ENGINEERS URGE:
. WATERWAY DELAY
Army Board Asks Congress
for More Time to Study
LakeS-tO- Plans.

Concuuing in the rejection by the
special engineer board of the all-Amer-
lean route for the proposed Great
LakeS-to-sea waterway, Maj. Gen.
Harry Taylor, chief of Army Engi-
neerS, advised Congress to await ''full
information" on both this and the st.
Lawrence route before making de-
cision ON a case involving large eN-
penditures and farreaChing possibil-
tiles.
This advice was contained in lei
ter accompanying the report of the
Rivers and IIarborS Engineer Board,
which was transmitted to the House
without comment by Secretary Davis.
The River and Harhor Engineer
Boards report held, as did Gen, Tay-
ior, tina Jre time was needed for eN-
perts to determine which OF the two
routes was to be preferred,
More Data Sought
Urging delay by Congress, the En-
gineer chief pointed out that addl-
tionai data on the st. Lawrence proJ-
ect would soon be available, enabling
engineers to arrive at "a much more
intelligent decision.
Expressing the opinion that a re-
port on the allAmerican project
should not be limited to depths of 20
and 25 feet he said it would Ger
tainly be unWise to build a waterway
across the State Of New York Of Insult
f1cient depth to obtain the greatest
practicable benefits
There has been a demand for a
deep waterway connection from the
Lakes TO the Atlantic" Gen Taylor
said Ito reduce transportation

advocated by certain interests to
serve this end. They include in it
request for a canal between Lakes
Erie and Ontario east of the Niagara
River, thus providing a route entirely
in American territory; they stress
the advantages of this proposal from
the viewpoint of national defense.
Other interests oppose the project,
claiming that the national defense
aspect is Of little significance.
Holds Time Insufficient.
1t was pointed out that these oppos-
ing views had been clearly set forth
before the engineer board. but the in
Vestigations, limited in point of time
by Congress. had necessarily pre-
vented the engineers from making d
complete survey.
If a 20foot waterway is provided,
the DOdfu estimated tndt tfdIllc OF
1850 O00 tons would move over it
annually, With a saving in freight
rates of S11,235.0 600. A 25-foot water
way, it was estimated, would carry
15,500,000 tons annually at a saving
of S22 500, 600
The route favored, ii was estimated.
would cost initially $449 ,000 900 for "a

$4,000 Sum Paid
Cook County Faction
By Samuel insult

Chicago, July 2S-(P)--Another
contribution by Samuel insult, Chi
cago utilities magnate, to the cam
paign funds raised in the Apri lllli-
nois primary was disclosed today be-
fore the state campaign funds COM
mittee.
1t was $4,000 paid to the powerful
Grove Barrett Republican faction OF
Cook County, which generally sup
ported Frank L. Smith. chairman or
the Illinois commerce commission. IN
his successful fight to wrest the Re-
publican senatorial nomination from
Senator William 3. Mckinley.
This increased the known outlay by
insult during the primary campaign
to S193,735.19, of which S125,000 was a
gift to the Smith organization. $l5,-
600 to George f. Brennan, who won
the Democratic senatorial nomlna-
ton, and $4,000 to the Deneen group
in Cook County.
Insults contribution was testified
to by Charles V. Barrett of Chicago,
treasurer of the Grove Barrett or
ganization, who disclosed also that
his group spent total appro%imating
$175, 600. This. with other but small
err expenditures testified to during the
Illinois primary to $685., 1854.
The $4,000 insult contribution re-
vealed today was withheld from the
committee by the donor last Monday
until he could confer with counsel as
to the authority of the committee to
compel an answer. He had been
given until tomorrow to reach a final
decision and Chairman Reed indica-
tod TONIGHT no would ha rpca He'd and
asked if he had made any contribu-
tons other than those disclosed by
himself or the witnesses.
In session today for almost five
hours the committee continued per-
sistently to dig into contributions and
expenditures turning upan addition
ly $4,000.
An otherwise dry recital of figures
was enlivened by the appearance of
Edward II. Wright, Negro member
of the Illinois commerce commission
and boss of Chicago's second ward.
He twice declined to tell how much
money was collected by his ward or
ganization for use in the April pri-
mary.
"We'll see whether You'll answer
or not after a while" Senator Reed,
Democrat, Missouri. said. when
Wrigh made his second declination.
With his voice pitched low, and
with a pause between almost each
work, the usually fiery Missourian
began to ply Wright with questions.
The upshot was that the ard leader
testified to spending $4,000 for work
ers at the polls on primary day and
$500 for a canvass of the ward to in
crease registration

Manchester. VT. July 28.-(P)-Final
rites for Robert Todd Lincoln. son of

the shadow of the Vermont hills he
had come to call home. Extreme sim
plicity marked the brief services at

last quarter of century. He died
there Monday.
The Rev. d. Cunningham C ira ham,
pastor of the Congregati church,

