resources could be developed were not
 then available. If it should be determined
 that there can be devlopd in this rgion inn
 provements which will provide depth of
 six feet through the reaches with a cer-
 tainty that by and by this may be in-
 creased to nine feet, then it will be urged that Congress would be justified in ap-
 propr1ating the money even though the
 amount be millions. whereby the naviga- tion of the Tennessee may be secured
 through long reaches which by reason of rapids have made navigation Impossible
 The engineers are inclined to the opinion that by the construction of dams and locks
 the river may be made navigable while at the same time this construction will fur nish stupendous power Some estimate that it may ultimately reach as high as the equivalent of 70o,Ooo horse power
 Some of the problems which must be
 worked out before the plan can be as- sured are more difficult than any which were presented either to the engineers or to the men of finance when the utilization of the energy of the Niagara river and later that of the St Lawrence river was under discussion. At Niagara, as at Mas sena Springs. there were only compara- lively simple engineering problems The
 men of invention in the field of electricity.
 and especially Nikola Tesla, had perfected apparatus which, great as 1t was, never theless was sure with economy to do the work. For instance MT. Westinghouse
 pointed to a turbine wheel, saying that it
 was capable of developing 5000 horse power in electric energy, converting the energy of Niagara river into that electric power
 and there were to be 10 or 15 of these tur- pines. But at Muscle Shoals along the Tennessee river there is among othel things to be considered a sufficiency Of water even in the dry season The Nj agara river and the St. Lawrence river
 never run dry. Then again, it would be necessary in some way to recoup the United States for financial advances, anC
 plan by which this may be done has beer partly worked out.
 | On the other hand the development of of the river and of the utilization of pow. l CT, is likely to result in the building o1 great manufacturing plants which vii | utilize the natural resources that are 1T the vicinity. There will also be a great op- | portunity for the manufacture of fertilz. CTS, and in such amount as to be of tho greatest benefit to the cotton industry oi | the south. The visit, therefore of the 1 representatives of the national govern. l ment to the Tennessee valley region may result in what in time will become the
 greatest power-producng section to bs | found anywhere cast of the Missssipp river, as well as opening reaches of the Tennessee river hitherto unavailable fol navigation purposes to vessels which draw not more than six feet.

HAVE NO STANDING
View of Commissioner Daniels
on Pledges by Railways
to Communities.
HEARING OF TESTIMONY
ON PLEA OF COMMUTERS
O. P. McCarty Of Baltimore and Ohio
Railroad Only Witness on
Stand Today.

Promises of railroads to communities OF
lower rates or even contracts for lower
rates in order to boost communities have
no standing in d rate case This was the
assertion made today by Interstate Com
merce Commissioner Daniels. who is TAX
ing testimony at the New Willard Hotel
in the case brought by the Metropolitan
Branch Commuters Association before the
interstate commerce commission to pre-
vent proposed increases in rates OH that
branch of the Baltimore and Ohio rail
road from going into effect.
Commissioner Daniels made his state
ment when counsel for the commuters
started line of questioning to show that
the rates now in effect had been made
to boost the communities and consequent
ly the railroads business.
"A community is entitled only to a
just and reasonable rate declared Com
missioner Daniels. in breaking off this
line of questioning. No contract would
prevent commuters from getting just
and reasonable rates. No contract would
entitle them to get any lower rates than
due. The settlement of rates is d ques-
tion of justice and reasonableness. and
not IA contractual one between shipper
and carrier
