Windy City May Pass New York CHICAGO- (UP) The St Lawrence Seaway eventually should make Chicago larger than Now York City, according to Robert Kohl, president of the Midwest Steamship Agency Inc. “The only thing that mad€ New York the biggest city in tlucountry is that everything had to stop there,” he said. “Now there’ll be no reason to stop. We’ll come right to Chicago will imports and leave from here with Modwestcrn products for foreigr countries.” Even Chicago banks are advertising their foreign exchange departments. to let the small busi ness man in the Midwest know us bigger business can be transuded hear the home office. The small midwestorn business man will grow with the seaway, Kohl said, because it will eliminate the railroad freight and handling costs which had pre vented him from competing with the eastern trade. Great Lakes ship'ng interest.'■ dready are preparing to cant more tonnage. This year 10 shipping lines operated to foreign ports out of th*' Great Lakes, with about .300 sailings from the end of April to mid-November. That was double the number in operation in 1951. In 1952 there were six lines using the Lakes and in 1953 there were nine. The Midwest St e a m s h i p Agency reported many inquiries from other lines wanting to shin via the Great Lakes and the St Lawrence. Five lines now make regulai tuns from Chicago to Rrance, Belgium and Germany; three go to Scandinavian countries; threi to the United Kingdom; two to the Mediterranean area, and om to the Caribbean. Some of the 10 lines serve more than one area. The Ahhuann-Transcnribbean Line, which started sending it freighters from Chicago in 1953 carries between 1.500 and 1,806 ons of cargo on its regular i■unto Venezuela. More tonnage will move when Mie locks are fewer and bigger The present locks aie 258 fee; long and 42 feet wide. Under the new law authorizing the $105000.00 seaway projoet, the lookwould be 800 feet longhand 80 feet wide. But Adm. Lyndon Spencer, president <>f the Lnk-

I'ir!.* A*.-l*.. V-'l l«i d *. * V ' hey should be 900 f et long an - . at least 100 feet wide to hand: -hips large enough to com petwith eastern trade. There now are 30 locks between Montreal and Chicago tmaneuver through, each ship .mist be raised 581 feet above ser. level. The seaway project woulu reduce the numbe rof looks amF thus make transportation easie rnd faster. En route from Chi rgo to over;eas a freighter’s manifest show•d: from Chicago steel, ore. tractors, housewares, canned and dried meats, paints; from Milwaukee Milwaukee beer (on return it would bring Gennar beert; from Detroit autos an. automotive parts; trom Clove land glassware; from Toronto and Montreal Canadian whiskey. The lines also expect to in crease' passenger lists when tiv seaway is completed and bigge ships can move out of the 'Mid west. But even now, the freighters carry 12 passengers, with private cabins for each. The ship. ; have game rooms, ballrooms, barrooms and deck chairs just lik (he regular trans-ocoan passenger liners which put in at Nee York.
