Sound-Columbia
Canal Approved

WASHINGTON - The National
Rivers and Harbors congress said
Saturday that worthwhile works
to provide adequate waterway
transportation and to prevent
flood catastrophes are vital to our
national defense program"
At meeting here of chief
executive officers of waterway,
flood control and conservation
groups, the congress asked for
legislation to make preliminary in
vestigations for a comprehensive
long range project"
The organization said, however,
that 1t was in accord with Presi-
dent Roosevelt's recommendation
that non-essential expenditures be
held to minimum, and thus was
not seeking an increase in appro-
priations at this time. Funds
should be provided. it said, for
maintenance of existing projects
and construction of those lessen
tial to the defense program"
