II so. how is Secretary Lane feeling
about il?
The Adamson bill agrees with the
Lane-Ferris bill on water powers, about
as closely as the President and the
Secretary of State agree on woman SUI
frage.
The Lane-Ferris bill represents the
program worked out by the conserva-
tionists. through wears of effort: a pro-
gram through which they have hoped to
get such control as would curb the
domination Of the hydro-electric power
trust.
Secretary Lane regarded that meas
ure as of the very greatest Importance.
Put the Adamson bill came from the
Interstate Commerce Committee and got
TO the floor II was altogether differ
ent Jrd was shot full of holes curing
the discussion of July /. Then a media
ton conference was arranged in ef-
fort 70 reconcile the differences. Last
Morda, the President said. at the news
paper conference, that the questions in
contrOv ersy would be harmontzed, and
II was thought the Adamson bill would
be largely rewritten. II looked as II
conservation had won.
But the reorEanIZed AdamSOn Dill hpes
not bear out that expectation according
10 the conservation leaders. They
charge that they have been double
crossed, and they protest that the Pres
ident is not in favor Of the bill whose
passage is now sought. They declare
further that IL he had consented to il,
he has done so under misapprehension
of its meaning.
1t is charged. with circumstantial de
tail that .gome time before the origi-
nal Adamson bill was introduced, water
power lobbyists showed drafts of mea-
sures they favored; that when the
Adamson bill later appeared. many of
its sections were identical. in whole or
in part. with provisions from these
measures that the lobby had framed
and, finally, that despite the reorganiZa :
tion Of the AdamsOn measure. some of
these provisions are still in ii.
One of Lobby Clauses.
One Of :hese, il was pointed out to-
day, is the provision that the grant
should be for fifty years. from and
after the completion of the dam de
scribed in the original approval. and
after the expiration of said fifty years
such rights shall continue until COM
pensation has been made to said grantee

This would mean an indeterminate
grant, for it would make very indef-

Georgia Supreme Court
Hears Franks Appeal

ATLANTA. July 21.-The first of two
appeals in behalf OF Leo NJ. Frank.
convicted of the murder of Mary Fha-
gan, was argued before the supreme
court. This is the bill of exceptions
to Judge Hills denial of the extraordi-
nary motion for a new trial. The ex-
traordinary motion. alleged newl, dis
covered evidence
Franks attorneys emphasized the
charge of prejudice and excitement of
the trial court. Attorney General Grice
declared that the points raised for
Frank have been settled by the su-
preme courts first decision.
The other appeal is that which in
wolves the motion to set aside the jury s
verdict because he was not in court

mite the time when the fifty-year peri
Cd began. Moreover. at the end OF
the grant II IL were ever reached
there would be n fine chance of Iiti-
cation over the meaning of fair
value"
No compensation is secured to the
public for use of the powers. The chief
Of engineers has admitted this: yet the
consensus of matured opinion among
conservationists and especially among
those who fear the aggressions of the
Water Power trust. is that a reasonable
compensation should be eXacted for the
Government. Moreover. there is de-
clared to be no definite termination of
the grant at the end Of fifty years ex-
cept as Congress may decide: which.
taken together with the provision re-
garding compensation, makes the meas
ure in some ways more objectionahle
grant
~, re is no clear provision for re2ula-
tion of electric current after II becomes
interstate current: critics of the meas
ure say the section that presumes to
cover this ground fails.
No Rate Regulation.
Most remarkable of all, say the anti
trust critics. this bill does not provide
for authority to regulate rates. control
capitalization. or examine books and
papers. In view of the fact that the
Commissioner Of Corporations has tNsti-
fed after investigation that ten power
interests. most of them closely inter-
related. control 65 per cent Of the de-
veloped power in the whole country. this
omission is regarded as most remark
able.
CONGRESSMAN Ferris. who is spon-
sor for the measure that Secretary Lane
wants passed. declared that this bill,
poorly arranged as | believe. and lack
ing in almost every detail OF what a
water power bill should be, will not
come here and pass this House without
the House knowing what ii means and
where il comes from.
There was a disagreeable accent on
the last phrase. where il comes from. y"
Congressman Lenroot who. though a
Republican. is an ardent supporter of
the ane measure. declared that the
Adamson measure was piece of legis-
lation that nothing in the halcyon days
Of Camnon-AIdrich control even APP
preached
The fight is on. and wide open.
