Proposal to Harness
Bay of Fundy Tides
Made by Engineers

WASHINGTON, Jan. 2S.-A pro-
posal to harness the tides of the Bay
of Fundy. between Nova Scotia and
New Brunswick, and create one of
the largest power projects in the
world, to supply industries in Maine
and eastern Canada, is being studied
by engineers of the Federal Power
commission, having been submitted
by Dexter n. Cooper. brother and
business associate of Hugh l.. Coop,
er. government hydraulic engineer
at Muscle Shoals.
Although it would involve millions
of dollars and take years to COM
plete, some of the features of the
proposal, as far as it has been exam
ined, are regarded as practicable by
the commissions experts.
The plan calls for the construction
of dams five miles long across Pas
semaQuoddy bay, on the internation-
al houndry, with a power plant sit
uated between upper and lower res
ervoirs having a development of ap-
proXimately 500, GOO horsepower. A
number Of gates would be installed
in the bay to release the great flood
tide into the upper pool and empty
the lower one at low tide. 1t was
estimated that a stream OF water
about the extent of Niagara would
be continually running through the
gates

DOHENY PREPARED TO DRAIN
RESERVE BY MANY WELLS

LOS ANGELES, Cal, Jan. %
Oil leases obtained by Edward l..
Doheny on government lands in
California, cancellation of which is
sought in a resolution before the
senate today, include approximately
fifty sections of what some geolo-
gists declare the richest oil land in
the state.
Lying abut 30 miles west of Bak
ersfield, the Doheny holdings en-
brace more than three -fourths of
the entire area known as naval re-
serve No. !. They cover forty three
and one-half square miles of terri
tory.
Three wells have been completed
on these 27,840 acres and are pro-
ducing a total Of approximately g.
600 barrels daily. Less than a dozen
of the 200 men employed in the
Elk Hills field by the Pan-Ameri-
can Petroleum company, for which
Mr.. Doheny obtained the leases,
are working on naval reserve No.

DANIELS DEFENDS POLICY;
SAYS HE OPPOSED LEASES

RALEIGH, n. c., Jan. 29.-(By
the Associated Press.)-Declaring
that during his term of office every
means had been used to preserve the
oil reserves of the navy for the ex-
elusive use of the navy and that
he had consistently refused to con.
slider any proposition which would
upset this policy. Josephus Daniels,
former secretary of the navy, Mon
day night replied to the assertion
made Monday by Representative
Lono,'--o"th. Republican, in the
house, in which he stated that the
policy followed by Mr. Daniels had
made ~,ssible the leasing of the oil
reserves.
Mr.. Daniels asserted "if Mr.
Longworth will read the testimony
and the record he will see that my
uniform and militant position was
to preserve the oil in the ground
for the exclusive use Of the navy"
He added that 'the leasing by the
present administration overturned
the policy I maintained"

Columbia Cecil B. De
Mile S Triumph"

The feature announced by Loew' 5
Columbia Theater for this week, be-
ginning this afternoon, is Cecil B. De
Miles Triumph Il society love
drama. 1t is a screen version of q
magazine story by May Edginton,
scenarized by Jeanie MACPHERSON and
enacted by Leatrice Joy, Rod La
Rocque, Victor Varconi, Charles Ogle,
Theodore Kosloff. Robert Edeson.
Julia Faye, George Fawcett. Spottis-
woode Aitken, Zasu Pitts, Raymond
Hatton, Alma Bennett and Jimmie
Adams.
Triumph" is claimed to be an eye
filling spectacle, dazzling in the beau
ty of it's costume effects and lavish in
it's settings. The story concerns two
men in opposite social spheres, each
suddenly brought face to face with
the problem of the other. In the one
case the wealthy man is suddenly
made penniless, while the other is
suddenly raised to great wealth and
responsibility. Mr.. De Mile works
out what he regards as the probable
effects, and also the part that d wom-
an plays in such affairs.
A fight between rival lovers in a
limousine going at ninety miles an
hour, great industrial plant in full
swing and daring fire and dream
sequence are incidents of the picture.
An Aesop's fable, the International
news and orchestral music will be
added attractions.
