SPECIAL PACT
BOHEMIA AND
OTHER NATIONS
W A SI 11 N< !T( IN, Sept 27.—A proj
ect In provide an Independent At
lantic port tor Switzerland. Bohemia
and other inland European nations, in -
order to render them economically ;
independent of Germany after tile
war, is receiving a great deal of at
tention in France and Switzerland, nc
cording to a report to the department
of commerce from Consul General G.
Bie Itavndal. at Nantes, France.
This project, the consul stales, has
aroused much interest at Nantes,
whose municipal authorities are con
ferring with commercial interests in
Switzerland with a view to combined
action. The business men of Lyons
also are said to tie watching the move
ment with deep interest, although they
have not yet joined it. The general
idea seems to lie to construct suit
tihle rail connections between the in
land production centers and one of
the Loire ports Nantes, St. Nazaire,
La Him hello or Bordeaux. It also is
considered possible that the project
may he forwarded by the construction
of canals linking up the Rhine and
Rhone rivers with the navigable lake
system of Switzerland.
Certain existing railroad are avail
able to form the backbone of such
construction. Fort facilities already
have been developed at several of the
ports because of war demands, and 1
railroad yards and warehouses ample ,
for the beginnings of such a project '
are available at both Nantes and St.
Nazaire.
It is thought that after the war the
American passenger and freight traf
fic with Centra! Europe, as well as
with France, will tend toward the
Loire ports 1n preference to the more
distant channel and North sea ports,
which, owing to the location and to
meteorological conditions, dispropor
tionately increase the cost of naviga
