Gigantic Canadian Power Development

Three rapids in the st. Lawrence river
entirely in Canadian territory-the Cedars,
Cascades and Coteau are to be developed
for power purposes by an English syndi-
cate, the head of which is said to be Sir
Max Aitken, the young Canadian member
of the English parliament, who organized
the Canadian cement trust, The promoters
are about to incorporate a company with
an AUTHORIZED capital of 100000, 900,
with charter from the Dominion govern
ment. The scheme is supposed to be really
an enlarged merger of several companies
already interested in power enterprises
along the st, Lawrence above Montreal. At
present four companies have interests on
these rapids.
1t is believed here that English pro
moters hope to defeat the ambitious plans
Of the ST. Lawrence Power company,
which has for several years been seeking
for permission to dam the Canadian side
of the St. Lawrence river at the foot Of
the long Sault rapids, toward which the
Lauricr government was favorably dis
posed, but which the Opposition then
under the leadership of Mr., Borden, now
prime minister, resolutely opposed The
St Lawrence company holds a charter from
the state of New York for damming the
part of the St. Lawrence in New York at
that point and has already big power
plant near Massena, n. Y, controlled by
the Aluminium company of America.
