NATIONAL RIVERS. AND HAIR
BORIS CONGRESS.
Declarations Of Principals Adapted
DEE. 10th, 1920.

The National Rivers and Harbor.
Congress, assembled in the City OF
Washington, at its sixteenth annual
session, and represented by delegate:
from all sections Of the country, sub.
mits the. following declaration of ii
policies, purposes and desires.
A National Organization
This is national organization to
promote and increase the facilities
for and use of transportation by
water. 1t stands for a policy and
not project. It is national in spirit
and not sectional.
Production, Distribution and
Terminals.
The ever increasing productiveness
Of the country necessitates an in
crease in its transportation facili-
ties-railway, waterway and high
way-which must be coordinated.
Therefore, terminals, including ply
steal connections between these
transportation facilities, must be pro-
vided by states and localities, as re-
quired by the. Federal Government.
Cooperation is urged between the.
United States Engineers and local
authorities in planning of such termi-
mails, so that harbor lines as estab-
lished and facilities provided by the
Federal Government md by local
authorities shall be fully coordin-
ated.
Recent Progress in Legislation
We commend the action of Con-
gress in the enactment of the Trans
portation Act of 1920, in so far as it
includes many of the recommends
tons of this organizantionin the in
terest Of water transportation.
We are also grateful to Congress
for itssaction in the passage of a
water power bill, which is an initial
step toward the legislation recon-
mended by this organization.
Comprehensive Waterways Plan.
We urge upon Congress the adop-
ton, with as little delay as possible,
of a plan for the entire c'a.' :ry of a
comprehensive system Of waterways,

rivers and canals With rlay be re-
garded as trunk-line channels of a
general national system of water
the work on these main
lines to be prosecuted as rapidly as
possible so as to permit their prompt
use.
Use of Waterways
We call the earnest attention Of
she people Of the country to the fact
hat the navigable waterways are in
ended primarily for commerce, and
he expenditure of public moneys for
heir Improvement can only be justi-
led when they are to be used for this
purpose. We again cirque the use Of
he waterways to the fullest, possible
sxtent.
Prosecution Of Authorized Work
The vital need Of increased trans
Dortations facilities demands the ear
lest possible completion of all, pro-
ects approved by The u. S. Engineers

therefore urge that theCongress APP

My mind reverts instantly To the
days when You were q struggling
-oung man in Richmond, quiet, un~
cbtrusive, industrious. honest, true
and courteous. I recall your hard
work in the postoflicc, your study of
law between times and your general
excellence Of conduct all the while.
Ny admiration for such unusual self
supporting methods as you persisted
in using, now rcvivcS in my mind.
and | write you my heartfelt sympa
thy. Truly, in such Il trial, your
faith in God may be shaken, but
would warn you that the only Perfect
human being OH carth-eXcept Christ,
tho nehuman-Wa the most af
ficted of all Of Gods crcatures--Job
Last night | read what God called
Jo5-the PERFECT man, MY ser
want, job. For Gods sake, Dan, do
not rebel at this strange dispensation
Of Providence. BE patient, murmur
not Trust in God. He knows why
he did this inscrutable thing to his
servant Dan Il - Wallace. Keep
sweet. Through your leaden eyes,
let only tears of trust flow, for faith
is accounted unto us for righteous
ness. Let some good minister ex-
plain this last sentence to you, if you
want real consolation. In the last 81
years | have tried to firmly believe
that every great crisis in my life has
been Divinely ordered, and l have
said "Thy Will be done" Submissive
ness is akin to faith, think. So,
Dan, be patient, be submissive, and
if restoration is not to come to you,
think what a reward shall be at the
end of an otherwise hapIess journey
to the end-the end that is bound to
come. My warm regards. You have
been Il good boy and an honor to your
family and state. Yours truly,
