"A year ago the total east coast

dropped sharply to a low point of
25.5 per cent for the week ending

EASTERN BLOC IN CONGRESS
AGAIN STROGARMS WEST

4 Again a self-centered bloc in congress
M-a strong, dominating bloc-arbitrarlly

I. not navigable and again the west has
$ been dealt a blow The shadow of the
8 "pork barrel" remains. Indeed it is more
) than a shadow for this self-same eastern
= proup has throttled the west in its great
: est hope for future growth and prosper,
3 @ty-reclamation of land through use OF
Z water. And while the west must wait,
> the old river and harbor grab seems to be
2 in again.
In the latest incident. however, the
west has not presented a solid front and
this reveals sectional jealouses. This
spirit of dog in the manger" or what
ever it is. also has shown itself and Is
showing itself in the Colorado river wa
ter pact with Mexico.
But getting back to the navigable
stream matter. Recently Representative
Robinson Of Utah presented an amend
ment that would have safeguarded to a
big extent the future of reclamation.
This amendment set out: in connection
with dams or works authorized by this
act. anv use of the waters of any stream
or tributary thereof, having its source
.west of the ninety-seventh meridian,
shall he subordinate to and shall not IN
4e1fp~a with use west of the ninety-seV-
.enth meridian of such waters for domes,
tic use. irrigation mining or industrial
purposes whenever established under
state law"
The amendment was we'll on its wav to
passage when administration leaders had
.the vote put off "a hours In that time
sufficient votes were rallied to defeat 1t
and a representative from Oregon had
much to do with that defeat. The amend
ment was opposed by navigation inter
ests Oregon has access to at least two
large navigable rivers. Its arid area com
paratively is small when matched with
the tremendous inland states which must
depend upon water in abundance for lr-
rigation and industrial uses.
And so the river and harbors bill goes
on its way, minus this protective clause
and rivulets may be declared navigable.
Even the New river might be catalogued
that way if the 'navigationists' rule.
