Eisenhower Announces Few Reclamation Plans
Washington—(U.P.)-Bureau of Reclamation development projects are likely to be in scape in fiscal 1954, informed sources said today.
President Eisenhower said in his State of the Union message yesterday that 23 new projects "in which the federal government has a part" will be started after July I. But sources in the Interior department said only four reclamation projects will be included. The remaining 19 projects presumably will be part of the programs of the Corps of Engineers and the Soil Conservation service of the Department of Agriculture.
Undersecretary of Interior Ralph A. Tudor said the department had recommended to the President that he include "some" new reclamation projects in the government's fiscal 1954 construction program. Tudor would not identify the projects. He said they would be in the budget message later this month.
Other sources said the four recla-

mation projects to be recommended for congressional cash are phases of the Yuma, Ariz., irrigation and power project, extension of pumping facilities at the Minidoka, Idaho project, and reconstruction work on the Carisbad, N.M., and middle Rio Grande, N.M., projects.
The sources said the "new" part of the President's message undoubtedly applied to "new" portions of these projects.
Tudor said the projects recommended to Mr. Eisenhower included those already authorized but for which no money has been appropriated. He said no money will be asked this year for the proposed $1 billion upper Colorado water storage project, which still is before Congress.
The yardstick for a new construction project was contained in this paragraph of Mr. Eisenhower's speech:
"New projects in which the federal government has a part must be economically sound, with local sharing of cost wherever appropriate and feasible . . . The federal government will continue to construct and operate economically sound flood control, power, irrigation, and water supply projects wherever these projects are beyond the capacity of local initiative, public or private."
Tudor said the departments of Interior and Agriculture and the Corps of Engineers are engaged in an "active study" to iron out "a uniform and consistent water resources policy" called for by the President.

Eligible women college students may now apply for enlistment in the U.S. Navy's Wave officer program during their junior year, the Navy announced today.
Women enlisting now and who are in their junior year in college will be ordered to Newport, R. I., this summer for an eight week's course of basic training.
Following this summer training, the enlistees will return to college for the completion of their senior year. They will then be considered for appointment as ensigns in the Waves.
Women college graduates or seniors may also apply for this program, taking their basic training after graduation. All applicants not selected will be discharged to civilian life. Those selected will serve on active duty for 24 months following the date of their appointment.
For further information on the Wave Officer Training program, contact the Office of Naval Officer Procurement, 811 Grand ave., Kansas City, Mo.

Woman Fights to Stay in Jail
REMEMBER OUR NEW HOURS FOR 1954 WEEKDAYS - 12 Noon to 12 Midnight SUNDAYS - 3 p.m. to 11 p.m.
Carlsbad, N.M. — (U.P.)— Wealthy Mrs. Frances Supina, who has spent six months in jail and wants to stay there, sat in her cell today and ordered attorneys to solve the problem of keeping her behind bars.
Frustrated county officers meanwhile mapped a plan which they hoped would force her to leave her quarters at the local prison.
Mrs. Supina's confinement began in July, 1952, when she announced her intentions to rent a garage apartment in the rear of her $25,000 home in violation of a city real estate covenant. Neighbors complained, but Mrs. Supina rented the garage apartment anyway. In December, 1952, an injunction was issued forbidding her to keep the place rented.

Last July 6 she was brought into
At the end of her sentence last Tuesday, Mrs. Supina, the number one prisoner in the jail from the standpoint of seniority, vowed she would stay in jail "until justice is lone."

She said today she has hired new attorneys and will oppose the proposed plan of assistant district attorney C. N. Morris to sell one of her houses at a sheriff's auction.
There were 65 members of the House of Representatives under the Constitution. The number of representatives increased after every national census until 1920, the number having been held at 435 since 1910.
