WHAT THE PROJECT INVOLVES

According to the Washington In
formation the dredging work on the
tshristiana, II is understood. will in
volve an expenditure of about $780,
600, and although the Board Of En-
gineers of the War Department sp-
proved the project, the money for this
work will not be ayailsbie until action
II taken by Congress. 1t will be an
item included In the River and Har-
borr bill. In view of the action at
Washington. yesterday. there is
every reason to believe that the meas
ure will be passed at the next session
of Congress without trouble.
The dredging is contemplated for
about one mile, extending from the
mouth of the Christiana to the LobdelI
canal. A width of 400 feet is proposed
at the mouth. with the projected
depth OF IS feet The dredged section
will widen out to point abreast the
city quay wall to a breadth OF 1000
feet and contracting to 500 feet at the
L1obdell canal 1t is expected that
about a year and half will be requir-
ed for the completion OF the dredging.
The wide section opposite the city
quay wall will permit the large ocean
going steamships to turn around with
out trouble.
The dredging will necessarily come
under the jurisdiction of the local u.
s. engineers Office, which has main
tenance and Improvement of the
Christiana under its jurisdiction.

HOW TO PREVENT CRIME.
Begin With Children, Is the Advice oil
Chicago Woman LAWYER.

Pearl Hart, one of the best known
criminal lawyers in Chicago, says that
II as much effort were expended in
trying to prevent crime as is now used
to punish ii, the necessity for punish
ment would be removed.
For some reason or other I have
always had a criminal law practice and
therefore 1 have made quite a study Of
the psychology of crime said Miss
Hart. From my observation and my
study of the matter. l am convinced
that there is a reason for every crime
and very good reason. which is not
to be dismissed by merely saying a
person is a born criminal. IL crime.
were considered a disease instead of a
desire to do wrong. 1 think society
would be in much better shape than il
ever has been.
The great crin,inologists and psy-
biologists declare that the tendency to
crime can be detected in its early
stages. and I think that every child of
school age should be examined as TO
his inclinations and mental ability and
as to whether he reacts normally or
abnormalIy to certain tests The skill
tt pSyCnofo& ~ III ackS(N young
child whether or not he has possible
criminal tendencies and when such are
found to exist, that child sAould lie
given special treatment Instead Of
punishment. He should be transferred
to a farm colony or to some instisu-
ton where he can be taken care os and
trained in a way that will protect
society from what would undoubtedly
follow II he were left to his own de-
vices or to bad home influences.
so many people who come into
court are mental detectives from BIRTH
The trouble Is that this condition IS
usually not detected until after the
crime has been committed. II we
were to use as much effort 10 pre-
vent crime as we do to punish II, the
necessity for punixhment would bc re-
moved. The human element should
always be considered. Because boy
or girl is convicted OF some crime
against society. we should not harden
our hearts against all children who
have not had the advantages that we
have had of hereditary. home and edu-
cation

Or than : political conference. the
things and persons most needed were

said.
| While mono OF the Harbor Commits
sioners would talk concerning the

lieved that members OF city Council
should frst be informed about the
results. there was no way OF confirm

From reliable information received.
however, 1t In learned that the engi-
neers and commissioners agreed on %
25-foot channel at low tide. This
will accommodate 90 per cent OF the
boats that would want To come here.
II there Ii need for deeper channel.
the engineers tentatively agreed 20
increase the depth to 30 feet. Stats
ties show that not over 10 per cent
OF the vessels passing through the
Panama Canal draw more than 2s
feet of water. General Manager TAFT
of the Furness- Wythe steamship
lines, with headquarters In Philadel-
phia, told City Council at the con-
ference held last Wednesday even

Philadelphia needed more than s5 feet

Iiarbors bill. that the government
should bear an OF the expense of dredg
ing the channel to the depth of 2a

With this accomplished the other
details relating to the harbor were
quickly agreed upon. The question OF
maintenance was soon settled. the
matter of bulkheads and jetties were
satisfactorily decided and at the con-
c;usion OF the conference the engi-
neers told The local commissioners. IL

greater concessions from the Federal
authorities than any other port for
many years.

Government to pursue the strictest
economies during the next fiscal year
Ii was agreed that the Revenue bill
would be reported to Republican
House conference by next Monday and
taken up for consideration in the House
shortly afterward. The bill. Republi-
can Leader MondeTl said, could be
passed by the House and all other
necessary measures disposed of by Aug.
90, at which time Congress plans to
take an adjournment for from four to
six weeks.
Indications are that the bill to auth
orize the War Finance Corporation to
raise money TO meet the claims of the
railroads will not be acted upon finally
by Congress until after the recess, al
though every effort will be made to
pass it in the House before adjourn
ment.
1t was possible to reduce the amount
which the Revenue bill would carry

only by deciding upon carrying over
some of the war debt and reducing the
