Secretary Hurley Says Project Has
Progressed More Under
President.
BY the Associated Press.

By the Associated Press.
OMAHA, october 2o.-Secretary Hur-
ley told a farm belt audience last night
that more progress has been made to-
ward creating a national inland water
way system under President Hoover's
administration than in any like pc
riod in the history of the Nation"
development of the great inland
waterway system together with the as
sured completion of the st. Lawrence
Seaway will restore the Middle West
other sections of the United States" the
Secretary of War added.
Hurley said the inland waterway sys-
tenn would bring MidWestern producers
ZOO miles nearer to the sea, save from
to 10 cents bushel on grain shipped
abroad, a like percentage en- meats and
other food products, and produce a
similar saving on materials brought
from the Seaboard to the Middle West.
Not only as Secretary CT Commerce,
but also as President during the past
three and one-half years." he said,
Herbert Hoover has worked unceasing
ly toward the realization of this goal
50 vital to the welfare Of the interior
section.
THE Hoover administration has been
fundamentally and uncompromisingly
opposed to doles, gratuities and pork
barrel appropriations. Under the Hoo
yer policy the expenditures for inland
waterway development are limited to
projects which are justified from both
an engineering and an economic stand
point, and which will bring tangible
returns to the tax payers
Inland waterway development forms
only an incidental phase of the general
Hoover non partisan reconstruction
program. The Democrats in Congress
presented a plan to correct the present
situation through doles and gratuities
from the Federal Treasury and pork
barrel appropriations.
