Maine to New York
Aid of State Pier

Portland. Jan. 24-(SpeciaD-Th
State Pier is apparently proving
something of a lifesaNer for Maine at
the present time. This is due to the
fact that because of it. and through
the efforts of the State Pier directors.
a New York and Portland steamship
service was re-eStablished. Today
this line is carrying out of this port
the largest cargoes in its history. and
but for it Maine producers and ship
pers might now be suffering from a
virtual embargo on their products.
due to the inability of the railroads
TO handle them.
The heavy coast snow storms of
the past few weeks have very seri-
ously interfered with railroad sched-
ules. so much so that freight ship
ments out of Maine have been badly
DELAYED. The fact that n steamship
service is in operation between Port
land and New York make it possible
for Maine producers to ship their
products to Portland and then have
them transported by boat to New
York In this manner they avoided
the freight congestion on the rail-.
roads through Massachusetts and
Connecticut and were able to get
their goods to market without serious
delay.
This situation has Shown tho neces-
sity for 4 water route between Maine
and New York. The fact that the
New York line was in operation has
made it possible to hold in Maine a
large number of cars for use within
the state. a very great advantage.
If they had been shipped out, they
would have, been lost to Maine. and
there is no telling when they would
have returned. BY keeping these cars
in Maine and having ~them avallabie
for local business, heavy per diem
charges have been saved the snip
pers of the State. And all of this has
been made possible through the fact
that there was New York line run
ming out of this port to relieve the
congestion. The last New YORK BOAT
which sailed from the state Pier car

lieycd to he record breaker for

a Statue of George Washington pre-
scented to BuenoS Aires.
In such case. the high representa-
tfves of that country must make
their plea to congress. through the
department of state, for permission
to erect the statue. The state de-
partment in transmitting the applica-
ton must wind the red tape strongly
about the plans, which must be COM
plCte to the minuteSt details.
After the officials of the depart
ment have the papers in hand so long
that the sponsors of the movement
begin TO fear they have been lost or
permanently pigeon holed. they are
sent to the Library Committees of the
Senate and House. When these
committees have discussed the prop
osition at length, it is sent to the
Fine Arts Commission of the District
of Columbia government if it finds
congressional favor. This latter
government, it must be remembered,
is also a federal institution.
If this commission approves of the
idea and the lines of the memorial,
it looks around for a suitable site.
AS the federal government owns most
of the odd corners about the city, it
can appropriate any suitable site it
pleases. This settled on, the COM
mission sends the plan back to the
congressional committees with it's
recommendations. or objections. and
it is up to the committees to frame

bill, but If it does 1T must then go
