SHIPPER ASKING
CANAL BENEFITS
Upper Mississippi River Association
Delegates Discuss Disturbed Trans
portatiOn Rates.

Dubuque. Iowa, June 9. - Dangers
said TO be menacing commercial and
manufacturing interests OF the interior
sections of the United States brought
representatives OF commercial and
traffic associations in the middle west
together here today in a conference of
the Upper Mississippi River Improve
ment association. Disturbed transpor-
tation conditions arising from the new
rates via the Panama canal were the
immediate matters TO be considered by
the conference. II was claimed that
these new rates caused all benefits OF
the canal to accrue TO seaboard or near
seaport points.
The conference, which opened this
forenoon and was expected to occupy
at least two days, was presided over by
Thomas Wilkinson of Burlington,
Iowa, president of the organization. As
the only available and obvious protec-
ton against the dangers said TO threat
en- the commercial interests of this sec
ton. the use of the Mississippi river
and its tributaries for freight trans
portation was TO be urged by the
speakers representing the various To-
cal and state organizations. The con
struction of powerful tow boats and
barges 10 carry immense tonnage be
tween Minneapolis and ST Paul and
New Orleans was to be considered.

PROPOSES
UNION OF NATIONS
Senator FayOrS international Police,
AflOat and Ashore, Strong Enough
to Maintain Peace.

SChnectady. y. Y, June 9--Senator
Henry Cabot Lodge. speaking today at
the commencement exercises at Union
] college. asserted that world peace
would never be maintained without
strong force, and advocated a union
of nations with international police.
afioat and ashore. strong enough to
overcome the strongest individual
state.
How is peace to be established and
maintained among nations?" Senator
Lodge said. "One thing is certain. it
cannot be done by words. Nothing
will be accomplished by people who
are sheltered under neutrality, gather
ing outside the edges of the fight and
from comfortable safety summoning
the cOmbatants to throw down their
arms and make peace because war is
filled with horrors and women are the
mothers OF men"
II would be as futile, Senator Lodge
said. to abolish ornaments as it would
be TO abolish fire because fire some
times caused great conflagrations with
their attendant loss of life and prop
erty, or knives. because knives infiict-
ed wounds. The reason lay deeper
than armaments; it was the desire to
use them wrongly, for aggression. A
general reduction of armaments, he
said. should be sought with earnest
ness. but for one nation to disarm
and leave itself defenseless in an
armed world is a direct incentive and
invitation to war
Nations must unite" the senator
said. 'as men unite to preserve peace
and order. The great nations must be
so united as TO be able TO say TO any
single country you must not go to
war and they can only say that eff
fectively when the country desiring
war knows that the force which the
united nations place behind peace is
1 am certain that it is in
this direction alone that we can find
hope for the maintenance OF the world s
peace and the avoidance of needless
wars"

for Examinations of State
Private Concerns.

Illinois Is Shown to Lead the
Nation in Number of
Financial Collapses.

Springfield, Ill, June 9.-Private
bankers of Illinois today lost their
fight to kill the so-calIed private
bank bill, pending before the lower
house of the legislature. The Thon
bill, making private banks subject to
examination by the state auditor, was
given place on the house calendar
after the committee on banks had rec
commended that it be killed.
When the banking committee made
its report this morning, Representa-
tive William G.. Thon OF Chicago,
author of the measure. moved that the
house non-concur and that the bill be
placed on the calendar so 1t could be
considered by the house.
Representative Sheppard, chairman
of the banking committee. moved to
table the Thon motion, but the mo-
tion TO table was lost by a vote of
IS to 80. The Thon motion then was
carried by q vote of SO to 43. How
ever, because of the lateness of the
session and the small vote cast on
the Thon motion today. friends of the
measure consider that there is but
little chance for private bank legisla-
ton at this legislative session.
In speaking for his bill, Represen-
tative ThOn quoted statistics to show
that Illinois leads every other state
in the union in the number of private
bank failures He said that from
Jan. 1, 1912. until April 1, 1915, there
we're 26 private bank failures in Chi
