LETTERS TO THE EDITOR
Don't Give Away The Water Power
April 10, 1916.

Mr.. O, r. Bennett,
Editor, The Journal,
Manchester, VT.
My dear Mr.. Bennett
The Ubiquitous Shields bill, giving
away the watcr-pcwcrs on our navi-
gable streams, about which wrote
you on February IS, has been driven
through the Senate, but il has not
passed the House. There is still a
good chance not only to stop this raid
on public property, but to pass fair
and honest waterpower bill in its
place.
Everything | said about the Shields
bill in my letter to you was confirmed
in the debate. According to its own
supporters, this bin turns over to the
power interests waterpower equivalent
to twice the mechanical power OF
every kind now used in the United
States. or enough 10 meet the needs Of

the House and the bad bin from the
Senate will go TO conference, and the
differences will be adjusted by the
conferees The managers of the wat

jority Of the conferees will be friendly
to them, and will report a bill in their
interest They will then try to rush
the conference bin through, probably
in the confused and crowded final
hours Of the session. Such a plan has
often served the special interests in
the past, and il is dangerous now.
During the debate on the Shields
bill, this course was openly advised.
There was under discussion an amend
ment giving preference to the appl-
cant for a public waterpower who Of
fers the best terms to the public. One
of the supporters of the Shields bill, !
Senator Nelson Of Minnesota, after re-
ferring to the amendment as bad and
vicious went on to say; at is some
thing that we can eliminate in confer
ence. We might let it go in and
then dispose of it in conference"
Congressional Record, March s, 1916,
page 4285l.
We can beat this plan cnly by testing

the power interests have set out to
prevent by confusing the public mind
with interested statements and per-
sonal attacks.
| am asking for your help once more
to get the House to pass good bill,
and then to stand by it, no matter
what the conferees may do. II the
House stands firm, the people will win
this fight But the House needs to
know that the people are behind it.
Let me call your attention again to
the Ferris bill, a good bill dealing with
waterpower on public lands and Ma
tional Forests, which has twice passed
the House. An undesirable substitute,
the Myers bill, now before the Senate
gives the public waterpowers away in
perpetulty. Undef IL, the power inter-
asts could occupy and exploit the
Grand Canyon itself, the greatest nat
iral wonder on this continent.
The waterpower interests want
everything or nothing. In the last
light years they have killed eight

we're fair both to the corporations and

bile terms without further delay.

FOOD TROUBLES COMING,
SAYS GERMAN OFFICIALS

BERLIN, via London, December 30
A circular has been issued by Adolph
7. Won Batoclzi. president of the food
regulation board, TO the federal board
to the federated governments, in which
il is pointed out that next year gem
orally there win be difficulties in the
way Of the governments supplying food
for the people. Even the end of the
war says Herr Won Batocki. would only
bring 4 slight change in the situation
at first, because the scarcity of food is
world wide.
Owing TO n shortage IN laborers, work
animals, foodstuffs, fertilizers and
transportation facilities, cities and in
dusfrial communities will be compelled
to keep careful watch over the food
problem. The system Of fixing maxi
mum prices and pre-empting comrnodi-
ties for public consumption, says Herr
Won Batocki, has only worked well as
regards grain. 1t has proved a failure
with perishable commodities and hence
he advises municipalities TO proceed on
a larger basis than previously in their
placing of contracts with producers for
the future delivery of meat, vegetables,
milk, butter and cheese.

scented to Lieut.. Col Stephan. and he
lost no time in naming the things han
died at the exchange FOR which call
is greatest. First he mentioned tobacco
and candy, and then such toilet articles
as tooth paste, shaving soap and towels.
The exchange sells dozens of handker-
chiefs to the men, so this article ALSO
was added to the list. Matches and
pencils were other additions.
The "a cents which the citizens of
Washington raised to buy presents for
the District militiamen in camp here
was ample to provide substantial bag

received goods which would have cost

issued the articles and kept check on
the filing of the packages. In the case
of a company having total enroll
ment of eighty men the first thing
done was to count out eighty paper
bags. Then these were opened and set
in rows so that they could be filed
readily. Eighty big bath towels then
were issued. Each one of these was
folded and placed in the bottom of one
Of the bags. Next came the box OF
candy, then the toilet articles, cigar
cites, matches. pencil and smoking
tobacco and last of all came the two
cigars each man received. As soon as

After all the packages had been pre-

company reported at the santa Claus
storehouse,'' as it was called by the
soldiers, and carried the packages to
the various company mess halls. where
they were cared for until the time came
to distribute them yesterday, Christmas
morning. Practically all OF the men
received their gifts yesterday morning.
but several OF the company commands
waited until Christmas dinner was
served in the middle Of the day before
handing the packages to the men.
