WOTHERSPOON ASKS THE CONTINUANCE OF
 WORK ON LOCK r
Acting Secretary of War Makes Report to the Rivers and Harb0rs
 Committee

Washington. September Special )--In as strong language as official propriety would permit, Gen w. ". Wotherspoon. chief of staff as acting Secretary of War in a report 10 the committee on rivers and harbors has approved uninterrupted continuance of work on Lock T.. Black Warrio river As made public today. the report verihes the information sent TO The Age-He1ald last night.
 Asked by the committee for data and recommendations on the project, for it's guidance in considering Senator Bank heads joint resolution U permit the coH- tractor to continue the work at his own risk, the office of the chief of engineers replied 'Tt would be to the advantage of the United States to have the work con- 1inue without interruption. to an early completion. The effect of the passage by Congress of the proposed joint reso- lution could, therefore, be only of benefit to the project for the improvement of the Black Warrior river."
 Recites Change of Plans
 At first submitting figures on appropria- 1ions and expenditures Tn the past, the report recited the change in plans, a 1911, to increase the height of the dam to 6S feet, ito render unnecessary tho building of dams IS and l9 of the adopted slackwater series, and to provide for the development of water power About St per cent of these funds, adds the report, now are exhausted, and under the law the contract operations must be sus- pended till further appropriations or au- thorization be made The contract covers the entire work and fixes the unit prices of all materials and work necessary for completion, and specified that no work shall be performed and no obligation shall be incurred at any time beyond the funds then available.
 '.There is, therefore" says the report. s'no financial obligation resting on tie government. so far as the contract is concerned, unless Congress should apprG priate additional funds. or authorize work to be continued to completion. The con tractor, however, is willing to continue the work at his own risk, relying on fu- fure action by Congress in providing funds to meet the governments obliga- tion.
 Materials Assembled
 ''He has large quantities of materials as sembled and large force of men en- gagged, an average of 5S0 men being enl- ployed during the month 3r July last It is manifestly to his interest to avoid dis jntegration of this well organized force and the deterioration of the assembled materials which would result from the indefinite suspension of active opera tions."
 The report then concludes with the com ment that ''it likewise would be of ae- vantage to the United States" as quoted before.
 Representative Taylor now will urge Chairman Sparkman to call a meeting of the committee as soon as possible and belief prevails that the resolution will be favoraby reported and eventually be adopted. The contractor will be paid through passage of the rivers and harbors bill, which still retains a proposed ap- peopriation for the work. C. l.. s.
