NEW YORK STATE
TO SELL POWER

II the voters of New York approve
certain little amendment to the con-
stitution their state will embark in
private enterprise III Il manner never
before attempted by any government,
here or abroad.
Briefly. they will empower the state
water supply commission To install a
great system of reservoirs in the
mountainous regions. impound billions
upon billions of gallons Of water that
go to waste in the spring freshets. and
sell this mighty volume Of stored en-
ergy for the generation Of electric en-
ergy to industrial plants that may be
a hundred miles away.
The approval of the amendment and
its ratification at the polls will Justify
the expenditure of millions of dollars
but it will insure the return in profits
of millions more: in addition it will
mean the announcement and increase
OF every form of business enterprise
employing power. the Identification of
waste places. and. above all. the fore
staliing of all monopoly in private
hands. Ii may seem like a long step
toward the state ownership of public
utilities. but it also means the avoid
