JOIN PENNSYLVANIA IN
 SUPPORT OF STATUTE
Mass, as State, Will Intervene Before Supreme Court on Water
 Power

Boston, Aug. 4.-After a conference with Phillip P. Wells, assistant attor- ney general of Pennsylvania, Atty Gen. Jay R. Benton has notified the Pennsylvania authorities that Massa- chusetts would join with them in in- tervening before the Supreme Court of the United States in support of the constitutionality of the Federal water power law.
 The legality of the foregoing law is being contested by the state of New York. The empire state contends that the waterpower within it's borders should be under the control of the state and not under the Jurisdiction of the Federal Waterpower Commission, which was created to enforce the pro- visions of the national waterpower law.
 Under the waterpower law Con gress gave the Federal Waterpower Commission control over all the nav igable rivers of the country. Since it's creation, the commission has insti- tuted 8. licensing system which in eff feet gives it control over the distribu- tion of electricity generated by the power plants on the rivers. New York has developed a large amount of wa terpower and according to some of the other states which have little power resources, it is attempting to monopo- lize 1t.

 wants to be adopted by wealthy American, a resident of New York preferably, for the purpose of extend ing the horizon of her chosen field, portrait painting. For the purpose of bringing her hopes before some pros pective foster parents, with the result, naturally, that she would lose her foreign citizenship, the baroness has placed the following advertisement in New York newspaper today: yT"Titled lady, whose artistic fame on the continent is well established, seeks social patrons and sponsor in ac- quiring select American clientele. Rec ognized position in American art circles already attained through suc- cessful exhibitions"
 personal friend of the titled lady who is assisting her in trying to find her American foster parents by placing her advertising said yes- terday that he could not at the pres ent time disclose her identity.
 That" he said, would be i'll ad- vised at the present time. The lady. and she is such by birth, wishes to be adopted by a refined and influential American family so that her great talents as a painter may find proper field for their expansion. She is of refined English birth, although she has passed most of her life on the continent. She is young Her husband, baron with recognized continental title, met his death in the great war. The baroness really possesses great talent as a painter. She has painted the portraits of a number of distinguished men and women in Flu rope. She has had a studio in New York for some time and has received several commissions for portraits, but to become a permanent factor in Am erican art she needs proper social pa tronage, and this, she feels, she can find through adoption

 Miss Mary Griswold was formally and unanimously elected to the posi- tion of superintendent of the Berlin schools at the meeting of the board held in the office of the town clerk last evening. Following the election there was an informal discussion of plans for the coming year. s
 Miss Griswold is now prepared to take over the reins as school head and is already planning work for the schools when they open in the fall She is conversant with conditions in the town and great deal is expected of her by the citizens. Her work in Hartford is well known. She was considered one of the most proficient eighth grade teachers in the state and she held one of the best positions in the Hartford school system.
 However, she accepted the call to her own town and has now been fully installed as superintendent. Her exact plans are not known, as she has not finished her program of activities.
 Pardon c. Hickey, vice-chairman of the board, stated this morning that the DOaTQ IS not COHSiuerillS puliuiiib any new buildings and has not let any contracts.
