RAILROADS - INADEQUATE Water Transportation Must Be Devel- oped In Order That the Freight of the Country May Be Handled Prop- erly and Promptly—Lakes to Guit Canal Declared to Bs an Impcrative Duty of the Government, Chicago, Oct. 1)—Business at the elosing session of the fourth amnual convention of the Lakes to the Gulf Desp Waterways association was transacted at a rapld rate. The old officers were re-clected with the ex- ception of D. R. Forgan of Chicago as & member of the board of governors. Mr. Forgan retired in favor of E. S. Conway, Chicago. New Orleans had no opposition for the next convention and it will be held in that city. The speakers of the day were Theodore P. Shonts of New York and John A. Ockerson of St. Louis. The following resolutions were adopted: “To promote the general welfare is recognized by the Constitution of the United States as one of the funda- mental principles of government. “The general welfare of the people of the United States can best be pro- moted by establishing the commerce of the country on a sound basis and by so enlarging it that agricultural and mineral resources may be devel- oped to the end that production and manufacturing may be encouraged. “Hasy and adequate transportation is the first essential for the develop- ment of the commerce of the United States; and the responsibility for this development rests upon the general government. Railroads Inadequate. “It has been demonstrated during the last ten years that when business conditions are normal the transporta- tion facilities afforded by the railways rre utterly inadequate; and it is stat- ed by the traffic managers of railways that the development of railway fa- cilities cannot keep pace with the in- creased demaads upon them. The leading railway authorities declare that water transportation must be de- veloped in order that the freight of the country may be handled properly and promptly. “Under the Constitution the regula- tion of commerce between the states devolves on the general government and neither states nor private capital can be permitted under the Constitu- tion to assume these duties. “The duty therefore devolves on the general government to give the coun- try adequate transportation facilities by developing the navigable water- weys. This duty should be recognized by congress at once and the water- ways should be made efficient freight carriers, otherwise the United States cannot maintain commercial equality with other nations which are paying adequate attention to their waterways. “The all important question of transportation fs a paramount issue. It it be found that the current rev- enues of the government are insuffi- ofent for vigorously carrying out on a broad plen the development of our wa- terways congress should procure funds for that purpose by providing a suffi- clent bond issue. Lakes to the Gulf Canal. “This convention declares that the opening of a deep channel way con- necting the Great Lakes with the Gulf of Mexico to be an imperative duty of the general government and that this work should be immediately begun and completed as speedily as possible. “Any plan for inland waterway de- velopment should comprise a main trunk line in the form of a strait con- 1eoting Lake Michigan with the Gulf { Mexico by the Illinois and Missis- ««ppl rivers. The improvement of the branches of this main line, such as the Upper Mississippi, with its tributaries, the Ohio with its tributaries, includ- ing the Tennessee and the Cumber- land, the Missouri, the Arkansas, the Red, the White, should proceed simul- taneously with the development of the main line. “The deep waterway is practically complete from Chicago to Joliet and the continuation from Joliet to St. Louis will cost only $31,000,000. The state of Illinois, assuming that the federal government will teke the re- sponsibility of completing the water- way to the gulf, is about to co-operate to the extent of $20,000,000. “A special board of survey was cre- ated by congress last year to report on the feasibility of a deep waterway route from 8t. Louls to the mouth of the Ohio. Delegates to this conven- tion demand that when that report is made congress shall at once provide funds sufficient to begin operations in a large and effective way.” Trolley Cars in Collision.
