WASHINGTON. Aug. 3,-Under-
wood and the house machine have
turned the reclamation service into a
-pork.barrel bureau. BY a record vote
OF IFS TO 40 the house adopted the
Underwood amendment TO the senate
bill extending the time OF payment on
reclamation projects, so that In future
the appropriations for projects are to
be made out OF the reclamation fund
by congress, and the matter Is taken
away from the secretary OF the In
terror
Underwood's amendment Is as fol-
lows: That from and after July 1,
1915. expenditures shall not be made
for carrying out the purposes OF the
reclamation law except out OF appro-
priations made annually by congress
therefor. and the secretary Of the In
terror shall, for the fiscal year 1916
and annually thereafter, In the reg
ular book Of estimates. submit to con-
gress estimates OF the amount neces-
sary to be expended for carrying out
any or all Of the purposes authorized
by the reclamation law, including the
extension and completion OF existing
projects and units thereof and the
construction of new projects. The
annual appropriations made hereunder
by congress for such purposes shall
be paid out OF the reclamation fund
provided for by the reclamation law"
IL adopted by the senate. the result
Of this amendment will be to take
away from the secretary Of the In
terror all control over the expendi
lures of the reclamation fund. and to
put IL into the hands of the politicians
at the capitol. The effect would be
to make another river-and-harbor
pork barrel proposition OF 1t. Every
congressman west of the Mississippi
would be put under pressure by local
interests to get slice of the treas

ment. but Of satisfying the political

Underwood and the spoilsmen voted

supported by the progressive con-
gressmen generally, who realize that
a pork barrel policy means the end
Of the usefulness OF the reclamation
service.
That the pork barrel river and
harbor bill has been killed Is the
opinion OF Senator Kenyon Of Iowa

fight has only just begun. The real
trouble Is with the system and that
must be broken down. My predic'
tion Is that publicity will eventually
kill the whole miserable thing. The

were not called upon. bore the expense
out Of their own pockets OF providing
the necessary equipment In the way OF

financial outlay. while considerable,

self-sacrifice OF the dentists, to whom

Offices meant personal Inconvenience,

The Times editorials, pointing out
the necessity that the budget appro-
prlation for the free dental clinics this
year be allowed In full, and citing
the good results accomplished, un-
doubtedly had a strong bearing upon
