"We want you to come to the Chicago convention and ask that question," said Of course, the necessity Mr. Rainey, la obvious, but we want you to tell the delegates how the situation Impresses you." Mr. Wu has been studying the whole question of river transportation In the United States from the time that George Washington wrote to Thomas Jefferson suggesting Inland canals, down to the reports on the deep waterway which have been made from time to time by such distinguished engineers as Lyman E- - Cooley, Is ham Randolph and John 'A, Ockerson, and will give his final answer to Mr. Rainey at the convention. It la believed that Mr. Wu will make a very interesting address and will say some things that will make Americana ashamed f themselves. The primary object of the Waterways congress is to Interest the government In a general plan for deepening the channels of the Mississippi, Missouri, Ohio and other rivers and the construction of canals which will give a direct water transportation' line from the Great Lakes to the Gulf of Mexico. Much haa already been accomplished hy the congress toward these projects and it is believed to be only a matter of a few years until a great chain of adequate waterways will link the Mississippi valley.
