3o-foot deep dredging project that has already been completed by the State of Connecticut and paid for. As l said, our part of the cooperative plan is finished.
 "The engineers report shows what it will cost for the government to complete the project which it agreed to so far as any department can agree to anything in the absence of < distinct congressional pledge. Our project was completed and the gov- ernment part of it was that they would dredge to 33 feet. The gov ernments depth is 2 feet less than
 ours from the mouth of the harbor up to this wharf.
 'It is estimated by the engineer of
 the War Department that to con- struct this channel either 600 or 1000 feet wide-I have not the docu- ment before me at this minute-and
 I should say perhaps 2 miles long ! would cost s330,OOO and it would take two years to complete that dredging project. The government engineers recommend that $170,O0O be appropriated the fire year. which item the bill carries and the $780, 900, if that is the difference, the following year.
 If this is passed now, it will be seen that having our project com- p1eted and paying interest on the bonds which the state issued to pay for it we have to wait now two years if the government starts the project at this time."
 May I ask the senator if the | million dollars upon the project is already expended?' said Senator Cur | tis of Kansas.
 ITO be perfectly accurate about it, l Brandegee answered "as is shown by
 the telegram which appears in the | Record in the proceedings of the house of representatives, there has
 actually been spent sS00.00O now out of the million dollars, leaving s200,- ! 900, which they are going to put on
