PROJECT.
FOR THE BENEFIT OF ALL
President Promises the Support of
the Administration, But Will Not

Sherman, Cannon and Dickinson
Pledge Aid.
New Orleans, Nov. 1. Ringing de
mands for "14 feet through the val
ley" and elaborate argument in sup
port of the program for the creation
of a deep waterway from the lakes to
the gulf have marked the great con
vention of the Deep Waterway asso
ciation that opened here Saturday.
President Taft. Vice-President Sher
man, Speaker Cannon, governors of
the Mississippi valley states, innumer
able senators and representatives and
a mighty throng of private citizens
who believe in the big river project
are here and all urge that it be un
dertaken and carried to a speedy con
clusion. President Taft Promises Support.
President Taft, who arrived in New
Orleans escorted by a great flotilla,
after an illuminating trip down the
Mississippi river from St. Louis, land

der about eight o'clock Saturday
morning, and was driven to his ho
tel through streets that were cano
pied with magnolia barnehes, palmet-
toes and southern moss, and every
where the mottoes "Fourteen Feet
Through the Valley" and "River Rate
Regulation Is Rate Regulation." At
the Athenaeum in the afternoon the
president aroused a storm of cheers
by promising that if the 14-feet project
proved feasible and advisable, the
present administration would favor
the issuance of government bonds to
defray the cost.
Not for a "Pork Barrel."
At the same time Mr. Taft made It
plain that he would not stand for any
plan to make a "pork barrel" of the
project. He said he opposed any
such general bond issue of $500,000,
000 or 11,000,000,000 for waterways
improvement, the money to be cut
up and parceled out to different sec
tions, lie declared that the improve-

ment of waterways had been carried
forward in a haphazard fashion in
the past, and that a new method
should be adopted.
"I believe in the deep waterway,"
said the president. "I am for it, and
I shall use all the power that I pos
sess in doing what may be accom
plished to give you citizens of this
great valley what you so earnestly de
sire. It is all a part of a still great

"The projects for irrigation and for
the Improvement of waterways in the
future are not to be for the purpose
of distributing 'pork' tc every part of
the country. Every measure is to be
adopted on the ground thnt it will be
useful to the whole country. They
are not to be adopted for sending
certain congressmen back to Wash
ington or for making certain parts of
the country profitable during the ex
penditure of the money.
"We should take up every compre
hensive project on its merits and de

the project is to be carried out has so
far developed as to Justify the enor

Sherman, Too, Is for it.
Vice-President James S. Sherman
has brought to the people of the mid

promising enthusiastic support of the
waterway program. "We people of
the east depend on your people of the
west," said ho. "When we help you,
we help ourselves, so there is every
reason why we should do all in our
power for you, as soon as we realize
what you want and why you want it."
Speaker Cannon and Secretary of
War Dickinson aro no less outspoken
in their assurances of support, and
many senators and representatives,
among them Senator Lorlmer of Illi
nois, the father of the deep waterway
movement, this afternoon made ad
dresses full of hopeful enthusiasm.

William K. Kavanaugh of Missouri,
president of the association, called the

2. The entire route of the lakes-to-the-gulf
deep waterway from Joliet to
New Orleans, through the Des Plalues
river, the Illinois river and the Mis
sissippi river, has been surveyed un
der direction of congress by United
States engineers, who have officially
reported to congress that the building
of the deep waterway is feasible.
3. Tho people of the state of Illi
nois have adopted a constitutional
amendment providing for a bond is
sue of $20,000,000, the money to be
spent in constructing the deep water
way southward from Joliet.
4. A bill introduced by United States
Represpntatlve Richard Bartholdt of
Missouri is now pending in congress,

In the afternoon, following the ad

department, made an address on the
conservation of the nation's natural
resources.

The Best Food for Workers.
The best food for those who work
with hand or brain is never high
priced.
The best example of this Is found in
Quaker Oats. It stands at the top
among foods that supply nourishment
and vigor, without taxing the diges
tion, and yet it is the least expensive
food one can eat.
This great food value and low cost
make it an ideal food for families who
want to get tho greatest good from
what they eat.
Laborers, factory or farm hands, fed
plentifully on Quaker Oats will work
better and with less fatigue than if
fed on almost any other kind of food.
All of these facts were proved and
very interesting information about
human foods were gathered by Pro
fessor Fisher of Yalo University in
1908. In addition to the regular pack
age Quaker Oats is packed in large
sized family packages either with or
without china dishes. 8
