Half of Money Spent on Panama
Canal, Saya C. J. Blanchard,
Would Help Solve Problem.
NEW YORK, Feb. . 'The necessity
of expediting1 tho reclamation of in
creased areas of our desert Is obvious,"
said C. J. Blanchard. atatiatlclan of the
Reclamation Service, In an address to
night before tho Union League Club.
Thla" Is apparent," ho continued,
"when we consider that 160,000 good
American citizens are leaving our
country ' every year to take up homea
under another flag because opportuni
ties in this country are limited." -
"Our public domain, once an empire
In extent, today offers no opportunity
for the poor man," said Mr. Blanchard.
"It will not produce crops without an
expenditure of money beyond the
means of tho average citizen."
The Investment of half the cost of
tho Panama Canal would add vast
amounts to the National wealth, Mr.
Blanchard said, and continued:
"Conservative engineers say that
there are yet 30.000.000 acres of desert
to which water can be supplied and
80.000,000 acres of swamp and over
Mowed lands which can be drained.
The economic importance of such a
work as this scarcely can be realized.
The reclamation of this vast area
would provide homes on the land for
2.760,000 families, each family occu
pying a 40-acre farm. The addition
of our Natlon'a wealth In land values
alone would bo not lesa than til, 000,
000,000, or ten tlmea the amount of our
National debt."
