equal to 1884 a share of capital stock.
compared with s403 a share in the

DIXIE SHIP CANAL
DECISION IS NEAR
Georgia Senator Plans Dis
cusSion With Roosevelt
Early This Week.

By the Associated Press.
Proponents of the proposed $3.50 000-
900 Florida Georgia ship canal, which
would trim 500 to 800 miles from the
Atlantic Seaboardr to- Gulf Coast water
route. said yesterday the Public Works
Administration was nearing q decision
ON the proposed project.
Senator George of Georgia, working
with the Canal Commission headed by
r. G. Woolford. said he would discuss
the canal with President Roosevelt early
this week
w. 8. Lee, consulting engineer Of the
commission, estimated that 1000 en-
gineers and $4,000 laborers would be
put to work on the canal at once II 1t
were approved. Six years would be re-
quired to complete the project.
Alternate Plan Submitted.
The proposed waterway would turn
in from the seaboard at the St. Mary's
River, cut across to FolkStOn, continue
by Jasper. Fla, and enter the gulf
near the mouth Of the AucIla River
Waters Of the historic Sewanee River
and several other streams would be
used as flush for the canal, which
would be l66 miles long, 200 feet wide
and 38 feet deep.
An alt6Tudte plan Is DclIlS SuDHhlGSd
to the Public Works Administration for
q barge canal over the same route. This
would cost only $50,00000 and require
only three years In construction.
Toll Charge Suggested.
Woolford and his commission are
urging the Florida Georgia canal in
preference to similar waterway. far
ther south. claiming their proposal will
cut more mileage from ship travel and
facilitate use Of the intra coastal water
way.
The commission said, If need be, the
Florida Georgia canal can be under
taken as a selfnquidattng project. by
ships being charged toll to pay on
the Government investment.
Even with a tollcharge. the seaboard-
to-gulf travel would not be as expensive
as running around the Florida penin-
sula, the commission said.

CAPPER URGES
RENTS SLASH

Drastic reductions in District
rents were demanded last night
by Senator Arthur Capper (R0
Of Kansas, former chairman Of
the Senate District Committee,
when he addressed the Petworth
Citizens Association.
Senator Capper pointed out
that a study of rents in 19 cities
indicated that District rents had
been reduced only 10 per cent.
while in Detroit 78 per cent re-
ductions had been made. Cuts
comparable to Detroit's reduc-
tions have been made in other
cities, Senator Capper said.
He declared:
Residents of the District are
paying boom time rents out Of
depression incomes"
Retrenchment in school appro-
priations was protested by Sen.
ator Capper, who advocated q
model educational system for the
District.

FIELD SERVICES
TOSTANDCUT

Conflicting reports surged about
the Federal departments today
with respect to governmental re-
organization and consequent dis.
missal of Federal employees.
The formerly "hard-boiled" at.
titude that money must be saved
no matter who had to go, was
represented as ameliorating, and
as a result of numerous protests,
it was said that personnel would
be affected as little as possible
by the cuts, and that the field
service would suffer more than
the departmental offices in Wash
ington.
Congressional reaction to this
attitude, however, was anticipated
with some interest, for the field
service has more friends on Capi,
tai Hill, probably, than the de-
partmental.
