Big Convention In December Aims To Improve Waterways
Washington reports John A. Fox of the National Rivers and Harbors congress calls for larger federal waterway funding. He cites Germany and France spending billions and argues the U S must widen investments to 6 billion for 40 000 miles of navigable waterways and save millions annually. The National Rivers and Harbors convention is planned for December in the capital. Community talks in Omaha Atchison and Kansas City precede. Also noted are Hall’s Catarrh Cure ads and water purity notes.
