SPEAKERS.
(By the Associated Press)

Chicago, Oct IAN address by
Major General George w. Goethals,
builder Of the Panama canal. was the
chief event today on the program Of
the ninth annual convention of the
American Association Of Port Al.
thorities.
Particular stress has been placed
by the delegates on waterways from
the great lakes to the gulf and through
the st. Lawrence, and speakers yes
terday predicted that great lakes har-
bors would soon become great world
ports
John NJ. Glenn, secretary Of the Hi
nois Manufacturers, said: Men of
vision can see the time when deem
draft ocean liners will cast their haw-
sers as daily matter Of course ov 7
the mo0ring posts at great lakes har
bors"
Thousands of lighter vessels he
went on, will come up the Missis
sippi from New Orleans and the Gulf
of Mexico from Central and South
America, from the South Sea and the
Antipodes. European carriers will
coyage UP the st. Lawrence and will
return with grain from the almost ia
exhaustable stores Of the Mississippi
valley.
The estimated cost of devclopins
the great lakes route was placed at
maximum Of s120,000,000. This sum
would be expended principally for cut
ting connecting canals and erecting
locks
"One-half at least of the cost of
transportation and the congestion of
our present system are due to the fact
that we have neglected the economic
development of our Waterways Mr.,
Glenn asserted
Now that the railroad transportd
ton costs have become excessively
high and 1t has become easily appar
ent that the rails cannot accommodate
more than small percentage of the
traffic, the only thing left is to devel. |
ppe the waterways.
Those short sighted individuals |
who believe that the future transpor-
tatiOn needs of the Mississippi valley |
can be cared for by the railroads |
alone, those short sighted individuals |
who believe that the future transpoc.

will be extinct. and they are urging
the passage of the bill, claiming that
the young Holsters must not be taken
from the water. but allowed TO ma
