IN FULL TILT FOR SUBSIDY

PLEADS FOR INLAND WATERWAY PROJECTS

BT GEORGE R. HOLMI5S WASillJsXrraX. Nov. 22 President Harding- launched full tilt today Into the hardest fight that has thua far marked his occupancy of the white house and tho leadership o his party the tattle to Jam the ship ubsldy bill through a congress that Is none too willing, where It Is not downrlgrht hostile. President Hardlngr, who has assumed personal command of the fljrht and his legislative advisers believe they grained vote for the measure by the cold dollar And cents arg-ument advanced by the president In his special message Tuesday. Most of the opposition to the ship subsidy crisis from the grain belt region. The Impression Is g-eneral throughout the grain belt that the ship subsidy bill will allow big- Interests to dip Into the treasury, and this Impression the president believes, has been largely eradicated by-stressing-the argument that actual savlnjr to the treasury can be effected by enacting the bill. A new poll of the house, taken by

administration lieutenants, Indicates, they said today, that, the bill will yn-KB the house by a majority or out 30 votes. The majority is not targe enough to give the supporters "f the measure any feeling- of comfort, for absenteeism and disgruntled -lame ducks" can wipe that out In the twinkling of an eye. Representative Gamer, of Texas, Oldfield, of Arkansas, and Garrett, nf Tennessee, democratic leaders today asserted tho democrats would oppose It almost to a man. Representative Dickinson, republican, of Iowa, one of the leaders of tho farm bloc was circulating an amendment to the bill today designed to appeal particularly to the agriculturalists. He proposed that producers be Riven a preferential freight rate to seaboard, equal to 25 per cent of the total cost of transportation. In the senate the fate of the president's measure Is in doubt. The lines there are more tigrhtly drawn than In the house, and the agricultural and militant progressive gToup Is stronger. The president will do a lot of "missionary work."' In the senate In tho next few weeks. Senator LaFollette's opposition was undiminished by the president's messagre, as was Senator Borah's.

Emphasis on Importance Of Illinois Drainage Canal Is Laid. BY HARRY R. FLORY f STAFF CORRESPONDENT I. N. SERVICE CHICAGO. Nov. 22 Karnest pleas for support for three inland waterway projects, the Great Lakes-St. Lawrence schema, the Atlantic-

Mississippi canal and tho Illinois Drainage canal, were voiced by speakers at the convention of the Southern Commercial congress here today. The proposed Atlantic-Mississippi canal was called "next to Importance to the Panama canal," by

J"hi o. Kii;e, p-tsiuent of la.North Florida chamber of commerce. The canal, Ruge explained, would bo 215 miles in length, extending from Cumberland Sound, between the states of Georgia and Florida, to St. George's Sound or Apalachlcola Ray, on the Mississippi river. It was first proposed in 1X63 and has been discussed indlfferently ever since. "How long will this country submit to the loss of many millions each year In the products of the

west for failure to move them?" Ruge asked. "The Great I,akes-St. Iawrence route puts the Atlantic ocean Into the great west. The Florida canal puts the Mississippi into the ocean. We need them both. "Our greatest national mistake has been our failure to develop a -aterv:iys j-yst- in aloncslde with the railroad system, and yet the cheapest way to move freight Is to float it. 'Tho crux of th situation Is that when the great west wakes up and

will co-operate with us of the south )

to develop the salt water ports, to take tho strain off the present northern and eastern terminals, then, and not until then will the relief we are all seekliiK come to the farmers of the west, the manufacturers of the east and the shippers of the south." Every square foot of American soil will feet the stimulus of the Great Lakes-St. Lawrence waterway project." declared II. O. Gardner, president of the Great Iikes-St. Lawrence t'dewater association. "The St. Lawrence Improvement will help tremendously toward the spread of prosperity throughout the whole region surrounding the great lakes and indirectly throughout the whole country." Tow er v noratd hv the St. T-aw-rence project would pay almost the entire cost of the Improvement. Gardner, said. All clt!e3 in the

densely populated regions of New England, N?w York stato and New Jersey would benefit by lower powr costs. h T'oIntd ort. and sail that electrical power could be transmitted to Boston at s cost of one cent a kllowat hour, where It now

costs not less than three cents at the power house. Both speakers emphasized the Importance of the Illinois Drainage

