district, and Hulert Work, secre
tary of the Interior, will not rec
ommend the program to fonnren.
be Informed tbe district In a letter
that wa read at the meeting or the
directors yesterday.
Secretary Work favora an alter
native plan, one which has the en
dorsement, of H. I). Newell, project
director, which enulls deepening
of tbe main drains of the project
at a cost ot $80. 000. This lo he
followed by const ruction of some leu
miles of new drains costing $50,
000. This latter iplun could be rec
ommended to congress, wrote the
secretary.
The major plan a put before
the reclamation bureau by resolu
tion would provide drainage for
St, 000 acrtw. Secretary Work
writes that the cot of the survey
for th work would alone cost
$10,000.
This cost of survey would be
entailed with every prospect that
the proposed construction will he
found to cost more than the lands 1
to be benefited ran possibly stand."
wrote Secretary Work. "There are j
no funds available for such on In
Teatigatlon and if It is undertaken I
the funds must be provided by the
district." j
His letter continued:
"It would be man- years before
the. money available in the reclama
tion fund would Justify recom
mendation to congress that addi
tional construction work of this
magnitude. Involving millions of
dollars, be undertaken." i

Nearly as .many people were pres
ent from Oregon as California, for
the dedication of the 12i0-foot
structure was of as great import-1
ance to Oregon as it was to Califor
nia, due to the fact that the famed
Redwood highway is now open from
Sausaltto in Marin county to Grants
Pas. Oregon.. However, the bridge
contractor worked so rapidly that)
he finished ahead of schedute, with'
the result the new road leading to)
