18 - ' THE EVENING STAR, WASHINGTON, D. €. MONDAY. MAY 31, 1926. S ENDSDISPUTE OVER WATERDUES Farmers in Nebraska to Get Irrigation of Lands—Had Denounced Work. By the Amsociated Press. . SCOTTS BLUFF, Nebr., May 31.— Yesterday was commemorated as both Memorial and thanksgiivng day by hundreds of North Platte Valley farm- ers. Their bitter dispute with Fed- eral authorities over irrigation pay- ments was over following a settle- ment reached Saturday night, and bumper crops were in prospect. The valley farmers and the Govern- ment Department of the Interior were disagreed as to the terms of mainte- nance and operating costs of the val- ley irrigation project, virtually the =ole source of moisture for more than 107,000 acres of land in the valley. The farmers declared the Reclama- tion Bureau promised to withhold de- mand for payment of delinquent dues until the 1926 crops were harvested, but the department demanded imme- diate payments of all past and pres- ent dues or some satisfactory security. During the disagreement all water supply was held in the irrigation ditches. The dispute became serious in aspect last Thursday night when a crowd of angry farmers hung Secretary of the Interior Work in effigy. On suggestion from the Interior De- partment, however, the assocjation voted to assume maintenance and op- eration charges from July, 1926, to January 1, 1927, after which a joint lability district will be formed. The Government, in turn, promised im- mediate water supply. The water was not turned on yes-! terday, however, as the Memorial day holiday interfered with prompt action from Washington. Orders for imme- diate supply of water, however, are expected, and within three days every lateral and canal will be filled and farmers will be busy turning water on the corn, wheat and other crops which stood in great need. The principal crop, sugar beets, will soon require all available water. WHITE HOUSE FLOWERS ADORN VERMONT GRAVES Burial Places of President's Son and Father Receive Mem- morial Day Care.
