Army Will Hold
New Hearing On
Florida Cana

WASHINGTON, Nov. 10. (UP).
New hope for the stalemated
$l46,00O,O0O Florida ship canal
uawncd as board of army en-
gineers reported here that the
huge project is Justified in the
public interest
The development was the first
hopeful move for the canal since
the house of representatives killed
special appropriation which
would have enabled work to con-
tinue. The appropriation was
killed on the day of the death of
the late Senator Duncan L.
Fletcher, chief supporter of the
prOeCt.
Reporting favorably on the prof.
ect, on which work has come to a
complete halt, the board Of eng!-
neers announced public hearing
at its headquarters here on De-
cember 1G.
"All PERSONS desiring to pre-
sent facts OF arguments for or
against the improvement are re-
qucsted so to advise" the board
of army engineers for rivers and
harbors, the army officials said!
The trans-Florida canal, linked
with the gigantic Maine tidal dam
in fight for additional appropria-
tons during the last congress,
may become an issue in the next
congress on basis Of this army re-
port.
The phrase Justified in the
public interest" may become the
center of future fights over the
project. The canals opponents
have contcnded its construction

RALEIGH, Nov. 10. (UP)-
The parliamentary headache of
the 1887 North Carolina general
assembly in all likelihood will be
the new amendments, four Of
which vitality affect the taxing
powers Of the state, its counties,
cities and towns.
Most political observers think
the 1897 session OF the Legislature
will be prolonged for record time
once the amendments are opened
up for discussion.
The legislation called for under
the classification amendment
alone, some political observers be-
lieve. will be sufficient to require
several months study and discus
sion.
Perhaps the biggest wranglc
will evolve from the homestead
exemption amendment. This lcGiS-
lation is not mandatory, however.
The amendment permits the gen
eral assembly TO grant homc-
stead exemption up to 81 ,OOO for
every property owner who lives IN
his own home.
1t is believed the more cOnScrV-
water supplies on which Florida $
agricultural industry depends.
Senator Vandenberg, in LEADING
the fight against congressional
appropriations, emphasized the
contention that it was not eco
nomicallY feasible.

Irony!

There were no rave notices when
the great Galli-Curci sang at the
Chicago Civic Opera the other
week, in what some writer's said
was her comeback" The critics
were gentle-but not too enthusi-
astic. There was more enthusiasm
here about a puppet act at Loew's
State known as "SaliciS Puppets. "
This unheralded act stopped prac-
tically every show and the ap-
plause was thunderous. This was
chiefly because of the leading lady
puppet. Every time she sang, the
audience went wild. The ironic
tag is that the voice behind the
puppet was a Galli-Curci record
ing made many years ago. While
the star in the flesh was being
greeted coldly in Chicago, her
voice on the disc, pulsing through
the animated puppet, was scoring
tremendous success.
