WASHINGTON, June 4.-Represent-
alive Richard w. Austin, of the Knox
vile tTenn.) district, who resigned
the consulate at Glasgow, Scotland, to
make the race for congress, is an I'M
compromising advocate of river i'm
provement, believing that water trans

Realizing that antagonistic camps
are springing up in congress looking
to the prevention of foods which dew
astated SO large a section of the
country during the early months of
the year, and approaching that diver
gent interests will endeavor to secure
legislation for pet projects during the
coming winter Mr.. Austin sounds the
keynote for the advocates of river
navigation.
I've want to do in this country
what they are doing in Germany by
making every river that possesses
merit an artery for trade and com
merce. No transportation is cheaper
than water transportation, and no
agency so effective for the reduction

had been called and woL dshave to be-
paid on or about June LIST and, as
there was no money in the treasury
to redeem the bonds, he suggested.
that the city issue bonds to cover this
amount so as to replace the shortages
in the improvement fund, as suggest,
ed in the report of'the state board of
accounts. Mayor Zimmerman Them
declared that he would not issue any
bonds during his administration andi
that he would take care of the bondss
in some other way.
The matter was then referred to al
special committee, composed OF b. A,
Kennepohl, president of the board, W.,
A. Bond, city attorney, and E. G. Nc
Mahan, cit comptroller.
How Issue Was Dodged.
s, The committee, with the exception
of McMahan agreed that the best way
to get around the difficulty was to
take advantage of an old law which
permitted the city to use the money
in sinking funds to purchase city i'm
provement bonds, consequently rec
ommendation to that effect was made
to council Monday night and an ordi-
nance introduced, which, however, has
only had first reading.
Such action by council, as proposed
by the mayor. wouldsonly postpone the
settlement of a debt that was Illegal
ly contracted during previous Zim-
norman administration by which the
city has suffered a considerable loss
each year since the debt was contract
ed. This is true because the bonds
would still remain unpaid and the
passage of the ordinance would only
mean trading the money in the sink
ing funds for the outstanding improve
ment bonds. The bonds would have to
be paid at some future date, at which
time an appropriation would have to
be made to cover the amount used il
legally several years ago, for which
bonds were issued.
The city has been receiving 3 per
cent from the banks of Richmond for
the money on deposit and paying out
interest at the rate of 5 per cent to
the bond holders on the bonds which
should have been recalled and paid.
1t is not known what action council
will take at it's next meeting in,regard
to the ordinance.

and especially Tennessee. and the
same thing will apply to every section
OF the country, the improvement of
our waterways means the development
of our resources. Let me cite a con-
crete case At the headwaters of the
Cumberland We have coal. iron, tim
Der and marble, which could be ship
ped by water, in their raw state or
in the finished product. TO the best
markets. 1t costs from 81 10 $3.50
TO ship a ton of marble or pig iron
by rail TO ST. Louis. Louisville, Gin
cinnati and other points in the Ohio
and Mississippi valleys, whereas by
the utilization of the Tennessee river
the same products could be shipped
to the same points at cost of $3.50
per ton, Il saving of two-thirds.
The southern furnaces are unable
to ship their pig iron to the Pa
cific coast, China and England. be-
cause the railroad rate from Birming-
ham and other southern points is $1.20
ton. The rate from China is $3.50
per ton, and from England SO per ton
by water or a difference of between
$4.20 and s4.70 per ton in favor of
our foreign competitors.
With the completion of the Panama
canal and the utilization of the south
ern rivers we would have direct water
transportation for the output of the
furnaces of the south to the Pacifc
coast and the rail rate of 5000 per
ton on pig iron would be changed
into a $3.50 per ton rate by water, or
saving OF $40 per ton.
ut is the solemn duty of congress
The Richmond palladium and sun-telegram. [volume] (Richmond, Ind.) 1907-1939, 1913-06-04

to appropriate sufficient sums of man
ey to take in all the meritorious rivers
of the country, and by systematic work
make them do their measure of trans
portation either through locks and
dams or slack water navigation.
One of the crying mistakes OF our
law makers is the insufficient amount
appropriated for our rivers. necessi-
tating long and tedious delays in the
completion of projects in every way
worthy OF improvement.
The development of the interior
waterways of the country should be
put on a business basis by congress
in order that the people OF our day
and generation may be able 10 enjoy
the privileges of cheap transporta'
