this they should be located In Grand

Among the other prospective ad-
vantages of Grand Forks as a site for

calls attention to the proposed Great
Lakes-St. Lawrence deep waterway
project. which seems likely to reach
fruition according to a letter received
from Franklin Il. Lane. secretary of
the Interior.
Secretary Lane calls attention to the
fact that when the work nov begun
completed the only improvements
needed to permit steamers to load at
Duluth for Europe will be those re-
auired in the channel Of the st. Lawr-
ence river.
When this is done the states flour
bound for Europe would logically
