Would First Improve Ohio
River and New York
Barge Canal.
THEIR OPERATION
WOULD BE A GUIDE
At Present He Considers Canal and
River Improvement in an
Experimental Stage.

Senator Burton OF Ohio resumed his
attack on features Of the river and har-
Dor bill today.
The indications are. however, that
Senator Burton will be able 70 effect
few changes IN the bill The majority
Of the Senate is apparently disposed 10
put the bill through about as it came
from committee
A test was had last evening when Sen
ator Burton coiIided with Senator Lodge.
Senator Burton. after speaking for
about two hours. offered an amendment
striking from the bill provision for con-
tinuing work on a proposed harbOr OF
refuge on the north side Of Cape Ann
The bill carries $4,000 for this pur-
pose It Is estimated that $4,000 more
Is needed.
Mr.. Burton scored this as one Of the
worst examples Of pieCemeeI appropTia-
tons IN the BIZ and figures IT would
take ffty-One years 20 fnish the work
at the rate Il was now going
Senator Lodge defended the project
and pleaded with the Senate not 20
strike out the appropriation In the end,
the motion Of Senator Burton was over
whelmingly voted down This was the
first test Of strength as between Sen
atOr Burton and the supporters Of the
bill
Burton's Position
In the course Of the debate. Senator
I Burton defined his position as 70 what
should be the waterway policy Of Con
Ersss- He would center attention OH
two great projects, and hurry them 70
completion. the barge canal from Buff
falO 70 the Hudson and the Ohio river.
He would complete these. viewing them
as 20 a certain extent experimental
Having them finished, then he would
learn from their operation what sort
of traffic they could best carry and
how best waterways could be carried
on He would not stop work on al
other projects, but on good many OF
them.
senator Burton emphasized the idea
that he considered waterway improve
Tuent IN this country in the experiment
al stage.
one thing Senator Burton especially
emphasized was that until Congress had
prevent the railroads from driving the
waterways out OF business, the water
way problem would not be solved and
u was Weil-nigh useless TO go ahead
with appropriations
He said without such legislation, the
waterways would be confined to uiv-
iaI business OF would be driven out OF
bvsivess. except in case Of water routes
/ b zv-ng exceptional advantages
Newlands' Idea.
Senator NewlaRds took sharp excep-
tson 20 Senator Buttons idea OF merely
completing two great projects. He
thought the Government could AFFORD
10 take chances IN this matter and that
waterway Improvement should be view
ed as one comprehensive whole. Just
as one would consider a great railroad
system
Mr. Burton opposed the idea Of having
the waterways controlled by al execu-
tive commission Congress, he declared.
