LA GRANDE EVENING
Ocean Ships' Entry
NEW YORK V-The vast middle
west ts reaching toward the sea.
With ratification of the treaty Just
signed between the United States and
Canada, probably at the next session
of congress, the final stage of con
necting the Great Lakes with the At
lantic by a St. Lawrence channel for
ocean going vefeuels will bo entered
upon.
The channel, which will add an
estimated 36.000,000 tons of cargo
to Oreat Lakes shipping the year it
is opened, also brings some 2.000,000
horsepower to New York state and
Ontario for division.
The power development, second
ary to the seaway so far as the na
tion Is concerned. Is of vital Impor
tance to New York. '
New York Claims Power
New York wants, and claims title
to, tho power, but whether, she will
pay some $150,000,000 as her share
of tho development expense remains
to be seen. .
Governor Roosevelt, democratic
presidential nominee, asked recently
for a conference with President
Hoover on the power question, but
tho president declined. The gov
ernor has insisted the power must
belong publicly to the state, not to
private developers.
Contrary to popular beiier, the
Great Lakes -St. Lawrence waterway
is no longor a vast project requiring
billions of dollars for realization,
between Lake Ontario and Mont
real. A deep channel for ocean
going ships will cost close to (300,1
000.000. ,lt is estimated. The most
difficult problem will be the slx-mial
canal with two locks on the American
side around Barnhart Island.
The one other section to be opened
Is the three-mile Lachlno canal, Just
west of Montreal. . This project, to
bo undertaken by Canada, call be
completed easily by tho time the
international section Is finished.
From time to time other links
have been forged In tho chain of
lakes, rivers and canals.
Tho most Important was opened
this year with completion by the
Canadian government of the new
Well and canal at a cost of 9100,000,
000. For years glganic drcdgeB have
been at work at widely scattered
points.
Today the Inst Important link to
bo forged is tho 40-mlle "interna
tional rapids" section of the river.

AND POLICE
IN SCUFFLE

ward on New York avenue, away from
tho White House. They said they
wero headed for their billets.
They marched off after policemen
had asked Pace whero he was going.
"Well," the policemen sold, point
ing away from the White House,
"walk in that direction."
"But wo want to go to look at
tho White House," Pace said.
Tho policeman took him by the
arm and started him down New York
avenue directly away from the execu
tive mansion. Pace went wlWi only
a slight show of resistance and. his
followers, after a few yolls of disgust,
followed him.
"Wall street government," was the
principal shout.
Spectators Jam Streets
Several thousand spectators Jom-.
med the streets.
Eotlt of the men take Into custody
struggled fiercely with the police.
Other members of the veterans
group Immediately began to scatter.
Meantime the area about the White
House was quiet with npeotators
cleared from the avenue and La
Fayetto park -where members of the
veterans group had congregated
earlier, ' ' .,
At 13th ond F streets, In the heart
of the business district, as the main
wing continued to their billets, one
of the morchers snatched a police
man's pistol from Its holster during
a scuffle and" ran rapidly down tho
streets.
No shots were Immediately fired,
ns police took ip the chase.
The trouble at this Intersection
developed whop an obdurate veteran
refused to leave the sidewalk as or
dered by a policeman.
He swung at the officer. Although
mast of his companions had followed
police orders, some returned to Join
in the affray.
Soon there Were half a dozen sep
arate melees going full tilt, short
lived but active.
Meanwhile, the veterans were faced
with an order to evacuate federal
property by midnight tonight. They
were attempting to decide whether
to obey the edict or fight It in the
courts.
Some (iet .tonus Loans
Many of the former service men
leaving the encampments went to the
veterans administration to apply for
50 per cent of their bonus due them
' under legislation passed at the last
sesMon of congress.
Efforts were made to pay those in
Washington who arc due money on
the certificates.
Heretofore loans were made only on
ccrtiticates that woro two years or
more old. Recent legislation reduc
ing the interest rate on bonus loans
also made certificates less than two
years old el'glble as security for
loans.
Frank T. Hlnes. the administrator
of veterans affairs, said today the
men would be able to borrow through
their regional oftlces quicker than
in Washington.
At midnight last night approxi
mately P. 000 bonus army veterans had
obtained transportation home from
the veterans administration, Hlnes
estimated that between 3000 and 2500
remained in and around the capital.
A chapter of tl Left-Handed

