The Secretary expresses the belief that
irrigation will, in the near future, become
subject for legislation by Congress. there
being important reasons why it should have
the attention of that body
The departments position in this matter
Is expressed tersely in the following propo-
sitions:
THAT private enterprise will have to be
supplemented by public aid in the construc-
ton of certain classes Of irrigation works
II we are to secure the largest development
of western agriculture.
That reservoirs located in the channels
OF running streams should be public works.
THAT the first step toward national aid
for irrigation should be the passage Of en-
ngntened codes OF water laws by the states
to be benefited.
That the land laws should be modified
by repeating the desert act and by requiring
cultivation as well as residence on a home
stead.
That the non-irrigable grazing lands
should be leased in small tracts so as to
unite the lrrlgable and the pasture lands"
