COMMISSION WOULD LIMIT
INHERITANCES TO ST, OOO,O 900
Some Members of Board Find Vast
Fortunes Contribute to Unrest.

Vast fortunes and lack OF work are
the chief causes of the prevalent indus
trial and social unrest In this country,
according TO the summaries Of three
reports given out by the United States
commission on Industrial relations,
which were prepared for the use of
congress.
The commission then vent out OF
existence. During the two years of
work none Of the members was able
to reach an agreement over the vital
problems, so that none of the three re-
ports can be properly called a MAORI
ty" report. The board was composed
OF three members representing employ
ees, three representing employers and
three representing the general public.
Only the first section of the principal
report, that made ny Basil l.. Manly,
director Of research and investigation
for the commission, has been made
public.
The Manly report finds that the so
cial unrest In this country is largely
due 30 the unequal distribution Of
wealth. IL recommends the enactment
of an inheritance tax so graded that,
while making generous provision for
the support of dependents and the edu-
cation of minor children, Il shall leave
no large accumulation OF wealth to
pass into the hands which had no
share in Its production.
In the belief that social and indus
trial unrest can be In a large measure
relieved by placing a million dollar
limit upon inheritances members Of the
commission favor the establishment of
n permanent industrial commission
which should be supported by the In
come derived from an inheritance tax
on large incomes.
1t is proposed TO graduate this tax
from l per cent on the excess OF a
$4,000 fortune TO 10 per cent on a
fortune OF more than S1.OO0.OOO. Other
provisions OF the report:
Warn against industrial princes
like the Rockefellers, Morgans, tricks,
Vanderbilts and Astors.
Urge the absolute right OF labor to
organize and the enactment OF nation
al eight hour and minimum wage laws.
Advocate a revision of land laws
and recommend litigation TO regain
public lands. water power and miner
al rights obtained by fraud.
Urge taxation OF no%nproductive land,
but exemption OF the improvements
thereon.
Urge an amendment to the constitu,
ton providing In specific terms against
encroachment on rights OF citizens tc
free speech, jury trial, to keep and
bear arms, to freedom from excessive
bail and from cruel and unusual pun
ishment.

HARNESS WATERS
IN GRAND CANYON
Six Dams to Be Built for Sew

Plants

Peach Springs, Ariz., Sept. 2.-The
project of Harvesting the gigantic
power of the Colorado River in the
vast depths of the Grand Canyon is
now to be reality. The U. S. Depart
ment of the Interior has granted per-
mission to the promoters to make the
preliminary surveys for the proposed
six dams that are to be built in the
canyon, also for the sites of the reser-
voirs and hydro-electric plants to be
constructed. ]. B. Grand, city engi-
neer of Phoenix, who conceived the
project, will have charge of the sur
veys.
The preliminary work will be fol-
lowed Immediately by the actual con-
struction Of the first of the series Of
big dams Many prominent Arizon-
ians are interested in the big venture.
Interests closely identified with the
Southern Pacific and the Santa Fe are
to finance the project. 1t is planned
to provide electric power for operating
the Arizona divisions of these two big
roads, the furnishing Of electrical en-
ergy for operating the machinery of
mines and industrial plants, and for
lighting systems of towns and cities
over a wide stretch of territory.
1t is said that the first dam will be
under construction by 1917. This will
be located just ncrth of Peach
Springs. The hydro-electric plant to
be installed will have capacity of
400, 900 horsepower. The first Gam, to
be located in what is known as "Dia-
mond Canyon" will develop 50,0C0
horsepower.
