DECLARES PUBLIC
HAS BEEN MISLED
ON MUSCLE SHOALS
Engineer Says There Are
Many Other Potential Power

ATLANTA. Ca. May 1.-THE
public has been misled on the
Muscle Shoals development. c. c.
Adsit. director and executive en-
gineer Of the Georgia Railway and
Power Company. told the American
Society OF Mechanical Engineers in
its spring meeting here today. The
southeast, Mr. Adsit said. has many
undeveloped water-power sites
which can be developed On a COM
mercial basis TO a much better ad-
vantage than the development at

1T is distinctly a run-of-river
proposition. as no storage is created

continued Mr.. Adsit.
The greatest fuctuation in any
stream in the southeast probably
occurs in the Tennessee river. The
United States government. in plan
ming development at Muscle
Shoals, recognized this fact and con-
templated an installation Of 100000
kilowatts, only a portion OF which
can be depended upon for continu-
Gus power. According TO hydro
graphs Of the river at this point
the amount OF strictly primary pow
er at Muscle Shoals averages about
100. 900 horsepower, and even this
figure is based on the assistance Of
some steam capacity which must be
maintained.
1T is a source OF considerable re-
greet TO engineers who are familiar
with the Tennessee river 70 read in
the press Of the enormous amount
OF power allotted 10 Muscle Shoals
development, usually stated as l.
600. 900 horsepower. and the conse-
quent misleading OF the general.
public on this much discussed pro-
ject
The development has distinctly
a stream-fow characteristic. the
discharge Of the river varying wide
" from month 10 month. and more
markedly from year TO year. The
contemplated capacity Of 100000
kilowatts at Muscle Shoals could be
operated under full load only al

amount OF power except on an aver.

Mr.. Adsit showed photographs OF

different periods of years and added:
1T can be seen from these hydro

Milwaukee.-Wm. A. Garfield, candi-
date for the Republican nomination for
United States senator, speaking at
Livingston during days tour Of
Grant county yesterday, charged that
although Wisconsin is a tariff state,
Senator LaFollette has opposed all tar
if. Garfield said he would rather
maintain the Americn scale of prosper
ity than sink to the European stand
ards of living. Defining his own posi-
ton on the tariff, Garfield said:
"An American tariff policy ought to
secure to the farmers of this country
measure of protection as will enable
them to retain the American markets.
We want a tariff on American indus
tries such as will make possible the
payment to labor of a generous 'Ameri-
can wage and thereby enable labor to
pay reasonable price for the products
of the farm. We want tariff schedules
to be so adjusted as to provide rea-
sonable amount of revenue and to pro-
tect the manufactures of goods essen
tial to the country in time of war.
Finally tariff schedules should be so
arranged as to put the tax on luxuries
wherever possible"
