Text Appearing Before Image:
ic Deep Waterway Associa-tion. To consider how best the Commonweatlh may cooperate withother states, more especially Rhode Island, in the development ofthese inland waterways. To consider the value of such a canal to the State and its in-terests in the development of institutions, the reduction of the costof handling raw material and manufactured products or otherwise,and the benefit to transportation generally along the Atlantic coast. The commissioners shall serve without pay and shall report tothe general court their findings on or before May i, 1911. The committee on traffic for the proposed intracoastal canal be-tween New York and Delaware Bays, submitted its report toJ. Hampton Moore, president of the Atlantic Deeper WaterwaysAssociation on March 14th. The committee states that on a•conservative estimate at least 5,200,000 tons of traffic would beshipped through the proposed canal during the early years of itsoperation. This will make a direct communication with Fall River 108
Text Appearing After Image:
A HA v. n by canal, thus connecting Fall River with Boston, New York andPhiladelphia with an inland waterway. The report advocates a sea-level canal, with dimensions as greator greater than those of the Erie and Champlain canals. Thearmy engineers estimate that the cost of a sea-level canal betweenNew York and Philadelphia, with a base width of 125 feet and adepth of 18 feet, will be $35,250,000. This sum is estimated asless than the value of the property lost along the Atlantic sea-board by shipwrecks in the last ten years, which is stated to havebeen about $38,000,000.
