Increased Tonnage For c. s. o. Canal

Backed by the Governments promise of
cooperation, the Canal Towage Company
is making active plans for greatly increas-
ing shipments of coal from Cumberland
via the Chesapeake and Ohio Canal
New boats are to be placed in service
as fast as the labor for building them can
be obtained. Storage facilities for the
increased shipments are to be provided.
While the Government has not taken
over the canal. ii is standing back Of the
present operating company in such a way
as to assure as big an increase in tonnage
as though Uncle Sam were operating the
waterway.
Despite the fact that the strike Of boat
men has delayed the opening of the canal
nearly month. il is considered certain
that shipments from now until the end Of
the boating season will total at least
Montgomery County sentinel. [volume] (Rockville, Md.) 1855-1974, 1918-04-26

10000 more tons than were brought il
over the waterway last year.
Four boats laden with coal left Cumber,
land for Washington last Friday. Boat.
men living at Sharpsburs have settled the
strike and will 60 to work at once.
Official announcement Of the abandon
ment Of the proposal to operate the chesa-
peake and Ohio Canal was made by the
Government. A statement issued by the
railroad administration said that while the
management Of this waterway would not
be disturbed. the Government would coop
crate in everyway to increase shipments
Of coal to Washington via the canal.
The statement is as follows
THE United States railroad administra-
ton has not found it necessary or advis-
able to undertake the operation of the
boats on the Chesapeake and Ohio Canal.
However the railroad administration is
interested in bringing about the Transport
tation of the largest possible tonnage of
coal from the coal fields to Washington by
way Of the canal. 1t is to be assumed
that under private management the rail-
roads reaching Washington preferred to
handle the coal by rail, but under the ex-
listing conditions the railroad administra-
ton is anxious to relieve the railroads
reaching Washington, to the greatest pos
sible extent, Of the burden Of carrying the
coal tonnage needed by Washington and
its vicinity. To accomplish this purpose
the railroad administration has ARRANGED
to cooperate to the fullest extent with the
companies maintaining and operating the
canal and expects that as a result SUBJ
stantially increased tonnage Of coal will
be carried to Washington by the canal
during the current year."
1t is understood that an important fac
tor in determining the railroad administra-
ton not to take over the canal was the
strike Of the canal boatmen. 1t was de-
termined, it is said. to avoid possible labor
trouble which might follow Government
control.
The canal administration, it also is I'M
derstood, will endeavor to make arrange
ments with large consumers in Washing
ton to take shipments of coal into Wash
ineton by the canal route The Govern
ment is the largest consumer of coal in the
capital, particularly the Navy and Treas
ury departments. These. it is assured. will
be willing to make arrangements to take
coal coming by canal.
