The conservative program now being carried out by the Reclamation Bu- reau does not and cannot operate ine Jjuriously in other sections of the coun= try, Dr. Elwood Mead, commissioner of that service in the Interior Department, saild yesterday in discussing informally the program which. is now oefore Con« gress, Dr. Mead brought a recent ad~ dress by B. E. Stoutemyer, of Portland, Oreg., the bureau's district counsel, to bear on the discussion, as illustrating clearly that the reclamation of lands in the West will not further 'depress agriculture in other parts of the coun~ try, as is claimed by some of the op- ponents of the policy. “Under our program the operations of the bureau for the next 10 years are confined to the completion of projects already authorized and to the rescue of partly developed projects,” Dr. Mead insisted. ~ “The Stwutemyer address shows clearly that reclamation creates more markets for farm products in mills and factories located in other sec- tions of the country than its irrigated land ships outside. This aspect of rec- lamation has been overlooked in much of the discussion in.the East.” Abolition of the Department of Agri- culture as a solution of thé farm prob- lem “if a surplus of farm products is really such a bad thing” was advocated by Mr. Stoutemyer in his address, de- livered a tew aays ago, whicn Dr. Mead - considers one of tue clearest exposi- . tions of the reclamation situation that has been presented. Mr. Stoutemyer pointed out that “if the people of the corn belt really want to get rid of crop surplus” they shoula let the corn borer alone for about three years and that will accomplish the resuit. As the Department of Agriculture, he ex- plained, is concerned with the control of pests that normally prevent a farm surplus, by halting its work, these pests would insure that an' abundance of crops would be speedily requced. “With the enure couniry contribut- ing money raised by taxation to buid levees along the Mississippt River so that farm crops may conunue in uux country, and Proviaing - appropria to ngne the corn borer in the Miaale West, the boll weevil in the South and the prowntait moth m new kngland, it would seem ungratetul for the people of those sections to insist. that there should be no help for aistressed settlers on irrigation projects in the Far West, help can be extended by the use of the reclamation rund which comes entirely from the sale of: tax country,” Mr. Stoutemyer aeclared. o 100 CUSTOMS AGENTS SEARCH FRENCH LINER Finding of Liquor Store on Pier Leads to Vigilant Guard by Company and U.
