PLANS DEEP WATERWAY,
GREAT LAKES TO SEA
International Commission, Repre-
senting q. S. and Canada, 1nves-
tigating Feasibility Of Project.

| DETROIT. Mich. May (by the As
ISOLATED Press).-Hearings by the in
iternational commission authorized by
the American and Canadian govern
ments to investigate the feasibility of
constructing a deep waterway outlet
! from the great lakes to the sea by
| way of the st. Lawrence river are
scheduled to get under way in the
lakes region during this week.
The first of the series of hearings,
which is to deal largely with the prof.
ect from an economic standpoint. is to
be held at North Bay. Ontario, on Fri
day. Other sessions will be held at
Sault Ste. Marie, Marquette. Lansing.
Fort William and Duluth. after which
the commission will visit the principal
cities of the northwestern and north
central states.
Tour to End Mt Buffalo.
The initial tour is TO end at Buffalo
late in June. The hearings are then
to be taken up again in the fall with
the more important sittings in the
principal great lakes ports
Industries and agricultural interests
in the territory to be covered by the
hearings have been requested to pre-
pare data showing, from their stand
point. the desirability or undesira bill
ty of the project and What economic
advantages, if any. might be gained
Dy d ulTcCt TOutc " 1OTcISH uldThelS.
On the result of these hearings the
commission plans to base its joint re-
port to the American Congress and
the Canadian parliament. with recon-
mendations for or against. according
ly as it finds the economic value to
the middle west in proportion to the
probable cost of construction of the
deep channel.
New York and Montreal Oppose.
New York and Montreal interests
are said by proponents of the project
to be it's chief opponents. hearings
are to be held in these cities late in
the summer. New York opposition. it
is stated. is based on the possibility
of injury to that ports prestige. Mon
treaI, as the established st. Lawrence
port of outlet, is said to have taken
a somewhat similar position.
Sentiment in the lake region, which
includes some of the country's great
est industrial centers, and in the
agricultural areas. according to pro-
ponents of the scheme, has been
shown. by preliminary surveys. to ia
vor the undertaking.
