Report Against Flood Project PRESIDENTS WATERWAY COMMITTEE FINDS WABASH RIVER PLAN TOO EXPENSIVE. WASHINGTON, June 6—President Roosevelt’s special committee on waterways believes the proposed improveanents in the Wabash valley are not justified at this time. The comffnpttee’s rejiort to the senate committee dfcsn ibed the project as one providing for the construction of a limited number hydroelectric d'\Mopments at selected points and establishments of publicly owned forests to cover a total of about 220,000 acres of abandoned farm lands. “The progralm of large scale construction by the federal government does not ap)>ear to be justified) by the amount of benefits expected to accure,” the committee reported. “The program is not recommended at this time.” The report, of the subcommittee sayts the most practical plan for flood protection provide- for the inclosure by levees of 414,140 acres of agricultural land and 17 cities amt towns. The reijKmt details the individual projects as follows: Wabash river betw-een the mouth and Mt- Carmel, 140,300 acres, $7,138,000 cost; Waba>h river between Mt. Carmel and Terre Haute, 161,470 acres, $0,937,200; Wabash river above Terre Haute, 22,210 acres, $1,567,zOO; White river, 0,700 acres, $600,000; east fork of White river, 37,160 acres, $2,020,800; west fork of White river, 50,300 acres, $2,973,000. The total cost would be $21,202,900, and the additional $9,173,000 for cities and towns would bring it to $30,33.’),900. The committee said that although there were possibilities of hydroelectric development* in Indiana creating 24,700 kilowatt hours at a construction cost of $92,202,500, such a program “is not justified at this time.’’ The five possibilities included) one on the Wabash river near Del|>hi, cost $8,358,5011 and producing 30,500 kilowatts; one at Hog Plant on the Tippecanoe river costing $4,435,000 and producing 22,700 kilowatts; one at High Bridge on the Sugar creek tributary of Um Wahosh river costing $3,842,000 and producing 10,000 kilowatts; one at Shoals on the east fork of White river nosting $32,701,000 an 1 producing 149,500 kilowatts, and one at Cagle* Mills on the Millcreek tributaries and the Eel river tributary of the west fork of White river costing $2,800,000, and producing 10,000 kilowatts.
