high-tension wires that would
stretch in every direction, bringing
to cities and towns the benefits OF
cost-price electricity, a boon to the
urban and rural dweller alike.
Inevitably, the Great Falls plant
would be linked with others cover
ing an area of coastal plain from
Boston to Washington, and rivalin5
the super-power belt of the Far
West which girdleS seven States.
Objections Raised.
There were many objections
raised formerly to the theoretical
establishment Of a great power
plant on the Potomac, owing to its
extremely variable flow. Project
after project was advanced and
modified until Congress came to
believe that army engineers were
simply becoming adopts at the
paper work Of their profession In
submitting impounding schemes to
them.
The Tyler plan meets all criti-
cisms of the fickleness of the big
stream. BY means Of the three
great storage reservoirs on Great
Cacapon river, the South branch
Of the Potomac and the North fork
Of the Shenandoah, sufficient re.
serve OF water would be maintained
to offset any depletion of the river
during the hot and dry months.
Overflow Gates Seen.
To act as check against the
floods and freshets which beset the
Potomac on occasion in early spring.
great gates for overflow would be
provided. "#
BY means Of these provisions the
flow would be seasonally steady, and
the minimum flow at the power dam
in the dryest period would be 6,OOO
cubic feet second, this assuming
load factor Of so per cent. or hair
the amount of water that the slu1ces
could accommodate.
, The engineering arrangements
have met with the full approval OF
the highest authorities among army
experts and those sitting on the Fed
eral Water Power Commission All
that remains is for Congress to au-
thorize a project that has drawn the
eyes of engineers for more than thir-
ty years.
Cheap Power In West.
Meanwhile, the people Of Wash
ington wait relief from top prices for
electricity. Out in California and
other points embraced by the far
West super-power belt. they cook,
wash and milk by electricity. Here
the height of the housewives am

Let the Power Commission say
the last word:
I'VE concur in the, conclusion
that, under plans similar to those
above revieWed''-the Taylor plans
-''hydroelectric energy may be
generated at and near Great Falls
and delivered at substations in
Washington at total costs varying
between Sc and 10 mills, and that
even the larger figure will, in view
of the present and probable future
cost OF coal, prove advantageous to
the public, whose obligation to pay
rates that will be remunerative to
the public utility companies justi.

enable it to escape the consequences

revived at this session. If 1t isnf.
it will be in time, and Washington
will have said good-by to private
electrical monopoiies and peak
prices.
Alternative Schemes.
Major Tyler, after exhaustive in
vestigation, submitted to MAJ. Gen.
Lansing r.. Beach, Chief or Engl-
neers, several alternative schemes.
The primary project would en-
brace dams at Chain Bridge and
above Great Falls, and storage
reservoirs on Great Cacepon river.
the north fork of. the Shenandoah
and the south bran ch of the 20
tomac. Others contemplate the
omission of the storage reservoirs
or one of the dams. In such case.
II would be necessary to provide
steam reserve plants.
Estimates Of costs OF structures
are based on material, labor and
TRANSFORMATION figures as of DeceTn-
her. 1920. Since that time, most ma
terial quotations have advanced,
TRANSPORTATION costs have gone up
in some instances, and labor costs,
except for highly skilled workers,
have declined.
Cost of Project.
should the entire project be .un-
dertaken, Major Tyler reckoned the
total capital cost at $44, 421sOOO.
Fixed annual charges would be as
follows: Interest, per cent, $685.
26O; depreciation, $684,2S1; sinking
fund, IL per cent compounded at 6
per cent?, $555,262: administration,
operation, maintenance and supplies,
$3.50 900: total annual cost, $4,534.-
500. The investment would be re-
turned in thirty years. The alter

low comparatively as SIS, sos, 900.
capital cost.
Now, let us see what this develop
ment in it's entirety would mean IN
the way of production.
The output OF all District plants,
private or Governmental, during
the fiscal year 1920 was 308, 593 ,593
kilowatt hours. The population of
washington has shrunk since then,
for thousands of persons who were
in the city between July 1, 1913,
and June 80, 1920, have now re-
turned to their homes.
The present consumption prob
ably exceeds the above figure little,
if any. I
Tyler's Estimates.
But at the switchboards of the
giant project outlined by Major
Tyler, 750, 1000, 900 kilowatt hours of
continuous power could be fur
nished in a year. Allowing a gen.
erous 10 per cent for loss in trans
mission, 675,O00,0O0 kilowatt hours
of continuous power could be de-
livered to the main substation in
Washington.
Major Tyler assumes an increased
power requirement of some 6 per
cent for the District for several
years to come. Thus, it may be
seen that for a long period this
delivery of 675,00O,O00 kilowatt
hours annually would be far more
than sufficient for the Capitalize
run it's street cars, light its great
public buildings, illuminate its
homes and streets, and for all other
purposes where power, light, and
even heat are called for.
What to do with the surplus?
A map appended to the report
demonstrates this in little, wavy
lines. They are the trails of the

