Senator BV Robertson of Wyoming urged restoration of 14 million dollars to the western reclamation program before the senate appropriations committee. He argued the house cut was based on misreading a carryover of unexpended funds and noted obligated contracts and limited unobligated balances require the 1947 appropriation.
