The report detlares that “it is incon- eeivable that the United States should un- dertake a huge investment in a ‘foreign country (Canada) where our interest either in transportation or in waterpower would be only 15 ‘per cent.” It points ont that the project would place the government in direct competition with our railroads and power industries, with great detriment to their thousands of American employees, at the same time benefiting Canadian interests to the detri- ment of. the United States. The report was. prepared joint); by the committees on internal trade and improve- ments, and on-harbors and shipping. While the precise terms of the recent treaty with Canada on this matter and the economic results of carrying out the plan are not clear to the average layman, it has seemed to us that to engage in an enter- prise of such cost and of such uncertain benefits to the United States would be of doubtful expediency, to.say the least: At any rate, the wholesubject should be very thoroughly considered from every angle before we spend approximately half a billion dollars wrung from already heavily .burdened American taxpayers in furtherance of this questionable scheme.
