Recreation Board Starts Its Work in the Omaha Schools| Superintendent English of the recrea- tion board is starting his work of extend- ing the operation of his department to the six schools approved by the Board of Education Monday evening. “I regret the board did not deem it wise to grant the use of the Central High school auditorium and South High gym- | nasium for use on Sunday afternoons, as | I feel confident the programs we would have offered would prove popular and meet with general approval,” stated Mr. English.

Much of the traffic moving down stream is the surplus agricultural products of the states west of the river. These products move in their natural state, as bulk wheat for export, or in a manufactured state, as flour and feed. | The increase of tonnage on incoming freight has been of high grade merchan- dise such as dry goods, planos and shoes, “There is not an inland waterway in the United Btates today showing as large & percentage of traffic in high grade merchandise as the Missourl river be- tween Kansas City and St. Louls. The stream is in the direct line of east and west traffic and necessarily influences rates on all of the country to the west and south of it. 'We shall show further that the growth of traffic in this terri- tory s rapidly exceeding the rall facili- ties, and the river is needed as an addi- tional and highly expansive means of communication. Shortage of Cars. “A great shortage of cars is occurring this fall on all the western railroads. an additional line of rallroad from Kansas City to St. Louls would cost almost as much as the §20,000,000 necessary to im- prove the river and would not furnish equal facilities. We expect to show, in addition, that the sudden lowering of rates by the opening of the Panama canal will force manufacturers and job- bers to the Atlantic seaboard if they are competing for any forelgn or Pacifie coast trade. It will be a relative disad- vantage to the manufacturers in the Mississippi valley, between the Alleghen- fes and the Rockies, unless a general sys- tem of water transportation through the gulf ports can be connécted with the Panama canal. “To abandon the improvement of the inland waterways at this time is to kill the growth in the Mississippl valley.'
