*FAVORWR.DAWES [ Brother of Vice President i. May Head Mississippi % Valley Association. By the Assoclated Press. ST. LOUIS, November 26.—Willlam R. Dawes, Chicago financler and brother of Charles G. Dawes, Vice Pres- ident of the United States, was spon- sored by many delegates as a candidate for presidency of the Mississippi Val- ley Association, opening its tenth an- nual convention here today. It appeared be would be slated by ths nominating committee for the elec- tion tomorrow afternoon. Kansas City delegates, who perviously had supported " Yespectively J. C. Nichols, vice presi- dent of the Missouri River Navigation Association, and former Representative Cleveland A. Newton of St. Louis, now general counsel of the association, be- gan to align themselves with the Dawes faction when it was learned that the two men favored the Chicago banker. President to Retire. | A president will be elected to sue- | |f ceed James E. Smith, the retiring Ppresident, who has been a leading in waterways development for 20 years. Speakers programmed for the open- | | ing sessions today mentioned the name of President-elect Herbert Hoover in connection with their plans for the fu- | |f ture. Mr. Hoover, they said, had fre- quently urged the completion of water- ‘Wway projects, and they said he would one of the moving forces in the plans of the association for the future. Nichols, one of the speakers on the Program, declared President-elect Hoo- ver’s trip to South America has an im- Potant relation to the waterways of the Mississippi Valley, which, he said, “af- ford a direct route from some 26 States w“g‘ue (Eult: m;;l 1South America.” r trade Increasing so rapidl. with the Gulf and South Igtmenca,“" h{ maid, “that Mr. Hoover. with his keen and constructive mind, will be quick 1o Brasp the great importance of this trade and of the necessity of the ear- Mest possible completion of the greatest waterway system available to any nation in the world. It is by nature Providentially placed in the direct line ©f this trade movement.” Declared “White Hope.” ‘The President-elect was character- Ized as the “white hope of the inland waterways of the Nation” by Repre- sentative W. E. Hull of Peoria, another speaker on the program. The task of the association, he said, is to work with the next Congress. “But we must not insist,” he con- tinued, “on authorizations that may embarrass our friend—the next Presi- dlent of the United States. “We, the advocates of the inland :::;:1zsbmusc wo‘;k o:lth the present ..t Congress tain appropria- ton the pro- s large enough to complete ects contemplated by the Govemglr:nt engineers.” corporations adopt a licy of “co- ?pleution‘m.s‘bea:i of Opp):).;fl.lzn" to ::- velopment of river traffic. Saunde: & member of the advisory hoard of ':-é Inland Waterways on, said many railroad representatites Tecog- nize “a certain economy in water trans- Pportation, though few, if any_ realize its possibilities. They belleve it an seec:‘?e%my v:"ltl:hndvrnntsge to the country and therefore to their corporations.” o Points to Waterway Development. Secretary of War Dwight F. Davis said more progress has been made in the development of our inland water~ days during the last four years than in any similar period in our entire his- | | tory as a nation, and 1928 particularly 1 will long stand out as red-letter year in this progress. The Secretary of War, a speaker on the morning program, said this development has not been | . confined to the physical work of im- prcvex:mnt of our channels, but has the passage of the Denison act and !} the instigation of a survey now under way for the adoption of a co-ordinated plan of development for navigation, ir- rigation, reclamation, power and flood | |f control. Secretary Davis stated that the flood ccontrol plan, which was adopted at the last session of Congress, is being prose- cuted with the utmost vigor, and it is expected that the entire appropriation of $24,000,000, made available last May, will have been expended by the end of the present fiscal year. It is the intention of the administration, he said, to urge upon Congress the provision of adequate appropriations for the prose- cution of this work and iis early com- pletion. When it is completed, he added, the residents of the valley will have & greater security against floods than they have ever before enjoyed. Large Appropriation Needed. Appropriation by Congress of at least $35,000,000 for flood control improve- ment during the next fiscal year was declared necessary by former Repre- sentative. Newton. Newton urged that members of the association exert them- selves to insure standardized channels throughout the Mississippi Valley sys- tem. He declared it essential that Con- gress revise the project on the upper Mississippi from St. Louis to Minne- apolis providing for a nine-foot chan- nel, and the revision of the project of Missouri from St. Louis to Kansas City, then to Sioux City, in order to pro- vide a nine-foot channel.
