Hull's St. Lawrence Plan Senator Key Pittman, chairman of the senate foreign relations committee having of jurisdiction treaties, said the new proposals would not have a chance of ratification unless materially modified. Senators and representatives from the Middle West were especially aroused. Senator Clark of Missouri pointed out that the treaty would permit diversion of only 1.500 cubic feet of water per second into the Chicago drainage canal. He said the Mississippi river must receive more water than that from the canal in order to fill a nine-fochannel. Representative Claude Parsons of Illinois was even more emphatic in disapproval. "This proposed treaty," he said, is about the worst mistake Secretary Hull ever made. Under the terms of his proposal to set up an international commission for the Great Lakes-S- t. Lawrence basin, Canada would be given control over our Lake Michigan. Furthermore, the treaty would prohibit any further diversion of water from Lake Michigan at Chicago of more than 1,500 cubic feet per second. The Illinois and Mississippi rivers must have at least 5.000 c.f.s. to insure a dependable waterway."
