Preparations are alao under way to have the New Jersey leg islature authorise, the purchase or con demnation Of the land needed for. the project and It is believed that work will be begun sarly In ths spring. - Tbs canal would extend from Jersey City to Bayonne. It would be about One mile long, S00 feet wide and deep enough for the largest rrslght ships, tits ter minals probably will be used for dock purposes and it Is astlmated that the entire cost of the snglneering :. work would be no more than $160,000, which would make it the cheapest ship canal on record.
