Senator Hansbrough this afternoon In

tee Of seventeen, appointed by the Sen
ators and Representatives from the arid
and semi-arid States This bill was en-
dorsed al meeting o. the Senator's and
Members from all the arid States held
last night
The bill is a lengthy one and covers
many details The Senators from the
Western Sta-es express themselves as
highly pleased with the agreement which
has been reached, and quite confident that
the bill can pass the Senate.
Il is probably true that the measure
can be adopted in the Senate, for more
than twenty Senators have participated in
the conferences. But its chance IN the
House is another story
