REPORT OF COMMITTEE
To the Board of Commissioners for the
Fifth Louisiana Levee District:


March IL, 1914
Gentlemen-To carry out our instruct
ions Committee went to Shreveport on the
9th inst. We consulted with'Hon. L. E.
Thomas who said he would be glad to do
any thing possible to assist us in placing
our bonds, but did not think there was
any chance of disposing Of them at this
present time, at par and recommended
placing them with a good Bond House.
He advised us to see Mr.. Jordan of the
Red River Bank who was member of
the Caddo Levee Board, and Mr.. Lyman
Denkins, whom he considered the best
posted man on bonds in the State.
We saw Mr.. Jordan and has suggestion
wrote letter to the Caddo Levee Board.
stating the facts of our bond issue, which
he promised to deliver to call meeting
of their board and said if they had any
surplus funds he would advocate the in
vesting them in our bonds.
We then visited the Commercial Ma
tional Bank and met its President, Mr..
Smith; after stating our mission, he said.
we have the very man here now you
should see and introduced us to Mr. Shep,
perd, representing Coler & Co., the lead
ing banking house of New York. We
went into conference with him, giving
him all the data concerning our bonds
and he promised to submit at this meet
ing, but discouraged us in expecting to
placethem at par.
From Shreveport we went to New Or
leans, saw the Attorney General and
stated our position to him. Submitted
the question Of the legality Of our paying
q fee or commission to broker to place
the bonds for us in the accompanying
and have his answer attached.
We saw Mr.. Denkins of the Interstate

As NEAR As IT GETS TO FACTS.
1e quote from The Item /:

We quote from The Item:
The Newlands bill ALWAYS included
'all the essential elements ofthe Ransdell
BILL"
That is as near as The Item ever
gets to the facts in its news or its
local columns.
The Newlands bill, as it stands
now, treats the Mississippi river
fairly. But Senator Ransdell is re-
sponsible for the element of fairness
which has been incorporated in it.
Under the original bill every dol
lar appropriated to the river had a
string tied to it. Every dollar could
have been diverted to Mr.. Maxwell's
western irrigation projects.
But Senator Ransdell dictated
and Senator Newlands had no alter
nate but to accept-such changes in
its language as make such diversion
now impossible.
While The Item and Mr.. Max
wells publicity bureau were telling
the people of Louisiana that if the
Newlands bill was passed state and
local taxation for levee purposes
would cease and Uncle Sam would
undertake to foot all bills, Mr.. Rams
dell's pitiless scrutiny of the bill it.
self brought out the fact that not a
dollar might come to Louisiana I'M
til it was matched with dollar
from her own pockets.
And Senator Ransdell dictated
and Senator Newlands had no alter
native but to accept-such changes
in its language as now make the bill
provide in letter what The Item and
Mr.. Maxwell's publicity bureau
falsely represent it to embrace in
spirit.
The Item shows no abatement of
its abuse of Mr.. Ransdell nor ridi-
Guile Of his bill. But the single and
unadorned fact is that the incorpor-
alton Of the Ransdell bill into the
Newlands bill gives the latter its
chief claim to serious consideration.
The Mississippi river is the pack
horse which the advocates of the
Newlands bill have selected to carry
the land reclamation and irrigation
schemes which Mr.. Maxwell and
the interests he represent are seeking
to have Congress authorize.-New
Orleans States.
