in the opinion of the engineer in charge, the same Is worthy of gov ernmental aid.
 For a long while Conecuh River was the chief medium of commercial inter course in the section of country through which 1t runs, but during later years railroad traffic. because of it's oheapness and feetness. has largely superseded water transportation. caus- ing Conecuh and other like rivers to be neglected. Snags and logs impede its progress and there has been con- siderable diminution of trade along the stream.
 Colonel Wiley is deeply interested in restoring this river to it's former glory and importance.
 R. A. Chapman, a member of the En- gineers' Corps at Montgomery, has for the past two weeks been Investigating the river gathering valuable statistics and data, and will report as to the feasibility of governmental aid to the project. He is seeking all informa- ton possible to be obtained and will be glad to receive from anybody in- terested in this improvement any facts or figures coming within the scope of his investigation.
