This rosy future just around the corner, which we hear ahont at election time, has a familiar rinf?. It is like the election promises the New Deal has made for 12 years that the Kntorprise road would I he, oih-d If we just nave them one. more chain. If I the New Deal loves Washington county and recla- j malioii projecls iniicli, why didn't we have the Saul a Clara project or the Hurricane project or some other worthwhile reclamation project thi-se Kist VI years? Had the New Di-alers done some- thint; like that instead of the lnoiulof?(iliiu?, leaf- j rakln(?, spend-lhrift, ill-advised .schemes our money has Kone for, we could have some faith Ln their lu-omisi !. Of course, they have had only 12 years to plan these projects, and perhajw that is too soon to evpi-ct any action. Of course, they love Wash-in-lon comity. They love. Sidney Ilillman and Earl fl lirowder; they love must everyone now, provided 9 they are old enough to vote. I We believo it will take a change of administration and H a cluuiKo of viewpoint to .?et reclamation projects. Such I projects do not jiho with a policy of scarcity, they aren't 1 consistent with killinK little pi(?s and plowing crops under. Wo Indie vn such projects will have to be fostered by the Republican I'arty, which started them in the first plaoe, and which believes! im increasing production and in projects which help people to help themselves. The New Deal's light-hearted dance down the primrose path to Utopia is strewn with so many broken 1 promises that wo would advise our local people to at least get their crops In this fall before they start making their ditches to get the water from those projects out on their farms. If our people really want such projects, a change of administration administra-tion is the surest way we know of to get them. (Paid Pol. Ad. by Washington County Republican Comm.) |
