Major Oakes Foresees Louisville Dam To Replace Madison Structure

Mayor John C. Oakes, in charge of U S Government engineers on the Ohio River, recommends building a new Louisville dam from Fifth Street canal entrance to the Indiana shore. The six foot higher dam would create a 75 mile pool, deepen the river by six feet, and cost about 1,000,000 dollars. If approved, work may start within sixty days, though treasury funds are unavailable now. The plan aims to obviate a new Madison dam and improve year round navigation between Louisville and Carrollton. The Fourth Assistant Postmaster General proposes rural carrier salary reductions for Indiana carriers completing routes in four hours daily.
