WATERWAY SURVEY
NOW TO co AHEAD
Way Cleared for st. Law
renee Canal Study by u. S.
Canadian Negotiations.

Negotiations of more than a year
have resulted in clearing the way for
active undertaking of the engineering
survey of the St. Lawrence River deep
waterway project through final agree
ment between the United States and
Canadian governments on instructions
10 govern the joint engineering boards
study of the problem.
Final draft of instructions to the
board, made public simultaneously in
both Washington and Ottawa yester-
day, with the complete correspondence
In the negotiations, showed a COM
promise finally was reached in the
matter of water diversions to be con-
sldered in studying the power pos.
sibilities of the project
Effect on Natural Levels.
Under the draft the joint board is
directed to consider in its study the
effect on natural water levels in the
ST. Lawrence River of water diver
slons from the Great Lakes or the
river made under license of either
government.
Secretary Hoover in a formal state.
ment issued last night. expressed the
pellet that with the final agreement
on instructions the engineering study
of the joint board could be completed
within year. Mr.. Hoover is chair
man of the st. Lawrence River com
mission. The settlement, he said,
marked decided step in progress
toward determination of the facts and
therefore the solution of the problem"
ne pointed out that Congress al
ready had appropriated $275, 900 for
me engineering work and that the
Canadian government also had made
necessary appropriations so that de-
tailed plans, estimates of power TO be
developed through the project and all
other engineering facts could be pre-
pared within year for the two gov
efnments.
Survey TO Take Year.
The authorized investigation to de-
termine the feasibility of the projected
deep waterway from the Great Lakes
TO the Hudson River also should be
completed within a year, Mr. Hoover
said, and with a survey of the eco
nomic aspects of both projects it will
then be possible finally to determine
national policies and to proceed with
active steps in the realization of the
lakes to-the-Sea connection"
The original draft of the instruc-
tons for the joint board Of engineers
was prepared by a group of technical
officers of the two governments and
signed in Montreal in June, 1924. The
Washington Government approved all
OF the instructions except those in sec
ton 6, which proposed that the toint
board report on the effect of water d.
version from Lake Michigan at Chi
cago amounting to from 5000 to 10000
cubic feet per second, as the diversion
involved the quantity of water avail
able for yower purposes in the pro-
lected St. Lawrence River develop
ment.

RAILWAY OVERBONDED,
FOREST SERVICE SAYS
First $s5, 100000 Mortgage Gov
cred Cost of Road, Congressional
Body Is Told.

The contention that the first mort
gage taken out by the Northern Pa
cific Railroad Co. in 1870 yeas sufficient
to cover the cost of building the road
was made today by ID. IF. MCGOWAN,
attorney for the Forest Service. before
the congressional commission investi-
eating land grants to the railroad
company and its successor, the North
ern Pacific Railway Co.
Mr.. MCGOWAN asserted that the cost
of the railroads had been estimated at
SS5 100000 and that the first mort
gage f1oated sufficient bonds to cover
this amount and that therefore. sub
sequent mortgages were uncalled for.
He also introduced testimony de-
signed to show that practically all
legislation enacted by Congress in re-
gard to the railroad had been insti
gated by officials of the company and
could not be looked upon as an at
tempt on the part Of Congress to lay
down policy governing development
of the railroad

Under ruling yesterday by Secre-

In view of the conditions which ex-
