Part 4 of the hearing record continues an examination of the need to improve coal ports and port projects, specifically those on the East Coast, and the role of local and state governments and of private industry in this effort. The 13 witnesses include representatives of the Corps of Engineers and the Department of Commerce for the administration, private shipping and exporting concerns, and the Port Authorities of Virginia, New York and New Jersey, and the City of New York. Two witnesses from Canada testified on behalf of Canada Steamship Lines. The major legislative concern is the removal of obstacles to channel and shore preparation, which the administration would accomplish by reducing the federal role, and expediting modernization.
