STATE HARBOR NEAR GARY IS UNLIKELY NOW Haileck Refuses to Be Discouraged; Will Push for Action. Ba T'nitrd Pmin WASHINGTON, April 16.—Hope for congressional action to complete a public harbor for northen Indiana appeared dead today. House Rivers and Harbors Committee Chairman Joseph J. Mansfield (D., Tex.), said he feared action this session on Rep. Charles A. Haileck s bill directing Army engineer's survey was impossible. “These survey bills usually are grouped together to form a socalled ‘omnibus bill,”' Rep Mansfield said. “Generally, we bring out one only once every three years. “However, I recognize the public interest in these proposals and We will do our very best to have one next year.” Last Was in 1935 The last “omnibus” survey bill reported out by Rep. Mansfield’s committee was in August, 1935. Previous to that, action had been had in 1925, 1927 and 1930. Following 1930, there was a five-year gap. Rep. Haileck. however, refused to be discouraged. When the Army engineers refused favorable consideration to his Burns’ ditch proposal and advised that “the selection of the site . . . should be based on a comprehensive review of the hole available frontage” he promptly introduced a bill directing a survey along the suggested lines. “The important part of their report,” Rep. Haileck declared, “is that the engineers recognize ‘the probable future need of a suitable harbor for general commercial use on the lake shore of Indiana.’

Calls Suggestion Proper Declaring the “fight has Just begun,” Rep Haileck said he “was still for the Burns Ditch because it is undoubtedly the best location.” “However, we have nothing to fear from a survey of the whole frontage. Such a survey will bear out our contentions regarding our project. "Construction of the harbor at Burns’ Ditch will bring about a great industrial development because the location and circumstances are right.” "Such money will be appropriated in the future,” he said, “and we are simply seeking to obtain for Indiana a, share of that money.” He concluded with the assertion that “Indiana, is entitled to this harbor—the fight has just begun.” SPONSORS CARD PARTY Legion Post lo Aid Srhool Band's Cleveland Trip.

BROWN COUNTY BLOSSOMS TO ATTRACTMANY Best Showing Is Expected Late This Month, Says Director. Blossoming of the dogwood and redbud the latter part of this month is expected to attract thousands of visitors to the Brown County State Park, Myron L. Rees, director of state park lands and waters, said today Like the Japanese cherry blossoms at Washington and the apple blossoms at Winchester, Va., the dogwood and redbud blossoms in Brown County have become a seasonal attraction, Mr. Rees said. Mr. Rees’ office already has received many inquiries from distant points a.-} to the probable time when the blossoms will be in their best bloom. Winter Hurts Dogwood Due to the severe winter, the dogwood blossoms are not expected to be as plentiful as usual. There should be the usual display of redbuds, however, Mr. Rees said. He pointed out that the topography of the state park with its steep hills and the wild nature of its scenery affords a continuous succession of lovely views, particularly in the spring blossom time and in the fall when the leaves are turning. Many trails for hiking and horseback riding and an extensive road system have been provided for the convenience of visitors. Archery Tournament Sunday A feature of the spring blossom time, inaugurated last year, is to be an archery tournament Sunday, directed by Abe Andrews, state fish hatcheries superintendent and a skilled archer. An area of 1500 acres for archery hunting grounds has been set aside in the game preserve section of the

park. Although hunting with firearms is forbidden in the preserve, archers are given hunting privileges with bow and arrow within the prescribed area during the hunting season. A limited number of rabbits, wild turkeys and quail were brought down by expert archers last fall. Riding Trails Open Horseback riding over the park riding trails has also become a popular sport, Mr. Rees said. A number of horses are kept in the park for the use of visitors, and several riding clubs from Indianapolis, Columbus and Franklin ship their horses to the park for weekend riding. Extensive improvements are being made in the park by the State Park Division of the National Park Service. Among these are anew hotel, a stable for riding horses, numerous shelters and picnic areas, and improved water supply and sanitary facilities. Also new trails and roads have been constructed during the fall and winter months. An entire Civilian Conservation Corps Company is quartered in the park for this work.
