Construction Of ship canal from
the Great Lakes to the sea, utilizing
the st. Lawrence river, will be widely
agitated during the coming year and
undoubtedly will be a live issue in
congress. Investigation Of the project
was authorized by congress over a
year ago. Canada took similar action
with the result that an international
joint commission was formed which is
now making surveys with a view to
reporting both to the congress of the
United States and the parliament of
Canada. as to cost and feasibility.
The organization chiefly interested in
pushing the canal is known as the
Great Lakes and st. Lawrence Tide
water association, composed Of Ii
states-nlinois, Wisconsin, Minnesota,
Michigan, Indiana, Ohio, Iowa, North
Dakota, South Dakota, Idaho, Wyom-
Ing. Montana, Colorado and Nebraska.
Active opposition has developed among
commercial organizations in New York
state and the issue promises to be
keen.

consequent lessening of production,
contributing to further increase In
prices and the cost of living. But
since responsible unionism has been
under direct attack and public senti-
ment has been aroused, the two forces
see clearing of the atmosphere and
ultimate good as q result of the fray.
Germany seems surprised and en-
deavors to muster show of indigna-
tion that the French should have
taken seriously the terms of the peace
treaty. With the movement of the
German reichswehr In unauthorized
force into the Ruhr basin (part of the
neutral zone of so kilometers on the
right bank of the Rhine) the French
promptly occupied the German cities
of Frankfort, Darmstadt, Homburg,
Hanau and D:eburg and surrounding
territory. French offlcialdom points
out that Germany had already slipped
out of ten compliances with the
treaty, the most important being fail
ure to disarm, nonpayment Of indem-
mites, no prosecution Of her war GRIM
inals and failure to deliver coal to
France; also that If permitted to get
away with such vital violation as
invasion of the neutral zone, she would
soon discard all pretenses Of living up
to the pact. 1t is further pointed out
that Noske far from reducing Ger
many's army to the point demanded
In the treaty, had really been building
up great and potent military force
from the remnants of the old army.
The French, and they are not alone in
the assertion, claim that Germany
still has 1880 cannon, and could now
mobilize more than 100000 trained
men armed with rifles, machine guns
and minenwerfer. The assertions are
tribute to German organizing eff
cheney and charge that camoufaged as
auxiliary troops. safety guards, police
men, civic guards, regulars, volunteers,
home guards, etc., the country really
has no less than 3,500,0O0 men who
can be called upon and 100000 who
could be rendered Immediately effec-
tive. Every man in the country was
recently a soldier and now each one
under Noske's genius, has become n
policeman or something similar, be-
longing to military organization and
with a complete military equipment in
his home. The French occupation has
been criticized as lacking allied sup
port, but the allies were drifting apart
on important matters before that. At
any rate. the occupation appears to
be complete so far as 1t has gone and
promises to end with a compromise
with allied supervision of German op-
erations in the Ruhr districts or full
German compliance with French
terms.

American forces have left Siberia
while Czecho-Slovaks and others are
getting out as rapidly as possible, with
the exception Of the japanese. Japan
will not leave Siberia for the present,
having on the contrary, occupied the
city Of Vladivostok and ended the
Red regime there. Prior to that had
occurred several brushes between the
Russians and Japanese, notably an
engagement March 1920, at Niko-
laevsk, in which the latter lost 700
men. Japan is said to fear the extene
sion Of boIshevik theories to Korea,
Japan itself, Manchuria and other
spheres of Japanese influence. Czecho-
Slovak officers recently arrived in this
country do not hesitate to assert the
belief that German intrigue figures in
the far Eastern situation and that ulti-
mately Germany, Russia and Japan
will reach a workable understanding
IL not an actual alliance.

Denmark having staged its demon
stration, is outwardly quiet. The net
result Of the disturbance seems to be
q distinct gain for the liberal ele-
ments, with the king considerably out
Of favor and an increased leaning Of
the people toward republic. Both
reactionism and radicalism received
setbacks; the former through the will
of the people to have the constitution
amended and strengthened, and the
latter in the failure of agitation to Sc
cure fits entire abolishment. AS a re-
suit of the troubles the king was
forced to dismiss the unpopular cab
met of NJ. Liebe and permit the forma-
ton Of new ministry headed by M.
Friis, which is considered popular
enough to endure at least until the
elections of April %.

