MAJ. DALY, MARINE HERO, DIES Twice Awarded Congressional Medal of Honor for Foreign Service. Sergt. Maj. Daniel Daly, one of the two men in the Marine Corps to re- oeive the OCongressional Medal of Honor twice, died yesterday at his home in Glendale, Long Island, ac- cording to word received at Marine headquarters here. The only other Marine so honored was Maj. Gen. Smedley D. Butler, re- tired, former commandant. Daly, who died at 63 after a heart attack, will be buried Saturday in Cy~ press Hills, 'N. Y. He had enlisted in the Marine Corps early in 1899 and it was during the siege of the American Legation at Peking that he first earned the Medal of Honor. His second citation came as the re- sult of service in Haiti, where he was engaged, in hostilities with irregulars. He also served with distinction in D. C, France during the World War. The Distinguished Service Cross was awarded him for this outstanding duty. He left the service in Septem- ber, 1919, TAYLOR TAKES TRIP Denies Journey to Europe Is for Coronation.

' National Rivers and Harbors Congress, Representative William J. Driver of Arkansas, today pledged his efforts to work for the aims laid down by the organization, but indicated that the projects most likely to receive atten- tion from Congress probably would be emergency work on the Merrimac River in New England and the Ohio River Valley, on the basis of relief. Advocates of greater flood con- trol measures had hoped to increase direct flood con- trol sppropria- | tions from the pending $52,500,= 000 to $100,000,- 000, with 60 per cent to be ex- pended in the| e Club members also are preparing omnibus flood re- lief bill and 40| per cent in the| Mississippi Basin, the president- elect explained. | He was chosen at | yesterday's ses-| sion at the May flower Hotel. “The only obstacle in the way of | achievement of this,” Driver said, “is | the recently expressed attitude of the | President in the matter of economy. | ‘This is making a tremendous appeal to business interests of the Nation, and appears likely to interfere seriously | with the hopes and purposes of friends of waterway development and flood protection, “It now appears the administration will confine legislation within such limits that few additional authoriza- | tions will be made by Congress for necessary and usual expenditures and the adopted projects and river proj- | ects will evidently comprise the range of appropriation, with a narrow limit. | Reasonable Protection. | He indicated it would be necessary | to make a “fight to get from relief appropriations money to provide works necessary to reduce flood crests suffi- | ciently to afford a reasonable amount | of protection against the threat of m-l creasing destruction.” | Driver, as chairman of the Pro;ecu} Committee, reported to the hotel | gathering yesterday that after ex- amining 165 new projects the com- mittee was convinced that 15 projects | are sound, needful and sufficiently | advanced in status to warrant in-| dorsement, involving a total estimated | cost of $31,657,995.” He also reported | that 22 projects appear to be with- | out a sufficiently advanced status to | warrant present indorsement, but are | believed to be by the committee | ‘meritorious’ and entitled to further | eonsideration. The committee recom- mended that surveys be expedited on | 32 projects and that surveys be rec- | ommended for 52. It was recom-| mended that 10 projects be deferred. | ‘Two projects in the District—the Washington Harbor and Washington | Channel, north side—again were in- dorsed. Driver's report was adopted unan- tmously. The group went on record as strong- 1y in favor of “ample funds” to con- | struct flood-control projects already authorized by Congress. “There should be no stint where human life and human misery are in- volved,” the resolution stated. Long Range Policy. A long-range policy to preserve the public domain was recommended, through conservation of soil and wa- ter resources, reforestation and soil conservation. Underlying principles of the stream pollution bill were ap- proved. The report of the Resolutions | Committee was made by Senator | Overton of Louisiana, chairman. | The Interstate Committee on flood eontrol recommended approximate | uniform State flood-control legisla- | tion, liberalization by Congress of re- | quirements in local and State partici- pation, approach to flood control by | river systems, Federal encouragement | and State statutes to prevent future | encroachments on channels of con- | trolled streams and maintenance of | two primary principles enunciated by} the flood-control act of 1936—contin- | uation of the United States Army en- gineers as the responsible agent of Congress for flood control free from polities or pressure and maintenance of the principle of State and local perticipation. Other officers elected by the congress | for the year, in addition to President | Driver, were Frank R. Reid of Illinois, former president, to be chairman of the board; James H. Sinclair, North Dekota, vice chairman; Fred D. Beneke, Memphis, Tenn, secretary; Seymour Weiss, New Orleans, treas- urer, and Willlam H. Webb of this| city, executive vice president in charge of the Washington office. Directors elected included Driver, H. H. Buckman, Jacksonville, Fla.; Representative Nichols, Oklahoma; Herbert C. Legg, Los Angeles; Sinclair and Tom R. Hutton, Binghampton, N. Y. Rep. Driver. What Price Speed? Many who drive constantly on city streets think that by driving their cars & few miles per hour faster than others, they are saving a lot of time. As a matter of fact the time saved is often only a matter of seconds, while the injury and saccident is increased & hundredfold.