, canal, linking up Chicago and other

ports on the Great Lakes with tho Mississippi river. Ruge read a letter from Governor John M. Parker of Louisiana, endorsing the Atlantic-Mississippi canal, and also an expression from President Harding, In which the President anid. "I will do my best to further the developement of the Mississippi valley." Tho Atlantic-Mississippi canal is needed, Ituce i. :ar i ! o carry t byproducts of Muscle Shoals. Endorsement of Henry Ford's Okfer to develop Muscle Shoals was voiced by another speaker, W. T. McCown, president of the Lincoln county. Tennessee, chamber of commerce. The convention will close tonight with a banquet at which the gov"iti of threi- st N'uurasKii. Maryl.ind and Virginia are scheduled to speak.

NEW YEAR PARTY

RUINED HAPPINESS

It was a gay old New Year's party that Mr. and Mrs. Frank Kwiecinskl attended at the home of a friend in Hammond last January 1st. But it spelled ruin for the marital happiness of the Kwleclnskls . Frank started hitting the moonshine early in the evening. It was not long until he was nicely Intoxicated. His wife Helen, tried to quiet him but his hilarity grew apace. At midnight she begged him bid the host and his "white mule'' good night. Frank lingered a little longer and finally gave up. They started home. On the atreet h became nasty. He called her all sorts of vile names and told her he was all through with her. The row ended with Frank going one way and Helen the other. Helen has never seen him since then. She has heard that he Is in Wisconsin. Today she filed ault in the Superior court of Hammond. They were marrlod August Sth, 1921.

any ether State, California is expected to rank second among the States this year in the number of machines registered. Auto Club statistics show that there are 834,li2 automobiles registered in California today, allowingan increase of 400 automobiles a day. New York, which has always ranked l'ir.'t in its automobile registration, had 012,031 curs replatrred on Januady 1.

One afternoon at a bad-ball fame was enough to tke a thirty-third degree fan of Reginald McKenna, former British Chancellor of the Exchequer, and now Chairman of one of the largest banks in England. The ex-Cabinet officer risited this country in ear" October to attend the bankers' convention, and one of the strictly American things which he taw was a ball game during the world's series between the Giants and the Yankees. More than that, Bab'" Ruth autographed a baseball tor the distinguished Briton, and, according to McKenna, it was "a case of love at first sight with the Babe. In the following excerpt from a letter to Raymond E. Jones, First Vice President of the Bank of Manhattan Company, New York, McKenna describes his conversation to Babe Ruth and baseball. "I have received a marvelous memento of my first and only visit to a baseball game. Never did

any one oecome a full-developed "fan" so rapidly as I. It wns . case of love at first sight with Babe Ruth, and I shall cherisL the memento you have sent me of a glorious afternoon. Please thank Colonel T. L. Huston for me."

A match for the world's racquet championship has been arra-ged between Jock Souttar r the Racquet club, Philadelphia, and C. Williams of the Queen club. West Kensington, near London.

Leonard look chi lp a few short months ago. Now Walke comes along and without any ceremony batters Britton all over the rin.T. What does that make o Leonard? On the face of things, Leon. .J seems to be going back even faster than has been suspected. F I-lowir-ff his affair wit'i Britton, he was almost knocked out by Lew Tendler. Tendlrr has graduated into the welterweieht class and soon will issue a chalkng- to Walker, but it is not likely that Leonard will annoy the new title holder to anv great extent. Walker is not the best fighter in the world, but he appears to bn too rough and strong for Leonard to fool with. Bennj probably has

no amDiuon ro ne welterweight champion. There is a lot of hard work attached to that position and the pav is not as large as it might be. The going is softer and the returns greater in the lightweight division and that is where Leonard will stick as long as he remains in the rxng.

President Charles H. Ebbets of the Brooklyn National League . is going to Europe. The Flat h magnate is not going across the sea to dodge holdouts or start a baseball league in Franco, but 'i poing on an extended p'easure trip. He will sail December 18, and will return to this country on Feb 7 cn the Aquitania. He will visit London, Glasgow, Dublin, Paris, Berlin, Antwerp and Brussels, While in Europe Ebbets may receive cables from his holdouts. He may come back ith a couple of French or German infielders or maybe a few Belgian six day bike riders. Perhaps ha will leave the riders behind him and onlv lirinir

the bikes to be used by some f hlj ball players on the base paths.
