The conferees are separated as wide- i ly as the poles over the "recapture" lause, providing for the return to the government of water power rights at the expiration of leases to private in terests. The conservationists condemn he bill as passed by the senate, as having been drafted for the benefit of "the interests," and to the detri ment of the public They approve the house substitute. On the floor of the enate conserva tionists and anti-conservationists are engaged In a seemingly interminable debate over the Myers water power bill. providing for the disposition of water power rights on the publlo domain. The measure has been under discussion nearly 10 days and the prospects of a vote were still so uncertain today that there was talk of sidetracking the bill to clear the right of way for other legislation. The leasing bill, the other Important conservation bill, has become the sub ject of so much controversy that there is almost no1 prospect of action on It at this session.
