C., THURSDAY, MARCH 29, 1923 - WORK WOULL CUT - RECLAMATION COSTS Orders Inquiry Into Service as Bad Crops Curtail Income From Water Fees. i The first step In a campaign to- ward an exhaustive probe of the redlamation and irrigation projects in western states was taken yesterday by Secretary of the Interior Work in an effort to cut costs. In instructions issued today to the Inspection force, Secretary Work sald that complaints of excessive costs would have to be eliminated. Wherever feasible curtailment will be made in the expenditures. The same problem faced former Secretary Fall, who met it by clos- ing several of the reclumation offices in the west. The reclamation serv- !ice derives part of its funds from users of water for irrigation. Poor crop seasons and tight money condi- tions during the past two years have hindered the settlers from paying their drrigation fees. reducing the revenues. The investigations are to begin with the so-called Rio Grande project. _— Two chop sticks broken in the pres- e of a witness are sufficlent to di- vorce a_couple In Cochin Chi; 1405 H St. N.W.
