WATERWAY TREATY
WILL Be PRESSED.
White House Held Seeking
Senate Action for
st. Lawrence.
BY the Associated Press.

BY the Associated Press.
The ST. Lawrence waterway treaty
along with legislation giving definite
Federal recognition to New York States
power c,aims,swill be pressed fer action
in the Senate at this session. according
to word from the White House yes
terday.
Favored by Committee.
The treaty. pro7i0ing joint develop
ment by the United States and Canada
of seaway IN the international Sec
ton Of the St. Lawrence, was signed
last July. Sent to the Senate for rati-
fication recently, the treaty was re-
ported favorably by the Senate FCreign
Relations Committee.
New York State, renewing its 20
year-old claim on the hyuroelectric
power of the international stream, has
requested, through its Power Authority,
that this claim be recognized formally
by an act CT Congress simultaneously
with ratification of the treaty.
Broadly the legislation, understood
already to be III course of preparation,
first would give recognition to the
power rights OF the St2Je, and, second,
would prohibit forever any chance OF
private interests acquiring the power
lite OF rights. New Iork's power claims
thus far are provided for nowhere ii
the treaty or any other written agree
ment
These two demands were MADE by
President Roosevelt while he was
Governor of New York and during the
time the treaty negotiations between
the Federal Government and Canada
were being concluded.
Two members of the New York Power
Authority, Frank P. Walsh, chairman,
and Delos M, Cosgrove, vice chairman,
have conferred with the President
within the last two days.
Reach Tentative Agreement.
While Army engineers and members
of the Power Authority early this year
arrived at tentative agreement on
S89.000000 as the ALLEGATION of the st.
Lawrence cost to New York, this agree
ment has not been made formally by
the State and Federal governments.
The cost share and terms of payment
are to be considered in the framing of
the concurrent resolution. New York,
under the governorship of Mr.. Roosevelt,
entered sharp protest to the suggestion
of the former national administration
that it pay Sl50,000,000 for the use of
power developed incidental to operation
of the st. Lawrence ship canal.

GREEN IN ACCORD
WITH MISS PERKINS.
Opposition to Secretary of
Labor Is Declared
Closed Incident.

President William Green of the Amer
lean Federation of Labor. is now one OF
the chief supporters OF the policies OF
Secretary of Labor Perkins.
The labor chiaftain. who fought
vigorously the appointment of Miss
Perkins as a member of President
Roosevelts cabinet. said last night pricr
to his departure from Washington to
make speech in Cleveland that his
opposition was CLOSED incident"
He added with emphasis that he was
in accord with Miss Perkins in their
discussions Of labor subjects. Our
points of view have been very largely
the same" he explained.
Opposition Impersonal.
The Labor official asserted his op-
position to Miss Perkins appointment
was purely impersonal." adding:
Never at any time have I discounted
the ability or sincerity of Miss Perkins.
Whatever differences of opinion existed
on the qualifications for the position
were purely impersonal That is a
closed incident.
Now she is Secretary of Labor, and
we recognize her as such. There was
never any question about that. either
for myself or for the federation"
Similar Views Expressed.
The subjects on which Green and
Miss Perkins have expressed similar
views are the shorter work week. min
imum wage scale laws and the feasibil-
ity of huge public works program
They went together to the White
House Thursday to confer with the
President on labor subjects.
Prior to the appointment of Miss
Perkins the American Federation placed
its support behind Daniel j. Tobin of
indianapolis. president of the Team
sters and Chauffeurs' Union. Green
and a delegation of labor officials called
on Mr. Roosevelt at Hyde Park, N. Y.
urging Tobin's appointment.
Tobins name is now being mentioned
in Democratic circles for one of the
assistant labor secretaryships.
