HOOVER ADVOCATES INLAND WATERWAYS
Discusses Possibility of 12,000
 Mile System in U. s.

St. Louis, Nov. 22 LP - A broad CT national policy toward the de- NeIopment of the country's inland waterways and it's water resources generally is now in course of pro mitigation.
 This was disclosed in prepared address today by Secretary Hoover, here as the principal speaker on he Mississippi Valley association program.
 After sketching the possibilities offered by creation of a 12,000 mile water transportation system through ;he heart of the country by the utilization Of the Mississippi sys- tenn. the Great lakes, and the pro- jected canal 10 the Atlantic, he touched upon the controversies in Nolving the latter project with q plea for the expenditure "of money on cement and steel rather than Gpon courts and political agita ton"
 MT. Hoover stressed that water way improvement had to be taken up as a whole, because disconnect- d though improved segments merely put up q mo thoroughfare" sign against barges and vessels fit 10 serve modern needs. Engineer ing structures to maintain the de- sired levels Of the Great lakes he Ir tnf he estimated that unified program for completing the opening of the Mississippi system would cost S15O,. o00,O00 and could be attained with in five years.
 Benefits to the whole nation would come, he asserted, in many ways, one being better distribution of population, since relief from freight burdens would check the tendency Of people to leave the in- terior for the seaboard5
 These are not new channels that we have suddenly discovered" he said "On our rivers the packet boats were the pioneers of western transportation. Our Great lakes have become a great transport sys- tenn in themselves. Our concern is 10 sustain and again increase their depths so as to permit of ocean going shipping, and beyond this to undertake the greatest engineering task of our generation in building the shipway from the lakes to tho sea"

 WHISKEY MAKING
Andrews Plan for Medicinal
 Stocks Meets Opposition

Washington, Nov. P GP -- The proposal of Assistant Secretary An drews, the governments chief pro- hibition enforcer for immediate resumption of the manufacture Of medicinal whislley, has failed to receive the approval. for the pres ont at least. of the AnH-Saloon league.
 General Andrews program calls for creation by congress at its ap- preaching short session of q gov ernment supervised private cor poration to take over the existing supply of 15,000,000 gallons Of medicinal whisSey and begin at once the manufacture of more i- quor to replenish this diminishing stock. which, he estimates, will be exhausted in five years.
 The position of the Anti Saloon league. as announced by it's gen. cral counsel, Wayne E. Wheeler, is that immediate manufacture of whiskey is not necessary and that 1t would be possible to import sui ticient whiskey from abroad, if needed to meet medicinal demands, until a definite program of replace ment could be formulated. It con sidors 15,000,000 gallons a suffi- cient supply to last eight years and holds that only four years are needed, "according to the standard set by the medical profession" for aging new liquor,
 With respect 10 authorizing man. ufacture Of whiskey in this country again, 1t is maintaining an "opeN mind" although Wheeler said there was possibility" that the bill be- ing prepared for Andrews might meet objections 10 the reopening of listillcries.
