According to cost estimates, the

completion of the 200,000-horse-

order that a waterway to accom-
modate vessels requiring 27 feet
draught may be provided through
out the Great Lakes-St. Lawrence
system. from Lake Superior to
Montreal"
At a press conference earlier this
week, President Roosevelt indicated
that considerable ocean-going ship
ping might be built in Great Lakes
yards if deep seaway can be COM
pleted into the st. Lawrence.
Long favorite project with Mr..
Roosevelt, the st. Lawrence project
was shelved in 1884, when the
United States Senate refused to
give a two-third majority support
to a development treaty with the
Canadian government.
Negotiations Were Speeded.
To overcome this barrier, negotia-
tions directed at a joint agreement
rather than treaty were initiated
in 1896 and were speeded when war
broke out in Europe in 1899.
Last october the President dele
gated s1,000000 of a special discre-
tionary defense appropriation to the
Federal Power Commission and the
Army Engineer Corps for prelim-
mary engineering studies.
AT the same time he established
a st. Lawrence Advisory Committee,
which has assisted him and cooper
ated with Canadian government
agencies in the planning which led
to the present agreement.
A report was submitted to Presi-
dent Roosevelt and Prime Minister
Mackenzie King in January. Rec
ommending the present undertaking,
this report estimated that delivery
of power can be begun and naviga-
ton provided within four years of
the time when active work Is in
itiated.'
Urged Immediate Action.
In an exchange of personal mes
sages between Mr.. Roosevelt and
Mr.. Mackenzie King, the former
called attention to this four-year
time factor and pointed out that
under such circumstances the St.
Lawrence project could be completed
as soon as battleships for which
money is now being appropriated.
Il am sure you will agree with
me- Mr.. Roosevelt wrote, that
while our countries must put forth

ment of such waters as may be
available for power purposes; on
