estimate places the amount

is apparent that merchant or manu-
facturer who charters a BOAT he Is
obliged by the terms Of that charter
to a for the keep of the crew and
rent Of the boat for the layout OF,

tie-up OF the canal. This simply dds
to the burden OF the consumer, the

courages the utilization of river traf-
fc and he goes back to rail freight

unable to handle the vast volume OF
freight it is asked to carry.
