Ship Barge Canal Project Across
Georgia Florida Peninsula Is Step
Nearer To Federal Adoption

They said shippers as we'll as
the country in general would be
benefited because they proposed
to fix a toll rate of 25 cents a
ton as compared to the $1.25 a
ton rate now existing on Panama
Canal traffic.
W. S. Lee of Charlotte. N. c.,
who prepared engineering data for
the project, said it would provide
work for $4,000 men year for
the entire period of construction,
estimated at from 8 to 6 years.
Lee said 5000 men could be
put to work within 60 days af-
ter approval of the project, 10000
shortly thereafter and the full
$4,000 within 90 days.
President Jackson first realized
the value of such a canal in 1929
when leading an expedition in the
region. He advocated it for its
military and economic benefits.
The canal has been proposed to
congress on three occasions.
President Ulysses S. Grant sub
mitted the proposal in 1868. 1t
was considered again in 1908 and
in 1880, but no action was taken.

ST. LOUIS. Mo-, Aug. 81. (UP)
Physicians last night intensified
efforts to build up defense
against the swiftly spreading
sleeping sickness epidemic which
sent an additional 40 persons to
isolation wards here during the
day.
Hampered by their limited
knowledge of the disease, doctors
under the leadership of DR.. j. P.
Leake of the United States De-
partment of Public Health admit
ted they were baffled by their in
ability to effectively fight the
malady.
DR.. Leake said he believed that
the germ, which half dozen bac-
teriologists are trying to locate, is
remaining hidden because it is too
small for the mightiest microscope
to reveal. A two weeks search for
the germ has failed to reveal a
single clue. DR.. Leake said.
Official figures released by the
METROPOLITAN health council, form
ed to fight the encephalitis cpl
demic. revealed that AZ persons
had died-one yesterday-since
the disease was discovered here
a month ago. A total of 362 per-
sons have been stricken during
that period.
Yesterdays total of new vic
tins was the largest number to
be received in any one day since
the disease first appeared here.
Within the past two weeks the
percentage of deaths among those
stricken has climbed steadily I'M
| til now the death toll is more than
I'13 per cent of the total number
of cases reported.
One phase of the epidemic
which mystified physicians is its
Epredominance in the less populat-
ed suburban sections. In st. Louis
county's area. where fewer than
100000 people live, 80 deaths
have occurred and more than 240
persons stricken, as compared
with Is deaths and 1872 sufferers

times as many persons make their