The battle between landlords ano
tenants in the United States assumes
almost equal interest with strikes,
politics, national and international
problems. In New York recently en-
acted anti-rent-profiteerin legislation,
received its first tests with results
wholly favorable to tenants. In every
case tried evictions were defeated and
tenants were granted stay-overs Of
from one to three months when they
proved their inability to find new
homes. In Chicago and many other
cities tenants are organizing leagues
to resist what they consider unduly
increased rents. Many court battles
are impending and in some cases arbi-
tration has been invoked successfully,
resulting in some compromises and
some material reductions. Real estate
boards have acted effectively in some
instances in settling controversies and
the problem is receiving wide atten-
ton from municipal authorities and
financiers. Loan corporations with
large capital have been formed in a
number of cities to promote building
and help end the housing shortage. In
spite of all remedial measures and all
the oil being poured upon the troubled
waters, landlords and tenants are look
ing toward May 1 and other moving
days, with misgiving.

TAXI BANDITS ROB
SOLDIER ON LEAVE
Armed Men Hold Up Victim on
Parkway-Escape With
Cash and Bond
FIRST DEMANDED OVERC0AT

Private Raymond II. Bauer, of Co
lumbus, s. G., soldier on furlough,
was the victim of a daring hold-up by
taxi bandits in the shadows of the
Cathedral of SITS. Peter and Paul in the
Parkway last night.
One of the bandits. showing a re
volver in Bauer's face, first demanded
the soldiers overcoat and finally made
off with S25 in cash, Liberty bond and
pack of cigarettes.
Bauer, who is a member of the Fifty
first Supply Train, at Camp Jackson
s. c., came here Tuesday to spend part
of his furlough in sightseeing. He was
overseas twenty three months with the
First Division.
At the time of the hold up he was
hurrying along the Parkway bound for
q motion picture theatre. At Ei ght-
eenth street he saw taXicab drive hur
riedly to the curb twenty feet ahead of
him.
A man sprang out, muffled in big
fur -collared coat. When Bauer came
abreast of the man the latter showed
out heavy revolver.
''Shut up, and give me your over
coat" ordered the bandit.
Bauer protested. Then give us your
money and valuables or I'll shoot,
was the demand.
Bauer then handed over SO in cash
a Liberty bond and even pack of Gig
arettcs.
As the bandit grasped the haul and
made for the taxi, in which a driver
and ore other, man were waiting, the
soldier tried to trip the robber. but due
to the slippery sidewalk he fell him
self. and the taxi disappeared.
Bauer reported his loss to police Of
the Fifteenth and Vine streets station
District Detectives Haggerty and Mac
Farland have a good description of one
of the men and the taxi.
The number of Bauer's Liberty bono
is 4263S.

His ability as a whistler brought
Herman notoriety. In handling traffic

MEN AT navy Yard.
HOPE TO SAVE Jobs
Workmen Have Feeble Hope
Senate Will Restore Repair
Fund to Deficiency Bill
KNOX TO AID, SAYS MAYOR

While employees at the Philadelphia
Navy Yard are busy today with plans
to induce Congress to appropriate
money for the continuance of the work
there they are expecting early notice
that some Of them will be laid off.
1t is expected that 200 men will lose
their positions within few days and
that total of 1900 will be released.
Six hundred were dropped last week.
The navy yard here was to have re-
ceived 81 ,12J, 900 of the $4,000 900 ap-
preparation eliminated from the def
cheney bill, when it passed the House
Of Representatives in Washington. 1t
is now hoped that the Senate may at
tach an amendment carrying the ap-
preparation. This hope is admittedly
faint one.
Mayor Has Hope
Mayor Moore is one of those who
are looking to the Senate.
II have not given up hope" he said.
Senator Knox wrote me only a few
days ago saying that he was looking
after the appropriation and there is
SClll u possibility JnaC Cne senate may
include it in the measure. 1t would
then be debated by both houses if the
Senate takes this action. 1t is unfortu
nate that Senator Penrosc is i'll at this
time, but Senator Knox will do all he
can, [ know, to see that sufficient ap
preparation is made to keep the Phila
delphia and other yards in working con
dition.'

John s. Lynch, chairman of the ex
ecutive committee of the Philadelphia
Navy Yard Employment Association
said:
II feel that by the time the bill goes
to the Senate it will be better understood
by the public, and the naval items
may be reinstated. The American