SEACOAST FOR
To Lakes
Likely To Slash Grain Rates
Here, encountering the Niagara
escarpment, a drop of 336 feet is
made In a little over 35 miles. Seven
locks, each with a lift of 40 feet, out
rivaling even the gigantic Panama
canal looks, were built.
One of the seven, at H umbers tone,
Is the longest In the world 1380
feet. The channel, 310 feet wide
and 30 feet deep, is capable of han
dling 05 per cent of the ocean car
riers. Recently the Canadian parliament
voted to take over the Beauchamols
canal, connecting Lakes Francis and
St. Louis, between Ogdeneburg, N.
Y and Montreal. This canal, 14
miles long. Is nearlng completion.
Isles Hectlon Nearly Done
A 27-foot channel through the
Thousand islands section will be
virtually complete this year, allow
ing ships from the lakes to proceed
250 miles farther east than ever be
fore. This Is a 67-mile stretch. 1
Meanwhile huge dredges are at
work in harbors and channels of
the Great Lakes. . Last year con
gress appropriated almost $30,000,
000 to deepen these channels from
20 to 27 feet.
Altogether the various develop
ments .indicate that within four to
eight years ocean freighters will be
docking at Oreat Lakes ports.
Some of tho largest cities in the
country, including ; Chicago, Detroit,
Cleveland to Toledo, will be
reached by the waterway. Duluth
ranks second only to New York as a
port in point of tonnage.
The - net value of Oreat Lakes
shipping reached a total of $2,496.

Huge TonnngeForepen
President Hoover, when secretary
of commerce, caused a survey of ca
nal possibilities to be made In 1026.
Tho lowest .estimate was that 26,
000,000 tons would bo carried
through the canal tho year It is
opened. , -
It is estimated that wheat could
be carried from Duluth to Liverpool
from 8 to 10 cents cheaper on the
bushel via the waterway.
Middle western ports, teeming
with commerce and seeking shorter
and cheaper transportation, have
pressed the waterway plan with
more vigor as the result of the ship
ment of wheat this season from Al
berta and Saskatchewan by way of
the New Hudson bay route.

highly Interested in a larger share of
of tho British meat, fruit and dairy
products market but had come into
conference, as Premier Bonnett said,
prepared to make concessions to Brit

basic industries of both countries
should bo the ones selected for pref

On the welfare of the major Indus
tries, he sold, depended the welfare
of the countries themselves. This was
taken to Imply that Canada wanted
the conference to make some disposi
tion of her annual wheat surplus
problem. The possibility has not
passed, however, that the London
government may still attempt an em

Demand Boycott
A virtual demand has been made
that the British markets boycott
Russian wheat and take empire grain

The unofficial British view of tho
British delegation was that Senator
Borah's offer to support an interna
tional conference to deal with war
debts involved the success of the con.,
ference here.
While the delegates Insisted the
position of the chairman of the
foreign affairs committee of the
American senate was a matter for
London to discuss they indicated that
definite action on war debts was a
necessary complement to the accom
plishments of this conference.
A spokesman said leadership of the
kind Senator Borah seemed willing to
offer should make tt possible to work
toward an International agreement
on many major economic problems of
the world. He said Europe long had
hoped for some leadership in the
i United States, believing commodity
price recovery hinged on a settlement
of the question which the American .
view so far has made impossible. .
.,. Throughout Canada, yesterday was
a day of prayer for the success of
the conference.
