WATERWAY ACCORD HOPED FOR BY U.S. Canada’s Consent to St. Lawrence Project Would Give Aid to Jobless. By the Associated Press. State Department officials are hope- ful of a definite decision this month on the St. Lawrence waterway, long s subject of negotiations between the United States and Canada. Active agitation for an open road for ships from the Great Lakes to the | Atlantic has continued for more than a generation and the general belief in the Capital is that the Washington and Ottawa governments will shortly | reach & conclusive agreement on me problem. Prime Minister Bennett of Canads, | in reply to a formal inquiry by the United States some time ago as whether Canada was prepared to pm- ceed with the negotiations on the proj- | cct, set November as the time when | he would be able to give the matter his attention. The meeting in London of the British Imperial Conference and | the aftermath of the Canadian elec- tions, which swept him into office, pre- vented an immediate consideration of the question by the prime minister. Would Aid Jobless. Deeply interested in the project as & prospective scheme for the relief of | unemployment, in both the United| States and Canada, President .Hoover is devoting considerable attention to| the possibility of immediate resumption | of negotiations. The next step for the | President, in the event the Canadian | government agrees to a joint commis- sion to settle the two important ques- tions remaining open on the project, is the designation of the American members of the commission. ‘The appointment awaits only Canada’s approval of this method of arafting & treaty between the two countries to embody the terms under which construction could be begun and the project made a reality. Methods of financing and a technical question | on dam construction are the two main points to be settied. The belief is that the American Government would better prefer a commission of three or five members from each country. Personnel for U. S. The American section probably would tnclude some high ranking Army engineer, possibly Maj. Gen. Lytle Brown, chief of engineers, or one of his immediate subordinates.

He served as chairman of the St. Lawrence Commission of the United States, appointed by former | President Coolidge to push the Pproj-| ect. The attitude of the Clfief Execu- | | tive now is that to launch the under- | taking would furnish large unemploy- | ment relief and bring general economic benefit. | The cost of the enterprise has been | estimated at some $275,000,000, includ- | ing installation of equipment to pro- | vide incidenta] electrical energy rated | at 1,500,000 horsepower.
