ITnderwood's influence won the VlctoTN
for the bin, many Democratic members
openly rebelling against the legisla-
ton.
Mr.. Underwood contended that the

the rivers Of the country save as To
navigation He held the state alone
was in control of the power lying Ia
tent in the stream and that the nation
al government had no jurisdiction over
running water. Questioning that a
water Power Trust existed, he ad-
vocated the imposition of an excise
tax on corporations that might COM
pose such a trust as means of eXer-
cising control.
The argument of Mr.. Underwood was
combatted sharply by Representatives
shirley OF Kentucky, Foster and Rain
ey of Illinois, and other Democrats
The measure had already passed the
