Republican Chairman Leader
in Demand For Appropriation
of S56, 589,91O Instead of
S37,0o0,00o, as Provided
For Waterway Appropriation
WOULD RELIEVE SERIOUS
INTERIOR JAM, He SAYS
Ascribe Vast Idle Sea Ton
mage to Inability of Rail-
roads to Carry Shipments
For Which There Is Ready
Market in Foreign Lands

WASHINGTON, Jau. 16.-The
fight of the rivers and harbors bloc
to increase the waterways appro-
priations in the army bill broke in
the House late today when Chair
man Dempsey of the rivers and har-
bors committee, announced he
would offer an amendment increas-
ing the item from $37000,000 to
S56,589,910. This, he said, had
been recommended by the army engi-
neers.
Basing his plea on the needs of
transportation, Mr.. Dempsey urged
the necessity of immediate improve
ment of the inland waterways and
the coast harbors in order to make
them available for transportation to
relieve the congestion of freight
movement and to take care of what
he described as a national crisis"
fraught with grave danger to the
agricultural and industrial interests
of the country.
The transportation congestion is
in the interior of the country" Mr..
Dempsey said "a vast tonnage on
the sea is idle partly because of the
depression in Europe, but also by
reason Of the inability of the rail-
roads to carry shipments for which
there is ready market abroad. 1t
is clear, both from statistics and
from the best expert opinion that
the situation can only be relieved
by increasing the facilities of water
transportation in the interior"
Saving In Mississippi System
Mr. Dempsey said handful" of
government-owned boats operating on
the Mississippi river carried over 600,-
600 toys of freight last year at an
average saving of $1.35 per ton to
the shipper and consumer, and showed
a clear profit over deprecia ton and
operating cost to the government.
Work on the Mississippi should
have been completed last year" he
continued. but here under the in
creased appropriation only S2,000.O0o
is allotted to this project. At the rate
contemplated it will take many years
to finish it,
ON the Ohio, Mr.. Dempsey said.
where $65, 900. 900 has been expended
and only third of the channel COM
pleted. there is a loss of S4.000,00V a
year in interest.
"The wholly insufficient amount
proposed by the bill" he said, would
only take care of maintenance
charges and sea coast harbors. leav-
ing inland rivers of such vital impor-
lance to the transportation needs of
the nation practically without funds"
Chairman Anthony of the appro-
priations subcommittee which framed
the bin said the committee had in
creased the budget figures by $ts,-
10000. and that with s12,000,000 on
hand all necessary work could be
done. He said that, estimating the
working year at 3l2 days, the appro-
priation carried by the bill was all
that the engineers advantageously
could expend.
