The State Should Have An Agency Ready to Cooperate
With the Federal Government in Reclamation Projects

n EopIsE generally Do not know much about the
Lane plan " soldier settlement, ~ II has be-
come generally known. The secretary Of the
interior was late IA beginning his propaganda IN
behalf Of his scheme of reclamation and employ
mrnt Of returned soldiers combined. The country
has learned little about H. The fact remains that
q great deal OF preliminary work has been done IN
the bureaus Of The interior department, and the
plan as a whole u far more practical than many
who have given i superficial attention are willing
20 admit.
Il Is doubtful whether the Lane plan win be
adopted BY this coma scsa Certainly the next con-
rrcas will be .kely 20 make importhnt changes in
II. But a. the Herald pointed out some time ago.
the Lame plan viii be the starting point from which
viii be worked cut The new reclamation program
Of this nation. and BY which 250.OoO,o0O acres Of
now idle land win be made productive IN one Of a
lumber ~ WAYS.
Secretary Lame Is undoubtedly right when he
says that thc states must cooperate with the fed
cral government IN working out the broader scheme
Of reclamation. The federal government cannot
work 4 out successfully alone, any more than
could one Of the staics work ont one o. the huge
undertakings now IN prospect. ID must be cooper
alton oithc closest and most practical character.
II would be manifestly foolish for New Mexico
10 - ahead and adopt a Legislation providing for
,o-operation with The federal government in recla.
nation plans which may never be carried QUE We
,nnnoi prepare for active cooperation ON the Lane
plan. Congress has not approved IL and probably
The present congress VIII not approve Il.
On the other hand, the next congress will un-
dyabtedly adopt some general reclamation plan IN
which the 60 cooperation Of the states will be invited.
n We fail 70 make any provision for this co-opera-
tion We viii have two alternatives before "a; q spe-
riai session Of the Legislature, when the federal Gull
does cepf, or VI viii he left behind two years IN
Tie forward march Of the west.
New Mexico cannot afford 10 lose any chance for
participation IN any general reclamation program.
We cannof afford 70 be behind one day 10 getting
into the midst Of any national plan for the use Of
returned soldiers in reclamation work, or IN any
plan Tor their intelligent colonization. We should
make some provision for the cooperation which
may be necessary, when the program Of the national
government assumes definite shape.

Shu"tIE. IF dwelling accommodations

This fact is doubtless responsible in

the influence Of the war. Millions have

should do their utmost TO make 1t easy
for those who do not own homes to real

And what Is needed for that? Work
ers must be paid such wages as TO en-
abba them, with reasonable industry and
thrift, to own modest homes There
must be no profiteering on the home
seeker. There must be municipal pro-
lection for this investment. Add to this
a reasonable exemption from taxation
on the homo. and more than half the
task will have been accomplished.
Consider these propositions.
Higher wages mean greater industrial
efficiency in production because high

low-paid one, other conditions being
equal: higher wages mean greater az

THE WEST LIBERTY NORMAL

In another column Of the Intelligence
cr today appears communication from
Acting Presidept c. T. Borgess. Of the
West Liberty Normal school. Mr.. Bog
cess calls attention TO the physical de-
velopment Of the plant OF the normal
school. and to the features which have
been added TO the school life during tho
past few years. 1t is gratifying to note
that class OF thirty or more will
graduate in 1920. one of the largest
classes that West Liberty has ever
turned out. Nevertheless. the delay in
the appointment Of principal. and in
the creation OF permanent working
organization. cannot fail to affect tho
usefulness and prestige of the school.
The In1elligenccr. moreover. believes
this delay 10 be unnecessary. 1t IS no
very profound secret that influential
persons in the state Of West Virginia
have. at times, set themselves against
, the entire normal school system. and
particularly. against the smaller nor
NAL schools. The friends OF West Lib
