Murray Asked
About Project
Says Appropriations
Cut Might Delay
Yeuowtuil Dam

John J.. Harris this week sent
the Tribune Herald three let
tiers concerning the recent ap-
preparations cut in the Enterior
department and its effect on
the construction of the Yellow
tail dam.
Mr.. Harris wrote John Wat
tawa, Washington attorney for
the Big Horn Dam association,
partially as follows:
49,. It might be well to
learn from Senator Murray
what this means and to lend
his further effort to see that
our project is not set back due
to these cuts in he appropria-
lions. You will note that they
specify power developments.
Our project is greatest in con-
serving flood and sediment
control, and therefore should
not be curtailed because of its
great power potentialities."
Mr.. Wattawa sent Mr.. Harris
letter and the newspaper clip
PAAA6o 4IC C1IC1OSSu 10 O6IldCO
Murray, and under date of May
IA, received the following reply:
Dear Mr.. Wattawa:
Thank you for your letter of
May 10 with enclosed clippings
and letter from John J. Har-
ris. The action the House has
taken In cutting the Interior
department appropriations is
disturbing to all of us. I do
feel confident that we can re-
store the full appropriation in
the Senate, but there will be
some question of holding it in
the conference committee. As
understand it, the cut that has
been made will not completely
stop the work on he Big Horn,
but might we'll delay it.
II am keeping in close touch
with the situttion and will dc
my best to have the full budget
restored"
