the estimated cost as of today, or a
total of $12S,130,000 That is still $1,000

For some unexplained reason, the
Bureau insists that they intend to con-
struct the Marias Project to irrigate
l27, 900 acres, in spite of the fact that
about $4,000 acres of this won a court
action to be excluded from the Marias
Irrigation District.
The spending of millions of dollars
in an attempt to force irrigation upon
lands that positively refuse to accept
it, would seem to be absurd, entirely
without justification, and a waste of
government money. 1t may well be

Landlords Getting Most OF
Our Point " Help
BY JOHN McGUFFEY, Roman

In previous article it has been point
ed out that a feudalistic landlord Sys-
tenn and colonial imperialism are the
causes for the poverty and hunger in
the backward countries and it is this
poverty that is the driving force behind
revolutions of our world
During the past three years our of
ficials from the President down, have
been telling US how they were going
to use their Point " program to in
crease production and raise the stand
ard of living of these backward peo-
pies. They have said they would send
them our know how, county agents,
improved machinery, improved vari-
cites of seed and fertilizer These
things would do the job, but let us re-
member that the landlords in most of
these countries own the land and get
from so tc rs per cent of the product
Hence of course, it follows that it's
the landlord who is getting most of
our help. l used to hear it said that
if an Irishman got ambitious and i'm
proved his place, the landlord or his
agent, came along and raised the rent

An Engineer Comments
Further On Marias Project
BY f. ]. PARKINSON. Great Falls

BY E. J. PARKINSON, Great Falls
Consulting Irrigation Engineer
Editor, The Peoples Voice:
Your issue of January IS carried a
letter by Mr. X. F. Vernon, regional di-
rector, Bureau of Reclamation, correct
ing an error in his letter published in
The Peoples Voice on the previous No
vember Is. His original statement said
that the estimated cost of the Lower
Marias Unit irrigation project was S64,-
065,000 based on prices of January l.
1871. He now states that that was
typographical error and it should have
read based on prices of January 1,
1949".
What the project could have been
built for January /, 1949 a year and
one half before the Korean war was
started, and what it could be built for
January l, 1852, three years later, is an
entirely different matter and we are
still in the dark as to what the cost
might be today. However it would ap-
pear that Mr.. Vernon and the Bureau
are willing that I make the estimate
for them and save them the trouble
They undoubtedly have great conf
1ence in my ability to do so, because,
although The Peoples Voice has pub
ished columns of my figures on the
subject in the past year, not a single
figure has ever been contradicted Now

figured that he could use the tractors
on his estate and dispense with the
peasants. In desperation the peasants
threw themselves down in front of the
