NEW YORK, December 20.-Former
Judge Ben B. Lindsey of Denver, ad-
dressing a large audience IN Mecca
Temple tonight, made formal reply to
Bishop william T. ManningS state
ment that companionate marriage was
only another title for free love. He
asserted that the bishop was one OF the
leaders Of "reactionary clerical ele-
ment"
Companionate marriage, Lindsey in
sisted, was not free love" or trial
marriage" but was legalizsd marriage
with easy divorce for childleSS couples.
Abiding to his recent interruption OF
the service at the Cathedral Of st.
John the Divine, Mr.. Lindsey said:
Would Repeat Action.
"I would do exactly the same thing
over again under the same provoking,
exasperating circumstances created by
Bishop Manning-with one exception.
known as an ascription came at the end
of sermon"
He said his controversy with the
bishop had helped to raise great
issue in this Nation"
This issue" he said, ct hope even
tually will bring some substantial set
Element In accord with truth and justice
as to wether or not marriage was made
for man, as I claim 1t was. or man was
made for marriage, as the bishop claims
it is"
He defined his expression "compan-
ionate" as a program for the legaliza-
ton and scientific direction of the adj
mitted and accepted habits and Gus
toms of modern marriage, the kind Of
marriage being performed by virtually
all the clergy in practically all Of the
churches"
Gives Points in Program.
Mr.. Lindsey gave four salient points
of his program-The dissemination Of
birth control information, the set
ting up Of a divorce commission, the
instruction of youth IN the problems
of marriage and abolition of alimony
with children always being provided for
either by the State or the father.
He denounced the tyranny" of
clergymen who opposed legislation that
would 1egalize birth control.
IF birth control was against any
ones religious dogma" he said, surely
I never asked that anyone should vio-
late it. I have only asked for q free
dom of choice for free people in these
matters, GIlaL no CuukCh IuiS StNoAN oS
permitted to deny to people whose re-
ligicn or independence caused them to
differ on this subject from people bound
by church dogma that did not apply to
them.
The Constitution of this country for
bids the union of church and state.
No church has a right to force its
dogma into the statutes of this country,
whether it be prohibition of liquor or
prohibition Of birth control, and the
intimidation of politicians by eccleSi-
astical tyranny is getting to be one Of
the scandals of this age"

ferees and sought to arrive at COM
promise.
Senator Moses deplored the fact that
I'M conference the Senate members are
met by an adamantine attitude on the
part of the conferees on the part Of the
House." but he defended the report on
the ground that the salary increases
which were left in by the confereeS rep
resented two-thirds of the amount that
would have been available under the
Senate's original action.
He stressed the argument that the
dropping Of the Wood amendment was
equivalent to making 1886, 0oe available
for salary increases, and that the bill
also carries 81 ,43T, 800 for increases I'M
der the Brookhart and WEIGH laws,
making Q total of $2,273,800 in this bill
for salary increases
The fund for which Senator Brock
hart and others were fighting, however,
was the additional 1,19o, 900 the budget
had recommended to take care Of 30 per
cent of the undeT-aversge grades, and
which the conferees had eliminated.
Under the Senate bill, therefore, the
total for salaries in these two depart
ments would have been S3,463, 800.
In telling of the effort the Senate
the House managers, Senator Moses
said: I'VE attempted to glare at them
as hercely as they glared at US" He
said he did not agree to the theory thai
the House should have a larger control
over the national purseStrings, but that
he believed in seeking to compromise
differences and took the view that the
Senate group got more from the con-
ference than they had hoped for when
they started.
Would Set PFecedeat.
Senator Dill described the elimination
of the Senate salary items by the con-
fereeS as "a parSimonious policy" that
should not be followed ct this time, and
pointed out that If the 80 per cent of
under-average increases are left out of
this bill 1t will be precedent Congress
will have to follow ON all the other bills
this session.
Asserting there was no need for haste
In passing the conference report Sena-
tor Brookhart urged its rejection on
account of the elimination of both the
salary amendments and the Blaine
amendment. The vote by which the
bill was sent back to conference fol-

 ST. LOUIS, Jan. 15.-Old Man River great5 1880 with an ausplri- GUS glance and an optomistic twin kle in his eye.
 Although the romantic packet age of Mark Twain's day is far, far behind. the Mississippi forsees a new era that bears promise of a completed inland waterway sys- tem for the entire middle west.
 Numerous projects are on the 1890 horizon.
 The stubborn, nnud-choken Mis- souri, the Mississippi's chief tribu- tary to the west, is being dredged ard deepened by government cngi- neers. Before 193o ends they cx- psct to complete most of project that will open a six-foo5 channel to Kansas City and the huge grain territory to the west.
 With a six-foot channel author izad as far as Sioux City, Ia, pro- ponants of Missouri river shipping gre seeking a nine-foot channel from St. Louis to Kansas City.
 On the Illinois river, the Mis- sissippi's gateway to Chicago and Great Lakes trade, federal engi- neers likewise are dredging from the rivers mouth near St. Louis upstream to Utica, H., 223 miles.
 Canalization of 65 miles between Utica and Lockport, where a sani- tary district canal connects with Lake Michigan, has been prolonged by lack of state funds. Should the federal government decide to finish this work begun by Illinois, a lakes-to-gulf waterway would be assured.
 The upper Mississippi, where car goes of freight ply in a six-foot channel between Minneapolis, St. Paul, St. Louis and intermediate points. is the subject of agita- ton for a nine-foot channel. There has been no governmental action beyond a survey. however, on this proposal.
 Numerous other projects, includ- ing a movement to create a nine foot channel in the Tennessee river as far upstream as Knoxville, are under consideration, It also is proposed to deepen the Kanawha river, an Ohio tributary, that rich coal areas in West Virginia may be tapped for river shipment.
 IT the government takes favor able action on these various pro pcsals, hundreds of navigable miles would be added to the Mississippi system. Canalization of the Ohio virtually complete, already has bol- tered the mileage materially.
 On the Mississippi itself, where federal barge lines were established as an emergency measure to relieve wartime traffic, an ever-increas- ing fleet of barges and tow-boats carries upwards of 1,5ooOO0 tons ot freight annually On the upper anc lower river and on the Warrior river system in Alabama. ThesJ lines operate under the govern. msnt's Inland Waterways corpora. tion.
 The volume of merchandise of. fered for river shipment has become so great that the barge lines prob lem no longer is in building busi. ness, but in handling it promptly
 Thus the Mississippi, whose nine. tecnth century romance faded witt the coming of railroads, has re turned to commercial life with noise that echoes with endles ramifications reaching from mid western states to legislative corri
