That the present owners of the water
powers of the State have acquired
them by Legitimate purchase; that
many of these powers were never
owned by the State; that those which
at one time were owned by the State
and sold by it, having in many in
stances been resOld several times until
acquired by the present owners.
That instead of retarding develop
ment the owners of the water powers
of Maine have advanced development
along the most progressive lines that
by means of storage reservoirs the
constant power and the percentage of
development of several of the import
ant rivers of the State are superior to
any in the Country.
That already there is electric power
available for new industries and that
the large Power Companies of the
State can and will supply any self
supporting demand for power.
That if all the undeveloped water
powers in the State were, developed
and used exclusively to heat dwell
lings, the power would be insufficient
TO heat one-fourth of the dwellings III
the State.
That were it possible to heat our
dwellings by electric current, the cost
to the consumer would be prohlbl-
tive
That if electric current was distrlbut-
ed generally throughout the farming
districts, the cost to the State
would be prohibitiye.
That the people of the State will do
we'll to investigate the cost of develop
ment and the opportunity to dispose
of the product of development before
committing the State to policy
fraught with so many uncertainties.
