Lack of Funds for Flood
Appropriation Explained
A mews letter issued frtom the
office of Alaska Delegate A.
J. Dimlond shortly before Con
gress adjourned, refers to the
Hyder fl'oiod projeqt bill as fol
lows :
"Congressional action having
been completed, Mr. Dim|ond’s
Salmon River flood control bill
gbes now down to the other
end of Pennsylvania avenue for
the President’s signature.
"While it carries no approp
riation, it does have the effect
of stating the Congress believes
the community of Hyder ought
to be protected from the flood
waters of the Salmon River.
This is expected to aid materi
ally in further efforts! to induce
the Public Works Administra
tion to make an allotment for
the project.
“Since the administration is
opposed to any Congressional
bills carrying appropriations
for rivers and harbors and
flood conitrlol 'projects, lit was
not possible to insert in the Sal
mon River bill a money item t|o
carry out the work.”
