NEW YORK, Feb. 5:-With more
than 5000 delegates registered the
Atlantic Congress for League of Ma
tions began q two days session here
today. The congress is under the
auspices of the League TO Enforce
Peace and its branches in New York,
New Jersey. Pennsylvania, Delaware.
Maryland, Virginia and West Vir-
ginia. 1t is the first of a series of
nine congresses to be held this month
throughout the country.
To assure the formation of a
strong" league of nations and the
acceptance of such league by the
United States senate, il was an
nounced that plans will be outlined
campaign reaching every city and
town In the country.
Ex-President William II. Taft, as
president OF the League to Enforce
Peace, called the congress TO order
and delivered the keynote address.
The familiar general topic OF the
morning session was The plain
necessity for n League OF Nations.
and that OF the afternoon session was
american interests and League of
Nations"
The necessity of having the league
of nations possess legislative as well
as judicial power was emphasized by
Norman Hapgood. president OF the
League OF Free Nations Association,
who said from the beginning many
radicals had feared it would be a mere
protection of the status quo" in var
ious countries with a record "some-
thing like that of the Holy Alliance"
If President Wilson wins on his
point that the German colonies ought
TO be managed by the league. lit
means that the functions OF the league
would be Legislative" said Mr.. Hap
good. The speaker saw the need OF
representatives OF the league meeting
from time TO time ito settle the de-
veloping aspects OF such big questions
as the control OF colonies would in

EXPRESSES HOPE
Of ACTION SOON
ON SHIP CANAL
AsSemblyman Warner Tells OF
Project a Meeting of Trade
Board Directors

That the New Jersey ship canal,
extending from Cheesequake creek to
Bordentown, will be started within a
very short space of time was the
message brought TO the directors OF
the Board OF Trade last night by
Assemblyman l.. A. Warner. of Eliz-
abeth, when this question was
brought mp for discussion. The dis
cussion was prolonged to such an eI-
tent that the organization meeting
was postponed until future date.
Assemblyman Warner presented
maps and other data from Trenton
showing all the details concerning
the cross state canal and said he be-
lieved tsat the present legislature
will pass the necessary appropriation
OF $1,000, 900 with which TO purchase
the necessary land. According to AS
semblyman Warner 100000 will be
available this year and 100000 next
year.
There is already a law under which
the land needed for the canal. which
has been surveyed and staked out.
can be condemned and purchased by
the state. following which procedure
the lnnd is decided TO the United
States government, who will furnish
the money and build the canal.
The idea is 20 get the canal started
as soon as possible and I'm this way
give returning soldiers and sailors en-
ployment as well as TO relieve freight
traffic into New York. The canal is
also being urged as plan Of defense
by the naval authorities, as IL VIII
make an ideal path for the smaller
types of war vessels coming from the
Delaware river 10 Raritan Bay and
the Atlantic Ocean.
Nothing can be done however, until
the New Jersey assembly arrives at n
point where il can elect a speaker ana
organize and I'm order 20 bring the
necessity OF the canal TO the people
and farmers OF the outlaying districts.
a committee IS TO be appointed by
President I. n. Madsen OF the Board
of Trade, to cooperate with other com
mittees and societies who are forward
ing the movement for the canal and
organize the towns 20 be benefited by
the new water way. so that the people
benefited will bring the matter TO the
attention OF the assembly and senate
with the least possible delay.
For the past six years the Board or
Trade has been interested In this pro-
tect and Jean Dubois. the FIRST vice
president. has represented the organi-
zation at various meetings and hear
ings held on the matter throughout
the various states interested.

Washington, July 21.-President Wilson was in weakened, but not serious condition, after having spent the day in bed. Rear-Admiral Cary T. Grayson, his personal physician, said the president had been in consid- erabIe pain during the day and had been very uncomfortable. Admiral Grayson said he would insist that Mir. Wilson remain in bed until he had completely recovered.
 The presidents appointment for to- morrow with republican senators had not been postponed tonight, but at the white house, it was considered ex- tremely doubtful whether Mir. Wilson would be able to. keep them.
 His illness may result in the post ponement of his trip in the west, ana Rear-Admiral Grayson was uncertain when the president might be able to resume his duties.
 The president first complained of feeling ill Friday, when he went to the capitol to confer with Senator Hitchcock of Nebraska, ranking de- m0cratic member of the foreign re- lations committee. He told Secretary Tumulty. then he was slightly indis- posed and expressed intention of go- ing down the Potomac over the week. end, in the belief that change of air might be beneficial.
