B—12 FEDERAL WATERWAY FINANCING FAVORED Mississippi‘ Valley Group Unanimously Approves U. S. Bond Issue. By the Associated Press. ST. LOUIS, November 24.—The ‘Mississippi Valley Association, the larg- est waterway organization in the United States, today stood committed to a Federal bond issue to complete the un- finished inland waterway system of the United States at the earliest possible moment. Departing from its former, policy of advocating increased * appfopriations from Congress, the waterway enthus- {asts late yesterday decided on a rec- ommendation of more vigorous prose- cution of the waterway construction program to benefit the unemployed and inaugurate what they believe will be tmmeme freight savings for the coun- ry. Carried in Stormy Session. . While the association unanimously voted to urge Congress to float a Fed- eral bond issue, the action came only after a stormy session on the floor, in which opposition to the bond issue proposal was led by delegates from the Missouri River sector of the waterway system. The opposing delegates, led by Mark Woods, Lincoln, Nebr., contractor; for- mer Gov. Arthur J. Weaver of Ne- braska and Rufus Woods, chairman of the Waterways Committee of the Maha Chamber of Commerce, argued Con- gress would appropriate sufficient funds to insure speedy completion of the waterways and asked the association not to “aggravate” the administration with demands for a large increase in the country’s indebtedness. $400,000,000 Estimated Cost. ‘While no specific amount was asked by the association for the bond issue, its proponents estimated the proposed issue would necessarily be from $400,- 000,000 to $500,000,000 to complete the authorized projects. Col. Robert Isham Randolph, presi- dent of the Chicago Association of Commerce and chairman of Chicago's “Secret Six,” an anti-crime organiza- tion, was slated to be elected late today as president of the Mississippi Valley Association, to succeed W, R. Dawes of Chicago, who resigned aer nolding the office for two years. e | FIRST “YUM-YUM” DIES Leonora Braham Created Role in Opening of “The Mikado.” LONDON, November 24 (#).—Leo- nora Braham, creator of the role of Yum-Yum in “The Mikado,” and known the world over to stage follow- ers of the past generation, died here yesterday.
