ABLE REPORT EXPECTED
ON MISSISSIPPI-ATLANTIC CANAL
Members of House Committee Receive In
Vulnerable Requests to Pass Bill Provid-

- ARLY report from the House
X committee on railways and
canals is promised on the bill
designed to open up a water
haul for produce from all states bor-
dering on the Mississippi river and
its tributaries to the Atlantic coast
and New York.
Members of the committee have been
besieged with letters and kilograms
from their home states. and particu-
larly the states along the Mississippi
valley from Minnesota to the gulf. and
from the big commercial centers such
as Chicago, st. Louis. Memphis and
Pittsburgh Representative Loren E.
Wheeler of Illinois. chairman of the
committee, has indicated to friends in
the House that he does not see how
the committee can avoid making a
favorable report.
The bill was introduced by Repre-
sentative Frank Clark of Florida, and
it provides that an Appropriation OF

Army engineers make three surveys

canal, sea level canal and barge canal
from the mouth of ST. Mary's river
at Cumberland sound, to a point on
the gulf coast to connect the Atlantic
ocean with the Gulf of Mexico and the
Mississippi river.
On Atlantic Seaport.
1t is pointed out by the proponents
of this measure that Cumberland
sound has 100 miles of dockage and
plan would give the inland states
along the Mississippi river and its
tributaries an Atlantic coast seaport.
1t would also obviate the passage of
ley through the warm waters Of the
gulf stream. This has heretofore
been a very serious handicap because

STRENGTH OF NATION
IN CHRISTIAN HOME
Representative Nelson Of Missouri
Paints Word Picture for His
Colleagues.

What is the abiding strength of the
nation?
Representative Nelson Of Missouri,
newspaper man and practical farmer.
painted several word pictures Of the
strength Of the nation at peace and
at war for his colleagues. He said:
Zone beautiful Sunday morning in
the autumn of 1917 stood with few
others and witnessed the memorable
review Of that noble aggregation of

men were soon to leave for France.
and as watched them pass in review,
saw the waving fage and listened to
the martial music, I was moved as

thusiasm I said. This is the strength

"A few days later I was on the wa

saw our conveyed transports loaded
with the flower Of our land. saw the
mighty floating forts. and again in
my enthusiasm 1 said, This is the
strength of the nation
But it so happened that a little
later I went back to the interior and
to farm home far removed from the
buster activities of war. 1t was an
old fashioned farm home. a big white
house with green blinds and ram
bier rose winding its way over the
front porch. 1t was a real home. the
sort Of a house that seems to have a
soul. AS the day died and as the
shadows heightened. as they were

Among the most Of them. as well as
among the great mass of people, it is
still thought that Japan must main
tain and increase her military
strength for purposes of defense. as
they express 1t. One of the most in
telligent Of the leaders Of the pro-
gressive movement told me:
"England says she must have con-
troll of the seas in order to maintain
peace. I am not 50 sure but that
means a peace altogether Of her own
making and of her own liking. She
is to have ownership or control of

Anti-Militarist sentiHent.
On the other hand. there are many
members of the diet, leading edu-
Gators and prominent fnanciers and
business men who deplore the ram
pant military ambitions Of their
countrymen. Leaders in foreign
trade and industry. many of whom
have for a long time resided in the

nize that their country must avoid

people. Mr.. Inouye, president of the
interview opposed the methods adopt
ed Of obtaining concessions on the
continent of Asia. To an onlooker it
would seem that the influence Of
those who hold similar opinions is in
creasing.
It must be said that Japan has done
much less in adopting modern ideas
of popular government than in util-
izing foseign methods. which afford
military strength and prosperity in
trade and industry. The success of
the movement for moro liberal insti-
tutions and ministerial responsible
ity, which has been 90 notable~a fea-
ture almost everywhere in recent

Of awakening among her own people.
and in no small measure upon the
success of newly established demo-
cratic governments elsewhere.
