 sideration. The result of his work dispels any doubt whatever regard- 

 ing the sufficiency of outlet for gravity drainage for approximately 

 ninety per cent of the land traversed, basing the elevation of discharge 

 upon the average level of Great Salt Lake for the past quarter of a cen-

It is not the purpose of the Commercial Club to enter into a tech- 

 nical discussion relative to engineering, the sufficiency of water for irri- 

 gation or other features involved in the ultimate reclamation of this 

 great tract, or, to pass upon the merit of any existing enterprise, it is 

 the development of the tract as a whole in which this club is interested 

 to the end that it may conform to the otherwise unsurpassed environ- 

 ment of Salt Lake City.
