WASHINGTON, D. C, April 8.
Senator McNary, of Oregon,
chairman of the senate Irrigation
and reclamation committee, has
announced a national reclamation
policy which he will put forth at
the next season of congress. The
plan, which McNary believes will
eliminate log rolling in congress,
embraces all forms of reclama
tion in all parts of the country,
Including drainage of swamp
lands.
Tha senator announced that ha
wou'd propose establishment by
congress of a revolving fund of
from $350,000,000 to $500,000,
000 to capitalize reclamation pro
jects, upproved by the secretary
of the Interior and incorporated
under the laws of the state or
states in which they might be
ituated.
The plan would contemplate tha
issuance of bonds by the Incor
porated reclamation districts or
projects, which in the opinion of

The court then Informed the girl
that she would not be forced to
answer any question which might
incriminate her. District Attorney
Harmon Sklllln. then began to In
terrogate the witness. He asked
her categorically questions, where
the county jail was, the names of
her attorneys, where they were
seated. She gave her -responses in
low but clear voice, answering ev
ery query tersely.
"Are you chnrged with any crim
inal act?" inquired the prosecutor.
"I am," said the girl.
"What Is that charge?"
"Murder."
The examination proceeded with
a test of the girl's knowledge of
the legal procedure that culminat
ed in the present sanity trial, be
fore a special jury. She then
gave the names of the alienists
who examined her at the county
Jail. She showed no nervousness.
She was attired modishly In her
Ian gown. Dorothy was called to
the stand by the prosecution oer
the objections of the defense. Be
fore she was allowed to testify
there was an argument on the de
fense claim that she could not
testify against the advice of her
counsel.
After the girl had been question
ed about 30 minutes, both sides
rested and final arguments were
begun.
When McAtee went Into events I
following the death of her mother,
the girl responded calmly.
The prosecution objected to the
"die Bcope" of the cross examlna-
lieve in local government and not I Commerce of the United States.
