all the world outside the United
States is opposed to discrimination.
But that estimate of The hague
tribunal does not seem just. 1t as
sumes that fairness is impossible as
against the weight of national in
terests. The United States can i'll
afford to set so low an appraisal on
the integrity and sincerity of that
great institution.
At any rate, we can as we'll sub
NIT to The Hague's arbitration, as
the rest of the world can afford to
submit to our decision. If the nations
represented at The Hague all have
economic interests adverse to our
own, it is also true that we have
economic interests adverse to theirs.
If The Hague court cannot be trusted
by us, why should we be trusted by
the nations in general? We have
adhered to the principle of The
Hague arbitration for just such cases
as this, and it would be broad, gener-
Gus, and inspiring now to stick by
our colors.
A piece of Congressional legisla-
ton, pounded out in the heat of fac
tional strife, on the anvil of PARTISAN
ship, with the hammers of conflict
ing interests, is not to be trusted
for a proper Interpretation Of such
contract as this which involves the
canal. The Hague tribunal is the
best bench thus far created in the
world for that appeal. To that bench
it should be taken.
After we know what our treaty
obligations-our moral obligations
are, then will be the right time to
consider our economic necessities. 1t
is utterly impossible to consider the
two together. We have no right to
weigh the economic consequences in
the same scale with the moral
aspects. Honest measure will never
be determined in that fashion. The
first thing to be settled. and to be
settled rightly and finally, is what
we have agreed to do under our
sacred treaties. When that is de-
cided, and not till then, we may feel
ourselves at liberty to consider the
economic aspects which remain
within our administrative discretion.
The Washington times., 1914-05-06
THEWATERPOWERBOOM

Government authorities are as
sured that a great reservoir OF capi-
tai is ready to be utilized in the
DEVELOPMENT of water powers IN all
parts of the country, whenever it
shall be certain that the Government
will adhere to a water power policy
that will be reasonably liberal with
investors. Such a program is be-
iieved to have been written into the
lending water power legislation re-
ported from the House Committee
on Interstate Commerce.
All over the country there is rapidly
increasing popular appreciation OF
the Importance and the vast posi-
bilities of water power. Especially
is its utilization for municipal pur-
poses now attracting attention. In
The Pacific States perhaps most
progress has been made in this
particular direction; but the South,
the midwest, and New England are
all active.
When a great city goes out into
the surrounding country, buys up
watersheds, builds aqueducts and
works in order to supply itself with
plenty of good water, it manifestly
meets an insistent public need. Cities
everywhere do this as a mere matter
of fact. Yet the same water in many
cases, the same general character of
engineering work, would also serve
to provide those cities with power.
Power is almost as vital a necessary
as water, standing as it does for
light, transportation, and industry.
Washington chances to be so stu
ated with relation to its water supply
that the development of larger water
resources can most easily be linked
with the DEVELOPMENT of power for
municipal uses. It would be a posi-
tive waste of money to go on with
a one-sided, onc-purpose expansion
of the plant that supplies the city
with water, when a modest addi-
tional expense would make that
water produce the city's electric
power as we'll as its water supply.
The problems of municipal eco
nomics are becoming more insistent
with every decade. Municipal ex-
penses, debts, and requirements grow
at marvellous rate in this time of
constantly expanding demands upon
the public administration. 1t is the
more necessary to introduce every
possible economy, and the utiliza-
ton Of such an opportunity as Wash
ington has in the Great Falls of the
Potomac would be a lesson to the
whole country as well as a great,
practical economy in the administra-
tion cf this city.
