"THE meaning of ,true greatness is a lesson which many of us find difficult to learn. The mistaken interpretation of the term, however, is not original with us‘ Some of* the 12 whom Jesus chose. for. His inner circle of disciples, 1f not all of them, showed at times such an amazing misunderstanding of their Master and His spirit that one wonders how they ever came to be His followers at all. eS * Perhaps the strong incentive was their belief that Jesus -was about to set up a kingdom. And at this stage of the ministry of Jesus, their minds and hearts were full of this earthly kingdom. In journeying, to Capernaum, for example, they had been disputing with one anothe’ “bout which of them was greai Kindly, mildiy. Jesus admonished them, teaching them the lesson of true greatness. He enforced it. by setting a little child in the midst to remind* them that they . must become as little children if they would find their true place in His kingdom. Na : -And all this. Jesus made more plain by a specific act, as well by His .general ,example, when He washed the disciples’ feet. The fact that this incident occurred near the very end of the ministry of Jesus shows how slow the disciples were in learning. But in this respect, aren’t we all? There is no lesson that the world of men, and even the world-of professing Christians, learns’ with more difficulty than that concerning the true meaning of greatness. Too many of us are prone to seek a small personal kingdom as a manifestation of our own greatness. And by so doing, we sometimes lose sight of the true and only greatness—that of the kingdom of God. FIRE TRAINING COURSE — TO BE AT HOBART MILLS More than 75 staff officers and . field personnel of the Tahoe na. tional forest will participate in, the annual fire control training meetings to be held next week at Hobart Mills in eastern Nevada county.

OUR CONGRESSMAN REPORTS: SRA TS TI TA Vital Decision on Water Rights A case of special importance to the people of California was decided last.week by the supreme court. It was U. S.-vs. Gerlach, in which the question was presented as to. whether or not riparian : owners along the San Joaquin river could require compensation from the federal government for. the loss ‘of their water rights caused by the construction of Friant dam and the consequent diversion of the normal flow of the river. The supreme céurt held that the federal government was. required to compensate for the lost riparian water rights. For many years there has been a graVe question as to the effect on existing water rights of the building of a federal reclamation project. The Central Valley Project in California is a good illustration both on the San Joaquin River and the Sacramento. River. The question was whether or not the building of the Central Valley Project gave the federal government title or control over the waters of those rivers. i Land Owners Protected The Supreme Court decision in th€ Gerlach case is a milestone of immense importance because it makes plain once and for all that the building of a federal reclamation project does not limit or take away water rights of private land owners acquired under state law. If such water rights are adversely affected by a reclamation project, they must be compensated for. More importantly, the decision for the first time, so far as I know, sets forth the power of the federal government to enter upon large-scale. reclamation projects under the general welfare clause of the constitution of the United States. The Central Valley Project of California was authorized under the commerce clause of the constitution, dealing with the power of congress over navigation and navigable streams. The Supreme Court said in the Gerlach case that congress had the power to authorize the project under the general welfare clause of the constitution. : Federal Liability Broadened ¢ The difference is this: Many decisions have held that the fed. eral government.is not responsible to private owners of land or water for losses due to the exercise by congress of the constitutional power over navigation and navigable streams. This placed in grave doubt the water rights of private owners on navigable streams on which federal projects are in operation since they have all been authorized under the power of congress.to deal with navigation on navigable streams. The decision placing the source of authority for these reclamation projects under the general welfare clause of. the constitution changes all that. . There is no limitation on the liability of. the federal government for taking private rights when exercising the general welfare clause of the constitution. In short, then, reclamation in the U. S. since the Gerlach ease is on much safer ground both from the standpoint of the constitutional authority under which those. projects are built by the federal government, and for the landowners, who can be assured of compensation for any loss of firm water rights due to a reclamation project. This decision, then, clearly lays at rest the fears of those whose firm water rights under state law might be affected by the Central Valley Project’ on the Sacramento and the San Joaquin rivers, and extension of the Central Valley Project to the American river system, or in the future any other river or navigable: stream in the state. 4-H EXHIBIT DAY SUNDAY AT THE . .

Too many of us are prone to seek a small personal kingdom as a manifestation of our own greatness. And by so doing, we sometimes lose sight of the true and only greatness—that of the kingdom of God.

OUR CONGRESSMAN REPORTS: SRA TS TI TA Vital Decision on Water Rights A case of special importance to the people of California was decided last.week by the supreme court. It was U. S.-vs. Gerlach, in which the question was presented as to. whether or not riparian : owners along the San Joaquin river could require compensation from the federal government for. the loss ‘of their water rights caused by the construction of Friant dam and the consequent diversion of the normal flow of the river. The supreme céurt held that the federal government was. required to compensate for the lost riparian water rights. For many years there has been a graVe question as to the effect on existing water rights of the building of a federal reclamation project. The Central Valley Project in California is a good illustration both on the San Joaquin River and the Sacramento. River. The question was whether or not the building of the Central Valley Project gave the federal government title or control over the waters of those rivers. i Land Owners Protected The Supreme Court decision in th€ Gerlach case is a milestone of immense importance because it makes plain once and for all that the building of a federal reclamation project does not limit or take away water rights of private land owners acquired under state law. If such water rights are adversely affected by a reclamation project, they must be compensated for. More importantly, the decision for the first time, so far as I know, sets forth the power of the federal government to enter upon large-scale. reclamation projects under the general welfare clause of the constitution of the United States. The Central Valley Project of California was authorized under the commerce clause of the constitution, dealing with the power of congress over navigation and navigable streams. The Supreme Court said in the Gerlach case that congress had the power to authorize the project under the general welfare clause of the constitution. : Federal Liability Broadened ¢ The difference is this: Many decisions have held that the fed. eral government.is not responsible to private owners of land or water for losses due to the exercise by congress of the constitutional power over navigation and navigable streams. This placed in grave doubt the water rights of private owners on navigable streams on which federal projects are in operation since they have all been authorized under the power of congress.to deal with navigation on navigable streams. The decision placing the source of authority for these reclamation projects under the general welfare clause of. the constitution changes all that. . There is no limitation on the liability of. the federal government for taking private rights when exercising the general welfare clause of the constitution. In short, then, reclamation in the U. S. since the Gerlach ease is on much safer ground both from the standpoint of the constitutional authority under which those. projects are built by the federal government, and for the landowners, who can be assured of compensation for any loss of firm water rights due to a reclamation project. This decision, then, clearly lays at rest the fears of those whose firm water rights under state law might be affected by the Central Valley Project’ on the Sacramento and the San Joaquin rivers, and extension of the Central Valley Project to the American river system, or in the future any other river or navigable: stream in the state. 4-H EXHIBIT DAY SUNDAY AT THE . .
