The expenditure of the million doliar appropriation for the development of New London harbor was the subject of. a talk by 1. Valentine Chappell of New London before a largely atiended meet- 1 of the Norwich Board of Trade held at the Buckingham Memorial on Monday evening. There were also brief remarks by ex-Congressman Ed- win W. Higgins. The business meeting was short. Asks for Later Trolley Cars. The minutes of the previous meeting were read by Secretary Henry W. Tib- Dbits, and two new members, Dr. Hugh B. Camgbe!!. superintendent of the state tuberculosis sanatorium, and C. James Isbister, were voted in. Frank J. King suggested that the transporta- tion committee apply to Supt. Samuel Anderson of the Shore Line road for later cars on the New London line, and also on the Central Village line. He favored a car at 11.15 from both New london and Norwich, a 10.45 car to Central Village Wednesday nights and cars at 10.45 and 11.45 on Safiur- day nights. He especially_emphasized | the need on the Central Village line, where the last car at night leaves here at 9.45. It was an impossibility to| care for the crowds on this car, he said. Another car later he belleved | would relieve congestion. The matter was referred to the transportation committee with instructions to take steps towards securing the extra cars suggested by Mr. King. Likely to Have Better Street Signs. Arthur L. Peale reported on steps taken towards securing street signs | about the city. He showed a sampley enameled sign which he said could be | secured for $30 a hundred. The few | that are about the city, he said, are | dilapidated, and bright, effective signs | glve a city an air of progress. Mr, Peale stated that according to Mayor | Murphy the matter was already in the | han of the proper committee of the | municipal government and that he ex- pected that the signs would be se- cured. F. J. King Reports on Convention. Delegate Frank J. King was called upon for a report on the rivers and | harbors convention at Washington, at | which, he stated, there were 2,000 del- ecgates. Mr. King said that he had no- ticed that there was no organized ef- fort on the part of the Connecticut | delegates and that he had finally called them together, with the result of the organization of the Connecticut Deep Waterways association. He said’ that Mayor Murphy had strongly presented Connecticut's claim for larger appro- priations for the benefit of her water- ways. The general feeling of the meeting was strongly in favor of state and municipal oWned terminals and against any steamship or railroad com- pany control of waterway routes of transportation. Mr. King’s report was an excellent one and he was applauded On Sale of Steamship Lines. Elmer C. Jewitt brought to the at- tention of the meeting the fact that the New Haven road would be forced to dispose of its steamship holdings | anad also that boards of trade in many sections had passed resolutions re- questing that the road be allowed continue its present steamship line. The change, said Mr. Jewett, means an all rail route to New York, longer timo | in transportation and greater conges- tion at New York, where the conges tion is already great. He believed, he | said, that the Board of Trade should | pass a resolution opposing the divorc- ing of these lines. Resolution Presented. He presented the following resolu- tion, which was referred to the trans- portation committee: Resolved, That the Norwich Board of Trade deprecates the application of the law relative to railroads owning vessels sailing in the coastwise trade | insofar as it applies to boat lines that have for years been an integral part of rail lines and will in no wise be connected with trafic through the Panama canal. We believe entirely unnecessary the divorcing of lines like the New York, | New Haven and Hartford railroad, | which is at present operating in this coastwlse trade, many of its lines hav- ing been in use prior to their having rall connection with New York, and we belleve further that such a separa tion will work to the serious disad- vantage of the shippers in general and the small one in particular, through in- creased rates due to the separate own rship requiring two or more charges for each consignment, with much longer time in transit, will surely re- | sult. It is further resolved by this asso- ciation that a copy of this resolution be arded to the interstate com- merce commission, also the attorney iSmethhsmfldSthommmonGavewofM Members Clear Idea of the New London Improve: e : Fruuk'J.'King Reports on Waterways Convention— Move For Later Trolley Cars Taken, | four years ago when the governor ap- | the greatest manufacturing state | Springfield. i needed to perfect the New London d States and our and sgenators in con- earnest request that they do all in their power to preve.t such a separation and that our secre- tary be instructed to forward such copies to those named. Ex-Congressman Higgins. Ex-Congressman Edwin W. Higgins ‘was called upon by President James C. Macpherson, and he lm of the work of the rivers and harl commission. The best work ever accomplished by this commission, according to Mr. Higgins, was the dissipating of the no- tion that “pork barrel” methods were used in the rivers and harbors appro- priations and that the money spent did no real good. He said that millions | had been sunk in the Mississippi with little good resuit, but that orn the whole no money appropriated congress was so honestly spent as the amount allotted to the betterms of the wa- terways of the nation. ‘here is now an annual appropriation of 50 millions for this work. Mr. Higgins concluded by explaining the various s of the rivers and harbors bill. He then in- troduced Mr. Chappell, who spoke on the New London ocean terminal pro- Ject. Commissioner Chappell Speaks. Mr. Chappell stated that the water- ‘ways movement started in this state pointed a commission of five of which the speaker was one, to work up senti- ment in favor of improving the Con-, necticut river. That commission made a lengthy report after consideration of improvements elsewhere as applicable to local conditions. Mr. Chappell said that he felt that Connecticut should be in the union and that in a short time the the handsome new stone bridge across the Connecticut river would be torn in- to to put in a draw. Traffic along the Connecticut should at least go to Great Industrial Basin. On the Thames we have, he ‘said, a finer though smaller project than the Connecticut. With our terminal open- ed up we will have a great industrial basin here with 14 miles of waterfront. The countty immediately-in back of the terminal is going to profit by it with concerns seeking manufacturing sites along the river. Not Competing For Lines. Some people have the impression that we are seeking the big passen- ger steamers but we expect the tramp steamers, the small emigrant steamers, the Russian and South American trade. We will not compete for the big Buropean lines. The speaker told of the investigations of the committee In- to the arrangement of términals in other cities and said that the $350,000 Big European channel would result in a better chan- nel. than Providence will have ,pro- vided she can secure her appropria- tions of six millions.
