On cross-examination Miss Shartell
said that in looking for the twenty-four
missing letters In the Office at Seattle
she confined her search to the official files

Parks she understood, had made

WOULD LIGHT CITY
BY WATER CURRENT
Huge Electric Plant at Great
Falls Proposed.

After careful study OF the report made
by two army engineers, Commissioner
Judson announced yesterday that Con-
gress viii be asked 10 make appropria-
tons for the preliminary steps toward
Harvesting the enormous water power at
Great Falls and driving II with the power
OF tremendous turbines. so that the
streets and avenues OF Washington could
be lighted by a plant owned by the Dis
trict taxpayers.
For the initial work OF surveying the
power field, the distribution Of water. and
the surrounding country, an appropriation
of $1,000 viii be necessary. The report
OF the army engineers says that electrical
power could easily be transmitted from
Great Falls To Washington. and that a
power canal around the falls can be
constructed at reasonable cost.
The report says there are available
6.2s5 horsepower without a storage OF
water above the falls in the Seneca
River, and s.64S horsepower with such
storage. while only Ass horsepower Is
required for present lighting purposes.
The first step in getting a survey is In
letter written by Commissioner Rudolph
10 Secretary Ballinger. requesting that
the Geological Survey be asked to make
the preliminary survey.

DISTRICT ORDERS
TUBERCULIN MILK
Tested Product Must Be Used
in Institutions.

That all milk purchased for institutions
under the District government must
hereafter be pasteurized or tuberculin
tested Is ordered by the Commissioners,
through Health Officer Woodward. Sew
eral institutions may have to go without
milk. especially IN cases of emergency.
In the case of the smallpox hospital
there are frequent times when milk has
to be purchased for patients in emer-
gency eases. and then there is not time
to see whether it is either tuberculin
tested or pasteurized.
VIII Prevent Tuberculosis.
DIR. Woodward has told the Commits
sioners that the only Institution TO be
affected by this order is the Soldiers and
Sailors Temporary Home. He further
states that the order viii go long way
toward preventing tuberculosis. at least
by infection through milk.
The Tuberculosis Hospital which orders
1900 gallons OF milk annually, gets the
product from dealers who contract TO
sell pasteuriZed and tubercuIin tested
milk, but despite this It is probable that
difficulty will be experienced in carrying
the order out to the letter. At the work
house at Occoquan the superintendent
is forced TO buy milk from any FARMER
who happens along
The Navy Department will issue an
order against the sale in the department
of any milk except such as has been
submitted to the tests prescribed by the
health department.
