DENEEN OUTLINES A
SCHEME FOR CHANNEL
DOWN THE MISSISSIPPI

Hickman, KY, Oct. ga gigantic
waterway plan. comprising a series OF
canals connecting navigable rivers OF
Illinois, was outlined by Governor De
neen yesterday.

power resulting from the canals. The
scheme was unfolded when % COVER
nors, on board the ST. Paul, held the
first of series Of daily conferences, at
which not only the improvement of
waterways, but other subjects will be
discussed.
Governor Hadley was chosen tenn
porary chairman OF the gathering. Sew
eral of the state executives favored
calling a meeting like the one held at
the call of Roosevelt year or SO ago

the daily conference plan was ac-
cepted
Deneen the Chief Speaker.

speaker. The Illinois governor out
lined the accomplishments In water
way improvements in his state, de-
claring that its situation between the
CULTS of ST. Lawrence and Mexico was
the real occasion for the states ac-
tivity'
He cited the STABILITY of water pow
CT from Illinois canals as an argument
for furthering the deep waterways.
"Other surveys are being made in
the state" he declared. establishing
drainage districts to be effected by
property owners in the state, which
will reclaim 5000 miles of swamp land
from floods.
''The state proposes to connect all
navigable streams by series of can
ais, to be paid for by the revenue from
the sale of water powers"
Governor Deneen laid particular
stress on states using collateral util-
tiles, as he called water powers and
objected to the national government
exercising exclusive control over
streams.
