REPAIRING

TAKES ACTION AFTER REPORT OF
PORT DEVELOPING
COMMITTEE
WIL DECIDE PROBABLE
TONNAGE FOR DISTRICT
One of Questions for Consideration is
Joint Water and Rail
Rates
Detroit, Mich., Jan.5.-A minute
study of Detroit from the standpoint
of a world port is to be made during
1922 by the Board of Commerce, fo-
lowing the report of the Port Develop-
ing committee of the board.
The report discusses all aspects of
the situation here, basing much of its
recommendation for study on the as-
sumption that at some future date the
St. Lawrence river will link the lakes
with the sea, thereby placing lake
ports on the path of ocean vessels.
Should Study From Three Sides
The committee urges that the board
study the problem from three sides,
namely the port of Detroit as a res-
ervoir, a funnel and a phase in a larg-
er complete movement involving all
movements from origin to destination.
The recommendation is made that a
close study be made of the domestic.
foreign and transit business that
might be carried on over the water
route.
"Detroit should be studied to de-
termine the proportion and probable
tonnage in full for the district," the
committee says. "The economic div-
ide for the hiterland trade should be
found and plans made to atract our
share of business on this side of the
divide.
Investigate Smaller Ports
"It would not be economical to de-
velon each port on the.lakes to the
standard of a port of foreign trade.
Many lake ports will be domestic In
scope, feeding the others. A study of
the business of the smaller ports in
Detroit's territory should be made to
determine the volume of slmnments
and their probable destination. It
should be borne In mind that goods
reaching the port by water will re-
quire different facilities for handling
than those arriving by rail.
"One of the most vital questions to
be considered is the matter of Joint
water and rail rates. Information a
to through rates from Inland plants
must be compiled. It must be mde
possible for shipments to be made
through the Port of Derot at favor-
able through rates. Other lake ports
must not be permitted to obtain lower
through rates.
Questions to be Studied
"Direct questions to be studied in-
clude the following:
"Maximum possible saving in time
and cost by shipping by water from
Detrotrinstead of by rail or land
transport.
"Consideration of the terminal as a
whole, with the rail and water trans
fer as one of the incidents involved.
This involves the study of existing and
ideal layout of rail fanoisties o
terminalwhich at present are not laid
out to assist transfer.
"Consideration of the merchandise
handled through this terminal, land
carriage and study of the proportion
which could be economically carried
part of its Journey by water.
"Total cost of present terminal ser-
vice both actual and as affecting
freight rates.
"Reservation of waterfront for wat-
erfront business.
"Location of rail terminals away
from the waterfront, thus releasng
waterfrontage for its natural use.
"Clearing and interchange between
rail and water and between water and
truck.
