less prejudice against change Of har-
bor lines, but in Astorias case the
present location Of the line is detfi-
mental to the shipping interests OF the
port.
Recently, 1t will be recalled, the
chamber asked that the harbor lines
in the eastern portion Of the city be
altered, and the government officials
finally agreed TO change. However.
the new lines are practically as bad as
the old and the eastern harbor is still
shut OFF from deep water. This limits
the mills there to vessels Of small draft

Now complaint is made that the low
