St Lawrence Seaway locks at Massena were dedicated to President Eisenhower and former House Republican leader Bertrand H. Snell. The Eisenhower and Snell locks mark the ends of the Long Sault Canal and enable ships to pass the St Lawrence power project. The joint U.S. Canada project aims to connect the Atlantic with the Great Lakes to Toledo. Lewis G. Castle praised the Seaway’s achievement in fostering cross border cooperation. A 600 foot cofferdam breach completed a major project phase. Rep. Clarence Kilburn recalled Snell’s long years of Seaway support.
