OF the Twentieth Congress. The old
Potomac Co. had surrendered its
charter TO the new organization for
building the independent canal on May
is. 1925. The first board of directors
Of the Chesapeake a Ohio Canal. con-
sisting Of six members. among whom
was Andrew Stewart, was elected In the
Spring of 1923.
The canal was operated successfully
up to 1924. when 1t suspended business.
1t was very seriously damaged In that
year by two freshets following each
other In rather close succession. This,
together with declining tonnage due to
competition Of more rapid freight tran
sit by rail and to business depression
and strikes throughout the territory
from which II drew Its patronage, has
so far prevented q resumption Of Its
activity.
Over the placid surface OF this digni-
fed old waterway have passed millions
Of tons of freight especially coal, grain.
hay. stone. lumber and other commodi-
ties that may be successfully moved to
market In leisurely fashion. Many old
residents of this city can well remember
the days OF the canals activity and re-
call the hustle of its water front at
Georgetown, with the assembled boats
anu muicS anu tne Stranke. gypsy like
folk who had their livelihood by 1t and
who passed their lives upon it.
Who knows, however. whether from
this old line of slow communication
there may not spring q new. modern
avenue for Swift-moving trafflc? One
wonders whether over the old canal,
filled to the brim with solid earth and
topped with glossy asphalt. automobiles
may not some day scurry along, or
whether tracks of steel may not eventu-
ally be laid over this waiting right Of
way for still more rapid travel and for
mighty wealth of freight rushing TO
distant markets.

Three on Pension List Severe
 Drain on Treasury

Addition of three pensioners has , increased the drain on the police pension fund to such an extent that consideration is being given 10 ways and means for holstering up the in- come and at an early meeting of the board having charge of the fund there will be discussion along these lines, if was learned today
 The police department, city treas urer and police commissioners are
 represented on the board.
 Chief w. C. Hart is inclined to ia.
 NOT charter change to permit tn.
 payment ot witness fees earned by
 members of the regular police de
 partment in police court cases, into
 the pension fund instead of into the
 general fund of the city as at pres ent. He estimates that between $1,-
 300 and s1.S0o per year would be added to the fund in this way
 As the charter regulation is at present, officers and regular policc- men are not paid witness fees in po- lice court, but a 60 cent fee is charged in each case against the person on trial, as part of the costs of the court. The chief feels that the proposed change is worth con- 
 City Treasurer C. l.. Sheldon said today that payment of pensions during the last fiscal year took ap- s29o0 out of the fund end considerably more will be paid this year because the three latest additions to the list Of pensioners drew money only d short time prior to the end of the fiscal year. There was approximately $S4.000 in the tund at the beginning of the ore. sent year. Mir. Sheldon said, and the time 10 build it up is the present, before the number of pensioners is SO large that the income is entirely taken mp by payments to them.
 nder the present charter, the clty cannot appropriate more than 5000 a year towards the fund, MT said. ft may become nec- essary to request the Legislature to amend the charter either to allow Tor greater appropriation by the 'lty or in some other way, in order 10 guard against contingency.

While he was known to be well able to take care of himself and his two companions despite the Arctic hard ships, it was feared that the handi- cap facing them was too great and that they never would be heard from.
 No Word Heard
 No definite word of them was heard from the time they left the other men. Several overland expe- dltlons equipped with dog teams were in constant search for them and the various planes which have secured the district were on q constant lookout in an effort to trace them.
 The powerful ice breaker Kras- sin was sent north by the soviet government on June II to aid fin the search for the missing men of the Italia. It left Leningrad for Kings Bay on June Is and arrived at Virgo Bay North spitzbergen. on the 29th. Since then the ship has been battling ice tloes in an effort to reach the castaways near Foyn Island. It was last reported about 25 to 30 miles from the marooned men, making very slow progress toward them
 Hope Decreases
 With the softenins of the ice. hope of rescuing the men by means of airplanes had decreased and the chief reliance of the rescue expedi. tions had centered more and more on the ice breaker.
