magnitude to the people of these

country are to say who is and who is

NO THANKS FOR THEM.

While President Wilson's message
to Congress was brief and anything
but comprehensive, it was not limited
to a single subject and it dwelt in
passing on variety of topics other
than the industrial disputes question
on foreign selling agencies and cor
rupt practices and Porto Rico, for in
stance.
In view of this fact, it seems less of
an oversight than a piece of repre-
hensible neglect that the President
failed to say one word of commenda-
ton or sympathy for the militiamen
on the Mexican border.
A large proportion of these men
have made great and definite sacri-
fees in order to serve their country.
Many of them are men with import
ant business connections and their
business interests have suffered ma
terially through their absence from
home. Their competitors have reaped
golden rewards as result of the
present prosperous business condi-
lions and they have been deprived of
their share of that prosperity. The
families of some of them have suffer
ed more or less privation because of
their patriotic response to their coun-
try's call. Yet these men have en-
dured these things and the discon
forts and hardships of life on the bor-
der without whimpering.
And the President of the United
States apparently does not regard
their services as of sufficient value to
deserve even the slightest word of
Baltimore Sun.

c. & D. Canal

The fight for an appropriation for
the purchase of the Chesapeake ana
Delaware Canal will be waged in this
session of Congress more vigorously
than in the session of last yaer. Those
advocating making the canal part of
the inland waterway system and,
therefore, a source of military use,
propose to demand Of Congress an APP
prop. ,ation on that ground that the
enlargement of this canal as federal
ship waterway is imperatively neces-
sary on grounds of national prepared
ness.
In this fight they expect to have the
support of the Engineer Corps of the
Army, which has reported in favor of
the purchase of the canal by the Unit
ed States government and also the
support of Navy experts. who were
directed by Congress to investigate
the project from the point of mill
tary necessity in case of war. Under
resolution passed at the last session
of Congress the Secretaries of the
War and Navy Departments were
authorized to appoint committee of
Army and Navy experts to make such
an investigation and report to this
session.
A delegation of leaders in the inland
waterway movement, headed by Rep
resentatives Moore, of Pennsylvania;
Small, of New Hampshire. and Ben
nett, called on Secretary Daniels to
inquire what had been done under the
terms of this resolution. Secretary
Daniels said that his experts were not
yet ready to report but will do so
shortly. He said that he personally is
in sympathy with the project.
