, Washington, Nov. 30.-The plans Of
the promoters of river and harbor
; legislation and the purposes of those
who are for vigorous national de-
Tense policy are going to clash this
winter.
The recent fights in congress against
large river and harbor appropriations
have been noteworthy. They have
effected large reductions in the ap-
preparations as proposed. Preliminary
, to the gathering of the new congress.
the believers in big appropriations for
river and harbor purposes have been
organizing their forces and have been
getting ready to push thru house and
senate, if possible, a much more lib
eral measure than has passed in re-
cent sessions.
In the last congress, the river and
harbor bill has been cut to the bone
as the result largely Of the cry Of
pork barrel The opponents Of the
bill have been planning to raise the
same cry again. They will undoubt-
eddy do so. 1t is true that the result of
this outcry has been not merely to dis
credit i'll advised projects but it has
also hurt meritorious projects. Friends
of rivers and harbors appropriations
insist that the railroads and other
agencies which are aligned with the
railroads are doing their utmost to
promote the attacks on the river and
harbor bill and are eager to kill such
legislation just as completely as pos
sible.
Meets New Opposition.
In the coming session, the opponents
of large river and harbor appropria-
lions will have put in theil. hands a
powerful argument which they did not
have in the last congress. This argu-
ment is that the country is going to
undertake a great program of national
defense, that this requires money and
enhanced taxes. that therefore economy
in other directions must be enforced.
and that the river and harbor bill is
a wise direction in which to enforce it.
The administration will lend strength
to this argument. The president will
welcome economies which will help on
his defense program. Under the cir
cumstances. the river and harbor bill
will be up against obstacles which 1t
did not have to encounter in the last
congress.
The feeling OF strong body In con-
gress on the subject was recently in
dicated by Congressman Foster, OF Illi-
nois. He said he believed the people
favored preparedness. that the gov
eminent could save money in other
directions. that reductions could well
be made in river and harbor appropria-
tons that there were many projects
getting government help that had not
f1oated anything larger than "a mud
turtle for years, and that economies
should be insisted on in this connec-
ton.
Mr.. Fosters utterances are typical
Of good many more of the same
nature which will be heard this winter.
However. the river and harbor bill
will not be the only appropriations
measure which will be subjected to at
tack on the plea OF economy and the
more specific plea that economy Is

 The beloved disciple" referred to habitually addressed his flock as 'chil- dren." The Master did the same at times. as when he called to the dis ciples from the shore the day after his resurrection. "Children. have you any meat?" A church tradition tells us that St. John. who lived to a great age, was led into the place of worship on the Lords day when he was over 100 years old and, being too infirm to hold the full service, extended his hands in blessing and said: Little children love one another" His epistles are all set in the same key. His was essential ly a gospel of love. The phrase which you quote was peculiarly his own His heart brimmed with parental tender ness. You recollect that the less dem- onstrative Paul called Timothy his dearly beloved son.
