these hearings,

be done early in
of The session.
During the meeting
waterways association tn
in December, delegates fir,
ganization were heard by tn
mittees of Congress on prot
| fecting the larger inland wa,
notably the Mississippi and o.
ers.
In both instances respecting
two rivers, advocates of improvemt
laid stress upon the desirability
Importance of the Federal governmel
taking over the entire scheme of i'm
provement and abandoning the local
cooperative practice on the Mississippi
river, particularly in levee improve
ments, and on the upper Ohio, at the
junction of the Allegheny and Monon-
gahela rivers, involving lock and dam
construction and flood prevention pro-
iects.
The hearing on the Mississippi riv-
er's difficulties, in the discussion of
the levee problem, disclosed that To-
cal cooperation in levee work had
made excellent progress up to the dis
astrous flood of early last summer, the
which convinced all interests that the
safest dependence to prevent the re-
currence of these numerous disasters,
is for the Federal government to be
: given complete control Of the construc-
J ton aud care of the levees of the
: great water highway. 1t was particu
larly emphasized that the speediest
possible improvement in accord with
, the policy was now more than evel
} manifestly the most vitality important
/. of all river projects, in. view of the
I approaching completion and opening
= to the commerce of the world of the
Panama Canal.
The estimates from the engineers o
the army for all river and harbor i'm
i provements call for the expenditure o
about $44,O00,O00. There are million,
more, already involved in former rec
concentrations. At the first meeting

DEAL PROPOSED BY
LODGE ON TARIFF
BOfch and PrOgresSives, How
ever, Put QuietuS on II.

Washington, July 30.--Republican
leaders in the senate submitted a pro.
posal to the Democratic $. e t., gree
by unanimous consent to e>pr re tn:
passage of the Underwood Simmons
tariff bill and then adjourn without
taking up currency legislation at this
session
This proposal was first suggested
by Senator Brandegee Of Connecticut
and later seconded by Senators Lodge
and Gallingcr Finding the Demo-
cratic leaders in no mood to accept
the prefer, Senator Galinger boldly
announced that If congress was to be
kept in continuous session on the de-
mand of the president after the tariff
bill was disposed of, it might as we'll
take all the time deemed necessary to
debate the pending tariff bill
Senator Borah rose as soon as Sen
atOr Lodge concluded and declared the
suggestions that had just come from
the Republican side did not represent
the views Of himself and number OF
other Republicans. 1t was learned
later that Senator Borah spoke for all
the progressive Republicans who held
a separate conference and decided to
carry on their opposition to the I'm
derwood-Simmons tariff bill along dis
tinCtive lines.
