Arrangements Have Been Made for Discussion of Entire Reclama-
 tion Problem
MANY MATTERS
 ARE AT ISSUE
Time Extension and Interest Charges Are Among Questions to Be
 Considered

At the meeting of the board of gov which will be hed March %, the whole reclamation problem. as it applies to this valley. will be threshed out. At least an attempc will be made along that line. and several specific propo- sitions. it is said. will be advanced.
 In brief, these propositions. accord ing to the best information pDtainable. will be as follows:
 The Ieferring of the opening of the project: the establishment of system of graduated payments: the early completion of the project; and an arrangement whereby the farmers themselves shall have charge of the distribution of the water.
 The power to arrange for . system of graduated payments is in the hands of the interior department. as. indeed, are all the other matters above men, toned. Another matter that will be discussed at the governors meeting is the question whether the proposed bill to provide for d time extension of pay ments should be pressed at this time.
 An objection which mas been ad- Vanced to the extension of time for the payments. is the alleged fact that it will open the door to the government to charge interest on the amount re- quireL for reclamation in this valley for the whole time the money has been in use. Letters have been written by both Secretary Fisher and the assist ant secretary it is said. declaring that in the event of an extension, such in- terest should be charged. These let ters are alleged to have been written to .he chairman of the arid lands com mittee of the senate.
 At the meeting Saturday this point was discussed by Senator Mark smith who called attention to the fact that many Eastern senators are strongly in favor of this interest charge. and he declared IL would be extremely diff cult to pass an extension bill without having an interest clause attached.
 However. the whole matter will be discussed thoroughly and it is possible definite plan of procedure win Dc mapped out.
