Approves Survey for New Port at Mon¬ tauk Point
Senate Committee Favors Immed¬ iate Developments at Fort Pond Bay
Following the announcement of the plan to utilize Montauk Point as a terminal for bjg ocean liners, news comes from Waahington today that a survey of Fort Pond Bay will be made promptly with a view to developing it into a great port of entry. This order will negative the Morgan scheme" for the extenaion of Nortb River piers.
Senator Depew's amendment to the pending River and Harbor bill, provid¬ ing for the survey, was adopted unani¬ mously yesterday by the Senate Com¬ mittee on Commerce. The committee voted to report in favoi; of immediate instructions to the army engineers to begin the survey. There is little doubt the Senate will adopt the report. An amendment similar to Depew's was of¬ fered in the House by Representativea Cocks. Concurrent approval Qf the project any day.
Experts familiar with conditions here could, not sanction the Morgan plan for berthing the new giant ships in the rjver because they were unwill¬ ing to declare expedient or safe the further restriction of the channel for navigation. It is believed the Harbor Line Board will definitely reject the Morgan petition on the ground that Montauk Point soon will afford all the facilities for docking required by the largest ships.-- Evening Journal, Thura- ! day.
