the project gone through without alarm caused largely by people who had no property or financial interest at stake, it is quite likely that a plan could have been worked out whereby those having vested rights to the water of the Mojave river could have had flood dangers removed without expense . . . to themselves, and . . . valuable water could have been put to use to augment failing supplies of the Santa Ana river." Mojave people, it was reported, feared they would be left without water, and another Owens river valley situation would develop. Engineers differed on the question, some saying the project's expense would be prohibitive, others saying it was within reason.
