. D GHEAP WATERWAY HOPE NEAR RESULT 9,000 Mile River-Canal Ronte to Be Opened Soon Sioux City, Ia., Sept. 23 (UP)— Dreams of cheap water transporta- tion for the corn belt, via barge lines on the Missouri river, connect- ing with the Great Lakes and the Gull of Mexico thréugh the Missis- sippi and Illinois rivers, to furnish an outlgt for grain, ores and other slow moving freight and an inroad for coal, machinery, lumber, etc., are ‘nearing realization and water- way boosters have their ears cocked for the whistle of steamboats. With the six foot charinel profect progressing between St. Louis and Kansas Clty, congress and President Hoover assured upper river points that the development would not stop there when, at the last session, the rivers and harbors bill, carry- ing a total of $15,000,000 to be ex- pended on the Missouri between Kansas City and Sioux City, was passed and signed by the chief ex- ecutive. Thisamount together with approximately $8,000,000 already appropriated or shifted from unex- pended war department funds, makes a total of more than $23,- 000,000 now alloted for work on the upper Missouri river project. Long Route Open Advocates of river improvement have estimated that, with comple- tion of the upper Missouri channel as far as Sioux City, more thap 9,- 000 miles of waterway on the Big Muddy Mississippi and Illinois rivers will be thrown open to transporta- tion. This, it is pointed out, will furnish an outlet for the corn belt and beyond into South Dakota and the Black Hills, linking this terri- tory directly with Chicago and the Great Lakes, Pittsburgh, the Twin Cities and the Gulf of Mexico. Government engineers have esti- mated that it will cost in the neigh- borhood of $54,000,000 to make the Missouri river navigable with a six foot channel from Kansas City to Sioux City. Present plans call for ultimate development for beyond Sioux City, reaching well through the Black Hills and to the head- waters of thes stream. Maj. Gordon R. Young, district engineer, has picked the probable cost of the development to Sioux City at $55,000,000, with $35,000,000 expended between Kansas City and Omaha and $20,000,000 between Omaha and Sioux City. With near- ly half of this amount now assur- ed, river.advocates are jubilant over the outlook for completion of the project within t¥e next five years. Preliminary work has been going on® throughout the summer in the vicinity of Sioux City. With an en- office established here last spring, in charge of Capt. S. E. Nortner, army engineer, surveys and depth work was started sev- eral months ago, and flags and stakes of the engineers dot the banks and sand bars for several miles each sid® of the city. Cap- tain Nortner stated some time ago that the prelimigary work practi- cally was completed and that he expected to call for bids on several thousand feet of dykes and retards before snow ¥lies. W Hampered Work on the lower stretches of the river has been hampered some- what this summeg by the unusually low stage of ‘water and the failure ot the annual “June rise,” which engineers counted on to cut chan- nels where retards had been placed. On the other hand, river bosters olnt to the fact that, respite the nusually low water stage, the river Ras proven itself dependable for navigation purposes. Detailed mea- surements prove, they declare, that the flow, even at this season’s ab- normally low stage, is ample to sup- port plans under way for commer- clal - navigation. Along improved stretches ,they say, where the chan- nel has been narrowed to 1,500 feet, the water is flowing at uniform speed. At some places, where piling and dykes have been con- structed, the water has been too low to construct the expected fills, but the feasibility of the system of river control has been demonstrated. Engineers have declareq that a tem of reservoirs on the upper |rcaches of the¢ river, controlling floods and insuring a steady flow of water adequate for a six foot channel, is the solution of the waterway problem. AMERIGANS EAT HORE DURING 1930 Survey Shows Increase of 150 Pounds_ Yearly Chicago, Sept. 23 (UP)—TH% aver- age American of 1930 will Coneume 150 pounts more food this year than his predecessor of 1900, according to the American Research foundation. | “More sugar, fruits, fats, and loils, and millc products are being eaten by the people of the United States,” says the foundation. “The per capita consumption of sugar is estimated at about 105 pdunds this year, compared with 61 poupds per capita in 1900. Fats, and offs will average about 44 pounds per capita this year, com- pared with 34 pounds a generation ago. “Milk products consumption has increased from 840 pounds to 1,040 and fresh fruits”from 169 to 192 pounds per capita. “Meat consumption has shown lit- tle variation, ranging from 142 to 145 pounds a year per person. “Figuring the increases with the decline®, the average per capita food consumption shows a gain of 150 pounds annually in the last 30 years. “An increasing $reference for en- ergy and heat producing foods is evident in the modern American dietary. Sugar largely supplies en- ergy, while fats are necessary in generating heat and power for the body. “Meat, milk, and cream, and dozens of other items on the daily menu have a high fat content. The exceptional value of fats is that in addition to supplying energy, aid digestion by enhancing the palata- bility of foods consumed in the average meal.” FOREIGN EXCHANGES New York, Sept. 23 (P—Prime mercantile paper 33-1-4 per cent.

