Not in twenty years has there
been so many new faces in the lower
house of the National Legislature as
are in this the end Congress-" said
Captain Ellison. These Legislators
will be called upon to pass a water
way budger and it is therefore highly
necessary that they have an intelll
gent grasp of this very important
subject. My understanding is that the
edict has gone forth from the leaders
of the majority to cut everything to
the bone, which, If It is followed lit
orally, might seriously jeopardize the
passage of river and harbor bill 1t
therefore behooves the friends OF
waterways throughout the country 10
attend the coming convention of the
National Rivers and Harbors Congress
and to show our lawmakers that the
old piecemeal policy of making APP
preparations for the Improvement of
our rivers and harbors and canals is
a thing OF the past. That in its stead
has come better and wiser policy OF
making annual appropriations which
is in the interest of economy and eff
ficiency. In my judgment the coming
convention will be the largest and
most enthusiastic we have ever held.
