TO HELP WATERWAYS.
Director Hines Hopes to co-0rdi'
nate Rail Service With Them.

Public interest III inland waterways
should be strengthened, Walker d.
Hines, director general Of railways.
said in a communication 20 Senator
Fletcher of Florida, just made public.
Mir. Hines said he desired to co-or-
dinate the means of transportation.
giving to the waterways their snare
of the service. Mr.. Hines said the
railways should be feeders for the
inland waterways, and vice versa. He
directed attention to the policy pre-
vailing before the government as
sumed control of the roads. saying
that in those days the railroads were
not interested in bringing the two
systems together.
Il am a firm believer in the policy
that the great inland waterways OF
the country can be made economically
very useful. and that means should
be found of making them of more
benefit to the nation than they have
been in the past Mr. Hines said. in
his letter to Senator Fletcher.
