Arkansas flood control projects hear House panel
Washington May 26 Arguments on four Arkansas flood control and irrigation projects were heard by the house public works committee. Proposals include a Grand Prairie irrigation plan costing 25.9 million and a St Francis and Little River flood project at 51.1 million, plus Cache river channel deepening at 22.75 million and a 430 thousand levee for Calion. Rep Gathings said the St Francis valley is Arkansas bread basket, while proponents argue for benefits to 306,000 people and 2,000,000 acres. Local interests would share costs on the Grand Prairie irrigation plan, and Bayou Meto drainage would be nearly federally funded.
