U.S. railway interests block seaway WASHINGTON Plans for blocking construction of the St. Lawrence Seaway have been disclosed here by Gregory Prince, legal counsel of the Asso- ciation of American Railroads, and F. F. Estes of the U.S. National Coal Association. Appearing before’ the U.S. .for- eign relations committee on April 16, Prince was forced to admit that the interests he spoke for, the National St. Lawrence Project conference, was “financed 75 per- cent by the railroads.” He said that the conference would take the case to U.S. higher courts, up to the Supreme Court, in its efforts to block the St. Law- rence waterway-hydro project.

Lawrence will speak on the Clarence Clemens case and the fight against racial discrimination in Vancouver. Officers of the 1953 May Day Committee are John Hines, seere- tary; Les Walker, chairman; and Bill Stewart, vice-chairman. “We expect this May Day cele- bration will be one of the largest in recent years,” Hines told the Pacific Tribune. “Our slogans will call for policies that will. bring higher living standards, more jobs, protection of our civil liberties, peace and the end to American domination of our country.” month’s delay on the completion of the St. Lawrence Seaway is worth millions of dollars to them.” Twenty-five representatives of U.S. coal interests, shipping companies and chambers of commerce follow- ed Prince and Estes on the witness stand to oppose the seaway.
