MR. ROOSEVELT AT GRAND COULEE

Relief for Mid-Westerners Through Dam Aboard the President's

Special Train, Oct. 2.

President Roosevelt to-day stood upon the rocky eminence of Grand Coulee Dam and predicted the project "will help thousands of midwestern dust bowl victims to live better lives" with irrigation and cheap water power.
