RUMORS HEARD ON
 WATER POWER PLANS
Being Stated That General Electric Company of New York Is
 Behind Project

That the General Electric company of New York was the working power behind the proposed water power de- velopments in this state, or at least a majority of these developments, was an interesting sidelight thrown upon the water power situation yesterday. It is stated that the General Electric Is furnishing the money for the deyel- opments here and elsewhere in the south and that the magnitude of the proposed development has not been even grasped by anyone in the state.
 It Is generally believed that the United States has been apportioned by the Western Electric and the General Electric companies for water power de- velopments, one company not interfer- ing with the territory assigned to the other In that way costs are kept down as well as competition
 The water power schemes in this state are expected to come to the sur face during the next few weeks. Here tofore only the barest details have been given to the public
