WASHINGTON, Nov. 13.--Advised

ties that the government must take
some action to meet the economic
changes which will result when the
Panama canal is opened to continuous
business, President Wilson is consid.
erfng embodying some recomm enda-
lions In messages to congress.
1t Is contended by these manufac-
turers that until waterway is opened
from the great lakes to the gulf, they
cannot compete with those in the
coast states on business going through
the canal, unless there be 4 new
schedule Of freight rates. Representa-
tive manufacturers already have call
ed the attention Of congressman from
central states to this situation and the
latter have discussed It at the white
houte.
The Illinois state legislature has ap-
propriated $2,G00,000 for the construc-
ton Of an eight foot waterway from
Lockport to Utica, Illinois, which will
create a clear channel for boats from
the lakes into the Mississippi and
thence to the gulf This project, how
ever, will not be completed for about
two years.

There Is much mystery concerning
movements OF the main Serbian and

garian and Bulgarian official reports,
IL read together, indicate that the
Serbian forces must be huddled to-
gether in a small area of central Ser
bia with but meagre chance Of es-
Gaping into Montenegro. II this be
true, It is difficult to understand why
so few Serb:ans have as yet been
captured Berlin waited expectantly

The British cabinet selected COM
mittee of five of its own members
this week to assume control Of the
direction OF the war. No announce
ment has been made concerning the
full extent of the committees author
ity, but it will probably have exclu-
sive direction over all matters that re-

The full membership Of the cabinet
is twenty-five. BY reducing this num-
Der to five, 1t Is expected that much
of the delay, which to the present has
so handicapped Great Britain in the
war, will be eliminated.
In protest against his exclusion In
the new committee, Winston Chur-
chill has resigned from the ministry.
The premier could not place him
among the favored FIVE because of

responsible by public opinion for the
