FOR POOR RIVERS
Senator Reed of Missouri
Hits Executives Failure to
Seek Improved Waterways.
BY the Associated Press.

BY the Associated Press
ST. LOUIS, September SENATOR
Reed, Democrat, Missouri. laid blame
for the unimproved interior water
ways at the door of President Coolidge
in an address last night TO a st. Louis
County meeting of Missouri Demo-
Gratis. The Senator said a program
to aid river transportation would lin
the space of few years give st.
Louis a population of from 100000
to 5000 900 in habitants"
He pointed out that States between
the Allegheny and Rocky Mountains
would have a great avenue to market
products at low freight rates through
the Panama Canal to the West Coast
if the comprehensive river transpor-
tation system were undertaken by the
Federal Government.
1T Is true that Congress has the
power of appropriation, but it is like
wise true that the executive depart
ment has always dealt with the prob
lem of, river improvement in a
miserly and shortsighted way. The
chief engineers, who make the esti-
mates. have been dragooned into cut
ting them to the very bone.
The fact that the last river and
narpof Dill dld not carry Sufnclent
appropriation speedily to drive to com
pletion the improvements of the Mis-
sissippi. Missouri. Ohio and other
streams can be laid directly to the
door of the President himself.
The ma aiority of Congress undouht-
edly wanted TO pass provision di-
recting that the projects already ad-
vocated should be completed within
period of five years. That provision
was killed at the direct command of
Calvin Coolidge"
Senator Reed said that the canal
must be brought TO the Middle West
through the improvement of the Mis-
sissippi, Missouri and Ohio rivers.

holders Proposed as "Key
to Social Control"
BY the Associated Press.

NEW YORK. September S.-Poli,
tics is being viewed through the eyes
Of science by more than 100 college
professors and experts who are at
tending the third annual meeting of
the national conference on the science
of politics. Round-table discussions
were begun today with view TO
placing politics on a more scientific
basis.
What we want to do is to find a
method of controlling ,political beha-
vior,' said DR.. Arnold Bennett Hall
of the University of Wisconsin, who is
chairman of the conference.
Millions for Soap Ad.
The two things that probably af-
feet us most, religion and politics. we
study least. We spend millions to
find out how the public reacts to a
soap advertisement, but nothing to
know how 1t reacts TO political prop
aganda.
Everybody wants peace, yet the
forces for war go right ahead. We
have not been learning to control our
selves with regard to our behavior in
political and international matters
We have been doing it in business,
for business has reduced to a science
the problem of getting the right man
for the job, but politics has not.
This is the problem. of the sci
ence of politics. This requires sci
entific knowledge of political behav-
ior that will give us the key to social
control. 1t requires the contributions
OF psychology, pathology. anthropol-
ogy and biology and all other dis
ciplines, that are concerned with the
study of the Individual or the group.
We breed stock TO accomplish cer-
tain designated ends. Why can't we
breed human beings to fit into the
needs of modern politics ?'
Among the topics to be discussed
during. the conference, to continue
through September IL, are the char
table activities of political parties,
political tendencies among negroes
who have migrated to Northern cities
in the last 10 years. the politician s
study of human motives and effect of
the election of judges on a non par
tisan ballot.
The conference Is being held under
the joint auspices of Columbia Uni
versity and the National Institute of
Public .Administra ton
Almost every State university In
the country is represented at the
conference. There also are many
civic experts in attendance.
