KEOKUK DAM AND
BRIDGE IN CONGRESS
Both Are subject for Consideration OF
the Interstate Commerce
Commission.

WASHINGTON. Jan 29.-Unless
the Keokuk Dam Company, which
owns dam and bridge across the up
per Mississippi river between Keo-
kuk, Iowa, and Hamilton, ILL., makes
changes in both structures in accord
ance with suggestions made by the
house committee on interstate com
merce, a bill requiring that such
changes be made will be introduced
in the house by Representative Adam
son of Georgia, chairman of the com.
mittee. This statement was made by
Mr. Adamson today.
The company has agreed to enlarge
the bridge and make it available fol
public use. Mr.. Adamson has suggest
ed to Secretary of War Garrison that
one pier at Keokuk should be moved
west fifty feet in order to improve
navigation at that point. He believes
that the secretary will direct thai
this be done. II not, bill will BIZ
offered requiring that the change bs
made.

INVESTIGATION
OF KEOKUK DAM
Representative Rainey Starts Pro.
ceeding That Is Not opposed
by the Power Company.

WASHINGTON Jan. %. 9.-Represen-
tative Rainey of Illinois has intro
duced bill providing for a tax of 81
per horsepower from all water-pow en-
companies generating electrical
energy from plants in navigable
streams. In addition to this 81 horse
power tax, the bill provides that
Whenever the net profits of water
power companies exceed 12 per, cent
per annum, one-half of the excess
shall be paid to the federal govern
m ant. 81
Under the terms of the bill a munt-
cipality would have power to permit
private concern to distribute e,ec.
trical energy, but in that event the
municipal authorities would Ak the
rate to the consuming public. If the
rates were not reasonable, the con
sumers would elect new set OF
municipal officials.
Mr.. Ra;ney reintroduced his resolu
ton providing for an investigation
of the Keokuk and Hamilton Wate,
Power company, making it broad
enough to cover all of the companies
which are operating In conjunction
with that concern or in any way con
nected with the water-power projec,
