NEW YORK. June 9.-Thomas W.
Lamont. chairman of the American
committee for China famine fund. has
teiegraphed all local committees in

tions. as Sufficient funds had been

trlbutions in excess of estimates, the
cablegram added.
Subscriptions made through the
fund to date totaled $4.374,206. with
smaller amounts yet to be reported.
This sum. in addition to $1,000, 900
contributed by the Red Cross sl25O.-

tions went to the rescue.

rail congestion. which was demon
strated during the late war, were con-
siderations laid before the Navy
resentations was that the Navy de-
cided to call for new bids.
Bidding was spirited on the second

participating, but the canal interests
submitted the lowest bid.
Representative Zihlman. who was
responsible for the government keep
ing the canal in operation during the
war. said today that he believed the
waterway would now enter period

give it new Importance as trade ar
tery.
