After a great engineer, who really
•tarted this greatest project of all time
-—the Hoover Dam.”
The spike-driving ceremony marked
the start of construction of the 3J-mile I
Union Pacific branch line, which will
run from Boulder Junction to the dam
(Wte. . |
Actual work on the dam proper will
hot start for a year.
Dr. El wood Mead, head of the Recla
mation Bureau, who will supervise con- |
•traction, was taken ill just before the ;
ceremony.

signed a compact allocating water and
power, were present. There was no offl- j
rial representative from Arizona, the!
