THE sENATE's RECLAMATION
BILL IS CHANGED
Gives the President Sole Power to Au-
thOrfze New WOrk-Curbs
Secretary's Power.

Washington. D. c., Feb. 1.-THE SEN
ate committee on irrigation, which has
favOrably reported the bill authorizing
the issue of $30.00O,000 worth of certi-
ficates of Indebtedness for the purpose
OF raising money to complete existing
reclamation projects, amended the
measure in a number of important re-
spects- One amendment gives the
president the sole authority to author
fze new reclamation work, a power
which has heretofore been exercised by
the secretary of the interior.
The bill was amended in another re-
spect to permit the use OF the proceeds
raised from the sale Of the certificates
for carrying out all reclamation pro-
jects that have been approved hereto
fore by the secretary of the interior,
but upon which no work has vet been
done. This will greatly enlarge the
scope OF the bill and meet the OBJ
lection urged against the form OF the
measure as it was first proposed. that
it would practically nullify executive
orders heretofore made by the secretary
of the interior approving projects, be-
cause the language in the first draft OF
the bill made the funds applicable only
to projects that were under way.
Another amendment exempts the GER
tificates from all forms of federal or
local taxation The certificates are to
bear interest at the rate of 8 percent
quarterly and are issued in multiples
of $50
