"There are 027 acres of ground nt IIoj Island, of which 130 ncres have hern devoted to storage purposes. With eighty-two miles of railroad trarks and twenty-one miles of good roads, nil sur rounded by eleven miles of fence, it would nppear that Hog Island was am ply equipped for transformation into .1 free zone. "When it is further taken Into con sideration that there are veven piers, each 1000 feet long and 100 feet wide, witli ways and machinery for the load ing and unloading of ships nnd for building and repair work, added advan tages nre seen favoring the selection or this plnnt for n free zone."
