![["Representative Helen Gahagan Douglas strongly endorses the Engle-Scudder bill to authorize the building of canals for irrigation in the Sacramento Valley. The project has widespread support from officials, farmers, and citizens in the affected area. The bill aims to bring water to irrigate a large section of land that is currently largely dry-farmed, with the potential to greatly increase productivity and address water supply issues. The project is part of the original State Central Valley Project and is estimated to have a favorable benefits-to-cost ratio. Douglas urges the Senate Committee on Interior & Insular Affairs to approve the project's early authorization and construction."]](https://jones-2.s3.amazonaws.com/Helen%20Gahagan%20Douglas%20Collection/CAC_CC_014_5_172_9_0000-1950%20Campaign%20Helen%20Gahagan%20Douglas's%20Speeches/Thumbnails/CAC_CC_014_5_172_9_0030_thumbnail.jpg "Preserving Liberty: Congresswoman Douglas Opposes Mundt-Nixon Bill")
