should be able 10 dredge and deepen
and straighten the Mississippi river
to st. Louis. and the Missouri river to
Kansas City. sufficiently to admit the
free and unobstructed passage OF
ocean liners TO the very center of the
industrial and fruitful West.
"As to the third billion saved: For
some time past a great electrical SUI
perpOwer system has been advocated,
extending from Boston to Washing
ton, connecting with the bituminous
coal mines of Virginia, the anthracite
fields of Pennsylvania, and the
sources of water power available at
Niagara and in the lower reaches of
the st. Lawrence river. 1t is esti-
mated that 100000 horse power may
be developed on that part of the st.
Lawrence river between Lake Ontario
and Montreal constituting the interna-
tional boundary between that part of
New York state and Canada, one-half
of which power would belong to the
United States.
. "The following is the proposition in
a nutshell: Great hydrO-electric pow.
or stations are to be built on the st
Lawrence and in the bituminOus Goa

GERMAN REVOLT
GERMAN GOVERNMENT FIRM IN
PUTTING DOWN THE CON-
MUNISTS.
SITUATION WELL IN HAND
Rioters Take Advantage Of Nations
Troubles To Foment Revolution
Soviet Republic Is
Planned.

Berlin-The Communist outbreaks
in the industrial centers of Germany
and the concerted attempt by the
German Bolshevists to provoke gen.
eral strike throughout the country are
viewed by the government as an I'M
mistakable symptom of plot, direct
ly traceable to Moscow. The estab-
lishment of a German Soviet republic
is their goal, a government spokesman
charged.
With regard to the evidence the
government could adduce TO support
his convictions, Herr Severing, Prus-
sian minister of the interior. said:
I'VE base our belief on unimpeacha-
bic circumstantial evidence in our
possession, and also point TO the public
utterances of accredited Communisuc
/ leaders. who openly designate the
| present period. when Germany is sore
| " tried with problems growing out OF
| the entente's invasion in the West and
| the Upper Silesian situation. as the
most opportune movement for re
| volt.
THE German Communist party
takes its orders from Moscow, and one
need only follow the manifestos daily
appearing in its official organs to 10
cate the fountanhead of this inquiry.
The riotiRg in the Saxon province
the minister added, was also produc
tive of tangible evidence of the com
plicity of Soviet agents in the lnstlSa
ton of the present disturbances. H
said he strongly suspected, however
that the cue for the present insured
ton miscarried, and that the sigma
found the extremist, elsewhere than i
Prussian Saxony disinclined to Jol
the movement or timid abont acting.
"The impending collapse OF tn
present coup and the fact that it no.
ia lapsing into plain outlawry,' col
tinued Herr Severing, must prove Il
l opportunely embarrassing to IN
!, Moscow government, which is seekin
the re-establishment of diplomatic an
trade relations with the United State
England and other countries, at u
very moment that accredited emlss
: ries of Sovietism are attempting
y establish Bolshevism in Germany wi
!. the aid of pillse, destruction and
