Washington DC, September 19 1918 My conception of the future of the New York Barge Canal and the waterways is that the companies operating on them shall pick up and deliver at the every important terminal point by lines which shall radiate out by motor trucks from 50 to 100 miles. And they shall take from these places goods, thus brought to their station so that if when, for example, they were. delivering goods from Kentucky to Illinois, it might start from a farm or from an inland village by motor truck and go to the nearest waterway station there to pick to be picked up by motor trucks, which would carry it to its destination and it should be billed through by one bill of lading that. would definitely establish that the vehicles and highways are not accidental or incidental, but at essential factor that it seems to me is what we're coming to before very long. I imagine we will come to it almost before we think of it. The word incidental as used in line 13 means a episodic B minor C. Parallel D related.
