WASHINGTON. Dec. 31.-John A.
Shafer, a civil engineer. Of Indiana
polls. has submitted TO the federal
water power commission. created by
the Water Power act of last June. a
gigantic water power scheme for
northern Indiana. He proposes to
divert the waters of the Kankakee
river through the Yellow river to
the TfppecanOe river.
The engineer seeks TO show that
II the waters of Kar kakee river
should be diverted TO the Yellow
river and through the Yellow river
10 the TippecanOe. the flow Of the
Yellow river would be reversed, just
below where the waters of the Kan
kakee river and the Yellow would
fall into the TippecanOe.
Shafer would have erected a huge
power dam. Power plants conduits
and transmission lines would be con-
structed and power would be fur

gineer says.
