I read with great interest your article on Aug. 11: ”Chicago: Port of cronyism.” The paragraph stating that no maritime professional sits on the board is true today and has been true for many years.

I have spent 37 years in the international transportation business, the last 25 in the Chicago area, and not once in my dealings with Chicago port personnel have I met anyone with an understanding of shipping economics.
