Washington, May 12 Pl-The re- lation of the states the federal gov ernment and business ga ined the attention today of the delegates at tending the annual convention ot the United States Chamber of Com mcrce, with Governor Ritchie of Maryland, as the principal speaker
 A two-fold solution of the com plaint of too much government in business was offered by Governor Ritchie in his prepared address with the suggestion to put more business into government and more self gov ernmcnt into business"
 By developing self-government and so managing to throw off tho incubus of excessive government in- tarfcrence and regulation" he said. "husiness can solve many problems which men now strive 10 solve through the ballot.
 "Govornmant is too complex and too alive with partisan feeling to handle many questions that business could handle better. We are the greatest nation in the world, but our governments, both state and nation all do not reflect our business lead ership. Here waste and extrava- eance and inNfficiency and indiffor- ence flourish 10 m extent that husi- ness itself would not endure for a moment. f business uns"lflshly recognized it's political obligation az it should. it would be the one force in the state that could measurably cure these evils"

DIR. Hubert Work, Secretary Of the
Interior, and DR.. Elwood Mead, com.
missioner Of reclamation, were hung
in efiixy here last night by an angry
group of farmers and citizens who
blame them for failure of the Govern.
ment to supply the irrigated North
Platte Valley with needed water from
the Government project.
The two efhgies were left danglinA
in front Of the ONCE Of the Water
Users Association. which Is the cen.
tral organization Of the North Platte
Valley farmers who are now seeking
water.
One of the effigies had but one arm
with a sign, "Df. Elwood Mead" at.

arm. The other efigy was marked
"Dr. Work." This sign was found on
that effigy:
For breaking his word and depriv.
ing a project of water
The hanging Of the efiigies of the
two Washington ofhcials is the first
intimation Of violence or drastic &C.

started, but those conversant with
the situation fear that unless relief

water to deltnquents until all past
dues were paid or until notes were
given. This the farmers decline to
do, claiming the Government should
furnish the water until all irrigated
lands are reclassifled according to
terms of the omnibus water bill,
recently signed by President Coolidge,
making provision for a downward re.
adjustment Of about $23 3,000,0 900 con-
struction and other charges levied
against 19 Western reclamation prof.
ects.
The farmers claim Mr.. Work agreed
to this delay in payment, only to
change his mind and demand pay
mont Of delinquent dues.
The North Platte Valley project is
one OF the largest in the world, pro-
viding drought insurance for $4,000
farms through 1900 irrigation canals
and bitches. The controlling feature
Of the project is the Pathfinder dam
located 800 miles in the interior of
Wyoming, impounding 1.025 900 acre
feet Of water.
Secretary Work said today that tele-
grams were sent from the Interior
Department several days ago to the
managers Of the irrigation districts In
the North Platte project providing
methods for occupants Of the lands
to meet their water payments and
get water from the Government.
II these kilograms were read, he
said, he was at loss to understand
the indignation of the farmers who
had burned himself and Reclamation
Commissioner Mead In enigy.
Many of the occupants on the prof
ect. he said, were long in arrears
on their payments, with the result
that the water had not been turned
on this Spring. Under the law. he
declared, there was no other course
for the Government to pursue, but an
arrangement for the payment Of the
arrears was worked out at the depart.
ment with representatives from the
project.
