Greater Seaway Coordination Need Stressed
A Senate subcommittee studying a Great Lakes St. Lawrence Seaway compact heard Dr. N R Danielian of Detroit urge unified federal state and municipal action to end regional rivalry hindering harbor development. He condemned the poker game approach and urged fairer transportation costs to lakes ports to compete with Atlantic and Gulf ports. Albert W Hachmeister of the Great Lakes Commission accused ICC of giving lake ports only two days free time to unload export cars while Atlantic and Gulf ports enjoy six days. The witnesses cited the Great Lakes Commission as a facilitator among Illinois Indiana Michigan Minnesota Pennsylvania Wisconsin and the Canadian provinces Ontario and Quebec in the eight state two Canadian province plan.
