Description	New basin bill yields same end. - Project is not held up by amended measure. - To the Editor of the Spokesman-Review : Mr. Gill, chairman of the Columbia Basin league, says that your newspaper today reports that Senator Jones and myself have given up effort to have the Columbia basin adopted as a government project.
