Mr. Teller stated the estimated cost of the pro- Posed work at a million anda quarter; and Said (ironically) that, possibly, that sum might be more than the United States could afford to spend on the irregation of four-tenths of the area of the United States. The time would come (and before very long) when the Government of the United Staves would have to do what every government in the world had done in the arid regions—that 1s, put out its money to bulld reservoirs and irrigating canals. ‘There was in British India adam sixty miles long, and to- day the British government 18 spending’ millions of pounds in restoring the old reservoirs and ca- als of India. ‘Phe amendment was adopted.
