One Of the surest rests is in relax

Many a woman has found going

Some girls make it a practice to

they knit a few rows or read a

says as to the best method of develop.
ing our national Waterways
Il think the great rivers should be
improved first in a thorough going
fashion and then the lateral streams.
This, as a broad policy, IS, in my judg-
ment, the proper course to pursue.
Il believe 1t ought to be done i'm
mediately and on a Panama scale,
and that the pork barrel system of
Rivers and Harbors Bill should be alb
solutely discontinued. think the
government could, in connection with
this matter, utilize unemployed labor
at wages below the competing point
with other employers OF labor and
thus absorb unemployed labor In this
great National project.

"Coincidentally the control OF suit.

useless without landing facilities.
There Is an enormous volume Of heavy

the railway equipment available for

"A profitable field for capital would
be opened for freight boats on these

practically driven out of business by |
unjust competition. I should not hes
