During April the tolls for the first time were greater than the cost of operation and maintenance of the canal by $84,112, the total for the month being $84.112, the total for the month being $442,415 and the cost of operation $368,%8, the latter being the least for any month since the open- ing of the canal. The reduction in operat- Ing expenses were due largely to Aimin- ished dredging operations.
