NAVIGATION BILL
 GOES ID SENATE
Fem Adds Pr0YiSOS to Project
 to Protect Hartford

Washington, April 26 - Connec- ticut rivers navigation project was sent to the senate from the house late yesterday afternoon, travelling in the form of an official committee amendment to the Omnibus Rivers and Harbors bill. Unless it gets Con- necticut opposition in the senate it is likely to become law with the bill.
 A million dollars for start of the work is provided for in the amend ment subject to the conditions set forth by army engineers and two provisos asked by Representative Fenn stipulating that the Bulkley or Hartford Memorial bridge shall not be disturbed and that the proposed lock and dam to be built near Hart ford shall not be built so near that it would in any way disturb city im- provements, or otherwise interfere with the city.
 To Facilitate Passage
 These provisos are expected to fla cilitate passage of the project since it removes a large expense which would have had to be borne by the bridge owners in both states. This eliminates the necessity for any change in the Hartford bridge and the Hampdcn County Memorial bridge in Springfield, neither of which will have to be raised.
 The other bridges, four in this state and four in the Bay state, will have to be altered since their clear ance is less than 40 feet in every instance. As to the dam and naviga- tion lock the government has not yet indicated where it intends to place them although a report given con- gross 15 years ago gives the pro- posed location rather accurately. It says: "The canalization of the river between Hartford and the lock-site struction of a dam and lock near Hartford. The site furthest down. stream suitable for the construction of these works is about Is miles above the Hartford bridge.
 >"An alternative site, affording rock foundation for the lock, occurs at Wilson's, about two miles further upstream, but the ledge dips so rap idly towards the river that it will not afford a foundation for tho dam. The cost of exc""ating and maintaining an open channel be- tween the two sites considerably overbalances the saving in first construction that would be realized at the upper site from the more fa- vorable lock foundation.
 'The general plans for the lock and dam provide for a lock cham Der 310 fee. in usable length and 45 feet in width. The height of lock datum. Based on a record of 17 years a lock of this height will be flooded but IS days in the year when the river is otherwise nayiga- ble, on an average, and but P days in the year as a maximum. The dam has a length of approximately 1000 feet"
 Since the ultimate decision rests with congress if the bill Is passed with the Fem provisos the army engineers will be compelled to obey orders.
 It is pointed out that the Hart ford Holyoke navigation proposition is still a long way from commence ment because of the numerous ar engagements to be made before work can be started.

CREATIVE THEORY DENIED BY PUNDIT
Lamarck'S Evolution Law Object
 Of Scientists Attack

Philadelphia, April "6 (UP)-The I "creative" evolution theory. originat- ! ed by Lamarck and later taken up i by George Bernard Shaw, was con tradicted in q paper prepared by Dr. | Henry Fairfield Osborn, director of | the American Museum of Natural 1 History, and read before the three | day annual meeting of the American Philosophical society,
 Darwin's theory of environment, | which holds that environment was the determining factor in causing species to develop new characteristics, also was rcfuted. Environment is in fucntial only in regulating the size
 of evolving creatures, according to | Dr. Osborn.
 Progress and retrosression in species, resulted from physiological and not cnvironmental opportuni- | tics. the paper concluded.
 Tho director said he based his conclusions on an exhaustive study of the remains of certain extinct | relatives of the horse, tapir and
 rhinoccros family unearthed during ] the past % years in Utah, Colorado, New Mexico. South Dakota, Wyom- l ing, Montana. the Gobi desert, Bur
 ma and Balkan countries. Skeletal
 remains Of these made possible a study of their development over q ] period of 10,O00,000 years, Dr. Os- born said.
 Dr. Osborn's paper insists that the evolution of q species like the hu
 man race is determined largely when l the first member of that specie is
 created. All characteristics and va
 isted, and will appear later. were
 contained in the ancestor of that
 particular species, he contended.

DECLINE IN MEAT
PRICES IS BOON
TO HOUSE WIVES

Right now the housewife has
an opportunity to purchase meats
at the lowest price level in sew
eral years. The drought conditions
and high prices of feed will bring
many meat animals to the market
much earlier than is usual. This
condition will mean an abundance
of meat at most attractive prices.
The especially good buys" are
the cuts other than roasts, steaks,
and chops, because the demand
for these cuts is always great
enough to maintain the price lev
ell, but such cuts as chuck of beef,
shoulder of lamb and pork offer
chance for a wide choice. At this
time of year there is no better
choice than a pot-roast of beef with
its good brown gravy and rich fla
vor.

them delicious and economical.