TRADING ON CURB {Buying Interest Becomes More Active After Noon Hour ew York, Sept. 23 (A—A tech- nical recovery following the sharp decline yesterday turned the trend of curb stocks upward*today. While displaying a firn undertone from the start of the session, the list was sluggish during the early hours and price movement was irregular within narrow limits. Buying interest was more active as the session pass- ed the noon hour and more definite signs of a recovery from the closing final prices yesterday developed. The scale of trading was on a par with the best sessions of the year, The utility group was irreghlar, Electric Bond & Share, American & Foreign Power warrants and one or two others provided the leadership for the advance, but other issues that have ‘been depressed by the selling movement the past week, moved un- certainly. Petroleum shares were generally steady to firm. Cities Service was fairly well supported, holding above the previous close and the same was true of Houston, Vacuum, Standard of Indiana and Humble. Standard of Kentucky was a weak spot. Some of the industrials profited from the better tone of the market. l'ord of England and Ford of Canada, in the motor group, Mead Johnson, Safe- way Stores, in the industrial section and Natural Fuel Gas, and Lone Star Gas of the natural gas shares were conspicuous in the recovery. Amer- ican Cyanamid A, A. O. Smith and Starrett corporation lost ground. Diamond Match selling on a when issued basis, reached a new low. 2% ‘per cent. COTTON REACHE NEW YEAR'S LOW Trade Demand, Howeve#, Again Very Active, Report Shows New York, Sept. 23 (A—Cotton opened steady today at a decline of 1 to 6 points, the entire list sell- ing at new low records for the sea- son under renewed active Selling for southern accounts as well as by houses with foreign connections, Liverpool cables were lower than expected and the New York cotton exchange service issued a statement indicating that last season's Indian crop had possibly been underestimat- ed by 1,740,000 bales. The trade de- mand, however, was again very ac- in comparatively narrow limits. New December declined 7 points to 10:78 while March was down 6 points to 11.07. Liverpool cabled that the market there was influenced by hedging and local Bombay liquidation but added that there were moderate cloth sales to South America and Africa and that yarn stocks were decreasing. DYING MAN'S WISH 15 COMPLIED WITH \No Floral Tribntes at Funeral of Marion Tomaszewski His dying wish, to have no flow- ers at his funeral, was complied with today at the obsequies of Marion Tomaszewski, aged 63, charter member of both the Holy Cross and Sacred Heart parishes.

J., Sept. 23 (P— Bruce Barton, New York advertis- ing man and writer, urged before the American Bakers' association today a nationwide advertising campaign by the federal farm board to restore white bread to its place in the American diet. “We have 130,000,000 people in the United States,” said Mr. Barton, *and 130,000,000 too many bushefs of wheat. The government proved in the war that its influence was sufficient to cut down the consump- tion of wheat. Why should that in- flience not be exerted now to build up the consumption?” More Railroad Reports \ Show Further Decrease New York, Sept.” 23 (A—August reports of railway net operating in- come continue to show decreases, with few exceptions, from figures for the like month a year ago.

Wheat, Selling at Lowest Price In Years, Causes Stocks to Back Diring Session of Market Today Losses Recovered Easily Although® Weakne$s of Grains Causes Drive by Bears. New York, 2 2@ —Stocks backed and filled irregularly toda while wheat was selling at {he lowest prices in years, but the support Jlaced behind seasoned dividend issues, reputedly by impof- ancial, inte made the r faction cautious and facilitated The rallic Sept. Quotations at uneven & the opening were there was a small de lows the movement. However, the market recovered these losse: casily and made a cautious advanc which was later lost on a bear drive stimula the weakness of the arains and numerous other com- modities. Coppers and oils were li- quidated rather freely in this selling and new lows for the year in both groups were numerous However, & more active Tor the market leade erate gains in the early afternoon. American Can, American Telephone and American Water Works rose ints or more, Bethlehem Steel ectric, United Air- Chemical gained . Steel, Johns-Man- . National Biscait, Atchison and North American rallied a point or more. In the copper group Ana- conda, Kennecott, Andes, Calumet and Arizona and Calumet & Hecla made new lows, while among the oi standard of New York, Prairie Oi Ohio Oil and Warner Quinlan sagged to new minimums. 0 Dividend Omitted Omission of the $1 'dividend on Republic Steel common had been expected and the stock rallied on short covering after the action of the directors ‘had been announced. Pierce Arrow preferred was strong, moving up several points in re- sponse to the statement of the com- pany's president that the class “A" would be placed on a $2 annual basis as the result of improved bus- iness. With German Bonds rallying on the London and New York market professional bears were not dis- posed to make capital of the fo eign situations that were the subject of rumor and gossip yesterday. A fair inquiry for American stocks by European buyers was reported. Wealkness of the Copper shares was based on unfavorable dividend prospects. Although most of the large companies have already harply curtailed payments to stockholders, Several have cut more than once this year—further r ductions are generally expected. Somé leading producers have cut prices to 10 1-2 cents a pound for the remainder of the year and num- erous prominent consumers are un- derstood to have taken care of their requirements for the next two or three months, leaving the outlook for the industry rather gloomy. Routine business news offered lit- tle that could be called encouraging in speculative circles where pes- simism is so popular. The weekly bank statement reported a $3,000,- 000 drop in commercial loans, al- though there was a gain of $14,000,- 000 in this item in the New York federal reserve district. August in- come statements from the railroad: disclosed declines from the same month a year ago in about the pro- portions that have been prevailing.
