Unifying Efforts
Affiliation of the M&WA and
CofC, brought about late Friday

ROBBERS SOUGHT
IN DALLAS
Constable L. C. Mann was back
in Fort Worth Saturday after a
futile search In Dallas Friday for
two men who robbed John Foster,
22, Memphis, Tenn., of $19 and
his clothing near Grapevine Thurs-
day night.
Foster, who was on route from
Dallas to Childress, accepted a
ride to Fort Worth with the two
men. He was forced out of the
car near Grapevine by the two
men, who kept his belongings.
Mann said he had a good de-
scription of the two men, but was
unable to locate them In Dallas.
The stripping of a parked truck
near the scene of the robbery also
was blamed on the two men.

WASHINGTON, Jan. 29.—Th«
House will pass the Swlng-John-
son Boulder Dam bill, as now
drawn, if the Rules Committee al-
lows a vote. .
This was indicated today by •
survey of the membership. The
administration - controlled rules
committee, whose chairman, Ber-
trand Snell, almost dally confers
with President Coolidge, Speaker
Longworth and Floor Leader Til-
son. has refused thus far to per-
mit Boulder Dam to come before
the House. %
Before the primary elections
last summer, the administration
made strong representations of
friendship for Colorado River de-
velopment.
Since the elections, administra-
tion statements have been more
and more general. The presi-
dent's message said: “The great
projects of extension of the Mis-
sissippi system, the protection
and development of the Lower
Colorado Rivet are before Con-
gress and I have prevfously com-
mented on them. I favor the
necessary legislation to expedite
these projects.”
