Paperback. Etat : New. Print on Demand. This book is a chronicle of the proceedings of the 17th convention of the National Rivers and Harbors Congress, held in Washington, D.C., in March 1922. It opens with speeches by various dignitaries, including the Assistant Secretary of the Navy and the French Ambassador, providing an overview of the political and economic context of the conference. The author highlights the significance of waterways in promoting industry and agriculture, as well as their role in the nation's defense. The text also discusses the impact of the recently concluded naval treaty on the country's shipbuilding industry, and the need for continued investment in domestic infrastructure projects to stimulate employment. The author argues that developing the nation's waterways and supporting domestic industries would strengthen the nation's position abroad, enabling it to promote trade and foster peace. By examining the ideas and insights presented at this convention, this book sheds light on the historical significance of waterways in the development of the United States, and the ongoing importance of transportation infrastructure to the country's economic and geopolitical standing.
