Washington, July 22. — Senator.
Chamberlain has many times profess«!
to be working to «e»*ure for Oregon a
larger share of the reclamation pro
ject. and has maintain«! that he has
done everything in his power to bring
stmut the construction of new projects
in his state. But if Senator Chamber- .
lain is honestly in favor of promoting
government reclamation work in Ore- '
gon he has a strange way of showing
it
He recently introduced a bill
which, if pass«!, would divert mil- !
lions of dollars annually from the rec
lamation fun«!, for the «instruction of
dams, canals, etc., to control floods.
Senator Chamberlain's bill is brief
It authorises the ««»cretary of the in
terior to construct
dik«*s, dame,
ditches, etc., for the storage and di
version and development of waters, to
prevent injury to eropa an»l fertile
lands and other property caus«»d by
fiooda and fr«-»heta originating on for
est reserves and Irslian reservations,
the expense of such construction to be
paid out of the national reclamation
fund.
