Five Billion for Public improvements

Delegates to the fourth session of the
Dry Farming Congress at Billings, Mont,
October 26 to %, were urged to adopt
resolution, prepared by Arthur Hooker
of Spokane, secretary of the eighteenth
National Irrigation Congress, providing
for the issuance by the United States
government of IS, 900, 900, 900 in gold
bonds, bearing interest not to exceed 8
per cent and running for 100 years, for
the following purposes, where it can be
shown the work is warranted:
One billion dollars for the construc-
ton of national highways and good
roads.
One billion dollars for the construc-
ton and improvement of deep water
ways.
One billion dollars for forest protec-
ton, reforestation and conservation OF
forest resources.
One billion dollars for the reclamation
by irrigation OF arid and semiarid lands.
One billion dollars for the drainage of
overlooked and swamp lands.
According to Mr.. Hooker there is a
woful lack of good roads and national
highways throughout the United States.
AS result the losses to the farm area
is more than 5000, 0G0 annually. He
also says the improvements OF the water
ways will be of direct benefit to the
people by increasing the transportation
facilities of the country; mentioning
also that now is the time for the protec-
ton OF the forests and the reclamation
of 100000 acres of arid and semi
arid lands by irrigation and the drainage
of 80,000,000 acres of overlooked and
and swamp lands.
