Final Passage Of Lake Channel Measure Assured
Congress seems set to approve deepening the upper Great Lakes channels to 27 feet at a $115 million cost. Senate action stalls briefly over timing as some Southwest natural gas interests seek to delay until 1956 to align with the Harris bill. Senator Wiley pushes early planning funds and a seven year construction horizon, while Wisconsin lawmakers prepare to return home after adjournment.
