MONOPOLY OF WATER POWER

President Roosevelt, in his
message vetoing the Standish
water power bill, called the atten-
ton Of the country to the fact that
a corporation was bent on monop-
olizing the great water powers of
the country. He said:
1.-THE people of the country are
threatened by monopoly far more
powerful, because in far closer
touch with their domestic and in
dustrial life than anything known
to our experience. A single gen.
Grafton will see the exhaustion of
our natural resources of oil and
gas, and such rise in the price of
coal, as will make the price of cleo
trically transmitted water power a
controlling factor in transporta-
ton, in manufacturing and in
household lighting and heating.
No grant of this kind should be
made except as it provides for
fee to secure title to the people
and for termination of the grant
or privilege at a definite time. L
will sign no bill granting a privi-
lege of this character which does
not contain the substance of these
conditions. l consider myself
bound, as far as exercise of my
executive power will allow, to do
for the people, in prevention of
monopoly of their resources. what
| believe they would do for them
selves, if they were in a position
to act"

YIDDISH SHAKESPEARE DEAD
Jacob Gordin's Brilliant Career Ends
After Long Illness.
Told Truth About the Jews, and Hia
Plays Were Sermons
20 Them.

New York. June u.-Jacob Gordin,
known throughout New York as the Yid-
dish Shakespeare, and famed as an au-
thor and playwright, died to-day at his
home In Brooklyn after an illness OF sew
eral months.
Jacob Gordin came to this country in
1891. He knew not a word OF English.
He knew Russian and Hebrew. but he did
not know the polygiot jargon OF New
York's East Side. Within a year he had
mastery OF the jargon which enabled
him to put into his plays every shade OF
meaning which would lift and twist and
thrill an audience OF his new neighbor.
Within three years he spoke English
purer than that OF most dwellers on Fifth
avenue. and with a power and elegance
OF diction that was a marvel 20 those who
met him.
Gordin had been an editor in Russia be-
fore he came 70 this country. He took
up newspaper work when he was twenty
years old. His blunt expression OF un-
pleasant truths made Il advisable for him
TO come TO America He did not curb his
bluntness here
Gordin plays were sermons for his own
people. He refused to lie to them about
themselves or about the Christians. There
was no need, he preached. why a good
Jew should not be proud OF the truth as
II stood between the believers OF both re-
ligions. This was the theme OF The
Truth" the drama which ne wrote on the
infelicity OF mixed marriages. II began as
screaming farce. The scene was the
front yard OF q double house at Arverne.
IN one-haif OF which lived a Christian
family and in the other hale q TavvfsL
family Every disagreeable and comic
trait OF either Jew or Christian which
could possibly crate was unspariagly pre-
sented.
Gordin was the dominant figure IN the
Grand street coffee house where the saEes
OF the East Side meet for philosophical
diversion. Massive OF height, with a great
moving gray beard and voice or strange
depth and intensity. there was always q
crowd gathered respectfully about any
