Finley Puts Waste
On Dom Projects at
Millions of Dollars

BY the Associated Press.
CHICAGO, March 27.-William L.
Finley of Portland, Greg, vice presi-
dent Of the Izaak Walton League of
America, accused Government off,
cials today of mismanagement of
the Nations water resources.
Mr. Finley made the accusation in
an address before the leagues goth
annual meeting in which he reviewed
activities OF Government irrigation
Of arid Western lands, which, he
said. has resulted in tremendous
losses to taxpayers. He charged work
on the Shasta and Friant Dams or
the Sacramento River in California
was an example.
ut was not until both dams had
been under construction for more
than two years" he asserted, that
1t was discovered that because of the
spongy nature of the intervening
delta county, it would be impossible
TO build a canal for the purpose Of
carrying water from the Sacramento
to the San Joaquin.
"A dirt ditch would not hold
water, and a concrete lined canal
would sink out of sight. After the
nightmare, the engineers of the
Bureau OF Reclamation are now
surveying for two dam sites on the
American River with the purpose of
getting water down to the South.
All they need now is a few more
hundred million dollars from tax
payers to make up for their mis-
takes"
Mr.. Finley declared Government
high dam projects on California
and Oregon rivers were destroying
valuable salmon fishery resources of
the West Coast.
