Raps the Big Concerns IN
Their Efforts to Grab Water
Power of the Country

WASHINGTON. D. q. Jan. ls-
President Roosevelt has sent the foi7
lowing veto message to congress:
To the House of Representatives:
81 return herewith without my APP
proya4 House Bill 1907 to author
lie William H. Standish to construct
a dam across James River, in Stone
county. NO.. and divert portion of
its waters through a tunnel into the
said river again to create electric
power. Ny reasons for not signing
the bfll are:
The bin gives to the grantee a
valuable privilege, which by It's very
nature is monopoistic, and does not
contain the conditions essential to
protect the public interest"
The President refers to his veto
message, returning a House bin in
reference to the construction of a
dam across Rainy River and says
that when the public welfare is in
yolved, Congress should resolve any
reasonable doubt as to It's legislative
power in favor of the people and
against the seekers for special
privilege.
my reason for believing that the
Federal Government, in granting a
license to dam a navigable river. has
the power to impose any conditions
it finds necessary to protect the pub
lie, including charge and a limita-
tion of the time, is that its consent
Is legally essential to an enterprise
OF this character. 1T follows that
Congress can impose conditions up
on its consent.
"The authority Of Congress in this
matter was asserted by Secretary
Taft on April II. 1908, in his re-
port on Senator Newland's Inland
Waterways Commission bill Is. 5O0)
where he said:
In the execution of any project
and as incidental to and inseparably
connected with the Improvement OF
navigation, the power of Congress ex
tends to the regulation o fthe use
and development of the waters for
purposes subsidiary to navigation
.'And by the SollcitorlGeneral in
memorandum prepared after care

Believing that the National Gov
eminent has this power, / am con-
WINGED that its power ought to be
exercised. The people of the coun-
try are threatened by monopoly fai
more powerful, because in far closer
touch with their domestic and indus
trial life, than anything known to our
experience. "A single generation will
see the exhaustion OF our natural re.
sources of oil and gas and such a
rise in the price OF coal as will make
the price OF electrically transmitted
water power a controlling factor in
.rensportation, in manufacturing,
and in household lighting and heat
ing. Our water power alone, If full
ly developed and wisely used. is
probably sufficient for our present
transportation, Industrial. municipal
and domestic needs. Most of 1t is

or state control.

sources, would be an act of folly. Ii
