Kennedy has been on the edge of several ambitious projects on the Missouri as a result of his flood investigations. He has suggested dams to retain the spring waters and utilize them later in the reason when dry periods succeed the spring rains or in water and sewerage probiem solutions, and he has hinted at navigable possibilities. Thus North Dakota has come to regard the river as a great a: jin a future when the nation shall again turn to waterw as a moans of transportation, as they were in the days when Bis- marck was laid out and established, and At tim there was every indication to expect another metrop: of the northwest to develop here ou: of river navigation. This dream the coming of the railroads dispelled. ‘That the nation is turniny to waterway development is evident in a more concrete form than the plans for the Mississippi indicate. The Hoover address was times t to the completion of a nine-foot channel in the Ohio! river out of Pitisburgh, deepened to that depth for the operation of barges under gasoline power. Tie Missis- sippi is to be put on a similar basis into the Twin Citie: and south to the guif. It already has received some at- tention for barge traffic. The Hoover plan is to exiend branch waterways out from the main Missiasippi trunk. Again the Missouri's future looms as a busy bearer of traffic and as an element of farm relief to the Northwest farmers. In five years the Mississippi trunk is to be completed. The Ohio branch eastward already is finished. 1 ***-Anéther man of vision cees a vast future for the SSnation's waterways. Andrew W. Mellon, secretary of the treasury, at a dinner in Pittsburgh celebrating the com- pletion of the nine-foot channel of the Ohio, predicted & growing importance in the development and uses of inland water transportation. “Our waterways must be developed in anticipation of the time when traffic in this country will be so heavy that no railway system, however extensive and well n- "There is a very definite field for water transportation ere in slow moving and bulky freight such as ore, coal and grain,” Mr. Mellon said. After giving a word of advice to the railroad execu- tives who have never been known as boosters for inland waterways, the secretary of the treasury continued: “It will be fortunate in the end for the railroads no Jess than for the public if a great inland water traffic an be steadily built up on a sound and profitab!> b: - ' Fall Convicted Albert B. Fall, in his conviction on the charge of ribery, has reaped a penalty even before a sentence has been on him. He stands formally and legally before the nation—as a vast volume of public branded him—a criminal who de- ® public trust and betrayed vital intcrests of the United States for private gain. For the verdict of the Washington jury which sat in his trial is that the $100,000 which he accepted from Doheny was an inextricable influence in the to that oil promoter the navy’s highly valuable Petroleum reserves in the Elk Hills of California. The verdict writes him into the category of the Arnolds and Burrs of the nation’s history as a sordid trafficker against such a vital concern of the republic as its common defense. In time of war it would have stigmatized him a5 a traitor, but in time of peace the public inertia is not capable of being stirred to such. an intensity of Sesentment and indignation. Whatever he and his counsel may say and possibly think about it, he has got off comparatively easy, with For Fall is of the old West, when the government had {Po concern over the natural wealth of what then was he lived in conformity with the casy- permitted exploitation of national re- idea that turpitude was involved. it #80 easy for him a3 secretary of to friend and benefac- navy was depond- in the event of a war punetilious and le thet type, to expose arck Tribune k ‘Tribune Company, Bis- | Marck, N.

So he slipped the bar back into gear and started, as we are all so fre- quently tempted to do. And then there happened the thing that happens only occasionally, but is fearfully disastrous when it does happen. The motor stalled with the car on the rails. There was no time for the porliaae to stop. The driver and his wife were both killed, The purpose of stops at grade crossings is to permit the driver to determine whether a train is approachin; The supposition is that, if he does discern an oncoming train, he will let it pass before attempting to cross.

In most powders this action begins to take place as soon as the powder is moistened. For this rea- son any liquid added is generally added toward the last of the mixing Process. It is for this reason that the well known warning, “Never place a ‘wet spoon in this powder,” has been printed upon millions of cans. All powders carry a starch filler which is necessary in order to absorb atmospheric moisture. Cornstarch is {used most commonly. Without this ad- dition of the starch filler it would be Possible to use only newly manufac- {tured baking powder. This is prac- tically impossible from a commercial and distributing standpoint.

In my opinion, the use of a reasonable amount of baking powder of any make is not injurious to any great extent. So many palat- able and nutritious foods can be pre- pared with the use of small amoun‘s of baking powder that it keeps our diet far more interesting and in this way we use good foods which we otherwise might avoid. The public is fairly well protected by the pure food laws against the manufacturers who, for commercial reasons alone, would use injurious in- Gredients in making baking powder. ‘Those who are following the advicc in these articles know that I recom- mend the use of wholewheat flour in making bread, biscuit, muffins, waf- fles, pancakes, etc. It is very difficult to make any of these articles of fvod without using a small amount of bak- ing powder to create a lightness which comes from the generation of the car- bon dioxide gas.
