Lorain Harbor Plan Delayed One Year By Senate Inaction
Lorain faces at least a one year financing delay for the 19 million harbor improvement program as the omnibus bill allocating about 600 000 for Lorain and other harbor projects sits in the Senate Public Works Committee without recommendation. Congress adjourned and action is unlikely before January with a 1961 financing hope. Officials blame Chairman Dennis Chavez of New Mexico for the stall amid New Mexico projects absence, as local leaders seek inclusion in the 1960 budget to boost St Lawrence Seaway integration.
