HASKIN WASHINGTON, D. C., Feb. 9.—There are over two mil- lion acres of desert and unproductive land in five western states, which are at present of practically no value to any- This land not only produces neither food nor taxes, but jit is also a burden to the railroads which are forced to cross \the desert wastes between east and west without gaining vatively that they can build three At the same time there are in these|dams dnd power plants on the Colo- 1-|rado River, whiéh runs through this Some| country, and make available enough here; water to irrigate all of this desert mil- s| lion acres, and’at the same time pro: duce over 1,000,000 horsepower In’ elée- in| trical energy. The cost of the whole 8 tion is estimated at from fifty to million dollars. | Now this country is suffering from} Because of the many. different ine | s involved, Mr. Lané does not that this could be accomplished private enterprise, He says that n|it is essentially a public work, and |that is where his bond issue plain § | cc Ss in. n he railroads and the municipalittes near the desert are in the market for | the power as soon as developed. The Chicago, Milwaukee and St. Paul Railroad has proved the immense ad- | vantages of using electrical power in the propulsion of its train., The re- alts are known to the officiads of all he raliroads that cross ine desert lands. They would be poor business nm men net to buy all the hydro-electric {energy they can use, They want to do. so. ‘ n-| fer Lane feels sure that there could a general bond, covering the y of the improved land at ayout $50 an cre about one-fourth hk the current price of fair irrigzted land and the contracts of the. pro- posed users, «naling a-bond something like the present farm loan bonds. As jin the. case of, the farm loan bonds in| the national government would add its 1-| backing and indorsement. The bonds should be free from taxation because they are to be used to create taxable property ad for the public good. With *the present effort to reduce , the expenses of national government, s plan would not, conflict, because e bonds would go at onceon the n market for government *securi- ties. Being of the highest security and tax free they will get a good price at once. It is to be remem- bered alsé that in making these bonds tax free, the government will be a large beneficiary, because the | proceeds of these bonds are not to be nj) used for government tax free expen- ni) ditures, but are going at once to tries subject to all fed- and state taxes, A Bond Issue.

The farm- er is now paying less than $4 per acre. per year for the water he uses on his. jand and he has water when he wants it. The city of Phoenix and its peoplo are getting cheap electric lights and power and so are the smaller cities throughout the region. And the re sult of these successful workings is that the whole undertaking will be fully paid for by these earnings before |)! it is all due, and that thereafter the farmer will get his water for irriga- tion free, because the power revenue will be more than enough to meet all the operation expenses and replace- Before the water came to them the lands that now receive water from the Roosevelt dam were mostly worthless desert. Now they are valued at from $200 per acre upward.
