FINANCE AND MARKETS

NEW YORK, Feb. 5.-Coppers were the issues around which todays' dull and irregular securities market re- velved, American Smelling making a gross decline of 61a points on an nouncement of a reduction in the quar- terly dividend from l F to per cent.
 This action occasioned some surprise. Kindred stocks were heavy, evidently in the belief that returns to charehold CTS are likely to suffer similar revision, together with the widely recognized fact that prevailing conditions in the metal industry are uncertain, at best.
 In the main, however, the market seemed disposed to throw off some of it's recent heaviness and short cover ing was again impelled in such leaders as United States teel, shipping, tobac- cos, distiIling, food and utility issues, at extreme gains of to points.
 Oils and motors offered better resist ance to pressure and were firm. Sales amounted to 375,000 shares.
 A firmer tone ruled for time and call funds, the latter rising to five per cent in the final hour

IRRIGATION SYSTEM
 ON COLORADO RIVER { GETS SURVEY MONEY

The following lf-explanatory let ter was received yesterday by County Treasurer Webb from Representative Carl Hayden:
 House of Representatives
 Washington, D. C., Feb. l, 1919. Hon. Sam r. Webb,
 Phoenix, Arizona
 Dear Sir:
 I am in receipt of your letter of January 1S, and am glad to advise you that I have succeeded in having an item included in the Indian appropria- tion bill which passed the house on January 9. which authorizes an ex- penditure of $209.000 on the Colorado river Indian reservation.
 Of this fund. $75,000 is for the pur- pose of conducting surveys and prepar- ing plans and estimates for complete irrigation system to supply water to lands near Parker. l am very anxious to have this work done so that in case congress makes appropriations for new irrigation projects that the Parker project may be considered.
 I enclose herewith a copy of a bill introduced by Mir. Byrnes of South Carolina. which seeks to appropriate $100.000,000 for the reclamation of waste lands. This bill was introduced at the request of Secretary Lana and Mir. Byrnes hopes to have it included in the sundry civil appropriation bill.
 The secretary of the interior has been doing his best to convince the country and congress that it is neces- sary to provide work and homes for our returning soldiers. Heretofore, 'the efforts of the interior department have been confined to the reclamation of arid lands, but in order to get sup port for his plans. Secretary Lane has included the drainage of swamp lands and the clearing of cut-over timber lands. Opposition to congressional appropriations for this purpose has de- Veloped on the part of the grange and other organizations of eastern farmers who fear that prices of agricultural products will be reduced by the over production of crops on these new lands. A number of farm journals published in the east are attacking the scheme on that ground.
 I am hopeful however, that it will be possible to overcome this opposi- tion and that Secretary Lanes plan can be inaugurated in the near future although in the beginning, We may not be able to give him as much money as he should have to accomplish the most beneficial results. Whatever money is appropriated must be in a lump sum- because if one project is named, every other project will ask to be included In other words, we will have to follow the method adopted in case of the rec lamation fund, and leave it to the dis cretion of the secretary of the interior 10 select the most feasible projects upon which to begin construction.
 The fact that the Colorado river h. dian reservation is under the jurisdic- tion of the bureau of Indian affairs, . branch of the department of the in. terior, and that investigations are be- ing made as to the feasibility of th' project. makes it almost certain tha Secretary Lane will give consideration to irrigation of these lands in tn, event that he is given sufficient fund, to undertake new reclamation project. in the west.
 With best wishes I am
 Yours very sincerely,
 CARL HAYDEN.
