UNITE ON ONE ISSUE
Rivers and Harbors Congress
Bars Special Projects.
MEETS NEXT WEDNESDAY
President Taft to Make the Ad-
dress at Opening.
NATIONAL POLICY ADVOCATED
Bond Issue to Raise $50, 600, 900
Year for Ten Years Is
Proposed.

The convention of the National Rivers
and Harbors Congress. which will meet
at the New Willard Wednesday next, will,
il is declared, mark an epoch In water
way improvement matters in this country,
for there will assemble here delegates
from all sections, each representing the
Improvement of a particular river or har-
Dor which most directly concerns his in
terests and the section from which he
comes. But all questions of local inn
provement will. at this convention, be
laid aside, and the fact that the true
friends OF waterway improvements in this
country have forever dropped the pork
BARI which in the past was associated
with river and harbor Improvements. will
be emphasized. These men come together,
laying aside all personal interests. to ad-
vocate that the federal government adopt
and put into effect a broad and compre-
hensive waterway policy.
No Special Project in View.
The National Rivers and Harbors Con-
gress from its inception has stood for
waterway policy without regard to any
special project. no matter where located
or how strongly advocated. and the policy
this organization is advocating is not
new proposition. except as IL applies to
the Improvement of the rivers and har-
bors in the United States. II is exactly
the policy the government adopted in the
beginning. and the completion OF the
Panama canal. and. the main features of
this policy are exactly in line with that
undertaking:
First. That no waterway improvement
shall be entered upon by the government
which has not the unqualified approval OF
the Engineer Corps, after careful exam
ination.
Second. That projects which have re-
ceived this Endorsement and are now
under construction should be pushed TO
completion as rapidly as is commensurate
with good business methods, preference
being given TO such improvements as
from their nature will be OF little use
until completed, and which will fit into
any greater and more extensive plan that
may hereafter be adopted.
Funds by Bond Issue
Third. That the funds necessary for
this purpose be provided by bond issue
just as is being done with the Panama
canal.
This national organization advocates
the issuance of bonds for the improve
ment of waterways in the sum of $50
900 900 per annum for at least ten
years, the reason being that the river
the books of the chief Of engineers of
The United States Engineer Corps will
aggregate In their cost approximately
500. 600. 900. II is believed that the per
annum sum named will allow this
work to he carried on steadily for the
peaiod named.

gress points out the fact that water
way improvements are, by the 1908
platforms of both Of the great political
parties. taken from the realm of poll
ties. Both parties, in the platforms
adopted. unequivocally eSpoused the
cause of improved waterways. Presi-
dent Taft. in his recent utterances IN
his journey around the country, has
plainly indicated that in this, as in
other instances. he regards the plat
form upon which he was elected as
pledges to the people. In his public ad-
dresses he has been conservative on the
point OF extensive expenditures for
waterway improvements and has given
utterance to practically the platform
upon which the National Rivers and
which 1t has SO strongly adhered to-
that every waterway project must DO
first carefully considered in all its as
poets before it can expect any appro-
priation from the federal Treasury.
The plank in the Chicago platform Of
the republican party as it applies to
waterways is as follows: ITO enter
upon a systematic improvement upon a
! large and comprehensive plan just to
all portions of the country of the water
ways, harbors and great lakes whose
natural adaptability to the increasing
traffic Of the land is one of the great
est gifts of benign Providence
