The FUTURE Of THE HARBOR

rne action IF the Chamber of Com
merco in appointing a committee to
study harbor and port needs is altogeth-
err the most important step that has
been taken in connection with the tu-
ture OF the m of the island,
particularly if the committee has pro-
per conception of the importance OF the
work delegated to it. 1t is more lmpor-
tant tha the mere dredging of the
harbor itself, because the committee
has an opportunity to determine, Or
suggest. what is best to do once the
harbor is dredged,
The more dredging work will be Of
no benefit 70 the island unless the gov
eminent or officials directly in control
of the narbor adopt a policy which will
attract shi Us to this port and faclll-
tate their discharge and receipt of
cargo.
10 adopt a policy without carrying it
out will be futile. Men interested IN
shipping assert that San Juan is fast
getting a name among steamship cap
rains of being q port to be summed.
Part of this doubtless IS due TO labor
conditions, Other causes are the lack
OF docking facilities. n fees that are
extremely nigh ii not actually excessive.
Frequently ships are diverted from
this port because they cannot get fuel
here. Coaling facilities are inadequate
while the facilities for storing oil are so
limited that tits seldom possible to bum
ker oa~l-burning ships here. Every ship
tn It m here for fuel is apt to want
other supplies, Supplies costs money.
Money spent here helps toward pros
perity.
Ca~rgo-handAng machinery is needed if
ships are to be given quick dispatch.
