none IS rejoicing with better justfica-

in the bill provides for the revetment
OF the shore line of the Mississippi

Mayor Parsons Of Cairo, visited st,

congratulations of his friends because
of his efforts to secure this appro-
priation.

with very little help from the gov
ternment. Left to itself, the Missis-
sippi would cut across the neck into
the Ohio and have done millions of
dollars worth of damage.
Cairo is one of the most valuable
ldock and manufacturing cities in the
world, being at the confluence of the
dpper and lower Mississippi, with the
Ohio the Cumberland and the Ten
lnessee and its shore is rapidly be-
coming filed with factories taking
advantage of this strategic situation.

Of the magnificent future of the city,
and expect to live to see it estab-
lished as one of the principal harhors
of the Mississippi system. For that
reason | have taken strong stand in
support Of the Mississippi Valley
Transportation Company, which offers
Us for the first time an opportunity
to secure modern docks and transpor-
tation, and / shall use every efIort
to bring to Cairo one of the distribut-
ing depots of the steel combine which
they are to establish on the river"
