OPPOSE FLOOD BILL
President Said To Regard It As Most "EXtortionate" Measure Of Whole Administrator.

Washington. April 17 Rt-Presi- dent Coolidge regards the pending flood control bill as the most extor. tionate measure that has passed any branch Of congress since he has been president.
 The president believes that neither the senate nor the senate com- mittee was acquainted with it's rami- tications and he is surprised that the measure passed the senate with to little discussion.
 The president attributes the rais- ing of the administration bill from approximately 1200.oo0,o0O to $l.- 4oo.00o.0o0 largely to agitation by lumber interests.
 While not wishing the government to take over lands Of lumber com- panies without just compensation the president believes the opportu- nity should not be seized to involve the government in large damages uy obtaining land to carry out the flood relief proposals.
