The fire. for which two alarms lTere sounded, apparently started in a partition between the boiler room and a coal pocket.

 Under no illusions as to the diff faculties which face those who would

 Convinced that narrow nation bitterness cynical distrust of human natures potentialities for peace, and all the other causes and abettors of
 war are still dominant among all the nations, we plead against com placent optimism concerning inter- national affairs. The reality of the danger never was more manifest.

IX-The st. Lawrence Ship
Channel

The natural water route from the
head Of the Great Lakes to the At
lantic is down the Great Lakes from
their western terminals at Duluth
Superior and at Chicago, past the
cities and harbOrs along their shores
to Buffalo, and from Buffalo across
Lake Ontario and down the st. Law
renee river to the Atlantic.
This is a water level, down hill pull
all the way. The only reason why it
is not used by ocean ships at the
present time is the fact that at two
points there r rapids to overcome.
These rapids have already been
bridged by canals which float small
vessels-ships carrying 2,000-ton car
goes and less. Ocean ships have
come into and gone out Of the Great
Lakes regularly during and since the
World war. Nearly, if not quite 60
vessels have made the Atlantic-St.
Lawrence-Great Lakes voyage during
the season of 1926.
But vessels of this modest size are
not economical freight carrying
ships. They cannot compete with
the standard ocean freighter thai
handles from seven to 10 Thousand
tons of cargo at a trip. The present
canals of the st. Lawrence and tbs
Niagara will not permit ships to loaC
to more than IA feet draft, while the
standard ocean freighter needs q
feet of water or more. So for thu
purpose of opening the Great Lake.
to ocean navigation it is ~necessar!
that the canals of the st. Lawrence
and at Niagara shall be enlarged
The Canadian government is alread,
spending about $1OO, 100000 on tn
Welland canal. This canal now build
ing will have locks 81 feet deep and
channel q feet deep. When opened i
1880 it will be wide enough and dee
enough to carry any of the lax
freighters or any ocean ship tha
: can go through the great locks at tn
$500" 1t will be sufficiently larg
to accommodate ocean freighters cal

madam engineers who have surveyed
the route, al S16O,OOO,OOO, consider

flow of the river furnishes an I'M
mense amount of water power, which
in the interest Of economy should be
develoued and used at the same time,
the estimates Of cost Of providing
such water power, ready for delivery
at the bus-bar, is included IN the
army engineers estimate. The water
power development adds $1O9,OOO,-
O0O to the figures, or a total of
S269, 100000 is considered by the en-
gineers sufficient to provide a ship
channel deep enough for ocean going
ships of ordinary size, and also 20
create, develop and use the water
powers Of the ST.. Lawrence, of which
1900, 900 horsepower is in the inter
national section.
Half Of this, or 100000 horsepower
would be the portion belonging to the
United States.
The cost of ship channel construc-
ton would be divided between the
United States and Canada. If we
divided such costs on a $3.50 basis,
then the cost of the st. Lawrence
ship channel, considering the water
power development as paying for it.
self, would be one-half of the $780,
100000 required for channel improve
ment, or $50, 900 600. Can the Unit
ed States afford to make a perms-
nent investment of $8O,OO0,O0O in or
der to make an economic saving
of $12O, 100000 a year?

Shall We Move the Atlantic?

burg, 60 miles below the foot of the
lake.
At the other end of the st. Law
renee ship channel route lies the At
lantic ocean and the lower st. Law
renee river. Montreal, a thousand
miles up the st. Lawrence from the
Straits Of Belle Isle, is at the head
Of ocean navigation. Today Mon
treal, measured in overseas commerce.,
is the second largest North Ameri-
can port. She leads the ports of the
Gulf and of the Atlantic, New York
alone excepted. No Pacific coast
port does as much t-ransOceanic bust
ness as Montreal. The harbor of
Montreal accommodates ships much
larger than the ordinary ocean
freighter-great passenger vessels
that run on a regular course between
that city and the British Isles.
There is no point in the st. Law
renee river below Montreal where
the depth of the water in the channel
is less than 80 feet. The channel be-
low Montreal, like the Great Lakes
and connecting channel above Og-
densburg, New York, is deep and
wide, and in every way adapted to
the s of ocean going ships.
Between Ogdensburg and Montreal
lies the section of the st. Lawrence
river that needs improvement. That
river, like the Detroit river, with
which it might be compared, which
is, in fact, an upper section of the
same stream, is not a river in the
usual sense Of that term. It con-
meets two large bodies Of water and
has a remarkably steady flow. There
are no floods, and for the reason that
the Great Lakes act as a settling
basin there is neither sediment mol
sand bars. The St. Lawrence is
