cut of $4,000 feet of lumber from a
bunch of mixed logs, this being the

THAW IS EAGER
 TO TAKE STAND
Gruelling Cross-Examina- tion May Be Dividing
 Point In Trial

PHILADELPHIA, April 16.-- Harry Thaw is willing to match his wits against the famous lawyers op- posing his release and to stake his free dom on the result.
 The man who has been incarcerated in Kirkbrides Insane Asylum for seven long years is ready for the climax of his sanity trial, when he must face un- aided the gruelling cross-examination of two of yPhiladelphia's ablest trial lawyers. including the redoubtable Billy" Gray.
 "Ill beat them and prove I'm sane" Thaw said, looking up from voluminous papers with the quick smile which lights his pouchy. features when he talks. tOnce MT. Jerome Civilian Travers Jerome, former district at torney of New York) had me under cross-examination for three days. At the end of that time he quit. saying I was tired.s
 So while the trial dragged Wednes- day with succession of friends, phy- sicians, former guards, keepers, de- tectives and the old woman who tended the poultry on his mothers farm all testifying in his behalf, he puttered over his tlocumentsxrecords of pre- vious trials.
 Whether he appears Thursday, which is doubtful, or not until after the hold weekend recess, Thaw on Wednesday afternoon declared himself eager for the test.
 Billy Gray, with brilliant record for dynamic cross-examination, will take Thaw in hand after Judge John Patterson has put the millionaire on the stand, and with Thaw.s record dating back to before the tlaying of Stanford White before him, will en- deavor to force from Harry admissions which will cause the jury to refuse him freedom.
 At Gray's elbow, when this dramatic moment arrives, will be Evelyn Nesbit, former wife of the man on trial. She will proihpt Gray, who is representing the interests of her son Russell, on whose behalf she is seeking to block Thaw's release. She expects to pro- vide the attorney with hitherto un- known details of Thaw'e perversities and peculiarities. which may shatter the well prepared defense, and his counsel established through their alipnlSt.

monia and one-half in business admin istration, he added.
 Under the Ford and power com panies' bid. he said, the government would be contributing for the private pocket and under our bill, the govern ment would be working for our private pockets but the government would get back 75 per cent.
 What are you going to do with Muscle Shoals power" Chairman Nor ris asked.
 I've would use one-t third of the power at the Muscle Shoals properties, sell one-third to nearby farmers and the other third would be distributed among farmers" Hooker replied. The com mittee adjourned until 10 o'clock to- morrow with Hooker still on the stand.
 Burton Issues Statement
 At the opening of hearings on Muscle Shoals. Representative Burton, repub- lican, Ohio, issued a statement opposing the Ford bid.
 Describing the Ford proposal as ''an unprecedented monopoly" MT. Burton declared he had never heard of a pro- position in which privilege was granted to an individual or corpora tion which was so free from restriction, so broad and comprehensive so strong in the interest of the grantee as this Ford proposal"
 ''The difficulty in dealing with the so-called Ford proposal" the statement continues, ''lies in the fact that the main issue is completely masked be- hind a smoke screen, of doing some thing for the farmer. As a matter of fact neither the Ford corporation nor lany one else who may get Muscle Shoals, is going to make fertilizer there at loss. Mir. Ford is not going to make it unless he can make it at a profit. He has said so quite bluntly to the Secretary of War.
 "The real issue is the established policy of the United States relating to water power particularly as embodied in the water power act of 1920. The Ford offer either violates or ignores almost every provision of this act.
 Tt has been argued most strenuously that if the Ford corporation gets Mus cle Shoals it will greatly stimulate the industrial development of the south. As it is I honestly believe it will have exactly the contrary effect. Southern Alabama, North and South Carolina. Georgia, Mississippi and Tennessee will be benefited not at all.
 ''T believe that not alone the Senate but the American people will condemn the bill, It does not seem possible to me that it will become a law"

HOPE RENEWED
 FOR LETTERING SPRING STREET
City Refuses To Construct
 Sewerage System Until Sure Of Move

Hope for paving Spring street from Avenue E at Avondale park. for five or six blocks to First avenue, has been re- newed in municipal circles.
 Before the paving of Spring street can be seriously considered from standpoint other than the mere desire to pave it, the rain flood water from the Southside must be controlled, and how much money and engineering that will take remains to be seen.
 Commissioner W. E. Dickson stated Wednesday it was the desire of the city to pave Spring street. Commissioner w. l.. Harrison said the prospective $15,000 secured by the city in the ar engagements covering the Tidewater franchise changes makes the flood water control problem one of engineering, for the commission will be willing to use the money for the Avondale storm water drainage. City Engineer A. J. Hawkins said survey of the flood water situa- tion will be made soon, but until after the survey is made he could say nothing definite about the feasibility of the un- dertaking or it's cost.
 Spring stret has been a paving prob lem faced by the municipal engineering department of Avondale, when it was an independent community, and of the city since the making of Greater Bir- mingham. It has not been solved yet.
 Flood Water Trouble
 The trouble is this: Into South Fortieth stret from the Southside, when there are unusually heavy rains, there pours a flood of water from the hills that is of such volume at times it fills a ditch six feet wide and eight feet deep, overflows the ditch, covers the street from curb to curb. goes over the sidewalks and into the front yards of the property that abuts on Fortieth street, south.
 With the surfacing made permanent the flood water would be compounded and back up into stores and other property, it is believed.
 Two or three times each year For tieth street, south. and Spring street are snagged to "the bone" by flood waters. It is this problem that has been put up to Mir. Hawkins
 Whether the job would cost fifty or one hundred thousand dollars, the com missioners say the city will foot the bill, if it can be shown as a feasible. permanent improvement, but such will have to be shown, the survey made, the engineering work done, possible canals built before serious consideration will be given to modern permanent paving for Spring street.
