Book Economic Aspects of the Great Lakes St  Lawrence Ship Channel  Classic Reprint

Download or read book Economic Aspects of the Great Lakes St Lawrence Ship Channel Classic Reprint written by Roy S. Macelwee and published by . This book was released on 2015-07-06 with total page 308 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Economic Aspects of the Great Lakes St. Lawrence Ship Channel In this analysis of the economic aspects of the Great Lakes-St. Lawrence Ship Channel, the authors have endeavored to present conservatively the more important local and national advantages to be gained from opening the Great Lakes to ocean traffic. Prior to making this investigation, they, like many others, had formed an immature judgment that ocean vessels on this route could not compete with existing routes serving the Northwest. A study of the factors affecting the costs and advantages of the various available routes and methods of transportation has served to dispel the impressions derived largely from reports submitted many years ago when the conditions and costs of transportation, as well as the needs of the vast territory served by the Great Lakes, were very different from what they are at the present time. The authors desire to give credit for valuable information regarding various phases of the proposition, contained in public utterances and in special papers by Herbert Hoover, Julius H. Parties, William C. Redfield, George F. Roberts, Senator Irvine L. Lenroot, Senator Chas. E. Townsend, Congressman A. P. Nelson, and many others whose names appear in this report and in the record of hearings before the International Joint Commission.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Before beginning the more specific study of the economic aspects of the Great Lakes-St. Lawrence Ship Canal, I shall present a brief review of the geographical features of those connecting bodies of water, which, if opened to the sea, would add 2700 miles to the coast line of North America, and which, for this reason, offers tremendous possibilities in its development. But there are also natural geographical disadvantages which are barriers to commerce throughout this system. These barriers must be removed if any good is to come from the system as a whole. Therefore, the entire question of improvement revolves about a few short stretches of un-navigable water.

This book was released on 2018-02-14 with total page 44 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Joint Debate on the St. Lawrence River Ship Channel I am not going, in the time that I have, to burden you with a mass Of statistics. Any of you who are deeply interested in this and wish to form your own conclusions can secure all Of this data. It is printed in the report Of the International Joint Commission, which you may Obtain. It is printed in other public documents which you may Obtain, and we Of the Great lakes-st. Lawrence Tidewater Association will gladly facilitate your desire for anything of that sort. We have two sets Of arguments to meet, and I shall not deal with them in detail. The opponents are represented by New York, and it is mighty fine that we have Governor Miller with us today to present their Opposition, but, after reading him for many hours, the conclusion that I arrived at is that their opposition is in two forms. One is that it can't be done. It does not matter what these reports are; what the arguments are in its support. It does not matter what the engineering investigation may have been nor the conclusions thereon, but we Of New York State say it cannot be done. It is not feasible. It is im possible. The second division Of the opposition lies in the claim that, if it is done, the great traffic of the interior Of the continent will flow out by the water route, and New York port, New York harbor, New York City and New York State will suffer. I hope I am too good an Ameri can to desire, or that any of you would desire, the adoption of any policy that would be destructive Of the interests of the Empire State. I think it is almost childish to imagine that any such result would follow. And in that second argument New York makes the statement that it will cost several hundred millions of dollars. The Joint Com mission says to be divided between the two countries, Canada and the United States. And then recently through the public press, whatever the sources may have been we do not know, the suggestion has been made to the people Of the Mississippi Valley - and I had the honor Of being for two years the president of the Mississippi Valley Association-that this development would not be in their interest, because forsooth it would require enormous sums out Of the Treasury Of the United States Government in order that this project Of the Great lakes-st. Law rence might be carried through, and to that extent the necessarydevelopment of the Mississippi Valley and the Mississippi River and its tributaries would be damaged, put Off, postponed.

Book excerpt: Excerpt from The St. Lawrence Seaway Project In the preparation of this survey, the basic materials used were the reports of a Joint Board of Engineers (appointed by the Canadian and United States governments), an Interdepartmental Report of the United States Government, other governmental documents, and the report published by the Brookings Institution, an impartial research foundation of Washington, D. C. Original analyses as to the costs and as to the economic and political effects of the pro posed seaway were then made from this basic material.
