The St. Lawrence Waterway to the Sea
The writer assumes the only substantial justification for a deep waterway connecting the Great Lakes with the salt seas is the deep penetration of the continent to Duluth, Port Arthur, and Chicago. The navigable right of way of the whole Great Lakes System, therefore, is involved in the discussion. The 1924 project-drafts in Lakes Erie, Michigan-Huron, and Superior with the connecting rivers, are 20 ft. The waterway to the sea contemplates initially 25-ft. and ultimately 30-ft. drafts. The St. Lawrence River is the geological avenue to the sea through which outflow the surplus waters of the Great Lakes.
