Wateru ay Transportation.

Advocates of a coastal system of water
WAYS have no lack of impressive arguments.
The inability of the railroads to handle the
tremendous volume of war traffic, and the
warning from U-boat raids just off our shores,
point plainly to the need of safe
guarding the future. chain of coastal
waterways from the Gulf of Mexico to
New England would relieve the roads of
vast deal of heavy hauling and would assure
he safety and freedom of coastwise shipping
in the event of a graver marine peril than the
pirate Huns could create.
Aside from the contingencies of war, the
material interests of peace times call for
development of water transportation. With
a constant increase of productive industries,
the countrys traffic grows faster than the
facilities for handling it, Economy and con-
venience alike urge a wider use of navigable
streams as one means of meeting these null
tiplying demands, and urge also the con-
struction of canals where necessary and
feasible The fact is, all means of transpor-
tation-highways, railroads, rivers and
canals-should be developed to serve the
nations ever expanding industry and COM
merce.
River projects for this purpose, provided
of course they are approved by sound en-
cheering judgment, merit special considera-
alton because it is frequently the case that
the same general line of Improvements which
will make a stream navigable will also make
its power resources available, thereby pro-
noting at once the industrial and transpor-
tation interests of region. The subject
promises to bulk large in the remainder of
this session of Congress, and certainly there
are few matters of more practical concern
to the country.

Many of them may not understand why the

securities, such as those of New York City.
that bring smaller returns sell at decidedly
higher price.
The explanation is that many persons, in
their patriotism, bought more Liberty bonds
than they were able to carry and have been
forced TO dispose of them. Other persons,
through one vicissitude or another, have
been compelled to have money at once and
to get it, have sacrificed their Liberty bonds

Alta ruesday-wednesday.

Most melodramas have one big
thrill. 1.-THE Lone Wolf" Herbert
Brenon's latest Selznick- Picture,
breaks all records by containing no
less than three big incidents. any one
of which would be sufficient to form
the nucleus for single production.
This photo-melodratna will be the at
tfaction at the Alta theater Tuesday.
The first of the spectacular episodes
Is the burning of a big hotel by the
Paris Apaches to conceal a murder.
The second is a race between two au-
tomobiles through the streets at
breakneck speed, concluding with one
of the machines leaping fifty feet
into a river through an opening draw
bridge. The third is three-cornered
fight in the air between aeroplanes
racing across the English channel
There are many other strenuous mo-
ments in the story, which is best de-
scribed as multiple melodrama de
luxe. A remarkable cast is headed
by Hazel Dawn and Bert LytelL The
story is from the novel of the same
name by Louis Joseph Vance.

the capture of notorious band OF
Mexicans who defy all laws and gov
ernmental warnings.
Fairbanks Is an expert horseman,
and his riding scenes at the head of
two hundred cowboys are intended to

ground for "Headin South" disclos-
ing views of conditions that will cause
endless comment.
Those who believe in seeing Am

fled with the scenery that makes
"Headin South" the most distinctive
film of the season Considerable ex-
pense was attached to transporting
over two hundred cowboys and Mex

results attained more than justified
the expenditure.

leading female role, with Frank Cam

 Belgium has issued a declaration calling attention to the systematic sacking and destruction by the ene- my, and saying that from the coast to beyond Bruges the entire male population between the ages of 15 and 45 has been brutally treated while being compelled to work for the military needs of the German army. A demand is made that the Germans be warned to stop their cru city and destruction while evacuat- ing the country.
