Slashes Reclamation Fund.

WASHINGTON, Aug. 20 (U. P). ~The bureau of reclamation's

plans to provide homesteads for veterans will be slowed down considerably for the next year or two under the President's economy order. Congress gave the bureau $170, 000,000 for its first post-war year of construction designed to open thousands of acres of newly-irri-gated ‘public lands for settlement by veterans. . The economy order limits the bureau to expenditure of $85,000,000. This sum has already been almost accounted for in new contracts let since July 1 plus money which must be set asidé to meet future payments on contracts already incurred. . The bureau of Indian affairs has not been as severely cut in its planned construction. This program called for $7,000,000 of which it hopes to spend all but $1,250,000. This shows only about an 18 per cent cut insteath of the 50 per cent slice in reclamation. The national park service, another interior department agency with construction projects, also was cut quite severely. , planned expenditures of about $17,500,000 on roads and trails, parkways and physical improvements has been held to $8,000,000. The bureau of reclamation said that personnel cuts are not expected as a result of reduced expenditures as has been rumored. Administra-
