Two Way Ship Canal Between Lake Superion And Lake Michigan ('hicago, Aug., I.?(By the Asso ; ciated Press).?A two-way ship canal between I-ikes Superior and Michigan, deep enough for oeean steamers, eould he built at a reasonable cost | and would divert to this loute and to j < hit ago at least 75 per cent of the tonnage which now go s through i Sault Ste. Marie, according to I). . base Penison, a C'hicag ? eng'neer. After surveying th t.rriiory i 'hrough which it was nroposed to | build such a can:1', Mr. i'enison sa:d that the best plate for the cut-off I | route would be from a point near An Train, Mich., on I ...I y Superior to 'he headwaters of th hi/ north of Escanaba, Mich, on I.the Michigan. It was pointed out th tf any ship (.anal from I.ake Mi hig n south to the (> v 11 f <d" Mexico would require more water than I. I.e AI hig in could at present supply. As . n example the engineer showed that lie Panama canal would be ustless without the artificial lake which keep.- th eana' full of U'litor And 1 .??!-: ? M ihitrnn hi' said, is shrinking. Since the governnicnt began to keep i pro ?ls, the i surface of the lake has 1. on lowered several inches. Half a century ago I the lake was said to he sliah ly les.? j than <i-0 feet above the surface of the |! Atlantic ocean and is now said to be little more than ??IS feet ah >ve the Atlantic. According to Mr. Denison the greater part of this shrinkage ha: taken place during the last lii years. "The water necessary for the Gulf canal could he obtained from T>ak'> Superior," the engineer said. "Lake I Superior is now nearly twenty-one feet higher than Iaike Michigan, but the bottom of Lake Superior goes lown many hundred of feet b low the surface of the Atlantic. In many places i? is not certain that the bottom has been reached even at four or live thousand feet, while Lake Mich igan is comparatively shallow even in its deepest places. The many smaller lakes in territory surround ing Lake Superior are one to 800 feet above its surf;vle. They re1 eive much water but have no surface river outlets. It is Mr. I Vinson's belief these lakes have underground . < utlets into Lake Superior. The supply of water from Lake Superior and the smaller lakes that are 1 hove and surrounding it will be practically inexhaustible, but only as long as the large tracts of forests are til lowed to stand. The future generations, it was stated, will suffer in .wery way if "this selfish generation id nllnivnil I., vnk II, >?lk ..r ...... ~r ... vw WW HIV VUI vu I'l UIIV u: its most valuable resources." j Mr. Denison said this excessive water supply gives Lake Superior much more than it needs, and in cei; tain seasons the oversupply goes | down through Sault Ste. Marie into ! Lake Huron in large quantities. "All ' of this water should come down the 21-foot incline into Lake Michigan and would do so were it not for a solid rim rock or basin edge which . holds it back," he continued. "This rimrock starts on this surface at a I point a short distance west of Marquette and continues east to Saul' Ste. Marie. A low place in the rimrock at Au Train makes this point the most desirable spot to begin the canal." Tlie engineer's observations showed that there are few shallow bench?s around Lake Superior except in bays, ! channels and small river mouths Ninety-live percent of the shore is | deep water one hundred to five hun ; died feet from land, and consequent; ly does not give good footing fo i lueakwaters much further out. j At the proposed starting point the i soil is light and sand for slightly I more than two miles south from I^tke i, Superior, averaging ten to tifty feet I above tbe level of the lake, the rej port shows. The next three mi'es j ire of rimrock, fifty to seventy-five I feet above the lake level, and covered with light, sandy soil. South of the rimrock the land slopes down for a distance of more than a mile to about four miles of low, swampy land from which a small river runs to headwaters of the F.scanaba bay. "This 'Lake Superior and Michigan anal' would not cost more than $10, iniu,(mhi ;is no expensive ilnm would lie necessary," Mr. Denison said. "This 'rimroek' and locks would form the dam. The extra water at the locks could he used for electric generating and this, together with the tolls on hunts and freight going through the 'lo< ks,' both ways would easily pay the canal cost and operating expenses in ten years." The engineer proposed that the | work he done in the summer and estimated that it would take two or three summers, as there would be i great difficulty during cold weather. lie pointed out that from Lake Mich| igan boats could go into I*ake Calumet for an inner harbor, and if the Illinois drainage canal were changed j for boats, they could go thence to the i Mississippi river and down to the ! Gulf of Mexico. , ? Japan Importing Less Raw Materials Tokio, duly 8.?Of the goods imported into Japan in 1021, 40.9 per cent were raw materials; 20.1 per cent manufactured materials; 11 per cent manufactured goods; 8.2 percent provisions and 5 8 per cent manufactured provisions. This shows a considerable decrease in the percent of raw and manufactured materials and manufactured goods and an increase in manufactured provisions and machinery. I Oliver and Houghton Letter New York. July 28, 1922. Everyone of you know we changed our minds about cotton. We were mad, rip-snorting bulls all the way from 16c up to 23c. And we were not wisy-washy about it either! After we figure out a situation we take a positive stand and shout it from the house tops. Everybody knows this! During the second week of July we came to the conclusion that too many people were thinkm the same as we were. We said plainly in our Market Letter, No. 125, July 14th, that things didn't look just right to us and that we were suspicious. Remember it? For instance, consider our last Market Letter. It readied everyone last Monday. We literally begged everyone sell cotton. Onthat day Octobed sold at 22.10. Within 48 hours it was down 122 points to 20.88. Turn back to that letter and see for yourself! We kkow positively that hundreds folowed our advice and made many thousands of dollars, while still others at least sa\>d themselves from bad losses. We assume we are talking to plain, sensible business men, so let us get tight down to facts. When the last government r-epoit was issued indicating a crop of 11.065,000 bales, we said: "Watch now and see if the crop isn't nearer 12,000.000 bales!" Now. it seems most everyone is agreed that, it will be over 12.0oo.000 hales. If information is to help a man he must have it in advance not after its all over. This is true, isn't it? We say now cotton is going "till lower! It' v/e had you lure in this office we could explain clenvK certain things that would convince you of temporary lower prices. When a man is sich with fever he doesn't snap back in a ?iay. For four or five months this country, not to mention the rest of the world, has suffered from a bad cast of industrial fever. We might just as well look the truth straight in the eye. All the optimistic opinions of "Tin Captains of Industry' can't dispel the fact that the coal strike, the railroad strike and the mill <ttikes, are bound to hurt all lines ut' business sooner or later. As sure as fate we've got to again pass through the convale.ce.it stage, and its going to he hard plowing even before the winter has set in good. Every honest banker knows tins too! Merely hoping for higher prices for eotton or any other commodity won't produce profitable results. Strike settlement or no settlement? the damage has been done, and w?must now get well. But there is a good side to the situation so far as cotton is concerned. For a spell longer cotton should be sold only on every good rally. But keep this one fact in mind constantly ?when conditions do begin to right themselves?as they always have and always will?cotton is going to he the first to re.eoptui to the improvement. Why, do- yKr that this year's consumption of American cotton will be 13,000,000 bales against 10,">00,000 bales last year? -There just a n't. any cotton left anywhere?that's all! For ! this reason w.,. n the next good slump occurs our honest advice is to pick up a few contrai s. You can reduce prices, but you can't kill values. Right r.ow cotton po sosscs ample intrinsic value, but i' < n't withstand other deI pressing influences and will go lower J. S.
