Funds Approval

Favorable action on restored ap-
preparations for Pacific Northwest
development projects was predict
ed this week by Senator Mitchell.
Project funds requested in the In
terror Appropriation bill were
slashed in the House but were re-
stored in several cases by the
Senate Appropriation Committee
before the bill went before the
Senate.
Senator Mitchell and other mem
bers of the Washington state con-
pressional delegation pointed out
that delay on the Columbia Basin
Project and the Roza division OF
the Yakima project would be false
economy. Reduction of these
funds would be felt chiefly in the
delay of veterans settlement on
both public and private lands.
