NEWLANDS FLOOD
CONTROL FIGHT ON
Nevada Senator Refuses to
Have His Plan Attached to
River and Harbor Bill.
''PoRk BARREL" HIS REASON
Doesn't Want His Scheme
Tackled on to Such Legisla-
ton, He Declares.
"PoRK BARREL" HIS REASON

Convinced that the disclosures con-
corning the extravagances Of the pro-
posed river and harbor appropriation
bill have effectively branded that meas
ure as pork barrel" legislation. Sena-
tor Newlands of Nevada Is understood
TO have refused at a conference yes
tsrday at the White House with Presi-
dent Wilson, Secretary Of War Baker.
and Senator Fletcher Of Florida, to per-
nit his scheme for the scientific de-
velopment Of Federal flood control to
be tackled onto the river and harbor
bill as an amendment
In a statement today Senator New
lands, who is Democrat, did not hesi-
tate to disclose the reasons for his
opposition. He said:
why He Is Opposed.
81 am opposed to having the so-called
'Newlands' plan of co-ordinating all
Of the machinery for flood investiga-
river and harbor bill.
in the first place. mine is not pri-
marily a question of navigation, but
rather one of controlling the flood
waters at their source. or Of using them
to create and not destroy wealth.
Moreover. have consistently op-
posed the Incorporation OF my plans in
the river and barber bill for the rea-
son that do not wish 1t to become
a part Of dIscredIted system Of ap-
preparations. / want no measure in
which have a deep interest to be as
as pork barrel legislation"
Calls for COmmIssIon.
The Newlands plan calls for the
creation OF a Government commission
Of experts who would initiate all Fed
eraI river improvement work on the
basis of the general needs of the ma
ton. This commission would recon.
mend appropriations to Congress and
direct the expenditure of the money
Senator Newlands believes that
millions OF dollars could be saved to
the Government annually IL this plan
were substituted for the present
method, under which each individual
congressman seeks an appropriation
for river work in his particular dis
trict, and by reason which there is a
practice of log rolling" that results
in enormous extravagances.
Action Significant.
The refusal of Senator NewIands to
permit this plan to be ASSOCIATED with
the river and harbor bill as an
amendment is significant in showing
the extent to which Democrats gener-
ally are worried over the pork bar
rer' disclosures.
Senator Fletcher, who is a stong de-
fender of the river and harbor bill,
however, is insistent that the two
matters be Joined, IL being understood,
of course, that the adoption of the
Newlands plan as an amendment to
the appropriation bill would not inter
fere with Congress going ahead this
year appropriating the vast sums
called for under the old system.
In other words, the advocates of
pork" appear to want the Newlands |
plan hooked up with the river and |
harbor bill as a means of saving the |
latter from defeat in Congress or a |
veto by the President.

More Work Each Hour

Have you not often heard
man remark that he wished
there were more hours in a
day so he could accomplish
more?
While you cannot put more
hours into the day, you can
increase your working capac-
ity by wearing glasses that
will permit your eyes to do
maximum amount of work
with a minimum expenditure
of energy.
Let us grind for you a pair
of toric lenses which not only
give the wide angle vision OF
the natural eye. but do away
with those irritating reflec-
tions from the rear surfaces
which occur with ordinary
lenses and unnecessarily tire
the eyes.
