Weaver Seeks
River Develop
ment Funds
At National Capital to Confer with
His Old Classmate, Secre
tary of War Bern.
Washington, May 1. Arthur J.
Weaver, former governor of Nebras
ka, is expected to confer soon with
Secretary of War Dern regarding de
velopment of the Missouri river for
navigation north of Kansas City.
While the conference is expected
to confer on navigation projects, the
former Nebraska governor and the
former Utah governor may devote
some discussion to "old times" at the
University of Nebraska, where Dern
and Weaver were fraternity brothers.
Representative Edward It. Burke
of Omaha will accompany Weaver on
his visit to Secretary Dern.
Last week Weaver conferred with
Secretary of the Interior Icke3, but
declined to comment until "some
thing deSnite has been determined."
New Funds Needed.
As president of the Missouri River
Navigation association, Weaver is en
deavoring to insure Inclusion of Mis
souri river development "projects in
the administration's pending five bil
lion dollar public works program.
It is understood at present that
the president would be given au
thority to select projects under the
public work3 program, and Weaver
is anxious to have definite provision
for the inland waterway projects ap
proved by engineers for the Missouri
river.
Fund3 are needed to deepen the
channel of the Missouri from Kansas
City north to Yankton, S. D., and to
construct a reservoir at Fort Peck,
Mont., where flood waters would be
impounded to regulate the flow of
water through the Missouri.
Says Midwest "Isolated."
Explaining the necessity for de
velopment of navigation on the Mis
souri river. Representative Burke
has pointed out that cheap trans
portation through the Panama canal
has virtually isolated midwest states.
Grain can be shipped from Balti
more to the west coast, for" example,
at a lower rate than it would be
shipped there from Omaha. "
Leaders in1 the Missouri' river pro
ject have been concerned over the
prospect that construction ' work on
inland waterways may be discon
tinued. Part of the unexpended pub
lic works funds provided by the last
congress have been used by the ad
ministration to set up conservation
camps for the unemployed, but they
believed that sum will be paid back
to public works in the new appro
priation measure. World-Herald.

The city Jail had one of the largest
registrations of several weeks last

members of the band of wandering
youth, estimated at some 250,000
that, are wandelrng over the nation,
homeless and helpless. With the re
lease of the group from the shelter
of the Jail they were wandering over
the main part of the city seeking food
of some kind.

their lovely flowers and their many
kindly acts, to the Woman's Relief
Corps for their beautiful flag and to
