Sen. Frear Urges
New Summit Bridge

. United States SeantOr J. Allen
Frear said this week that the gen.
eral improvement OF the Chesa-
peake and Delaware Canal, includ-
ing the construction of a new four
lane fixed bridge at Summit, is ur-
gently needed in the interest of the
states economic advancement.
In his weekly statement from
Washington, the Senator discussed
the recommendations issued last
week by the Chief of Engineers
which call for an extensive revamp-
ing program along. the vital water
way.
One of the principal recOmmen-
dations in the report is for the con-
strGction of the new four-lane Sum-
NIT Bridge by the Federal Govern
ment.
Approval of this project by the
Board of Rivers and HarbOrs is
elimination of Senator Frear's long
efforts to convince the Corps of
Engineers that the Government and
not the state should bear the cost
of construction.
Recently, Senator Frear, in con-
junction with Senator Williams, Of
fered a new bill in Congress which
specifically seek adequate authori-
zation and appropriations for the
project.
On the broader aspect of the
whole canal itself, Senator Frear
declared that not only in Delaware,
but shipping ports elsewhere along
} the Delaware River are vitality con-
cerned with the condition of the
waterway. Mr. Frear pointed out
that the canal serves as a short
route for traffic and saves 286 nau-
tical miles between such places as
Baltimore and ports to the north
east, including Wilmington. Were
the canal not operative, shipping
would have to use the longer, out
side sea route.
Said Senator Frear, eve need an
adequate waterway deep enough
wide enough, and straight enough
to carry our commerce for the ma
ton and the world. Overhead we
require adequate bridges, like the
proposed four-lane structure al
Summit, to bear the ever growing

in reducing trade BARRIERS" says
Mr.. Hertwig.
Customs have been cut two
thirds from SmOOt-Hawley levels.
More than S. per cent of all Am
erican imports are now on the
free-list. On those which are duti-
able, the customs averaged only
about IL per cent of the ad valOrem
values.
1.-THE facts are that our imports
have quadrupled from pre-War, and
doubled since 1947. Over half the
goods we buy from foreign lands
come in duty-free, and another %
per cent are subject only to nOmi-
nal rates. These raw materials,
foOdstuffs and semi-manufactured
goods flow in with no impediments
and certainly there is no effort to
+ restrict their consumption here.
Indeed, we would like to buy many
items in greater volume if they
were aVailable-such as copper,
tin, tungsten and other strategic
materials"
Protective tariffs, Mr.. Hertwig
points out, apply only to that re-
naming 25 percent of our imports,
which are in the finished goods
category, an area a bit small for
the solution of world trade distOr-
| tiOns.
According to this authority, there
are two general barriers to the flow
of world trade: one is thrown up
by those nations that restrict i'm
ports to keep their money at home,
the other is imitation, that prevents
many countries from marking their
goods at a price others will pay.
And, if we might suggest another,
it is the lack of that enterprise
that prompts Americans to study
their customers needs and interests
and produce goods that are too use
full and attractive to resist.
