This bill gives the federal bureau of biological survey access to government work funds without working through other departments and is expected to greatly stimulate the game preserva- tion movement, Advices received by the Bismarck committee active on the project have been to the effect that the Burleigh county proposal stands near the head of the list if further money is granted to the biological survey for construc- tion of propagation areas, ruined in drouth. The plan of the local committee is to construct s dam in Apple Creek about two miles west and three and ® quarter miles north of the village of McKenzie, which would store 13,- 000 acre feet of water. This could be released at will to maintain the level in a duck marsh to be develop- ed below the dam and extending both north and south of Highway No, 10 just west of McKenzie. This marsh would comprise 3,063 acres and would be one of the largest waterfowl prop- eanuce projects in central North Da- ta. In a recent letter to the local com- mittee, J. Clark Salyer, IT, an official of the bureau of biological survey ex- pressed confidence that, if the reso- lution granting the bureau separate access to federal funds were passed, it would greatly improve the chance of getting the proposed development.
