In considering the part which the
great New York State Barge Canal
will play in the event of hostilities
betewen this country and Germany
many points which are deserving OF
serious thought are brought to light.
Furnishing, as it certainly does, a
direct route for the transportation
of all manner of produce between
the East, Great Lakes and Middle
West. the Barge Canal forms an es-
sential ling in an inland waterway
system which covers a territory Of
more than 1000 miles; reaches into
the very heart Of our grain district
and links it with our Eastern and
Middle Western manufacturing cen
tiers.
