tremendous possibilities of hydro-elec-
trio power. But the awakening has
come. In the state OF Georgia, the
League OF Municipalities has been con
Quoting a campaign for state hydro
electric development for several years.
In California the whole state Is
aroused and fighting for a measure al
most identical with the South Dakota
law, and the matter goes to referen-
DUN vote OF the people at the same
time that it does here, viz, on NOyem-
Der z. Even in New York state, a
movement led by the Mayors and City
Officials Of the State, is on for the
same measures. In California and
Georgia the farmers and farmer or
CARNATIONS are fighting as strenuous
~ as the cities for the measure be-
cause they realize they have as much
if not more to gain than they.
HydrO-electric development is the
peoples power of the future. It is
rapidly becoming a world movement.
And California may beat us to it unless
the people Of South Dakota go to the
polls on November 7 and vote for it.
There are 5000 homes in Winnepeg,
Manitoba, where electricity is used for
cooking, cleaning, washing, ironing,
etc. The city owns a hydrO-electric
plant and the rate for home uses is
only l cent a kilowatt hour. 1t is the
purpose Of the Initiated Law for ny
dro development to begin to get some
thing Of these advantages for the peo-
pie OF this state.
In Ontario, a farmer can have lights
in his house, and barn, operate his
dairy and light machinery at a cost
of $500 per year The state owns
and operates a hydro development
such as is proposed for South Dakota
in Initiated Law No. l. For the fun
particulars, address The State Hydro
Club, Mobridge, South Dakota.
The average bill for lighting homes
in Toronto under the state owned by
dro development is SO cents a month.

FLEXIBLE RATES
IN TARIFF BILL
GET OPPOSITION
Harding'S Recommendations
That President Be Given
Discretion Are DiSliked
By Farm Bloc.

Washington, Aug. 10 (by the AS
sociated Press. Flexible tariff
provisions designed to carry out
President Harding's recommenda-
ton to congress last December met
with such strong opposition today
in the senate that their fate in the
voting that must come tomorrow
under the unanimous consent
agreement, appeared to be in doubt.
1t seemed to be fairly certain that
before they could be approved they
would have to be modified to an
even greater extent than proposed
in a substitute for the original plan
reported today by the finance COM
mittee majority.
Practically all the democrats and
n number of republicans, including
Chairman Gooding and other lead
ers Of the agricultural-tariff bloc.
have indicated their opposition to
the provisions in any form, while
others on the majority side have
insisted upon sharp curtailmens
Of the broad authority the COM
mittee has proposed shall be given
to the president.
Under the committee substitute,
the chief executive would be au-
thorized to increase or decrease
tariff rates within radius of SO
per cent if investigation developed
that such action were necessary to
edualze "the differences in con-
ditions Of competition" in the prin-
cipal markets of the United States
as between domestic and imported
articles. Should a so per cent ad'
vance in rates be found to be in
sufficient for this purpose, the
president after investigation,
would be authorized to base duties
on the American wholesale selling
price instead Of the foreign selling
price and then to increase or de-
crease rates within a radius of so
per cent.
Restricts Presidents Powers.
Under notifications proposed by
the committee, the executive could
not transfer articles from the duti-
able list to the free list, or from
the free list to the dutiable list,
nor could he increase maximum
ad valorem duties written into the
bill, such as those on cotton goods
and cotton gloves. Also, in consid-
ering prices as factors in ascertain
ing the differences in conditions
of competition" he could allow
only reasonable" profits to be In
cluded In such prices.
Explaining provisions OF the COM
mittee substitute under which the
tariff commission would conduct
investigations and report to the
president, Senator McCumber said
these contained many features OF
the Frelinghuysen and other
scientific" tariff amendments. He
stated, however, that the commits
sion was not authorized to recon-
mend rates to the eXecutive; that
its function would be solely that
of gathering the facts.

tinued. "the committee thought 1t
