FOR SHIP SPACE
CTUCAOO. Reclamation of tho fore
shore on Luke Michigan In the Chicago
dlstiTct would provide nearly 101)
sqnaro' miles of hind for wharves,
warehouses and port facilities, accord
ing to a report submitted to city offic
ials" by Col. W. V. Judson, dlstricfcwni
department engineer. v
TheJ-eport calls attention to the fact
that ocean liners may dock at. Chi-
cago's wharves within tho next fifteen i
years If the Great Lakes-St. Lawrence
river channel projoct is carried out.
Such an outlet to the Atlantic would
connect Chicago with tho sea soutes of
the world. The coal .mines of southern
Illinois and the cotton belt of tho south
will feel tho touch of Chicago commer
cial' endeavor through an eight-foot
barge channel . to the Mississippi.
"Never before did it seem as fair to
point out In prophecy a region where
there "must: Inevitably and soon he
established the world's greatest port
facilities," the report says. -
' "The foreshore of Luke Michigan
fronting Chicago slopes very gently
lakeward," the report continues. "so
that the seven-faMioni contour Is four
miles off shore. This means that in
our submerged lands, all publicly own
ed, the Chicago district possesses pear
ls' a hundred square niUos any .part of
which It Is within the power of man to
raise Into land. This is in asset of al
most' incalculable value."
Reviewing the sections of Chicago's
lake front, Col.' Judson points out that
Lakes Wolf and tleorgo lie cIobo to
Lake Michigan on the Illinois-Indiana
line with six square' miles of marshy
land adjacent.' Thlii section "offers tho
greatest opportunity in all this region
for the creation .of wharf facilities or u
character, magnitude and location
suited to tbe demands ot tlio future,"
the report says. 1 . ",''
Cloneral plans for theso harbor facil
ities, ,Col. Judson said, have been ap
proved by the war department,'' which
Is charged with studying harbor condi
tions under the. Esch-CuminlnsMw. - ;
