Concurrent consideration of national policies. Points of contact for the development of Inter national policy. This may not sound like much of an achievement, out it ia put forward as the greatest progress ever made hy a project of similar magnitude in the same length of time. Discussion at the outset naturally waa among those most vitally concerned. When theaa were agreed on what should be done and how to go about doing it, then the big job came on. It waa not alone the great inland empire, drained hy tha Missisaippi and its tributaries that had to be interested. The United States east of the Alle ghenies and the people west of the Rockies must be converted to the great plan for bringing the Atlantic ocean 1,600 miles further inland. All the ports on both coasts were interested in the matter, and some of them imagined their inter ests were adversely affected. Atlantic coast ports especially felt their prestige was in danger. If the farm and other products of the great central valley were to find an outlet to tidewater at the head of navigation on the lakes, what would become of ex isting harbors? Education was necessary, and now the report is that New England is for the canal, while along the south Atlantic seaboard opposition is fast giving way. So, tooj the west coast ports have come to see what the benefit will be to them. Especially are Oregon and Washington interested, for it will permit their principal crop, lumber, to get into a market that is now hampered by reason of high freight rates. Consumers within 500 miles of the Atlantic can get a water and rail rate that is better than the direct all rail rate. If the lumber is hauled by water as far as Chicago, Omaha and points west may share in this advantage. So Oregon and Washington are in line for the ship canal up the St. Lawrence. Canada had to be "sold” on the proposition, and Montreal, the great gateway at which ocean-going boats now halt, is set against the plan. Opposition there has not been sufficient to check the action of the Canadian government. In 1919, under President Wilson, an international joint commission was named to investigate and report. In April, 1920, the com mission undertook the work, and in November, 1921, a hearing was had on the engineers’ report. In De cember, 1921, President Harding submitted the re port to congress, and declared the plan feasible. In May, 1922, the matter was taken up at Ottawa on a not* from the United States government, and tha Canadian authorities responded the time was dot ripa for proceeding. In December, 1923, Presi dent Coolidge said to congress: "The time has com* to return* In a moderate way th* .... Improvement of th* waterway! de velopment from the Oreat Lakes toward the Oulf of Meslco. and th* development of the great power and navigation project of the St. lAwrence river, for which efforta ar* now being made to accur* the necessary treaty with fanada . . . t'pon these proj ect* depend much future Industrial and agrlcul - tural progress." Canada is now ready to go along to the extent of appointing an engineering board of review, to ex amlna plana and estimates already reported, and to answer such further questions as may be submitted, Cgnada will also appoint a national committee to formulate a national policy and program. The United States already has a similar committee. On the ahowing so far, the progress of the enter prise seems such as portends not only unusual ac tivity on part of the agencies that are promoting it, but success as well. What it means to the region it will aerva is beyond calculation. It will reduce the cos^ of transportation, and serve not only world hut domestic traffic as well. It meuns millions to Nebraska in reduced freight rates, it means hun dred* of millions to the region drained by the Mississippi. ' Waters that now run Idly to the sea must he brought into the service of mankind. Tha f.akes-to Ocean waterway is one of the plans for doing this. MESSING UP THE GOVERNMENT. Representative Upshaw of Georgia is out with the latest nostrum to cure the ills of government. He would have all tho cabinet officers elected at the same time tho president is elected. This of course would give the people the ehoiee of heads of the several de partment# Into which for convenience the federal government is divided. It might result In a demo crat at the head of the War, a republican at the head of tho Navy, a farmer-laborita in charge of the Post office department, but by no stretch of luck would W# get a dirt farmer In the Department of Agricul ture. Such an one might land in the Treasury, and the aeheme holds other attractive vistas down which the imagination can stroll with pleasure. What would happen to the government? Under the constitution "the executive power shall be vested in a president of the United States of America." Sup pose, for illustration, that Mr. Coolidge were presi dent and Senator Heflin were secretary of the treas ury. How murh would Mr. Coolidge have to say about the running of that, department? Or if Sena tor Reed ahould be elected secretary of state, how fat would Coolidge get on hi* own hook In dealing with another nation?

One waa that It pay# to be faithful, that, kindnesa ia not alway* wasted, and that induitry i* essential to *ucce*a, #ven in politic*. As chieftain of the hoat* of Tammany, he loomed big in the affair# of hi* party, both in New York and the nation. He wa* denounced without *tint by Mr. Bryan, and yet, when the hour for voting came, Charlie Murphy wa* relied upon to go along with the organization. Hi* loyalty to hi* party, no matter who wa* at it* head, wa* pn# of his real assets. Tammany will not disappear because another of Its bosses has laid down the burden of chieftainship. It is the surest, smoothest running political machine ever devised in this country. Another leader will come up, prove himself or get out of the way of some abler man. But Tammany will go on, dominat ing the public affairs of New York city, till such time as the voters of New York rally in sufficient opposition to overturn the great mechanism that makes the government of the metropolis. Tammany is good or bad, just as those who judge it are in or out of the combination. It is a singular outgrowth of our form of governmynt, has had many imitators, but no peers. To he boss of Tammany is no mean distinction, and to have won that crown as Charles F. Murphy did, by dint of energy and ability, is a credit to any man. DANGEROUS ELEMENT IN COMMERCE. A few years ago Americans were entertained, if not especially edified by Charles Edward Russell's dissertations on the traveling refrigerators, published as “The Yellow Bandit of Commerce.” Instead of having the efTect aimed at, the book apparently stimulated the use of the refrigerator car. At any rate, more and more service is required from them each passing day. Instead of being stigmatised as a “yellow bandit," the car that safely transports food is regarded as a benefactor. f reight traffic men are now preparing to deal with a phase of the situation which has developed to a high degree as a result of the war experience of the nation. The “tramp car,” so called, haa a distinct and definite location in trade. It permits the carrying on of speculation in food product*. Frequently this is to the detriment of th# public, and never with any particular public aervire. Those who recall the disclosures made during the sugar inquiry in 1920 will remember tales of how carloads of sugar were kept on the road for week* and months, never reaching a final destination. Title was transferred from broker to broker, routing was changed daily, and the food that was needed was shunted from train to train, from road to road, all because the price was going up and speculators, rather than actual business men, could turn a profit. A few years ago government Inspectors chased a big consignment of eggs for days all over th# Chi- 1 cago terminal yards, while brokers shifted the bills of lading from hand to hand jn an effort to control the market. Such deals as these have brought the practice into disrepute. None will contend that the feed-ln transit, mill-in-transit, and other similar devices are not of service. So, too, is the reconsignmcnt plan, that permits the distribution, as now carried on, of lumber, coal and similar material. What Is aimed at, If anything, la to check the mere gambling in perishable foods, to head off the speculation that rests on manipulated markets. If this ran be con trolled, so that no harm comes to the consumers, the move against the tramp car will be beneficial In th* end. Whether the line can be closely and accurately drawn between the service that is needful and that which is harmful le the big job the freight men have taken on. Financier* of Paris are said to be fluttering around J. P. Morgan. If they had listened to him a few years ago, they might not now he in the hole as badly as they are. Among other* who will mis* Charles F. Murphy will he William Jennings Hryan. Balloon rare* are educative, and all that, but they do not draw crowds.
