Prominent Democratic leaders al

D. Roosevelt to approve. in advance,
a beer bill providing a higher con-
tent of alcohol than is proposed in
all measures now under considera-

Pending proposals. including the
Linthicum-Beck bill, provide for
275 per cent alcohol. whereas the
Democrats now urge that this figure
be RAISED TO 3.75.

out along the track, about thirty

WAR PROBLEM

IN CANAL PACT
Canada'S Stand in Case Of
Conflict Questioned in
Waterway Debate.
COST IS MAJOR ISSUE
Widely Varying Estimates
Are Given on Money
Needed for Route.
BY WALKER STONE
Times STAFF Writer

WASHINGTON. Nov 29.-The
sttae departments spokesman, As
sistant Secretary James Grafton
Rogers, skirted clear in his testi-
mony before the Borah subcommit-
tee Of two controversial questions
presented by the st. Lawrence
treaty:
What would happen to the United
States rights in the shipway in
event of war?
What economic justification is
there for the vast expenditures pro-
posed?
Should the United States and
Canada engage in war, Rogers said,
then, of course either nation could
put the seaway out of commission,
and dominion over the water route
would pass to the strongest.
Cites War Problem,
Should Great Britain be at war
with another power, Rogers said,
Canada could not, without violating
the treaty, prevent United States
ships from navigating the canal.
Rogers made no guess as to what
Canada would do, should United
States ship attempt to navigate the
canal laden with supplies for an
enemy.
Regarding the economic phases of
the waterway development, Rogers
admitted, under a pointed question
by Senator Robert Wagner (Dem.,
N. ", that he was not prepared
to testify.
Although stating that he believed
the waterway would be of great
benefit to the land-locked middle
west, Rogers said he could not
testify to what extent and in what
way the benefits would accrue.
Rogers defended the concession
made by this government in the
streaty recognizing Canada's rights
over the waters of Lake Michigan,
and limiting the Chicago diversion
to 1900 cubic feet per second.
Root Report Brought Out
Senator Glenn (Rep., Ill) read
into the record a report made by
secretary of state Elihu Root in
1909, concerning a treaty that had
recently been negotiated, in which
Root stressed the refusal to con-
sider Lake Michigan, which lies en-
trely within United States terri
tory, as an international body of
water.
In that report, Root, Glenn said.
asserted that Chicago was entitled
to a diversion of 10000 c. F. S., a
right which Canada must not be
\ allowed to question.
Today's witnesses included army
engineers, who will defend official
estimates that the cost of the sea-
way and power project will not
greatly exceed half billion dollars.
Opponents of the waterway two
weeks ago estimated the cost at
more than a billion.
Commerce department witnesses
will be called to answer opponents
arguments that the canal will not
reduce transportation costs materi-
ally, and that shippers will not
make extensive use of the seaway,
