A—10 FLORIDIANS SPLIT ON CANAL MERITS Underground Water Suppiy Contamination Feared as Result. By the Associated Press. JACKSONVILLE, Fla.—Floridians are sharply divided over the merits of a proposed $143,000,000 ship canal to split the peninsula. Fearing possible contamination of their vital underground water supply from an influx of salt water through & sea-level waterway, many Southern Florida citrus growers and truck farm- ers oppose efforts to have the project constructed under the work-relief jprogram. Chief support of the project comes from the Northern part of the State, where residents see great economic benefits. The idea of an artificial waterway to save vessels the journey around the Florida Keys was first conceived by Philip II of Spain in the sixteenth century. To protect his treasure-laden ships from the pirate-infested, treach- erous keys, Philip had engineers study the feasibility of a canal through pro- | tected Spanish territory. The canal | never materialized. Jackson Considered Canal. Through the years, however, the Idea has bobbed up again and again. President Andrew Jackson, himself a former Floridian, considered it, and engineers made a preliminary survey. But Jackson left the White House be- | fore a complete study was reported. In the present century the Florida delegation pushed through Congress | an appropriation for a canal survey. | United States Army Engineers, after | seeing possible routes, reported the With the public works era present ing & good chance to put thousands to work on the waterwhy. the P. W. A. sent engineers to investigate. They claimed $119,000,000 would be the cost of the canal. President Roosevelt, reported favor- eble to the proposition, named an in- dependent Board of Review to recon- cile the divergent cost estimates. Re- Jecting plans for a lock canal, the board figures a sea-level route could be dug for approximately $143,000.000. But the P. W. A. decided the canal | would not be self-liquidating. Jobs for 41,000 Seen. Passage of the $4.000,000.000 works- relief bill saw another drive started, bolstered by a claim it would give di- | rect or indirect employment to 41,000 persons. Herman Gunter, State geologist, said an exhaustive survey would be made before the waterway was at- tempted. He claimed favorable geo- | logical reports were based on a lock canal, not the sea-level route. The proposed canal would stretch 195 miles from deep water in the Guif to deep water in the Atlantic. Proponents say the canal, saving several days in the trip around the peninsula, would affect the sommerce of 37 States. SUICIDES ARE BLAMED ON POST COMMANDER | Investigation Ordered Into Con- ditions Reported From Fort Clayton, Balboa. By the Associated Press, COLON, Panama, July 13.—Gen. Harold B. Fiske, commandant of the Panama Canal department, was or- dered yesterday by the inspector gen- | eral to investigate charges made by Nelson Rounsevell, publisher of the| Bilingual Panama-American, against | Col. J. V. Heidt, commanding officer | at Fort Clayton, Balboa. Rounsevell charges that Heidt has by “cruel and relentless driving of his men by day and indifference to their na smoking by night earned | ‘suicide | for his command the title post.” There have been four suicides at Fort Clayton in the last six weeks, the charge related. Marajuana smoking is not a crime in the Canal Zone. SERMON IS SELECTED Rev. Robert M. Skinner to Preach on “Things That Remain.” Rev. Robert M.

Mr. Gresham departed shortly, ex- pressing fear of sunburn. “Ina,” began Paul. “Mr. Gresham has a cousin with Wayne King's Orchestra,” interposed the girl, as though unaware that he ! had been speaking. She looked after the departing young man, musingly. Paul lapsed into a sullen silence after one concluding remark. “Damn Mr. Gresham and his cousin!” he growled. Ina glanced at him, her eyebrows lifted, but did not reply. She lay back on the sand and gave him an excellent view of perfect shoulders, unhampered by the low- cut back of her suit. Paul sat and glowered indiscriminately at every passerby. They bought sandwiches on the way in, and dined at the apartment upon them and a few bottles of beer. Bud and Sue were in holiday spirits and clowned continuously, even win- ning a desultory laugh occasionally from the now thoroughly miserable Paul. Ina, although the perfect host- ess, was preoccupied and, like her husband, had little to say. If the other two wondered, they gave no sign. The two girls decided to go to the ‘dlnce that evening, and Sue soon Tan upstairs to get ready. Bud ac- companied her, and Paul and Ina were left momentarily alone. Ina stood by a window and stared into the darkening court below. Paul watched her a moment uncertainly, then fol- lowed and slipped his arms around her from behind. She started and he felt her body grow taut. She twisted in his grasp, her hands push- ing against his chest, striving to break free. “I'm sorry, Honey,” he muttered, “That ington Male Chorus in a service of | his voice. shaken, penitent. sacred song. — Famed Veterinarian Dies. ‘MADISON, Wis., July 13 (#).—Alex Alexander, 75, professor emeritus of the University of Wisconsin and dis- tinguished veterinarian, died at his ‘home yesterday after a long illness.

I—I wanted you so, and— and T wasn't sure if you wanted me.” “I didn’t mean what I said,” he went on, contritely. “Can you forgive me for that? I was crazy mad.” Her head, buried against his shoul- der, moved affirmatively. ‘“Yes,” she breathed. “I think I could even if it was the truth. There just won't be any one but you, Darling; ever!” He raised her face and kissed her, almost reverently. “You know it wasn't the truth,” he said. “You know 1 asked you because I—loved you, don’t you?” She looked into his eyes, the light in her own reflecting the incalculable depths of her feeling. *“Yes,” she whispered. ‘When, a few minutes later, Paul was shaving in the bath room, Ina put her head in the door. “Paul,” she said, the dimple deep in her cheek, “‘can we try out the coupe tonight, after the dance?” He dropped his razor and caught her hand. “Honey!” he exulted. *“Do you mean it “Silly!

Doesn’t he have the nicest profile?” She received no answer. They stared at each other and shook their heads compassionately, words refusing them. Paul returned in about 45 minutes. He came in quietly, sailed his hat across the room and winked expan- sively at the expectant Ina. He seemed well satisfied. “Bud was scared stiff,” he chuckled, reminiscently. “It's a peachy car,” said Ina. glad we decided to get it.” He shook his head. “I didn't, Honey,” he said. She gasped and stared at him wide- eyed, an expression almost of con- sternation on her face. “You didn't buy it?” He smiled at her and again shook his head. “But, Paul—why not?” He waved a hand. “Oh, T—- “Did he want more than $700?" “No. He—" “Did he want cash, or——2" “No, everything was all right, Honey.
