He is expected to give some reas suring statements in that regard. The president explained that the money made available to him by con gress there had been allotted "In these states of the coast a much larger proportion of that fund than the population of the three states Justifies.'' "We did it in my Judgment with perfect propriety," he said, "and with the knowledge that thoBe states which did not get quite as much as the coast got would understand and ap prove it. Need More Population "We did It because out here in the mountain states and In the coast states you have unlimited natural resources. You have acreage capable of supporting a much larger popula tion than you now have. And we be lieve that by proceeding with these great projects It will not only de velop the well being of the far west and the coast, but will also give an opportunity to many Individuals and many families back In the older set tled parts of the nation to come out here and distribute some of the bur dens which fall on them more heavily than fall on the west." Quoting Horace Greely's famous advice, "Go west, young rrjan, go west," Mr. Roosevelt said it was ''sup. posed to be out of date today but there is a great opportunity for the people In the east, people In the south and In some of the overcrowd ed parts of the mid die west some people from sub-marginal iands who have proved conclusively that It Is a mighty difficult thing to earn an adequate living on those lands." "I leave here today," he concluded, "with the feeling that this work is well undertaken, that we are going ah?ad with a useful project and that we are going to see It through for the .benefit of our country."
