Yuma Reimbursement Item
OF $685., 600 in Deficiency
Bill, Declares Cameron
Especial to Douglas Dispatch)


PHOENIX, June Ex-senator Ralph
Fl. Cameron has telegraphed informa-
ton here that Representative Martin
B. Madden chairman of house commit
tee on appropriations, has given as
surances that the $6S5,OO Yuma reim-
bursement item will be included in
the second deficiency bill now being
drafted by congress. Senator Cam
eron made public the assurance imme-
diately after a conference which he
had with Representative Madden
The reimbursement had previously
received the approval of tne directoc
of the bureau of the budget and OF
President Coolidge. 1T is conceded
that Representative Madden's assur-
ance makes the reimbursement certain.
About $4,000 acres of irrigation
project lands in the Yuma district will
be affected by the reimbursement to
the extent of about $40 an acre. The
money was originally paid from fed
eral reclamation funds for the opera
tion and maintenance of Colorado river
front work and the levee system aG..
jacent to the project lands, with tho
expectancy that the sum would bs
charged against river and harbor
funds. Instead the amount was charg-
ed against the landholders on the.
project.
The matter of the reimbursement has
been before congress at various times
during recent years. The 68th con-
gress last year during the closing
days of it's sessions, finally approved
the reimbursement by passing a meas
ure proposed by Senator Cameron after
a long fight waged by him in removing
number of obstacles in the house of
representatives as well as in the SEM

More Truth Than Poetry
BY JAMES j. MONTAGUE
THE TENT CATERP1LLAR

THE TENT CATERPILLAR
Since time which runnetn out of mind
the butterflies and moths and millers
Have left their tiny eggs behind
Which turned in spring to cater
pillars. q
These ugly things gnawed trees and
plants
AS soon as they had burst their
tether,
But they, like wasps, and gnats and
ants
Were always subject to the weather.
Let but there be an April frost
Which comes when it is least ex-
pected
And these i'll favored worms were lost
For they weak and unprotected.
Let but torrential rain pour down
Upon them as they took their slum-
bers.
Upon the boughs, and they would
drown
Or almost drown, in myriad numbers.
But evolution, which is yet
Mans guide, philosopher and teacher
Apparently does not forget
The simplest, smallest, meanest crea-
tuEe. !tn
At its behest they now build tents
Beneath whose rain proof, cob-web
shelter,
When nights turn cool or clouds grow
dense
The rascals hurry, helter-skelter.
Today with arsenate of lead
The caterpillar I've been batting,
And in the hope to find him dead
I stand beneath the fruit tree wait
ing.
But as the breeze blows to and fro
The filmy cottage that he rocks in
He may, parhaps, for all know
Be tossing off an anti-toxin!
