Reclamation Moves Forward on Lower Klamath Lease Plan
Federal directors approve reclaiming 64 000 acres of marsh land along the Klamath lake with a Kate at the Southern Pacific crossing. If adopted the plan reduces rates by about 11 per cent and preserves 22 per cent for the current state. About 40 000 acres may be ready for pasturage next year as the gate is already installed. Washington will push to relocate the national bird reserve to land not suitable for farming.

Crozier Blamed for Ordnance Shortage in Senate Testimony
In Senate wartime hearings Colonel Isaac Lewis accused General Crozier of prejudice and autocracy over ordnance policy and the Lewis gun. President Borie supported Lewis asserting war department reluctance to adopt the Lewis gun. Witnesses predicted limited Browning gun supply, while others said production would be sufficient. Soldiers faced equipment delays and reliance on French arms, with shoes and coats also undersized for cantonment troops. The inquiry noted Defense coordination shifts and ongoing shipbuilding progress under the Shipping Board and Emory Fleet Corporation.
