be made on 10-year, $50 million

from a destructive giant to pro-
ductive force.

adjournment. A number of senator's
Immediately threw their support
behind the Presidents proposal.
In general, the construction pro-
gram as outlined by Mr.. Truman
would provide a coordinated system
of storage reservoirs in all the ma

sippi, coupled with levees, flood
walls and diversion channels to pro-
tect cities, towns and farms in
those basins.
Also, he proposed that soil con-

Despite this outlook for sugar

States will obtain its sugar from
traditional suppliers like Cuba, Ha-
waii, Puerto Rico and the Virgin
