Divert Travel Money to Build Imperial US Power

The Salt Lake City Commercial Club issues a circular arguing Americans spend billions abroad yearly on travel. If kept at home for a decade it could finance vast projects from coast to coast including highways from New York to San Francisco and from the Great Lakes to the Gulf, a Panama canal, and a treasury surplus. Redirecting a portion to Trans Mississippian trade could spur regional growth and benefit the nation, since home expenditures circulate back to American money centers.

Senator Dryden’s pay raised in odd canal debate

Among other senators who were surprised that Mr Shonis kept his railway job while bousing the canal was Senator Dryden whose salary as president of an unnamed organization is stated as thirteen times larger than his senate pay. The Commoner notes such anomalies loom over governance. Eighty one indictments have been returned by the Mooroe County grand jury, seventy four of them against druggists for liquor law violations.