time, except, perhaps, in the case
Of their own districts.
That explains why the Potomac
flows merrily from Cumberland,
Md, to Chesapeake Bay unfretted
by any impounding structure save
the modest aQueduct dam above
Great Falls, by which the Districts
water supply is diverted.
They call it economy" But it
is economy blind. 1t is the same
sort of economy which counselled
against digging the Panama Canal
because it would take $500, 000, 900.
AS a matter of fact, the harness
ing of the second greatest river in
the East would call, on estimates
contemplating the maximum de-
velopment for production Of sus-
tanned electrical energy for little
more than tenth OF the sum
primarily necessary for delving. the
isthmian ditch that cut thousands
OF miles from trade routes and
made the United States a first-class
naval power in the Pacific as we'll
as the Atlantic.
Must Come Up. =
Maybe the Great Falls project
won't be allowed to peep from
Legislative pigeon holes at the forth
coming stormy and crucial session
of Congress. But, sooner or later,
it will be put up and favorably
acted upon.
In that day, public ownership
of Americas stupendous hydro.
electric resources will have taken q
long step, forward. In that day,
Congress, so solicitOus over the pub
lie treasury, VIII know that thou
sands upon thousands are to be
saved the Federal government an
nually in Washington through dirt
cheap electricity. In that day,
citizens will be assured that prices
Of 10 cents a kilowatt hour, or s
cents, or 6 cents, for that matter,
have gone for. good.
The government not only will
have gone into the business of
furnishing the Capital energy for
lighting. heating and cooking at
rock-bottom costs, 1t will have be-
come salesman of current to cities
and hamlets within a radius of a
hundred miles, or more, of the
power source. With the passage Of
less than a generation, thanks to
this disposal Of excess current and
provision for amortization, it will
possess, free Of incumbrance, a
hydroelectric plant to which the
eye Of the nation will turn as a
model of industrial efficiency
erected by the people themselves.

the report is the recommendation that the Interstate Commerce Com mission be given authority to refuse permits to railroads to construct sid ings to new mines when there is no need, and that the secretary of the interior be given power to refuse the issuance of permits for the opening lf new mines on the public domain unless it is shown in hearing before the h. terstate Commerce Commission that such mine will serve the public. Here the coal commission is endeavor- ing to find a remedy for the curse of over-exploitation of the coal fields, which, perhaps, as much as any other one thing, has been productive of la bor trouble and all the evils that have followed in it's train"
 Thus it appears that the press is cordially appreciative of the endeavo:s of the commission and believes that the commission has acquitted itsele faithfully and honorably of a difficult and trying task. It has fulfilled it's duty under the law, and the rest of the burden rests upon the administra- ton and congress.

organization has contributed perhaps as much as any other to the safety of the country. When it is needed, the need is pressing, and for that very reason it's value in the protection of life and property and in the establish ment and maintenance of peace and order would be hard to overestimate, It sometimes seems that the public in ordinary times does not fully appre- ciate the influence and service of tke National Guard. But a reign of law lessness and disorder often causes an awakening.
 Time and again the National Guard has rendered service of incalculable value. At many times the organization has brought order out of chaos, and has prevented the spread of discon- certing conditions. For it's unselfish devotion to duty, often under dis couraging circumstances and despite unusual hardships, the National Guard deserves the gratitude and co-orera- tive support of all the people. The example set by the hundred business men of St. Paul might well be emu lated by public spirited citizens all over the country.

AS to Underwood Candidacy

To the Editor of The Herald:
 Thousands of Democrats in Ala bama, friends of both Senator Un- derwood and MT. McAdoo, are not going to agree with you two news paper editors in the very most un- fortunate issue you are raising editorially over Alabama's delega- ton to the next Democratic con vention. and I want to suggest that you fellows bridge the chasm, shake hands and assume a strict affirmative Alabama attitude in this most vital and important mat ter. both to Alabama and the ma ton. The Advertisers charge re- gardlng the activities of the Ala bama delegation on it's arrival at Baltimore in 1912, or at least some of its members, Is a serious one, and has no place being aired at this time. My regard and high re- spect for the Democratic citizenry of this state leads me to feel that selecting as we do, the very high est type for delegates to the con vention, there was little necessity for the action of the legislature in placing this authority in the hands of Senator Underwood.
 Alabama heads the list on the roll call; In political probity and adherence to instructions. her del egation will also head the list. At least, if you will pardon the suggestion, it Is your duty and mine, to make ourselves believe 1t anyhow. JNO. F. PEARSON.

THE NATIONAL GUARD

An interesting item recently pub lished in the local newspapers told of an agreement between hundred busi- ness men of St. Paul, Minnesota, in their desire to encourage and aid the National Guard. These citizens an- nounced that they would allow na- tional guardsmen, in their employ, fif- teen days annually, in addition to their regular vacations, during which to attend camp, without reduction of pay, to pay guardsmen while on active duty the difference between their regular wages and what they receive in na- tional guard pay, and, other things being equal, to give national guards men the preference among employees.
 Such an attitude will go far towards building up the efficiency of the Ma tional Guard the country over That

 What Spain suffers from chiefly is general public indifference to political life and to elementary and technical education. If the present insurrection should help gradually to bring peace in Mo rocco and should lead to fiscal-.u- adjustment. honesty in the con tralized bureaucratic government at Madrid, proper encourageme ent of agriculture. irrigation and road building and rational Legislation covering industrial relations, most Spaniards would have reason to look back upon 1t as a beneficial turning point. Separatist and se- cessionist movements in Spain can be checked and enumerated by measures extending local auton- omy and local initiative. The habit of some disaffected ele- ments of resorting to violence is the product of pessimism and de- spair.
