RECORDER SAYS
OFFICE RUSHED
Delay Inevitable i'm Return of Sol
der Discharge Papers, De-
Gares Sam RyersOn.

Because of the fact that this is
the time of year when the office OF
county recorder has more to occupy
attention than any other, soldiers
who leave their discharge papers
there for recording can not be as
sured Of having them returned in
less than two, or three weeks. Sam
Ryerson, recorder, said today.
I'VE are frequently urged to
hurry the recording because some
soldier needs his bonus money and
he desires to send in his proof of
discharge" said the recorder at is
impossible for US to act upon such
requests. One wants his money as
much as another and all matters for
record are taken in the order in
any other time"
March brings to the office of the
recorder the greater part of the
real estate transfers of the year,
and the office is overloaded with
work
There has been an erroneous re-
port that the recording of soldier
discharges is done at the office of
the county clerk. This is an error
that has made much trouble for the
latter official
The recorder Iai obtained a sup
ply of new boots for this registra-
ton, and alre2G more discharges
have been recorded for soldiers of
this war than were recorded in all
for Spanish war veterans.

TERMINALS TO BE DISCUSSED
Experts VIII Talk on HarbOr Facn.
ties and Need of a Standard
System.

City officials and representatives
of the Chamber of Commerce to-
day received invitations to attend
the second annual convention of the
Mississippi Valley Waterways as
SOciation which will be held in ST.
Louis, at the StatIer hotel, on April
II and IS.
The following notice has been sent
out by the association, Of which
James E Smith is president:
The chief subject for discussion
at the convention will be the deVeI-
opment of foreign trade, the estab-
nShment of a merchant marine, and
the utilization Of our inland water
, ways. The use of the Mississippi
river and its navigable tributaries
in carrying to the gulf ports the
products OF this great productive
area of the United States has be-
come question of vital Importance
to the people of the entire Mississ-
1pp1 valley. The governors of all of
the valley states are urgently re-
quested to attend the convention
and lend the weight of their pres
ence and counsel in solving the i'm
portant problem Of restoring de-
pendable traffic upon our valley
waterways. Therefore, the chief ex-
ecutiye of each OF the states in the
Mississippi valley is invited to at
tend in person, and also to appoint
20 or more delegates to represent
his state at the convention.
we desire all commercial organ
fzations Of the Mississippi basin to
be represented at the convention,
and request them to send strong
delegations Of shippers and bust
ness men to participate in its pro-
ceedings. Now that a strong senti-
ment. favOring the improvement
and use of our inland waterways.
prevails throughout the United
States, the time is ripe and oppor-
tune for US to push our plans to a
successful contamination
I'VE shall have speakers of ma
tional reputation who will address
the convention, and we hope to
make it the most important meeting
of its kind that will ever have been
held in the Mississippi Valley.
Need Terminals.
In considering the question of
the restoration of river transporta-
ton the necessity for modern
terminals is an apparent need.
This subject will be discussed by
experts, and its discussion will be
an important feature of the conven-
ton 1t is our desire that the may
ors OF all the cities located on the
Mississippi river and its navfgabIe
tributaries shall attend the conven-
ton and take part in the discussion
with the view of agreeing upon |
some plan for the establishment of |
a standard system of terminals for |
all ports in the valley. The mayors |
of all cities are also requested to |
attend the convention.
Our efforts of the past two years
have borne good fruit We have /
have made distinct progress in fur
thering the cause of water trans |
portatjon in the Mississippi valley.
and now is the time for US to strike |
our hardest blows in order that we |
may not lose the advantages thus
dar gained. Let US all get together
and work together until our cause |
is completely Won"
