UI',' W.VTKRWAiiS RUST ' Siieaking of inland waterway development in his mes.;n,ne to congress, President Coolidge said: ; "lf the country will be content to he moderate and patient, and permit improvements to be made they will do the great est general good, rather than insisting on expendituies at this t.imc on secondary projects, our internal waterways cart lW made a success. If proposed legislation results in a gross manifestation of local jealousies and selfishness, this program cannot be carried out. Ultimately we can take care of extensions, but our first elToit should be confined to the nlain arteries." t This is obviously a fime and logical policy, il' internal waterways are to be developed into sueh a transportation system as they are capable of becoming, supplementing ami rounding out the national railroad system ami stimulating tho latter by offeiing some wholesome competition. . Unfortunately it is not the way waterway development has' been carried on in the past. Usually the opposite pro cedure has been followed. Isolated local projects have been urged, outlying blanches have been attended to before the main arteries, local and sectional rivaliies have Ik-cii al lowed to divert attention from the main issue. Local up. propriations have been prefeircd to basic expenditures for the gdod of the whole public. Log-rolling and pork-barrel methods have crowded out sound engineering and states manship. 3 is time to leveiso the piocess and do the big things realizing that the extensions will then follow as a mat f course. Coolidge's economy complex can be counted w thut Uic roHey becomes effective. i ,0 PERKINS MOTOR CO. La Grande, Oregon ; ; iJUOKXH,, Ore., Uee. Ui.
