WATERWAY
SYSTEM is URGED
Deepening of Ohio River Seen
as Step in Big
Development.
BY JOHN F. SINCLAIR.

Special Dispatch to The Star
NEW YORK, October 18.-The Ohio
River from Pittsburgh to Cairo, ILL.,, has
been deepened tc the 9-foot stage.
Last night a dinner in Pittsburgh cele-
brated the event. A number of business
leaders and public men, including sew
eral cabinet officers, were present.
Among them Andrew w. Mellon. He
prophesied growing Importance in the
development and uses Of inland water
transportation.
Our waterways must be developed in
anticipation of the time when traffic in
this country will be so heavy that no
railway system, however extensive and
well managed, can entirely cope with
our increasing requirements. -" There
is very definite field for water trans
portation here in slow-moving and bulky
freight, such as ore, coal and grain,"
Mr.. Mellon said.
After giving a word of advice to the
railroad executives, who have never been
known as boosters for inland water
ways, the Secretary of the Treasury con-
tirTued: "It will be fortunate In the end
for the railroads no less than for the
public If a great inland water trafic
can be steadily built up on a sound and
profitable basis"
Other sections OF the country, par
ticularly In the Middle West, are look
ing to the inland waterways for relief
from some of their most acute economic
problems.
Col Leonard P. Ayres, the financial
sage of Cleveland, does not take quite
the same rosy view of the stock market
as many others. He has been predict
ing drop in prices for several, years.
Now the colonel sees the market as q
sort Of creeping bear Market" involv-

ing something Of the sort that happened
in the rich mans panic of 1908" when
the market Of that day was clogged by
excessive accumulations Of 'undigested
securities"
Says Col Ayres: "This has been a
highly selective market. A majority of
the issues has been drifting down for
some time-long before the recent break
began.
1.-THE decline from the first of Sep
TENDER through the first week in Oc-
tober, this year, has amounted to IA
per cent, as against an average of 8
per cent. In the panic of 1908, the
Fall decline was % per cent; in 1907
it amounted to % per cent, and in the
postwar reaction of 1919 it was 16
per cent. In all other years 1t has
been less than this year"
The colonel refers to the stock mar
ket operations today as dumb buy
ing and smart selling" The larger
operators all know that there has been
an enormous amount of distribution
going on. Just how much stock win
be distributed the market should show
in the next two or three weeks.
Edwin w. Ely. United States Depart
ment of Commerce. estimates that
American industry, through adherence
to the principles of simplihed practice
in only 10 of the los practices recon-
mended, has already effected an an
nual saving of $500, 000,0 00 No figures
are available on the other 95 programs,
but adoption of them by industry has
resulted in the saving of many mil
lions more.
What is simplified practice in in
dustry? 1t is merely a method Of re-
ducing waste by eliminating the .un-
necessary varieties in industrial prod
ucts.
For example: The number of varie-
ties of vitrefled paving brick has been
reduced from IS to S, metal laths from
125 to "a, files and rasps from 1851 to
ATS, hotel chinaware from TOO varieties
to $50.
Before the Department of Commerce
started its work In this fleld there were
70 varieties Of blankets manufactured
now IL. Milk bottles have been re-
duced from 40 varieties to 4, paint and
varnish brushes from $50 to 138.
Zone of the outstanding causes of
waste In industry lies in too great a
variety of commodities produced for
stock" said Mr. Ely.
The simpliied principle is basically
sound and its universal application
should follow.

palatial home on the beautiful ST. John
River and expected to retire.
But it's hard for one who has been so
active to carry out such good intentions,

He organized corporation, the AL

surplus of $4,000. Within q month the
deposits of this bank had reached
81, 500, 900.
Now the du Pont interests have made
application TO the controller for per-
mission to establish national banks in
Barlow, Orlando, Deland, Daytona and
Cocoa.
THE du Pont interests contemplate
establishing banks in every locality in
Florida where, in their opinion, the ven-
ture will be profitable and where bank
ing facilities are needed" said George
E. Tribble, vice president of the Florida
National Bank of Lakeland, to the
writer.
Naturally with such an extensive pro-
gram, the matter of an efficient person.
mel becomes Of outstanding importance.
I asked him how this would be handled
1T will undoubtedly be necessary to
build up the personnel for the larger
executive positions. with the expansion
we have in mind, from outside sources"
Du Points decision to enter the bank
ing field in Florida is a most important
one. 1t was taken only after three years
OF close study OF Florida's basic condi-
tions.
Florida is to be congratulated.
