Of Seaway by Canada
During House Debate
By Robert K. Welsh

House debate on the st.

day with a Republican leader
ship declaration that not even
so good a friend as Canada
should have exclusive control Of
a project directly affecting the
United States.
A quorum call demand by

Of Virginia slowed the start Of
four hours Of general debate.
House leaders predicted, how
ever, that the bill approved by

passed early tomorrow after

The bill would authorize
United States participation with
Canada in constructing part of
a 27-foot channel that would
allow ocean-going ships to move
between the Gulf of st. Law
renee in Canada to the Great
Lakes ports in this country.
Representative Allen, Repub-
lican, of Illinois, chairman of

gan the debate by noting that
Canada already has enacted
legislation for the development
project and will go ahead
whether or not Congress- votes
to take part. st. Lawrence sea-
way proposals of one kind or
another have run a rugged
course in Congress for more
than 20 years. Such a develop
ment has been advocated by
every President since Woodrow
Wilson.
Describing the pending bill as
non-partisan and especially de-
Sirable now in the interest of
national defense, Mr.. Allen told
the House:
"1he seaway will be the great

Sanitary Unit Studies
Plan 10 Cut Cost Of
Connecting Utilities

The Washington Suburban
Sanitary Commission is study
ing a plan which District area
home builders say would save
as much as $3.50 in the construc-
ton costs Of new homes.
The commission held a public
hearing yesterday on a proposal
Of the Homebuilders Association
of Metropolitan Washington to
allow commercial plumbers to
make sewer and water connec-
tions to new houses-work now
done partly by commission work.
men and partly by the plumbers.
Warren Browning. the home
builders attorney, said the plan
would reduce the cost Of con-
nections by as much as $750, 900
a year.
Under the present system, the
commission makes a fiat charge
of $299 for sewer and water con-
nections from the mains to the
property lines. Commercial
plumbers do the rest at charges
varying with the job.
Mr.. Browning said elimina-
tion Of duplicate equipment and
workmen' required would re-
suit in a saving that could be
passed along to buyers.
Edward S. McKeown, president
Of the Washington Suburban
Master Plumbers Association,
was noncommittal. He asked for
go days to study it. Other
spokesmen said that. in a poll
taken in 1851, the plumbers
voted, about 2-to-1, that they
did not want the connection
work.
The plumbers association still
is sensitive over the storm of
protests about the alleged in
equity in connection with charges
under the old system.
"We were used as guinea pigs
once before when we were sold
on making connections" said
Mr.. McKeown.
The chief complaint then came
from home buyers on streets
where sewer and water mains
ran down one side of the right
of-way. Residents on one side
paid little for connections, while
those on the other side "got
Stung."
Loss of the revenue the COM
mission now receives from con-
nection fees might have a "seri-
GUS impact" on rates, unless
money for maintenance is raised
by increasing permit fees. warned

chairman of the Allied Civic
Group of Silver Spring.

ges County Civic Federation,

Alabama

(R.-Alabama Democrats re-
nominated Senator John J.
Sparkman. party vice presidential
nominee in 1852, by q comfort
able majority over three OPP
penents in yesterdays primary
despite charges by those OPP
ponents that Senator Sparkman
betrayed his section over the civil
rights issue.
Former Gov. James E. Folsom
led the Seven-man race for Gov
ernor, not far from q majority.
Senator Sparkman was
charged with being "two-faced"
in the 1852 race. Representative
Laurie Battle, most formidable
of his opponents, said Senator
Sparkman posed as a backer of
civil girhts bills in the North,
and as opposing them in the
South.
With 2,O16 of the States 2,715
boxes tabulated today. Senator
Sparkman had 191 .403 votes to
137 1862 for Mr.. Battle; 1886 for
Admiral John Crommelin, re-
tired four years ago in a bitter
feud with the Air Force and
after sharp criticism of admins
tration policies, and 2,778 for
William c. Irby, rs, Jacksonville,
Ala, attorney.
These figures gave Senator
Sparkman more than SIS per cent
of the total vote. Democratic
nomination in the primary is
tantamount to election.
In another bitterly fought
race Mr.. Folsom was far in
front of six opponents with the
possibility that late returns
would give him a majority. Re-
turns from 2,016 boxes gave Mr..
Folsom 47.8 per cent of the vote.
The big Cullman insurance
man, whose antics as Governor
during his 1947-1951 term gave

with 10S,046.
Others in the race Tailed bad
ly. 1t. Gov. James B. Aliens total
was 43, ,138, Bruce Henderson had
9.242, Jack Owen, 13,431; Henry
Sweet, 2.267. and Winston Gull
latte, 1868.
Unless he gets majority, Mr.
Folsom will face a runof pri-
mary June l against Mr.. Faulk-
ner.
The voting was unusually
heavy, due to interest in the bit
ter races for the United States
Senate and Governor and addi-
ton of more than 100000 new
voters. Most of the latter were
added after adoption last De-
cember of a constitutional
amendment limiting back poll
taxes to SO.
Gordon B. Persons, the pres
ent Governor, was barred from
seeking reelection by a State
law which prevents the incum-
bent from succeeding himself.
Six of Alabama's nine Con-
greSSmen were renominated
without opposition. Two others
won denomination over lone OPP
ponents: Representative Ken
meth Roberts defeated young
Tarver Rountree, jr., in the 4th
