BOSTON CHAMBER
OPPOSED TO CANAL
Decides Canada Would Benefit
Chiefly by st. Lawrence Great
Lakes Waterway.

BosToN, Feb. 19.--Oppositfon to the
Great Lakes-St. Lawrence River tide
water project by the New England
Traffic League was urged In report
Of a special committee of the Boston
Chamber of Commerce made public to-
day The committee expressed the
opinion that the proposed Improvement
Of the international waterway would
more likely accrue to the benefit of the
Dominion OF Canada rather than to tne
section of the country which Is so ener-
getically pushing it."
More than one-half of the taxation
which would be levied in the United
States for the cost of the waterway,
which Is estimated at from s1O0,00o,O00
to $500, 900. 900. the report said, would
fall upon New England, New York and
PENNSYLVANIA, while the return would be
slight in comparison.
''The tonnage or American grain ship
ments which might use this route, II
continued, taking the combined ship
ments for export, through the ports OF
Boston, Philadelphia, New York and
Baltimore. would not be sufficient 70
warrant the expense even II the cost OF
u lilof7t PoA''eS -
cred"
or the hundred million tons of freight
carried in one season of eight months
on the great lakes ninety millions OF
tons consisted OF steel and coal sent to
lake ports, which never saw tidewater.
On this basis 1t is forecast the st. Law
renee River waterway would be but
fifth wheel In the wagon OF transporta-
ton.
The remaining 10.00o.0Oo tons OF
freight consisted OF grain. flour, lumber,
pig iron. &C. OF this. the committee says,
Il was estimated by one having an ex-
pert knowledge of export, less than 3
per cent. OF the grain was sent to for
elgn countries, and greater part Of
this represented Canadian shipments.
This clearly indicates that Canada
probably would be more greatly bene-
fitted by the completion of the proposed
waterway" the report added, than
would the Western States Of this coun-
try, which claim to be SO vitality inter-
ested."
Inability OF great lakes boats to make
ar ocean passage. because of peculiar
construction and the cost accruing from
slow trips seagoing liners would be
forced to make through the canalized
St Lawrence River, was offered as an
other argument against the project.
