The drum beating of the Inter
ior Department and its satellite
Reclamation Bureau up here in
Alaska is following and will no
doubt continue to follow the pro
paganda pattern that has been
■ well established in the western
I states. What the Department aims
I to do is to dominate those west
ern states and Alaska, and the
propaganda campaigns are tail
ored to serve that purpose.
Three principal items of the
campaigns are:
1. An effort, common to a num
ber of government agencies, to
hoodwink the people into believing
that their tax dollars can be taken
on a round trip to Washington
and returned to them, undimin
ished, in the form of Federal aid.
2. A constant barrage of propos
als ior turning additional acres
of arid land into farm land by ir
rigation.
3. Continued assertions that the
United States is woefully short of
electric power and that this short
age must be eliminated by having
the Reclamation Bureau build
more a^rd bigger hydroelectric pro
jects.
The fallacy of the first of these
tenets is so apparent that even
some state legislatures have been
able to see it and have petitioned !
Congress to leave the taxes at
home and to let the states carry
on their own aid programs and
projects.
I Federal aid programs probably
| do not, on the average, return
more than two bits on the dollar
to the people who put up the
cash, and the shrinkage has been
estimated to run as high as 90
percent on some of them.
As to the farm land proposals
of the Reclamation Bureau, the
i Department of Agriculture is cur
rently spending millions of dol
lars every year to prevent flood
ing of the markets by the crops
from our present farms.
Moreover, there are thousands
of acres of land in the United
States that can be turned into
productive farms by low cost
clearing and draining when there
is a need for more acreage.
The Water Resources Policy
Commission, an independent body,
estimates that land can be drained
at about one tenth the cost of
reclaiming arid land by irrigation.
Tie original function of the
Reclamation Bureau when it was
created in 1902 was to reclaim
dry lands and put them into pro
duction by means of irrigation
projects.
Some 15,000,000 acres of arid
lands in the West have been put
into production by reclamation
projects that were privately and
locally financed, and the Recla
mation Bureau has salvaged an
other 5,000,000 acres during the'
past half century.
But the Bureau's reclamation I
work was something like 80 per- j
cent completed by 1945, which was
about the time the Bureau’s an
nual budget started to increase
by leaps and bounds.
This growing budget was, of!
course, contrary to all normal ex- !
pectations. As it was originally j
set up, the Reclamation Bureau!
should have been self liquidating.;
The costs of the various reclama- i
tion projects were to have been j
paid off within 10 years by the j
land owners who received the I
water.
under tills plan, wnen a sui
ficiency of land had been reclaim- |
ed and all of the project costs
paid off, the Eureau would have
closed its doors.
But liquidation is somthing that
no bureaucrat undergoes willingly
and without a fight. It presents
him, for one thing, with the
dreary prospect of having to go ;
back to work for a living.
A great many government bur- j
eaus have been abolished at one ;
time and another, but almost in
evitably two or three or half a
dozen new ones have sprung up •
fer each one abolished.
The Reclamation Bureau has
done a thorough job of assuiing ;
itself something like perpetuity. '
Its first device to accomplish this
was to extend the repayment per- |
iod on the projects, first to 20

years, then to 40 and finally to
50 years.
On top of that, to make sure it
will continue to fatten itself at
the public trough, the Bureau has
greatly expanded the scope of its
activities in recent years.
There was sound sense, in some
of the Bureau’s early reclamation
projects, in combining water pew
er development, flood control and
even aids to navigation with irri
gation dams.
But the Bureau, in addition to
constructing its own multipurpose
projects, has attempted, thus far
unsuccessfully, to shove aside the
U. S. Engineers and to take over
all of the flood control and aids
to navigation work of that Corps.
When it began building multi
purpose dams, the Reclamation
Bureau moved into the power
field, where it saw great oppor
tunities for expansion. Today, the
Bureau’s greatest interest is in
power production and many of its
projects, either initiated or con
templated, are solely for power
purposes.
Power production is a controver
sial subject throughout the coun
try today. Secretary Chapman as
serts that the nation has not
enough electric power for present
war production requirements.
Charles E. Wilson, head of the
Office of Defense Mobilization, on
the other hand, has been quoted
as saying--that -there- will-he no
power shortage unless the Gov
ernment insists on locating de
fense plants in the wrong areas or
withholds equipment from private
power companies.
Nevertheless, there is a definite
need for more .electric power in
many places. In a good many of
them the need can perhaps best
be filled by steam plants, especial
ly with the greatly increased ef
ficiency of the newer plants.
In other areas hydroelectric
plants even with their much
greater initial cost, are probably
the answer. But there is no assur
ance whatever that the Reclama
tion Bureau, with its 17,000 em
ployees and its predilection for
politics and self-expansion, is best
suited to construct or operate the
new plants.
There is no point to a Govern
ment power project that cuts a
hundred dollars a year from the
electric bill .of the average house
holder if the cost of the project,
direct and hidden, increases the
same householder’s tax bill by $110
a year:
