Old Canals Fate
With Committee
Delegation viii Inspect Ancient
Waterway Jan. 25-Recom-
mends Purchase

Norfolk, Va, Jan. l8-The fate
of the old Dismal Swamp Canal,
planned By George Washington
and in operation for more than
"a century, will probably be de-
termined when members of the
Rivers and Harbors Committee Of
the House Of Representatives
come here January Is to go over
the canal route with a view to
recommending action as to its
purchase by the Government. Wal
lace Dempsey, chairman Of the
committee, will head the delega-
ton.
The Chesapeake and Albemarle
Canal, operated by the Govern
ment free Of tolls and TO q great
extent over a course somewhat
parallel to the Dismal Swamp
Canal, has drawn traffic away
from the old route to such an
extent that officials of the Lake
Drummond Canal Company have
advised the shippers along its
route that they will soon have
to suspend operation. They have
asked the Government to buy the
canal, in order that the business
and industrial establishments
buiit on its banks viii not SUI
fer.
1t is estimated that the canal
property is worth more than ST.
600, 900, but the company has Of
fered to sell it outright for 5000
600, realizing that unless the gov
eminent buys it the entire pro
iect will have to be closed. At
the last session of Congress the
committee considered the propos-
al at length, but failed to re-
port.
The committee was invited to
come here to look over cana! prop
erty and see how vitality copcern-
ed are the numerous large indus
trial plants built up along the
course of the canal, which runs
down into North Carolina. 1t IS
proposed to have the Government
operate it on a basis similar to
that on which the newChesapeaHe
and Albemarlc Canal IS oper-
ated.
Representative Hallet Ward.
Of North Carolina, and W A
Moore and J. T. Bcal, of Viz
ginia. have accepted the invita-
ton to come with Chairman Wal
lace, and it is expected Senator
Hiram johnson will also be a
member of the party. They will
make a "trip along the entire
course Of the canal, which passes
through a territory that has been
developed almost entirely by the
canal itself.
It also has been proposed that
the Government use this canal as
means of draining portion of
Dismal Swamp, which Is said to
be, underneath the water and
scum, the most fertile soil in
America. Thousands of acres Of
