serious power shortage developed
Only 40 per cent of the necessary pow

companies were forced to arrange
their shops so that they could use thu

ordinary New York rate would he
worth about $165 100000. This meant
an increase of 100000 horse power.
and the government agreed to assist in
financing the construction of the new
power plants.
When the armistice came these
plants were not completed, and there
was clause in the contracts where
by the government agreed to use pow
err for a certain length of time. In ad-
dition, the contracts bound the gov.
eminent to pay its proportion of the
cost of the plants on basis Of their
value three years after the signing Of
peace. In settling these power con-
tracts all these factors had to be con-
sidered. The technical committee
solved the problems in a manner
which was considered fair to all con-
cerned.
Rabbit Meat Problem.
In contrast to the power contracts
was the settlement of the rabbit-meat
claims. These arose from an excess
of patriotism and were not covered by
contracts. When food conservation
was being advertised as generally nee.
essary, public-spirited citizen OF
Hutchinson, Kan, received informa.
ton that the war department would
be glad to obtain supply of rabbit
meat for the men in training camps
History does not state just where the
Hutchinson man obtained this infor.
nation, but he made all speed for this
city and here obtained the financial
backing he needed.
Shortly afterward there began a
wholesale slaughter of rabbits in the
vicinity Of Hutchinson, Kan. Three
carloads Of ammunition arrived there
and was distributed to all those who
agreed to procure rabbits. A packing
plant was erected, and there ensueC
