Canada Needs a Respite.
From Canad;

1t is to be hoped that well-meaning
philanthropists in the mother country
will make no attempt to export Ito Can
ada artisans. much less half-skiled or
unskilled labor for some months to come.
The charitable Canadian is by no means
slow TO help the distressed British immi-
grant. But since the Canadian millionaire
does not give huge sums to charitable
institutions and charities in Canada are
really kept up by people of moderate
means. ii is grossly unfair TO add to
their burden.

It is Of the highest Importance that
a proper appreciation of state imita
F. tions and the necessity of federal. con-
troll should prevail. Perhaps snfici
emily clear idea may be conveyed by a
single concrete illustration. The Ohio
River. is one Of our main channels Of
transportation, but only, a fraction of
it's potential utility is developed. The
waterway is hardly at all improved
from it's natural state so far as the
facilities for navigation are concerned.
Floods occur yearly, causing many mil
lion dollars worth of damage and
permanently preventing the occupation
Of considerable areas. At other sea-
sons traffic is suspended for lack of
sufficient depth and not infrequently
hundreds. of thousands of laden barges
lie Idle for weeks awaiting the rise
Of the stream-entailing enormous loss.
These disabilities could be readily re-
moved and the Ohio River rendered an
ideal waterway with uniform depth
Of from nine to twelve feet throughout
the year. In order to accomplish this
it is only necessary to construct reser-
voirs near the headwaters of the stream
and it's tributaries. By this means~the
surplus flow. could be impounded and
fed to the channel in regulated quaint
ties as needed The entire works would
cost not more than two hundred million
dollars and, viewed as pure and sim
pie business proposition, would repre-
sent splendid investment. Waving
consideration of the incalculable bene-
fits to transportation from such utili-
ty, the water power which could be
generated by it would yield, on a con-
servative estimate, fifty million dollars
annually. Why has such a obvious
improvement not been effected ere this?
Because the interests of six states are
involved in the matter and they can
not effectively cooperate. The consti-
tuition forbids any state entering into
a treaty with any other. It is hardly
to be expected that one state, and that
the one which would derive the least
benefit from the enterprise, should in
cur the expense and responsibility of
constructing the necessary waterworks.
Obviously the federal government is
the only agency through which such
an undertaking can be carried out
The Craftsman.
