Shafer of North Dakota declared Thursday before the Great Lakes-St. Lawrence Tidewater association. Much progress, the governor said, thas been made by the United States and Canada, while waiting for the two governments to open negotia- tions for a treaty providing for the Joint construction of the St. Law- rence seaway. By means of the waterways proj- ect, he added, there will be restored the “economic balance in accordance with the laws of economic justice,” and both industry and agriculture will be revived in “that vast empire dying between the Allegheny and Rocky Mountain ranges.” Deal Nears Consummation “Recent news dispatches emanat- ing from Washirigton,” the governor mation that a treaty between the United States and Canada, providing for the construction of the Great Lakes-St. Lawrence seaway, is about to be consummated. “At last, the people of these two great nations stand at the threshold of an international achievement in waterway development. It will bring the Atlantic’ ocean, as an avenue of commerce, 1,700 miles into the heart of the North American continent, transform the Great Lakes into an {Inland ocean, remake many Ameri- ban and Canadian cities from lake- port cities into seaport cities, and liberate 20 American states and sev- eral Canadian provinces from those burdens of distant transportation which have long stood as an unsur- mountable barrier to the economic progress of this great inland empire. Delayed Too Long “The advent of the St. Lawrence teaway has been too long delayed. Ever since the completion of the Pah- hma canal, a generation ago, the in- terior economic development of Amer- ica has been sadly out of balance.
