Aldermen Rally Against Water Limit in Chicago Canal
Chicago Aldermen introduced by Alderman Hunter protest proposed federal water limits for the drainage canal. They urge Congress to reject legislation or treaties that would cap flow at 10 000 cubic feet per second, saying it would hinder the Calumet channel and harm the city’s drainage and health. Copies go to the treaty committee and Tulola delegation for push to keep control with the federal government.
