and Arkansas. An advisor from Texas
estimates that there is demand for
10000 cotton picl1ers in that state.
St. Louis reports an influx Of workers
during the last few months-most of
them from the North. Colored fam
lilies are leaving St. Paul because of
lack of industrial opportunities. Two
factories there which had promised to
try a few co1ored workers now say
that they cannot take them on at this
time.
Discrimination
Colored walters in Pershing Palace,
Chicago, were replaced by white, when
a change was made in the manage
ment. A call received at the Brooklyn

ored man was sent to apply for the
position.
Organized Labor
The fifty colored members of the
Paper Box Makers Union in New
York have been taking an active part
in the strike Of $500 paper box work
ers. On the other hand, there is an
attempt being made to break the strike
by the use Of colored girls. An effort
is being made to organize unskilled,
labor in Harrisburg, Pa. Colored girls
in one factory in Chicago have started
a movement to organize since the date
workers have gone on strike there.

waterway from the head Of the lakes would do more
than any other single project to improve conditions
that initiate against the proper marketing OF the
agricultural products of that section 80 often re-
ferred to as the bread basket Of the world.
Experts have figured out that dollar OF freight
money will carry you ten miles on deep water for
every mile that il will carry by rail transporta
ton. Hence the significance of the proposed canal
for which some twenty one states representing
forty five million people working in har'
mony.
The cost Of the great waterway from the Great
Lakes to the Atlantic seaboard Is not prOhibitve
Engineers estimate it at quarter OF billion DOL
lars whic: is only sixty per cent Of the cost OF the
Panama Canal. 1t is small sum when the vast
outiays made annually by the railroads OF the ma

Editorial Comment
Dig the Waterway
Duluth Herald)

Nations cut off whole in part by the posses
sions of ether powers from the ocean have always
sought to it, This right of reasonable access
to the sea has usually heen recognized by civilized
states.
In large measure the right of American trade to
free access to the by way Of the st. Lawrence
river was recognized in the treaty of Washington
made in 1871 between Great Britain and the United
States.
The treaty provides in substance that the naviga-
ton of the st. Lawrence ascending and descending
from the fortyfifth parallel of north latitude shall
forever remain free and open for the purpose OF
commerce to the citizens Of the United States, SUBJ
ject to any laws Of Great Britain and Canada not
inconsistent with such privilege Of navigation.
This treaty does not deal with that important part
of the river south of the fortyffth parallel, but
that section was opened in the same way by tho
Webster-Ashburton treaty Of 1872. Other provi-
SONS may he found looking in the same direction
The treaty of Washington made the river open
to Americans from the to point well beyond
the city Of Montreal. In return for this concession
which after all was merely tho acknowledgment OF
a privilege which comfy usually yields and which
really in practice already, the United States
agreed that the great Alaskan rivers should be free
to British ships.
1t may be said that this concession to American
sea going trade in the ST. Lawrence grant
OF the use of the waters as nature left them, and
did not carry with it right to expensive improve
ments making the way more available for all sorts
Of ships OF trade from the ocean to the interior.
There is technical basis for this objection
but 1t may be questioned reasonably whether 1t Is
good in morals in international law. At any
rate it is sure that the United States and the DO
miniOn OF Canada. will be able to arrange the de-
tails OF convention providing for the necessary
deepening Of the river channels so that the spirit
of the earlier treaties shall be fully preserved.
The province Of Quebec has no diplomatic
standing. 1t may he heard only through the voice
OF the Dominion. This is equally true OF the Can
adam West, whose trade is now paying tribute to
the eastern regions. The same is true Of the Am
erican states Of the Upper Great Lakes and the
Upper Mississippi valley. These may not be heard
in international councils They may speak only
through the government at Washington.
! This is why the Great Lakes-St. Lawrence Tide
water association labors so hard and so success
fully to awaken public opinion in this country fol
deep sea highway, and to stimulate the govern
ment at Washington to support the work. The two
great powers, one each side Of the forty fifth
parallel, will son agree to dig the deeper waterway
