THAT NEW CANAL TO AID NEW YORK

II ls not too widely known that the Canadian government Is spend ing s100,0o0, ,oo0 to improve the Welland canal. which is only 20 miles from American soil and will permit vessels of 25-foot draft to float between Lake Erie and Lake Ontario, negotiating the 326 feet drop by means of seven locks. In building this improved waterway the Canadian government is be- lieved 10 be acting upon the sup position that the st. Lawrence wa terWay will materialize and the inn provement of the Welland canal will be just that much less to con- struct later.
 But certain commercial interests in New York are highly indignant at the prospect of a St. Lawrence waterway which might tend to lower the prestige of New York harbor. They may be right that the cost of the project would be more than the available traffic would justify, or they may be wrong about if. But their action In zeal ously furthering the construction of the Oswego- Hudson canal un. doubtedly Is little less than an at tempt to take advantage of the Canadian governments improve ment of the Welland canal.
 The New Workers want ships after they have passed through the Welland canal, to reach the Hud' son through the projected water way from Oswego south. The lat ter waterway of course would bt unthinkable as an economic neces slty without the Weland canal.
 The Canadian government Is no entirely enthusiastically inclined; l would not have desired to improv' the Welland canal in order to hell shipping at New York. But wha the New Workers overlook is tha the Wnland canal is entirel within Canada and 1t would b within the power of Canada t hamper shipping through 1t wit onerous tolls, especially America shipping. There is "too much NeI York" In the viewpoint of Ne7 York shipping interests toward in terior canal improvements.
 The water-borne commerce C the Great Lakes is of such an i'm mensc total that New York is find Ing 1t hard to maintain its lea over inc most important lake DOT Figures just announced show tha the cargo tons of water shipment at New York in 1924 totalled 4S

G. 0. P. DISCIPLINARY
MEASURES HALTED
Committee on Patronage Forbidden
to Reduce Personal Allowances
to Denoted Senators.

Senate Republicans in conference
yesterday decided against a proposal
for reduction of the patronage OF
four insurgents read out of the party
councils and removed from their
former rank on the standing com
mittees.
Under the established practice
each Senator is allotted so much per
year for personal appointees to posi-
tions in and around the Capitol, and
there had been a suggestion that
since Senators La Toilette of Wis
consin, Ladd and Frazier of North
Dakota. and Brookhart of Iowa were
treated by the majority organization
as though they had been elected on
ticket other than the Republican,
their patronage should be reduced.
The committee on patronage put
the matter up to the conference. SEN
ator Jones of Washington, the Re-
publican whip" and Willis of Ohio,
took the lead in insisting that no ac-
tion be taken. expressing the opinion
that the party organization had gone
far enough in "disciplining" the four
insurgents for their opposition to the
candidacy of President Coolidge last
November.

Coolidge Assures New Ger.
man Ambassador of His
Friendly Cooperation.

When Baron Ago Won Nathan, the
new German Ambassador to the
United States, formally presented his
credentials to President Coolidge in
the blue room of the White House
yesterday afternoon. the latter as
sured him of the support and conf
dence of this Government.
The new ambassador was assum-
ing his post "at a time when Ger
many is once more set in the path
of prosperity and peace" the Presi-
dent pointed out. and he took oc
casion also to pay tribute to the
late President Ebert of the German
Republic
You come to America at time
when your nation mourns the death
of its first President, a man of splendid
integrity, of tact and of broad hu-
man sympathy" President Coolidge
said. president Ebert had the su-
premely difficult task of guiding the
German Republic during its first
troubled years. of reconciling oppos-
ing factions, of inspiring courage at
home and rebuilding confidence
abroad. He succeeded because his
vision was clearly fixed on right and
duty because he was a man natur-
ally of great ability and had within
him the power of growth which made
He succeeded also because he had
the support of men Of good will
Glad TO Help Germany.
"It is for you to interpret to
America The just aspirations of your
nation, to promote the understanding
which is the only sound basis of
lasting peace. That the United States
has had the privilege to help in the
rebuilding of Germany Is a cause of
satisfaction to us all"
Asserting that the United States
had repeatedly given evidence to my
country of its understanding and con-
t,dence," Baron Won Maltzah added:
AT the same time I gratefully re-
call the generous activities of Ameri-
can citizens in social and cultural
help, and the far-seeing work of fl
nancial and economic contraction,
bearing an American name which has
become historical" His last order
from President Ebert, the Ambassa-
dor told Mr.. Coolidge, directed him
to express his high personal esteem
and his sincere wish for the welfare
of the United States.
