PASADENA, Calif. (AP) Canals carrying water across Canada from Alaska could transform American and deserts to "the breadbasket of the world," a scientist believes. Dr. Kaihaa W. Snyder, chief scientist for ma engineering firm that has spent 11 mfflion to develop the proposal, said the potential benefits of increased farmland, recreation and hydroelectric power justify Us consideration.

That's if 7100 billion could be raised to pay for it, if the governments concerned could agree to it, and if engineers could solve environmental problems likely to arise. Water eoald be delivered to American desert areas within nine years of construction start, Snyder said. Once completed, he added, the system could boost the American gross national product by $450 billion a. vear and Canada's by vp to 1110 billion. Snyder's firm, the Ralph M.

Parsons an mter- aational engineering conglomerate, first released its eoocepteal stady 10 j-ears ago.

The reservoir would dispense water through a system of canals throughout Canada, America and, eventually, Mexico. "With several crises hitting all at ccce now, people may become interested again 'in this Snyder said, referinf to drought in the western United States and fuel Sfcort- ages in the East.
