LAND RECLAMATION
AIDS EAST, HE SAYS
J. Addison Smith Shows How
Western Development Pro-
duces Prosperity.

WASHINGTON, April s. Relation OF
Western reclamation to the industries
OF the East and other widespread phases
OF the development Of air and swamp
lands were discussed at dinner given
tonight by the Western States Reclama-
tion Association. Members of Congress.
Government officials and representatives
of commerce attended. but there was
no formal speechmaking.
Inclusion of drainage In the Smith
McNary bill recently reported to Con-
gress was widely discussed. J. Addison
In statement said reclamation is still
In its infancy. yet the efforts so far
have resulted In produaizg food values
of $150.0o0.0o0 annually.
"The reclamation projects tend to
produce prosperity and relieve unem-
ployment throughout the entire coun-
try" Mr.. Smiths statement continued.
Tho data furnished by many Western
towns almost wholly supported by re-
claimed lands prove conclusively that
lne manuIacturerS OF the East find the
best possible market In the reclaimed
districts. Clothing manufactured
In the New England and Atlantic States
and annually shipped to the irrigated
districts of the West is greater in value
than the automobiles marketed in those
sections.
The United States. with its 10000, 900
acres OF arid land in the West. It's So.-
100000 acres OF swamp land, mainly in
the northern middle West. lower Attain
tic and Gulf States. could with Govern
mental assistance in financing reclaim
larger areas within the next twenty
years than any other country in the
world. These lands when reclaimed

the personnel for very obvious reasons.
Consequently they have failed to d4s-
play any enthusiasm over the plans OF
the President for reorganizing the
Government on business basis in
stead of conducting IT as political
enterprise. Predictions that the recon-
mendations Of the reorganization COM
mission will be ignored are frequently
made. and there are apparently very
good reasons to justify them.
Government Clerks Alarmed.
Government clerks, alarmed over the
reports that wholesale removals in all
departments are to follow those al
ready made. unanimously assert that
the real motive back of the assault on
the civil service is solely partisan.
The attitude of Senators and Repre-
sentatives of President Harding's party
synchronize5 with the clerks view Of
the matter.
The chief difference is that while
the clerks denounce it as raid on
the civil service" the practical politi-
clans commend 1t. Few, If any of the
leaders Of the Presidents party in and
out of Congress make any attempt to
conceal their ambition to reclaim from
the Democrats still holding office as
many Jobs as they can secure for their
constituents. Much Of the time of the
President during the last thirteen
months has been taken up by Senators.
Representatives and outside leaders
urging their claims for the spoils OF
political victory. The President prob
ably has had much more difficulty in
this respect than his predecessor. Mr..
Wilson.
1t is quite probable that some of the
most embarrassing problems which
have confronted President Harding
actually had their origin in disputes
over patronage. Senators and Repre-
sentatives aggrieved over the refusal
of the President to make drastic
changes in the public service for their
political benefit have carried their re-
sentiment to opposing recommended
tons made by him regarding public
affairs which should not be affected by
partisan differences.
BesieGed by Job Hunters.
When President Harding began his
term Attorney-General Daugherty and
Postmaster General Hays were re-
garded as the "official distributors Of
patronage" Because of his close per-
sonal relations with the President and
his own activities as a practical politi-
clan the Attorney-General was the
target for all sorts of appeals for
recognition.
AS Mr.. Hays Wis chairman of the
National Republican Committee and
probably contributed much to the sue
cess of the Republican party in the
election of 1920, he, too, was besieged
by job hunters.
Mr.. Daugherty and Mr.. Hays made

announced yesterday.

financed out of funds already collected
and forwarded to Louvain. Authority
TO go ahead with the building was given
in response To a report from Mgr.
Ladeuze, rector OF the university, who
told of the great difficulties experienced
in housing the books which. in ac-
cordance with the terms Of peace. are
arriving from German. and also. as
gifts from all parts OF the world.

chief concern was to perform salts
facsorily tho functions of their re-
spective offices. Politicians soon tired
of seeking their aid. They then pro-
ceeoed to carry their demands and
cemplaists to the White House and to
take every advantage of the affability
Of the President. When he refused
their demands, Senator's and Repre-
sentatives who had failed to place
their henc.men into offices held by
Democratic officials, inaugurated 4
mild system of "hazing."
They resorted to the plan Of OBJ
structing legislation requested by the
President or harassing him in other
ways. Although there is not tire
slightest justification for the claims
of some of these legislative "hazers'
that they have finally brought the
President to terms" some Congress
members hail the removal Of Engrav-
ing and Printing Bureau employees
as a victory for practical politics.
They manifest little or no concern re-
garding the ethical features of the
civil service law, and a few of them
do not hesitate to declare that "a

Civil Service League Acts.
Defenders of the civil service are
manifesting the keenest interest in
the removal of tie engraving and
printing employees in the same line.
The Civil Service Reform League has
addressed letter to President Har-
ding and Secretary Mellon protesting
against the removal of the engraving
employees.
1t was said at the White House and
the Treasury Department that no re-
ply has been made to the letter of the
league, but that one will shortly give
reasons for the curtailment in the Bu-
reau of Engraving and Printing.
The perturbation of Government
clerks was further increased to day
by the announcement of a shutdown
of the Bureau of Engraving and Print
ing for a week. The report, which
greatly excited Federal employees gem
orally, that the closing of the depart
ment would result in a drastic cut of
employees, was denied by Assistant
Secretary of the Treasury Wadsworth.
Mr.. Wadsworth said the shutdown
was for the purpose of making an in
ventory Of stock in the department, in
accordance with the custom which
has been followed for several years
The divisions to be closed while this is
being made are the plate and surface

an aggregate Of 1000 of the 5000
hands.
It Is not denied however. that "the
stocktaking" may result in a substan-
tial decrease in the number of en-
ployees in the department. justified by
the decrease in the demand for Gov
ernment bonds and stamps.
