the Federal Government had
adopted suggestions originally pre-
sented two years ago by Governor
Alfred M. Landon, of Kansas.

Governor Landon for specific rec
concentrations on drought RELIEF,

ment declared, he will be pre-
pared to resubmit and again urge
his original plans, which the Fed
eral Government had seemed to
consider favorably, but has never
acted upon.
The statement declared Gov
ernor Landon'S plan, calling for
Joint State and Federal action to
overcome water shortage and eff
fects of drought conditions, was
first presented to Federal relief
officials at Topeka on June 16,
1884.
This plan, the statement ex-
explained, dealt only with Kan
sas, but almost a year later Gov
ernor Landon presented a similar
but enlarged program for t h e
Great Plains area to the National
Rivers and HarborS Congress.
Sought Hopkins Aid
Governor Landon's detailed
water storage program for Kan
Sas which had been presented to
Relief Administrator Harry l..
Hopkins, called for an expenditure
of one hundred fifty-Seven million
seven hundred thousand dollars,
proposed the creation of $4,000
farm ponds for storage of water
and prevention of soil erosion, 200
lakes of 200 acres surface each, 20
storage dams and 100 overflow
dams.
