Speech #690233444

The avalanche of misleading. deceptive. and false propaganda pouring from the columns of some newspapers. has led them astray. When they get the truth they will wake up with a jolt. I do not want to see the Senate rush this bill through and play into the hands of such an unpatriotic scheme to transplant Asiatic competition to America. in order that profits of billions of dollars may line the pockets of land speculators. If this bill is passed. all the land that will ever be irrigated from the Colorado River in Arizona will be. at most. 300.000 acres of low. river level land. The FallDavis report fixed the area at 280.000 acres.
