Big Reclamation Bill
Is Passed By Congress

WASHINGTON, Dec, 19.-Chair-
mar McNary Of the senate committee
on irrigation made a favorable report
on a bill for Senator Jones of Wash
ington to authorize the expenditure of
$3.50, 100000 for reclamation.
Reclamation work is coming to a
standstill says the report, because of
a decrease in receipts from sales of
public lands, which amounted to
10000 900 nine years ago, but were
less than 100000 last year.
Satisfactory repayments from exist
ing projects are pointed out, and

ment has added such wealth and

Demands Impeachment

A strong demand has set in for the removal of Will
liam Bauchop Wilson, Secretary Of the Department of
Labor, because of startling disclosures showing official
lenicncy toward alien anarchists and other plotters
against the government. Ole Hanson, late mayor Of
Seattle, who is engaged in a vigorous Americanization
campaign, is calling for Secretary Wilson's ~impeach-
ment. He bases this demand upon facts brought to
light in the Ellis Island investigation. Frederick c. Howe,
who resigned his post as immigration commissioner
under fire, after hundreds of dangerous aliens had been
turned loose, and who was on terms of friendship with
Emma Goldman, as revealed by a letter in his files, tes-
titled that he invariably acted under orders from Wash
ington. 1t is charged that the entire immigration serv-
ice has been honeycombed with Socialism and domi-
mated by Socialists. Hence the insistcnce upon a COM
plete change and the removal of Secretary Wilson as
head of the department.
