TAKE UP MEASURE
 ON WATER POWER
By Review Leased Wlre)

WASHINGTON. May 15.-Hearings on the administration bill, proposing eXtelsive development of waterways for power and irrigation began today before the special house water power committee with Secretary Baker and Houston urging changes in the meas ure sand its speedy enactment. The bill would create a water power con- mission to be composed of the secre- taries of war. agriculture and interior under which development would be di- rected.
 Secretary Baker urged a definite periCd for licensing corporations, leas- ing water power and irrigation rights; that leases be for a definite period, and that the amount of compensation to be paid private interests by the government when it takes over plants be fixed. The lease period suggested now is 30 years with the government retaining the option of renewing the lease or purchasing the property
 Secretary Houston also urged the changes in the original draft bill to make more specific references to com pensation to private corporations whel water power plants are taken over by the government, and he submitted an amendment under which licenses un- der the bill would be required to set aside an amortization reserve to be held until the termination of the lease or to be applied in the reduction of the net investment under the direction of the commission.
 Mir Houston said he did not believe it necessary to include in the measure a provision fixing rate of return on the investment of private interests in the development of power, declaring that such authority should be left to the commission.
 He also urged that the commission he given authority over all inland waterways and boundary waters.

AIR MAIL SERVICE IS INAUGURATED BY
 MILITARY AVIATORS
Daily Trips Except Sunday Planned; Trials Success; Flight from New York to Capital Made Quickly.
0Rv Revlew Leased yYirel

WASHINGTON, May 15.-Aerial mail service in the United States to- day became an accomplished fact.
 Piloted by army aviators, airplanes carried cOnsignments of mail from New York and Philadelphia to Wash ington and from Philadelphia to New York. A plane which started from the national capitol for Philadelphia in the presence of President Wilson and other government officials was forced to land at Waldorf. Md. 30 miles away because of a broken propellor.
 With the exception of Sunday, daily trips from each end of the New York Washington mail air route are planned by the postoffice department. Each machine will fly only half of the dis tance. the mail being transferred to different planes at Philadelphia. The mail on the machine which was forced down today will be sent out from Washington on the plane making to- mcrrow's regular trip.
 Fast Trip Made
 Three hours and 20 minutes after a machine piloted by Lieutenant Torey H. Webb. left the Belmont flying field near New York today. the mail it carried was landed in Washington, and within B minutes Boy Scouts had completed delivery of the 735 parcels consigned 10 Washington, including IS pieces for the White House, one for Vice President Marshall and a number for Postmaster General Burle- son.
 Opo of tho 1aftarc wac frOp, Gov ernor Whitman O. New York, ad- dressed to President Wilson and pledg- ing New York to do its part in the American Red Cross drive for S100.- 100000 war fund which begins next Monday.
 Besides the resident and Mrs. Will son, Postmaster General Burleson. Secretary Daniels, Assistant Secretary of the Navy Roosevelt, Assistant Post master General PTaeger and Dockery and Postmaster General Kamara of Japan, witnessed the departure of the mail plant from Washington. The president cancelled and autographed the aerial mail stamp on letter from Postmaster General Burleson to Post maste rPatton of New York. and the stamp will be auctioned of in New York for the benefit of the Red Cross.
 Use curtiss Planes
 Lieutenant George L. Boyle, former ly a Washington newspaper man. piloted the machine which carried $50 pounds of mail in a special compart- ment in the fuselage. The plans got away amid the applause of a big crowd which surrounded the field. gracefully circled around Potomac park and then headed for Philadelphia. The mishap occurred a short time af- terwards. but Lieutenant Boyle brought the plane down successfully. The mail planes are Curtiss military training machines an darmy aviators them are assigned to the work for experience in cross country flying. Postoffice officials said today that as the flyers become familiar with the air route the service will be speeded up and they eventually expect the trip to be made in less than three hours.
