MT. Hanna and Mr Jones, should name three others. whether engineers or not, and out of those three others, the Sec retary of the Interior was to select one to be the third member of this To- cal cost review board. Three were nom mated, and of those, Prof. Taylor, the Dean of the University of Texas, was selected; so that this commission con- sisted of Mir F. w. Hanna, represent ing the government; MT. Jones, repre- senting the Salt River Valley Water Users Association; and Prof. Taylor, the third man selected as practically an umpire.
 Board Reports in Detail.
 They came here and they made a close investigation of every item of the cost of this project. It occupies thou sands of typewriter pages. I had it briefed. compiled, boiled down to the simplest terms that it could be boiled down, and there it is. You can imagine what the original must be if that big book lying before me is simply an in- dex to it.

They had been charged with that business, 10 deter mine what ought to be the cost of this project. l am not going to read you all of this tonight But Prof Taylor and i Mir. Jones recommended a deduction from the total cost, after giving us credit for certain things that have ] been done-recommended a reduction oi S3,523, S6s.56 - practically s3,600, ,000.0t IS what was recommended; and Mir Hanna, the representative of the gov ernment, recommended a reduction o s546. .0OO. .00-nearly three million dollars difference between the three gentlemen The matter then went to q central cos review board; and that central cost re view board would not agree with MT Hanna or with Mir Jones or Prof. Fay lor singly two by two, or in the az gregate of the three. and recommendec a reduction of $3s2. .O00.O0 and so report s.a

An Astonishing Sequel.

It has been suggested time and again by the Department of the Interior that this project was to be declared open, and that the cost would be fixed. and while that has not come to us officially II has come from those officers who, when they do append their signatures 10 d paper in a formal way, makes it official. that not only would the Re- claamtion commission not accept the recommendation of Prof Taylor and Mir Jones of a reduction of three mil lions and half; nor would they accept the recommendation of Mir Hanna of six hundred and fifty some thousand dollars. they would not accept the rec ommendation of the central cost review board of an abatement of three hundred and eighty two thousand dollars They rejected all of them. and added four dollars an acre to make it good for us. don't know just why. but they did of course We protested. and We have protested. and we are continuing to protest

Protesting at Washington.

Last May We secured a hearing in Washington before the commission. We went before the commission know to us. but we had 10 go, because if we dicn't and went to the secretary, the secretary would refer us back to the commission. There was no misunder- standing between the commission and the representatives Of the Salt River Valley Water Users Association. We knew that they would not make the abatement We there appeared and for a number of days we discussed the question pro and con. We had our engineer there. We had our report, item by item. a bill of particulars of every item that We think we can sus- tain by the testimony and the judg- ment of those engineers. and finally at the end. notwithstanding the declara- ton of their legal advisers. that under the law not one dollar could be abated, they did abate S3S2. .00000.
 Before the Secretary.
 We were not satisfied with that, and we told them we would not be satisfied with that and we went 10 the Secre- tary of the Interior. and the Secretary of the Interior, with most considerate , attention, gave us a long hearing, and 1 finally said, Present to me personally a brief" l came home. and I prepared | that brief. and if l did write it, I will l say that it is a pretty good one. It is now lodged with the Secretary of the i interior. and l don't know what tho ruling may be. 1 am satisfied from all l have heard that it is not going tC be satisfactory to us, and am perfect. ly satisfied that l am going to advise the Salt River Valley Water Users As. siciation not to accept the decision oi the Secretary of the Interior.
