A platform for research: civil engineering, architecture and urbanism
So much has been written and spoken on the subject of the Colorado River in the past few years that perhaps the greatest need at present is an impartial digest of the facts and an estimate of the probabilities. This paper attempts to give both; it also present some as yet unpublished studies of flood protection, water supply, irrigable areas, and power demand which are important factors .in any study of the Colorado. Finally, it sets forth the salient features of a comprehensive scheme of development and points; out the lines on which activities of the Federal Government should be directed.
