WOULD CANALIZE AMERICA.
Complete Waterways System Advo
Gated by w. F. johnson.

Advocating reconstruction Of canals al
ready in existence, canalization Of navi-
gable rivers and further construction of
canals connecting with the inland water
systems of the United States, to meet the
increase in the country's freightage, as
its population and industrial and agri-
cultural activities increase, Willis Fletch-
er Johnson Of the New York Tribune
staff delivered a lecture last night on
Waterways of the Empire before the
National Geographic Society in New Ma
sonic Temple.
Mr.. Johnson declared that the true fu-
ture development Of the country lay in
taking advantage Of the natural water
ways from coast to coast, thereby placing
at the nations disposal every available
means of transportation. The construc-
ton Of railways should continue as it
has in the past, and the two methods of
transportation should be regarded as
supplemental rather than competitive.
All canalized rivers and canals, he de-
clared, should have a uniform depth to
accommodate vessels Of a maximum
standard draught.

CONDUIT CLOSED FIVE DAYS.
Unusually High Turbidity of the
Potomac Water in January.

owing to the unusually high turbidlty
of the Potomac river in the month of
January, it was found necessary to eX-
Guide the raw water from the conduit
at Great FANS for five days and sixteen
hours. This is the longest period the
conduit has been closed for such purpose
III its entire history, according to Maj.
Morrow, the engineer officer in charge
Of the District water supply system, who
reported the facts to the War Depart
ment. He said that not only was the
ttirbidity of the water excessive, but the
bacterial content also was high. And it
was to exclude that kind of water from
the system that the conduit was closed
for so long period.
1t is regarded as probable that Congress
shortly will authorize the construction of
a coagulating plant as an auxiliary to
the system. In that event it is predicted
the necessity for such closing of the con-
duit will not arise during the winter
turbidity periods in the future.
During the past month the average
quantity of water pumped to the filters
per diem was 62,490.OOo gallons, being
..120oo0 gallons more than during the
preceding month, and 4,77O.O00 gallons
more than during January, 1909. The per
capita daily consumption for the past
month was 49, gallons.
