Mr.. Fishers Suggestion.

This was particularly the case in re-
gard to Mr.. Fisher. He suggested a
constructive policy of government con-
troll to confine the traffic Of waterways
to low-grade bulk freight. Mr.. Fisher
said: Both Germany and France have
apparently accepted the economic law
which tends to conf1ne the traffic of
waterways to low-grade bulk freight,
but both have pursued consiste Mt
policy of diverting as much a possible
of this class of traffic from railroads
to waterways, by the direct interfer-
ence and control of the government"
"Wasteful Failure" Predicted.
Prof William A. Shelton OF the Uni
versity of Georgia took the position
that the proposed waterway could be
nothing but wasteful failure
River traffic never can compete with
rail traffic" said Prof Shelton. This
is demonstrated by the way the roads
have driven freight off the Mississippi
and the Ohio rivers Business men
been made from time to time to revive
the old water routes, but each attempt
has proven a financial failure"
M" Gov. DUNES View.
Gov. Dunno declared tho proposed
waterway would afford a continued
water route eight feet in depth from
Lake Michigan to Cairo. and thence by
the Mississippi river to New Orleans
and the Gulf of Mexico.
Il believe a tremendous commerce
will be developed over this waterway"
he said. as soon as 1t is opened to the
public, with New Orleans 1000 miles
nearer the Panama canal than arc the
ports Of Boston, Philadelphia and New
York"

 MEXICAN FACTION IS NOT CONTEMPLATED
Secretary Bryan Says United States Has Not Been Asked to Take the Matter Up

Washington, April 2s.-Recognition of any of the Mexican factions during thu present uncertain state of affairs is not contemplated by the United States, according to expressions today by high officials.
 Secretary Bryan told inquirers that
 the subject of recognition had not reached the point of formal consid-
 eration. Persons close to the White House said President Wilson intended
 to study the question carefully before
 |committing the American government
 10 recognition and that he did nos
 propose to take any action until the military situation in Mexico clarified Itself.
 Published reports that statement to be issued by General Carranza cov- ering his intentions and programme had been drafted on suggestion from the Washington administration and was now before Secretary Bryan and President Wilson were met with tho
 explanation that what purported 10 be the views of the first chief had beeD
 |rresented officially to the state depart ment but "had not been submitted for
 an expression of opinion or with any
 view toward recognition"
 "We haven't been asked" said NIr.

 would regard as sufficient to raise the subject of recognition

TWO RESOLUTIONS
 ADOPTED BY WOMEN
Peace Congress at The Hague Would Give People More
 Power

The Hague, April 29-(via London, s:15 p. m.)-The entire session today of the International Congress of Women was de- voted to the discussion and adoption of two resolutions The first provided for democratic control in framing the for eign policies of nations. As amended and adopted this resolution recommended null lification of all secret treaties and the par ticipation in the adoption of future treaties by the people, at least through legislative branches of governments.
 The second resolution opposed transfer of territory from one nation Co another without d consent of the inhabiiants. As amended and adopted, ths resolution rec commended recognition of the right of peo- ples to self government and demanded a democratic form of government for every nation.
 Pamphlets dealing with conditions in Po- land were distributed among the dele gates. That aroused some feeling by wom- en who characterized 1t as an anti-Rus- sian propaganda emanatihg from German sources

The resolution relating to spirits was passed by vote of s9 to g. the minority being composed of O'Brienites

 The nationaIists also protested against the measure, but did not vote. The union iSso' "ho Witiiciu SiitieiSiH ufitil titi the facts. could be placed before them. also abstained from voting.
 Usually these provisional resolutions are carried without division, for should Par liament refuse to sanction the taxes, they are refunded to those who may have paid.
 The laborites promised to reply to the chancellor's charges that a minority of the workmen. lured away by drink. were not putting their best into the work of producing war material.
 The extra taxes will be included in the budget, which chancellor Lloyd George will introduce in the House of Commons Tuesday and the bill. which is an amend ment to the defense of the realm act, will be postponed for the second reading at a later date, when the debate on it will take place. Before that time the chancellor has promised to place in the hands of the members a series of reports of independ- ent investigators on whose findings the government decided to take the action it has
 Besides the Irish opposition to the spirit duties, many members oppose the new wine taxes on the ground that they strike at France, Australia and South Africa. The proposed appointment of a board of control and the proposal to take over for canteen purposes. the saloons in the muni- tioEs of war areas and to compensate all interests are generally approved by the members.
