Washington, D. CJ April 22.
(Special Telegram.) Secretary Fall
of the Interior department has Riven
his unqualified endorsement to Judge
Ktnkaid'i Joint resolution authoris
ing the secretary of the interior to
furnish water to applicants and en
try men in arrears, for, more than
one calendar year; for payment or
maintenance charges, notwithstand
ing the provisions in section 6 of
the act of 1914.
Today the secretary, who' has a
very broad and comprehensive
knowledge o the irrigation situa-
b TN lmv nrir nf nirrViiltiiral
products raised last year, together
' with the general financial stringency,
has made it very difficult at the
piesent time for the water users to
meet payments for water furnished
for reclamation projects.
"The act of August 13, 1914. in
section 6, prohibits the furnishing
of water for any lands on wincn
the payments of watw charges are
in arrears for more, than one calen
dar year.
"As this prohibition of law would
prevent a considerable number of
people from receiving water this sea
son, it is deemed reasonable under
the circumstances to permit the sec
retary in meritorius cases to-temporarily
suspend the operation of
this requirement and I am there
fore in accord' with the plan pro
posed in your resolution.' .
