A Good Harbor And River Bill
Charge That It Is a "Pork Barrel" Measure Resented Representative Lawrence Discusses It.
. (Palladium Special) Washington,, D. C, June 30. Up to
the time when President Taft attached
his signature to the River and Harbor bill, some of .the newspapers continued to class the waterways measure as a
"pork barrel bill. As a matter of fact "pork barrel", legislation does no more fit the bill than it would fit the post-
office appropriation bill, for both measures concern the entire country, white
the public buildings and grounds bill interest only the localities In which
sites are to be purchased and public
buildings erected. Representative George P. Lawrence, of Massachusetts, who was one of the conferees on the River and Harbor bill,

which carries in the neighborhood of $52,000,000, has some very pronounced views on the subject of "pork barrel
measures, especially with reference to the development of the waterwajs oi the country. :
In discussing the measure and its generally very acceptable character, Mr. Lawrence said: - "Many years ago river and, harbor bills were passed without very scrupul
ous regard for reports of engineers or
the merits of particular projects. Such
bills were passed under suspension of the rules, without opportunity for discussion or amendment, and naturally resulted in two instances, at least, in
well remembered vetoes. . It was un
der such conditions that the title of
'pork barrel bills came into use.
"During the past ten years there has
been an entirely different system in
vogue. The great bills of 1902, 1905 1907 and of the present year were ev
ery one of them) considered In tha House with the fullest opportunity focriticism and amendment to each and every section. There has been a constant effort to make the legislative basis for river and harbor appropria
tions more 6trict. We have created a Board of Review, consisting of five engineer officers of the Army. The policy of the Committee since 1902 has been to insist that before a project should be included in a river and harbor bill there must be a preliminary
examination and survey, made by the
local engineer, passed upon by the division engineer, and reported favorably by the Board of Review and the Chief
of Engineers. Very few exceptions to this policy have been made since 1902
and such action was generally taken in conference, because it was considered necessary to save a bill. And I may say right here that there are no new projects in this bill that were not approved by the Board of Engineers. The Senate added several objectionable items, but the House conferees won In their contention that every such provision mush go out of the bill. "I have assisted in preparing four general river and harbor bills and I wish to bear testimony to the self-
sacrificing and conscientious work
done by members of the Committee. The public can have little conception of the amount of labor required.
When one considers that there are now recommended by the engineers
Droiects calling for expenditure of
three or four hundred million dollars
most of them .vigorously pressed, it
can be seen that it Is not easy to limit a bill to $50,000,000. "I have never known of sectionalism or politics playing a part in the work
of the Committee. I have never had
occasion to suspect that deals of any
nature were being made The projects stand or fall on merit. Of course, er
rors of judgment have been made, both by the engineers and the Committee. But I submit that river and har
bor bills will bear as close scrutiny as any appropriation bills that are considered by Congress. The present bill is
superior to its predecessors, in that it has been constructed with freater re
gard for definite plans and businesslike methods. It has taken some cour
age to plan for the completion of great projects, requiring great expenditure within a limited period. We have.
however, done so and the "dribbling' policy formerly pursued is doomed.
"I have read with much interest the
suggestions of the president about fu
ture waterway bills, when he signed
the River and Harbor bill and I be
lieve them excellent. I have no doubt bis suggestions will be carried out by
the Committee."

sideration of the house, it would be able to command the support necessary to pass it- The specious argu
ments employed by the companies in opposing the measure provoked much mirth among the national legislators.
Learned counsel for the monopoly con
tended that few men in the country
desire their wives to know the filing
time of a message and traveling sales
men are averse to their employers hav ing such information.
This line of argument recalls to
mind the pithy comment made before the Massachusetts legislature a year ago by Patrick B. Delany, inventor of the Telepost Automatic Telegraph sys
tem, who said when a similar law was under consideration for that common
wealth, that the only persons wbo opposed the filing time were "sporty husbands and tricky drummers. The advocates of the tiling time at Washington insist that Inasmuch as the government notes the sending time on all its mail matter and the Telepost system carries it In New England and

MONOPOLY CONTESTED IT
(American News Service) Washington, D. C, June 30. The bill requiring the telegraph companies to carry free the filing time" of all messages given to them for inter-state transmission has again been lost. Tbo lobbyists of the monopoly who were very active about the Capitol for several weeks in connection with this measnreKto the enactment of which the companies are unalterably opposed, had it choked to death In committee. Colonel Clowry, President of the Western Union, testifying last winter before a committee of the New York State Legislature, said such a law would mean the gratuitous transmis
sion of 18,000,000 words a year by his company. In view of the fact that the
company has been paying dividends of but three percent for some years, he said compulsory legislation along these lines would prove ruinous to the Western Union. Strenuous efforts were made in the closing days of Congress to force the bill out of Committee in
the hope that if submitted to the con
