PLANSFOR
'RAR|TAN' CANAL
N. YIN. ]. Port and Harbor De-
veIopment Commission viii
Report on Feasibility

The enormous possibilities OF indus
trial development n transferance Of
freight routing dependent upon the
construction OF the New Jersey link
OF he intercoastal canal which Is
planned to cross the state d~iagona1iy
from Baritan bay just south of Perth
Amboy to the Delaware river south
of Trenton, have been tabulated by In
vestigators OF the ~. YIN. J. Port
and Harbor Development Commission
and will form an important item In
the official report which the commits
sion is to make to the legislatures OF
the two states.
The Delaware and Raritan canal
has been carrying an average OF
the ten-year period ending just after
the United States entered the war.
During the past year this tonnage
has been largely increased and would
very likely have been more than
doubled X its capacity for big carriers
were greater.
The ~inadequacy of the "Raritan'
canal is due to Its shallowness. An
estimated volume of 10, 900, 900 tons
now carried by railroads and 1 0,00e.-
900 tons carried by coastwise carriers
over the outside route can be. conf
denly looked for when the "Raritan"
cana lis deepened and widened and
made a part of the intercoastal canal
system.
The economic importance repre-
scented by the transfer of this large
freight tonnage from rail to water Is
due to the fact that water Transport
tation costs less than one-half the
amount by rail basing the difference
upon freight charges under pre-war
ratings.
Under the plans completed and now
awaiting federal action. 1t Is provided
that the canal shall have a uniform

A British pilot, flying in France
from one airdrOme to another, was
the last machine of a flight Of five
which struck across country and soon
afterward ran into clouds. He lost
sight of the other machines.
He looked around and saw several
black specks. Thinking they were
his companions he turned round and
flew toward them. When he drew
near they dlved, firing their machine
guns. He fed.
His compass showed that he was
flying east-away from his W lines.
He flew on for 20 minutes, holly pur-
sued, and at last outdistanced the
Germans. Not knowing he was well
over German occupied territory, he
turned once more and flew due west
for half an hour.

He then throttled down and drifted
slowly down through the sunllt cloud
barrier. He saw a group of hangers
some 10 or 10 miles away and began
to land. To his amaZement he saw
that all the machines were marked
with the black cross. The Germans
began firing while the excited me-
chanics began to swing the ~propellers
In order to start up the airplanes.
The airman realized that a consid-
cradle wind had been blowing from
the west and had carried him far be-
hind the lines and he had not allowed
himself enough time before he dived
through the clouds.
Meanwhile he flew on, pursued holly
fol- the second time, and drew near
the lines. Ahead of him he could see
a cloudy turmoil of smoke and burst
ing shells and flying earth. A
big attack was evidently In progress.
The air was full of the white puffs of
the shrapnel breaking low over the
troops. Straight toward this mael-
strom he flew and soon machine guns
on the ground began to fire flaming
bullets at him. So low was he that
the barrage blazed all around him.

the French cure in charge of st. Gre
pins church in that quaint little city

few days ago.
Before the Germans abandoned the
place to the storming Yanks they re-
moved every candle and even the bits
of partially burned candles from the
church, and, In addition, took the an
dies which the nuns used in the Hotel
Dieu, their little hospital there. The
cure says the Huns must nave secured
about 400 pounds of candles in the two
religious edifices.
In addition to stealing all the can
dies, the Huns stole the sacred vessels
from the church and chapel, took away
the bronze candlesticks which had been
there for years, and even cut the leath-
err from the interior of the big pipe or
gan and carried that away. The pipes
! OF the organ were twisted so that the
instrument was rendered useless, and
the vestments of the cure and his as
sistant were fouled by Ludendorff's
hordes.

German prisoners recently stated that
they had been given orders to collect
every bit of fat they could to be sent
back to Germany. The prisoners admit
ted that the shortage there was more
acute than Ii had ever been.
Father Horton, through the Knights
of Columbus, supplied the French cure
