Watershed Protection
The Watershed Act" Williams said,
"aims at watershed protection through
land treatment, plus needed structures
in small tributary watersheds; whereas
the so-called small-projects act is bas-
ically an MISREPRESENTATION PROPOSE
ton. The two together offer more flexi-
BILE opportunities for dealing with local
water problems"
The Sos administrator emphasized
that small watershed development is
not a federal dam-building program.
Local people having flood damage or
other watershed problems have to
want federal technical and financial
assistance in developing watershed
project, and they must apply for such
assistance before such help can be
given, he said.
Williams lauded Montana for its lead
ership and progress in range conser-
walton. MANY of our grass seeding
techniques now in use throughout the
Great Plains" he said, "started here in
Montana, which was an early leader in
grass seeding, especially crested wheat

ton that cannot be worn to work
somehow in industry, or hunt the
world around to see if there amt
something else to grow besides the
same old crops we know. I think
'chemurgy" is the name most often
used by those who claim that using
more, not growing less, is how to
solve our surplus mess.
This plan is fine in theory, but
even so it seems to me that there
amt too much evidence 'twould help
in dollars and in cents. I doubt that
it would help at all to use more
corn for alcohol, our preacher keeps
reporting how that markets satur-
ated now. And any brand-new crop
that would bring profits that were
very good would soon be grown in
such supply that it would also pile
up high. No sir, think my farming
plan is the best devised by man:
Work half as hard and there would
be no SURPRISES at all, by gee.

Watershed Development
A proposed amendment to Public Law
No. sec, which pertains to small water
shed development and drainage dis
tricts, came under considerable discus
sion. 1t was pointed out that under the
present law local organizations must
furnish all easements and right-of-wayS
and must operate structural works and
that there is no organization at the
present time that can carry on these
functions.
If passed by the next Legislature the
amended act would enable existing anC
newly created drainage districts to car
ry out drainage and flood control prof
ects under cooperative Federal anC
State agreements. The amendmen
would give broader powers than are
called for under the existing act, allow
ing drainage districts to cooperate will
the government and landowners in flooC
control and soil and water conservation
programs ''for the further development
of the states economy
Subject to approval of people in til
affected areas, districts would be i'm
powered to construct, operate and mair
tain drainage and flood control struc
lures and could acquire lands, easC
ments and rights-of-way for sites, struC
lures, flowage or impeachment of W;
tiers.
Convention delegates were urged
contact their state representatives priC
to the converting of the next Legislature
informing them of the need for tt
amendments.
