	Opinion (Spotlight Weekly)
		On natural rivers navigation requires continued efforts to retaining the channel in predetermined course by stabilization of banks and bed, by elimination of side channels, and by easing major bends to obtain a channel of uniform cross section.
		On canalized rivers navigation is facilitated by constructing locks that create a series of steps, the length of which depends on the natural gradient of the valley and on the rise at each lock.
		These characteristics are the flow pattern, very gentle bed slope of the river, and the need to have very low height dams to raise the water levels.
