Is the United States to be outdons
in the matter of water transporta-
| tion now that It has taken up vigor-
ously the question of improving its
inland streams and It's great harbors
so as to admit of the quickened flow
OF Its ever-increasing commerce?
This is a question which improved
waterway enthusiasts are asking
themselves, having reference to the
recently-issued consular report on
experiments. which for a number of
years have been under way In Eng
land, Germany and France, to deter
mine the feasibility of the electric
canal and its possibilities in the way
of reducing the costs OF freight car
rlage on inland canals. The report
states that the total cost of electrical
haulage per ton mile on the canal at
Douai, France. is somewhat less than
one-tenth of one cent, with a traniC
of 3.500,000 tons per annum. One
third Of this cost is for the actual
energy used for barges while the re-
malnder goes for upkeep charges or
the plant. including labor, repairs
etc. These figures OFFER the strong
est kind of argument In support ci
the contention of the National Rivers
andi Harbor congress that water
transportation is infinitely cheaper
than that by rail. This organlza'
tion began Ave years ago to urge up
on congress and the public the Inn
perative necessity for Immediately
undertaking a steady and scientific
Improvement of the great rivers ant

OF It's crusade that the Fifty-ninth
congress appropriated record

acter, while President Roosevelt ap
pointed a commission to supervise
the enormous task involved. How
ever, the National Rivers and Har
bors congress insists that the amour
appropriated by the last congress
practically will be wasted unless fu
ture congresses can be impressc'
with the vital Importance TO tn,

preparations. To the end that II ma!