George II. Thatcher of Albany, N Y,
and Manchester. Mr.. Young and Mr..
Thacher, the two surviving members
of the Lincoln foursome." famous
for years on the Ekwanok golf course.
Only one thing that might have
been considered a form of eulogy was
included in the services. This was n
message of sympathy to the family
and relatives delivered through the
minister by the village folk. For the
rest there was the reading of the
23rd Psalm, part of the 18th chapter
of Corinthians. A few verses from
Revelations. a brief prayer and the
recitation of Tennyso Crossing the
Bar" by the Rev. Cunningham-G Ora

tated lights in the mansion. the fu-
neral cortege proceeded nearly mile

tain, the body will rest in a vault for
several months until taken to the fam
lily tomb in Springfield, Ill. The burial
was private, and save for the funeral
party the cemetery and approaches
were deserted.
The casket was borne from the house
by Lincoln Isham of New York and
Robert Todd Lincoln Beckwith of
Washington. grandsons of Mr.. Lin
coin. assisted by their cousins, Ed

FRENCH TO Defer
WAR DEBTS IN FAVOR
OF PRESENT PROBL EMS

Paris, July 2S.-[P)-Ratifcation of
the Washington and London debt
agreements must wait until the cham
Der of deputies convenes in October.
This Premier Poincare made clear
tic the finance committee of the cham
Der when he appeared before that body
today to urge the passage of the finan-
cial bill.
NJ. Poincare gave no inkling as to
whether he favored or opposed the ac-
cords. but said the financial bill was
the more important and that parlia-
ment lacked time to open a long dis
cussion. which undoubtedly would fol-
low the introduction of the ratification
bills.
The premier reiterated the state
ment contained in the ministerial dec
laraton of Frances most earnest de-
sire to settle its interallied debts
within the measure of it's capacity
for payment"
The financial bill was approved in
principle today by the finance commit
tee 90 to -, with six abstentions. The
separate articles, however. met with
sterner opposition, one of them. No. 4,
dealing with the tax on railroad pas
senger and freight rates. being espe-
cialiy objected to.
The tax collectors in Paris report
more than 100000 francs received in
the past two days in payments for the
1926 taxes, although the sheets have
not yet been sent out. The suburbs
also sent encouraging news as to the
response of the taxpayers to the pre-
mierS plea.

held at the Court house here this af-

the various towns In the county were
present nearly half those present be-
ing women.
The meeting was called to der by
Ray l.. Fernald of Winterport, MEM
Der of the state committee and can
didate for representative to the legis-
lature from the Islesboro- Winterport
class. Mr.. Fernald acted as perman-
ent chairman, organization plans
were discussed and program of
program of procedure adopted. Short
speeches were made by Mr.. ternald,
some of the candidates and others.
Mayor Z. L. Mclean, candidate for
governor was present and spoke on
the issues of the campaign. He ex-
pressed the hope this campaign
might be conducted along construc-
tive lines. the real problems of the
state might be discussed. He refer
red to the States finances and eX-
pressed surprise that the state audi
tor had differed answering his ques-
ton as to what date the war bond
reserve had been checked. He de-
voted most of his time to discussing
the problems of the farmers. He dis
closed that the farmers of the state
needed some help, that agriculture
was perhaps the greatest industry of
state and that it was enough to be
satisfied with. says that 500, 900
was brought into the state by agri-
culture. The problem was to find
out how much profit was represented
by that 100000, 900 and whether that
profit was a fair and reasonable pro-
fit. He declared that it was not. He
stated that it was admitted that our
dairy cattle were decreasing as were
also We're our sheep and swine. He
referred to Mr.. Reeds report thai
Maine was declining as an apple pro-
ducing state. This condition declar-
ed Mr.. Mclean should be remedied.
The problem he said was to get fair
net profit out our gross sales. The
formula he declared was to reduce
the cost Of production and the cost
of distribution. He suggested as a
solution five or ten year agricu!-
tural program which should include a
survey of our agricultural assets and
liabilities and a survey of our mar
kets and transportation problems. He
also said suggestions as to storage
warehouse for the farmer. If we can

State Dept. Keeps
Secret Agreement
Made With Panama

Washington, July 2S-(P)-The
state department made today the
bare announcement that a special
treaty and claims convention with
Panama had been signed.
For undisclosed reasons the de-
partment chose to reverse its estab-
lished practice of announcing new
treaty terms in a summarized state
ment and even caused the Panama
legation to suppress an announce
ment it had prepared for publication
in regard to the two new agree
ments.
The special convention had been
in the process of negotiation for
more than two years when it was
formally approved today by Secre-
tary Kellogg and Francis White, act
ing for the United States, and by
Minister Rickardo Alfaro and Fuse
bio Morales, on behalf of Panama,
when ratified and given final effect
by the legislative bodies of the two
governments, the treaty will sup
plant the Taft agreement which grew
out of series of executive orders is
sued from 1904 to 1911.
The claims convention Is under
stood to be relatively unimportant
since it provides only for the adjust
ment of claims which resulted from
property losses in Panama City due
to the fire of 1888 when the city be-
longed to Colombia. The total in
wolves a comparatively small amount
of money.
The Importance of the special
agreement, however, is recognized by
both governments as it lays down
general rules governing commercial
relations between the Canal Zone
and Panama and also regularizes in
treaty form understandings which
have to do with safeguarding the
canal itself.
