Utilization of the Ohio-Mississippi Waterways: The Relation of the Ohio-Mississippi Waterways to Production and Industrial Development
Publication: Transactions of the American Society of Civil Engineers
Volume 89, Issue 1
Abstract
The proper utilization of the Ohio-Mississippi Waterways for transportation is rapidly becoming essential to the safeguarding of National prosperity and to the proper economic and industrial development of the United States. This is considered to be a fair statement because two distinct types of studies have indicated that these waterways afford a means of solving important industrial problems. This particular paper is confined to a description of these two fundamental studies and the relation of the Ohio-Mississippi route to them. The first was a war-time study of production which is equally applicable to the general problem of production, and it stresses a serious situation which is worthy of frequent re-statement from all angles.
