GOV. HARDING URGES GREAT LAKES ROUTE AT FARMERS' MEETING

(By Associated Press) INDIANAPOLIS, Ind.. Dec. 1 6. Claiming that the expenditure of $300,000,000 for the proposed improvement of the Great Lakes-St Lawrence river, for an ocean-going steamer outlet to the Bea . would be a profitable investment. Governor William L. Harding, of Iowa, today addressed the recood annual convention of the American .Farm Bureau federation.. "Improvement of the Great LakesSt. Lawrence route is now proposed as an international undertaking," Bald Governor Harding. . "America has many domestic problems pressing now for solution. In my iurgment there are three subjects

that must be solved before any of the otners can be adequately approached for solution. These are: First Transportation. Second Conservation of food. Third Marketing or distribution. "An object of given weight can be moved over dead water, or against a current, with less friction than over a steel rail. "Until man, through his inventive genius. Is able to cut the suspenders of the law of gravity, water transportation will be about five times less , costly than rail transportation. Water Transport Cheaper. "The transportation furnished by nature, and which is the most ecotnomicaU has been little developed and (little used by the people of the United States. From Duluth and all the lake ports, by way of the St. Lawrence no Boston and all Atlantic ports, Is lown hill. With the aid of engineers .and a comparatively small amount of .money, the journey back can be made ion a water grade. Within the past 25 Tears, or even less, there has been a miost remarkable In maritime development on the American Great Lakes. Duluth to Chicago, to Buffa

lo, these lakes extend approximately fl.OOO miles. The country round about

fthese ureal uanes is ricn in naiura.1 (resources, and within the last half century, there has been such developixnent on and around these Great Lakes1 that today they produce tonnage almost unbelievable. The tonnage on these Great Lakes exceeds that of the Mediterranean and the Black seas combined. "It is within the Information of .veryone that the territory around and adjaent to the Great Lakes produces Immense quanties of wheat and all

kinds of grain, iron, coal and copper, and in connection therewith has become a great manufacturing center. Heavy Traffic. "Automobiles, rails, and all heavy steel products, flour, foodstuffs, packing products, and the entire output of the mines and factories and the soil, must go eastward over the waters of the Great Lakes to the port of Buffalo, and then be transferred to the rails and move the last part of their journey either to the interior or th3 seaboard by car, rather than by boat. "Between the eastern end of Lake Erie and sea level in the St Lawrence river,, a distance of about 400 miles, there are two natural obstacles which prevent navigation. The first is the falls of Niagara, and the second the rapids of the St. Lawrence. For many years there has been operated successfully, shallow canals and locks around both of these obstacles. These

have not been sufficient to accommo

date ocean going , vessels, but have been enough to demonstrate that it is feasible to go around these two nat ural obstacles. Would Shorten Distance. "We cannot move the farms of Iowa to the ocean, but. we can move the ocean 1,500 miles .nearer to the Iowa farmer. "At the present time the rate on grain from Duluth to Boston can be hauled part water and part rail five cents per bushel cheaper than it can be hauled by all rail It does not take an advance student in mathematics to figure what a saving there would be to the consumer and what an advantage It will be to the producer if the haul was all by water. "It will make possible for the American farmer an outlet to the world markets for his surplus products, and this is necessary, if we expect to maintain our agricultural standards. This project will cost possibly $300,' 000,000. However, it need not be a burden upon the taxpayers, but rather can be made into a profitable investment by the government, for there is opportunity to develop hydro-electric projects, which can be the greatest in the world."

The whale can jump out' of the water to a height of 25 feet with the greatest ease.

GOVERNMENT ADDS NEW SECURITIES FOR COMING YEARS SALES COLUMBUS. 0.,'Dec 6. A $1 war saving stamp and a $25 treasury savings certificate are to be added in 1921 to the list of savings securities being sold by the government through the war savings organizations. However the word "war" is to be dropped in 192Land war. savings stamps hereafter are to be known as treasury savings stamps. In , making the announcement of the continued sale of the war savings securities, the treasury department declared that the demand for such securities was so insistent that the people could not be

denied. This holds true, particularly-in Ohio, where $135,000,000 of the war savings securities have been sold, of which 1m than onp-fifth have been redeem

ed. Ohio during the last year has sold one fifth of the total amount of war pavings stamps sold in the nation. War Savings Stamps and treasury savings certificates are the only securities practically that have not declined in value. They have increased monthly. Equal to 6 Per Cent. The government issues a 25 cent thrift stamp, a $5 war savings stamp, a $100 and $1,000 treasury savings certificates, the 25 cent thrift stamp and the new $1. treasury savings stamp will be non-interest bearing but all other issues will be nearly the equivalent of a 6 per cent investment. The new $1 Eavings stamps will be hi-ipi-it rA in onlnr inmrinted on creen

tint and will bear the head of Alex

ander Hamilton, the first secretary or the treasury. The $25 savings certficates will be similar in design and terms to the treasury certificates of $100 and $1,000 maturity value, although of different color. The 1921 war savings stamp of $5 maturity value to be known as the treasury savings stamp will be larger in size than the 1920 issue, will be orange in color and bear' the head of Lincoln. The treasury savings certificates of $100 and $1,000 maturity value will be continued in 1921.

BETTER THAN CALOMEL Thousands Have Discovered Dr. Edwards' Olive Tablets .are a Harmless Substitute Dr. Edwards Olive Tablets the substitute for calomel are a mild but sure laxative, and their effect on the liver i3 almost instantaneous. These little olivecolored tablets are the result of Dr. Edwards determination not to treat liver and bowel complaints with calomel. The pleasant little tablets do the good that calomel does, but have no bad after effects. They don't injure the teeth like strong liquids or calomel. They take hold of the trouble and quickly correct it. Why cure the liver at the expense of the teeth? Calomel sometimes plays havoc with the gums. So do strong liquids. It is best not to take calomel. Let Dr. Edwards' Olive Tablets take its place. Headaches, "dullness" and that lazy feeling come from constipation and a disordered liver. Take Dr. Edwards Olive Tablets when you feel "logy" and "heavy." They "clear" clouded brait and "perk up' ' the spirits, 1 5 c and 30c. Advertisement.

After today's' session opened, Paul Hymans, the president, presented Senor Pueyrredon's letter td the assembly, and said he had expressed personally to the head of the Argentine mission his deep regret at the step it had taken. : Object to Withdrawal. Lord Robert Cecil, delegate for the Union of South Africa, then took the floor, saying: "If other delegations

should be allowed to take the same ' step when their proposals are not ac- H"

cepted, it would be impossible for the league to make any progress." "The act of no single country," Lord Roberts added, "can diminish our faith In the success of the league, after the great strides that have been made

toward the object in view. All that is needed are courage, candor and consideration for one another." It is declared here that virtually . every delegate regards Argentine's action as an error in tactics. ; Withdrawal of the Argentine delega-' tion from the assembly of the league : of nations at (Jeneva does not seem to be endorsed by the British press, so far as opinion is reflected in editorial ! comments.
