OTTAWA.-A dam only four
feet high stretching between
two islands in the St. Lawrence
River is being ripped out by the
Canadian government in the
interests of better relations with
the United States.
The Gut Dam, which the
Canadians built straddling the
border so years ago to aid river
shipping. has caused hundreds
of complaints and scores of law
suits in the last two years.
Few people had heard of the
dam before the Great Lakes
entered the current high phase
of their water level cycle. This
year and last high water in
Lake Ontario damaged much
shore property, mostly on the
American side. The property
owners blamed the dam, which
blocks part of the st. Lawrence
River and backs UP the water
so that the lake level is about
six inches higher than 1t would
be without the dam.

Here Are the People Who Will Guide
D. C.'s Destinies in Coming Years
By John w. Thompson. Jr.

II you're interested in a recap
of election effects on the con-
gressional committees that gov
ern the District. here it is:
House District Committee
gislative)-Representative Sid
Simpson. Republican, of Illi-
nois probably will be the new
chairman Of this 25-member
group. He will take over from
Representative Mcmillan. Dem
ocrat, of South Carolina. OBJ
servers feel Mr.. Simpson will
provide friendly If not too ag-
gressive leadership but certain
ly more active than that of Mr..
Mcmillan. -Four vacancies have
been created, with home rule
the major issue affected.
/. Representative Beall. Re-
publican. Of Maryland moves to
the1 Senate. He opposed home
rule.
2. Representative Kennedy,
Democrat. of Massachusetts,
moves to the Senate. He was a
champion of home rule.
3. Representative r d d e n,
Democrat, Of North Carolina
did not run for reelection. He
was seldom in attendance at
committee meetings except
when the Southern bloc needed
votes to pigeonhole rule
legislation.
4. Representative Sitter, Re-
publican. of Pennsylvania was
defeated after redistricting
threw him against a strong
Democratic candidate. He was
a supporter Of home rule.
It is too early yet to predict
who will fill these vacancies.
However. since this is duty gen.
orally accorded to freshmen and
since the previous Maryland
representative has moved to the
other side of the Capitol, there
would seem good chance that
newly elected Representative
Hyde of Maryland may be as
signed.
This would be q good break,
if his early expression of views
means anything. He favorS ma
tional representation for the
District and fair Federal sup
port for District projects. On
racial segregation he is grad
ualist. He is also a champion
of integrating at a Metropoli-
tan Area level those things
which the District has in COM
mon with its neighbors in Mary
land and Virginia. In this field
he has mentioned specifically
planning and transit operations.
It is not yet certain that
newly elected Representative
Broyhill. Republican. of Vir-
ginia's new 10th district will be
named to the committee. vir-
ginia already is represented on
the group by veteran Represen-
tative Smith, Democrat. It is
not likely that the State would
be given two members, although
Mr.. Breyhill wants the job.
Mr.. Smith is now in Europe
so the answer to whether he
plans to stay on will have to
await his return.

The work of dredging out the
$4,000 cubic yards of rock fill
which make up the dam began
early in November and is
scheduled to be completed
January Is. If the job cannot
be finished by then, operations
will be suspended until next
year.
The reason is that the st.
Lawrence will be in flood in
, June. 1t will take four and one
half months for 80 per cent of
the pent-up water in Lake On
tario to run through the re-
opened channel. If the channel
cannot be reopened by January
Is, the government will make it
a two-year job rather than risk
adding to the floods which each
year inundate sections of the
Province of Quebec bordering

State between the Pennsylvania
turnpike to the Indiana line.
A proposed Indiana turnpike
would extend the superhigh-
way to that States western
boundary.
When these expressways be-
come realities it will be possible
to drive from the George WASH
ington Bridge at New York onto
the Jersey turnpike, off onto q
proposed Pennsylvania highway
that will link the Jersey and
Pennsylvania turnpikes, across
Pennsylvania to the Ohio ex-
pressway, and right on through
Indiana, all on high-speed toll
highways.
Pennsylvania has blueprinted
another highway from the
Maryland line across the State
to the northern border near
Port Jervis. N. Y. West Virginia
is building its cross-State pike
which will eventually be linked
with the Pennsylvania and Ohio
turnpikes.
This is only part of the pic
ture. In addition. Maine, New
Hampshire, Massachusetts,, Con-
necticut. New York, New Jersey,
Iowa, North Carolina, Tennessee,
Kentucky and Florida have
other express roads in operation
or in various stages of prepara-
ton.
Curious Swing
The revival of toll roads TO
meet the demands of the auto
mobile age marks a curious
wing OF the pendulum in Ameri-
can transportation. The first
toll turnpike was built in 1892
between Philadelphia and Lam
caster, Pa, and owned by a
joint stock company. But such
enterprises were never too prof.
liable in those days.
With the coming of the canals
and railroads, there was not
enough transportation business
to go around, and many stock
companies abandoned their
poorly-kept turnpikes to the
States and counties.
Even the stage coach busi-
ness had its headaches. The
stages stopped at wayside tav-
erns, and to insure a steady
flow of patrons, the tavern own
ers bought into the coach buSi-
ness. But so many taverns
began opening along the main
turnpikes that travel became
too slow. Too many passengers
reached their destinations tired,
penniless and somewhat tipsy.

is obligated to reimburse the
United States Treasury for any
damages the courts may allow.
The claims of these plain

estimated at about So million.
are one reason the Canadian
government decided to remove
the dam this fall and winter,
instead Of postponing the job
until the Canadian st. Law
renee seaway project is

been taken out anyway under
the seaway plan. so shipping

to determine toll road potentials
and other means Of improving
highway transportation. The
feasibility Of a cash-on the-line
artery from north of Richmond
to south of Petersburg will also
be determined.
Pennsylvania opened the first
superhighway in 1910 with al
most immediate success, but
World War II prevented any
immediate spread of the idea.
Up to 1949. the combined length
of such dream highways" in
the entire country was only 800
miles. But. by last summer,
thousands of cars were spinning
over 750 miles of new express
ways. with $40 more miles being
built, and an additional 785
miles on the drafting boards.
In II years the Pennsylvania
turnpike collected about $50
million in tolls from some 81
million vehicles.

Toll Roads Are the Comma Thinq
By Joseph G. o'Keefe

The District motorists song
Of the open road is likely to
have a few bars of the cash
registers jingle woven into its
score in future years.
Highway engineers Of Mary
land and Virginia disclosed
simultaneously last week that
those two States are blueprint
ing toll roads in the Capital
region as a means Of paying
the costs of channeling of their
enormous traffic burdens.
The opening of Maryland's
Bay, Bridge last summer fore
Swallowed such a project. Com
pletion Of the span conceded
with a tremendous expressway
expansion program embracing
some Is States. This project
was touched OF by the sspec-
tacular financial success of the
Pennsylvania and New Jersey
turnpikes.
AS a basic step in its 12-year,
3.450-mile construction and
modernization enterprise, the
Maryland State Roads Commits
sion intends to ask the General
Assembly for authority to levy
traffic tolls.
Three Arteries
Three future transportation
arteries mentioned as most
likely to operate on a pay-as-
you-ride basis are the new
expressway from Washington
into Annapolis, the National
Pike being built from Frederick
into the District and a through
way on the Eastern Shore from
Queenstown to Warwick at the
Delaware boundary. Ten addi-
tional thoroughfares will be
studied with view to their
conversion to toll status.

that two other Senators-Ke-

Of concrete from the Delaware

limit and the absence Of traffic

Moreover, the expressway's
