Aren‘t there any such things as iceâ€"breakers? â€" Haven‘t you tugs in Toronto harbour and a steel plant at Hamilton? It‘d take, the man from the North said, maybe twentyâ€"four houws in a pinch to put good stiff sheetâ€"stedl ice armor and a ram on every tug in Toâ€" ronto and Hamilton. It‘d take maybe six hours more to get them across the lake and at work on tue :ce in the river mouth, breaking it, channelling it, werking upâ€"river cutting it Away from the end where it‘s weakest, and keepâ€" inz it moving. And they‘ve had a week. It‘d take maybe a couple of hundred shots of dynamite, maybe more to make any sort of dint in the top end of the jam where it‘s thickest. But a couple of thousand shot wouldn‘t ctst any fifteen million dollars. Mayâ€" be fifteen thousand, he said. What you got there? ... It was a pilece from the paper about Provincial Secretary Nizon saying he agreed with Viceâ€"Chairman Houek of Hydro Commission that there was no use trying to dynamite the jam below Queenston because it was feet thick. The man from the North read it. Then he said humph. And here, the man frem the North said, between the jams in the gorge and the jam in the lower river is the Qusenstcon plant. Right here on the river bank, he said, where it‘ll be squashed like a Christy under a fat man if the lower jam doesnt. g'lve when the upper jams come down. / Lock at that and tell me this, the man from the North said. As a part cwner of that power plant, does it seem to you or doesn‘t it, that the thing to be doing right now is to be doing all you can to fix it so the lower jJam will give?

Losk here, he said, here‘s the big iceâ€"jam with the broken ibridge stuck in it right here below the falls. Here‘s another big jam down the gorge next the whirlpool. Here‘s the Erie end of the river with a lakeful of ice beyond ready to come down the next time the frost lets up and the wind shifts to the south.
