that producers of construction
materials such as lumber and
cement have estimated they
could save more than 100000
Ia year in shipping costs if the
Alexandria port could receive
ocean going vessels.
Channel Main BOttIeneck
The main bottleneck in the
revival planning is the made
quacy of the Potomac River
channel to handle ocean ship
ping, hackers of the plan have
said. The business potential
survey. financed Jointly by the
Alexandria Chamber of Com
merce, the Washington Board
Iof Trade and the City of Alex

first step in a campaign to win
congressional approval for Fed
Ieral funds to widen and deepen
the channel.
DR.. Jerome Pickard, research
director of the Washington
Board of Trade, told the meet
ing that industrial growth of the
Washington area could be in
creased vastly by proper develop
ment of the Alexandria port. He
furnished the figures which re-
vealed the consuming market Of
the area as containing more
than 2 million persons. The
market area extends further into
Virginia and Maryland than is
generally known as the suburban
area, he said.
Edward r. Carr, Washington

the port revival plan a golden
opportunity for the Washington
area. He said it would enable
the area to broaden it's economic
base and become less dependent
upon Federal employment to
maintain the economy.
