Senator McNary's report on Ills t 250,000,000 .reclamation bill now baforo congress , recommends tho bill's passage for a xttmbor of strong reason. Tho report sar In part: "Nineteen years haro passed slnco tho enactment of tho reclamation net, and under Ita boncflclal Intluenco tkero has been added to tho cultivat ed area of our country 1,187,000 Acres of land under distinct federal -reclamation projects. And thcro has been supplied by tho government water to 916,000 acres within private irrigation enterprises. Theso lands be foro reclamation woro largely barron desert wasto and unproductive Crop of If ago Vatae "During 1919 on tho 1, 1ST, 000 acres within tho federal projects roBa were grown of a gross value of 19,000,000, and on the land In priv ate Irrigation projects receiving wat er from federal projects thero were Crown crops of a gross vajuo of J64,. tW.000, or a total of 1153,000,000, compared with a governmental ex yeadlture of approximately $133, 00,000. As a result of this expendi ture there aro fixed properties of a total value of upwards of 1550,000, 0. loan Femd Cnr-atrd - "The bill Is designed to accomplish the following purpeses: "First Greatly to augment tho assail amount of money which Is now available for tho reclamation of land by Irrigation. This will bo accom plished through the sale of bonds of Irrigation districts whose validity has M Judicially established. To enable the secretary of the Interior to com saence and complete projects tho se cretary of tho treasury is authorised a4 directed to transfer from time to time to the credit of the reclatv tea land an aggregate amount not " to exceed $250,000,000. with a limit ation of $20,000,000 for .tho first I Tear, 135.000,0000 tho second year, tl,000,000 the third year and each oceedlDg year for a period of three Tears a sum not to exceed 150,000, 00. At the end of -twenty rars the kill, provides there (ball be transfer red from the proceeds of the rcclama tlon fund arising from the salo of district bonds to tho treasury of the Vatted States, tSO.000,000 annually watll the same advanced shall have aeea fully paid. Including accumulat ed Interest. District, to Organise "Second Future reclamation pro jects under the bill shall be initiated by duly organized districts in co-ope-Tatlon with tho secretary of tho Inte rior. Before such co-operation shall ae extended, the land owners who de sire their land reclaimed shall or ganize a district under laws. Into a corporation having full taxing power. "Third All future reclamation irojeets undertaken In virtue of this legislation aro placed on an interest paying basis. It Is thought under ex isting conditions the government should not bo called upon to supply fands to continue work of this char acter without interest as It has In the past because the money Is direct ly advanced from tho treasury to the reclamation fund and docs not accrue from tho sale of public lands and from ether sources. Kecrctary To Judge "Fourth The money provided by this moasure cannot bo used until a district shall file a petition with the secretary of the interior accompanied by maps showing tho lands of the district, together with plans, estl aaates and description of the project to be constructed and the payment of one half of the estimated cost of the preliminary investigation. There aster it the secretary of the Interior believes the project is feasible fog re clamation and settlement, believes that the district is duly authorized to enter into a contract with the United States and that the validity of the organization of the district and, of the bonds has been determined thru a Judicial confirmation, and tho own ers of the excess lands shall have agreed upon the price, terms and conditions at which the excess hold ings shall be sold to settlers, then ' the secretary may enter Into a con tract' with the district for the reclam ation of the lands. AMeta Hade liquid "Fifth The strength of the pro posed legislation lies in the means provided whereby valuable ' assets created through the reclamation and settlement of the lands in the dis trict aro rendored liquid and avail able for financing the reclamation of tber lands. This situation Is brought bout through further financing of In Ye Oldm Home Town , itmt w- soy vcr fcw J- THS CIRCUS tAKO AK TH H"N""a 5 fSBa - C-- STARTED UP AT Te " TIW TOP- 5 gj-T V tho bonds of the districts that aro or ganlzcd. These Jionds Issued will bo doposlted with tho federal farm loan board. Upon request of tho secretary of tho Interior tho board will mako an Investigation and determine that tho valuo of tho property In tho dis trict subject to assessment for tho payment of the bonds Is not loss than twice tho par valuo of, the bonds. Tho board shall then offer the bonds at public or prlvato sale, and shall de posit thb proceeds to tho credit of tho reclamation fund. By this method tho government Is not asked to loan Its credit to tho districts, but simply au thorises an existing governmental agency to glvo Its estimate of tho value of tho property, thereby entail ing neither moral nor legal obliga tion upon the government to assumo any of tho liabilities Imposed by tho Issuance of bonds. Fond to Turn Over "After the bonds are sold and re turned to the reclamation fund, the proceeds again become available for reclamation of other lands. An accu rate statement of tho number of times the fund made avallablo herein will turn over cannot be made. But It Is fair to assume that the $"250,000,. 000 will mako three turnovers In eighteen years, allowing a period of six years for each turnover. "Sixth The bill provides that as to-all excess lands In a .district 'and all unentered public lands therein ex service men and women shall have preference to purchase for a period of sixty days from the time when the lands are thrown open for sale. Farms Are Limited ' "Seventh The bill wisely provides that the secretary of the Interior, In entering Into a contract for the con struction of a project must fix tho maximum farm unit at 160 acres, be ing the amount of-land which any person will be allowed to hold and receive a water right. Excess lands owned by private parties are to be sold by the secretary at price, terms and conditions agreed upon." Pictures printed In dots on the Braille system, aro the latest.
