Washington, D. C.— The reclamation section of the Interior department ap | proprtatlon bill, carrying approximate 1 ly J7.000.000 for reclamation work for the next fiscal year, was approved by the house. Western members offered a number of amendments, but the majority ol them were rejected. No serious conflict over the land set' tlement and other restrictions written Into the bill developed on the floor This battle has been reserved for a later dale, when the measure reaches the senate. Western senators have been consid­ ering the action they should take and a movement is on foot to rewrite the limiting provisions under which they say it is hopeless to expect any nety project to be built for a long time to come. The need for legislation which will mean real development instead ol locked up appropriations will he urged on President Coolidge, and some of the republican leaders of both senate and house are said to be Inclined to believe the time has come to do something about the complaints that reclamation is being strangled. Revision Sought. Undismayed by the heavy voting odds against them, the democratic members of the house are redoubling their efforts to break down th * present republican tariff. Many tariff revision bills have been Introduced and referred to commit tees. One by Representative Hull, demo­ crat, Tennessee, would repeal the 10 per cent levy on Imported rubber tires A aeries by Representative Weller, democrat. New York, would restore the old democratic Underwood rates on livestock, grain and poultry pro­ ducts. 1 A bill to permit manufacture and sale of 2.75 per cent alcoholic bever­ ages was Introduced by Mrs. Florence P. Kahn, republican representative ol California. Sesk Further Tax Cut.

Reclamation Loss M ay Be Forgiven Washington, D. C.— The w riting off of 314,317.160 as a deficit on 19 reclam­ ation projects was recommended to congress by tbe board ot adjustment and survey of the interior department. The board also recommended that 312.- 785.137 be estimated as a probable loss. The losses were attributod to the construction of irrigation works on land naturally infertile, to inadequate water supply, and to other causes. The largest estimated loss was on the Newlanda project In Nevada, where It was recommended that 34,- 536,396 be charged off as not recover­ able and 3813,264 be estimated as a possible loss. The M ilk river project in Montana was second on tha list with a definite loss of 31.946,189 and a probable loss of 31,878,656 more. On the North Platte project in Nebraska, Wyo., the probable loss was fixed at 32,837,864. of which 3237,877 was defin­ ite. The fourth was the Uncompahgre project In Colorado, where the definite loss was estimated at 31.365.427 and 31,436,155 more was given aa probable.
