Electricity Users
Show Prosperity
All Records for Use of
White Power are
Broken

Each monthly re-
port issued from the department OF
the interior on the production of cleo
trio power presents unmistakable evil
dence OF the increasing prosperity OF
the country declares Director G. o.
Smith, OF the geological survey. He
adds: "The year 1924 has begun with
an average daily production of cleo
Ffricity by pubic utility power plants
exceeding all previous records. The
l67 million kilowatt hours, which was
the average daily output in January,
represents the energy equivalent OF the
wok of 250 million men for an eight
hour day There power statistics,
which have ben collected by the geo.
logical survey since 1919, are the re-
suit of monthly returns from some
$500 stations, so that totals are avail
able for every state, an dis it clear
that they offer one OF the most sem
sitive and valuable indicators of busi-
ness.
THE use OF the electrical power
furnished by the public utility plants
DR.. Smith stated, SIS increasing by
leaps and bounds. and apparently will
continue TO increase at a rapid rate.
This rapid increase in the use of cleo
tricity has been caused in part by coal
famines brought about by strikes and
blockades Industry has learned that
it is much easier and also cheaper in
practically all cases to obtain power
by pulling a switf than it is to opcr-
ate s;eam-power plant. The records
for New York and New England show
that the capacity of prime movers
in manufacturing plants has reached
a maximum and that power for manu-
featuring plants will more and more
be furnished by electric public utili-
ties"

Z. {. Sheppard OF Boise, forest
supervisor, spent Monday in Caldwell
MIR. Sheppard is arousing local in
terest in the project which would in
clude the Boise basin timber territory
IN one OF the national forests. He dis
cussed with J. J. Rae, Caldwell school

AGEOPR|S0NER
NOT NEAR DEATH
McLennan Rallies From
Serious Illness
Quickly

Kenneth McLennan OF Nampa. 7S
years OF age and convicted murderer
OF Charles Sheellabarger OF Nampa
is reported to be recovering from a
serious steptococcus infection by DR.
R. c. Young. assistant county physi-
cian Hovering between life and
death. the aged former railroad yard
watchman was taken to local hospital
Saturday Between Saturday and
Monday, howver. the infection in his
throat and began discharging so that
DR.. Young is confident that recovery
is now certain.
This throat disease which threatened
McLennan's life has found a ready
victim in every Canyon county pri-
soner, according to DR.. Young. I'm
sanitary conditions in the county Jail
and the fact that isolation was inn
possible aided in spreading the di-
sease among prisoners. Mos, OF those
ilarceratcd in the county jail are young
men and rallied quickly from the di-
soasc although several were critically
il for brief periods, according to DIR.
Young. At one time, diphtheria was
feared but laboratory tests showed
only ssreptococcus infection.
Mc1cnnan is awaiting the outcome
OF supreme court appeal OF his case.
He was convicted in the district court
here last May and sentenced by Judge
Ed. L. Bryan to imprisonment OF
from 20 years to life. McLennan has
stoutely maintained his innocence.

Southern Team
To Debate Here
Southern California to
Meet Coyotes Tonight
at College

College OF Idaho will meet the Uni
versity OF Southern California in the
asst intercollegiate debate OF the year
Tuesday evening April 8 at S;erry hall
rhe subject for debate is Resolved
that the United States should enter
the World Court with the Harding
Reservations"
The College OF Idaho team com
posed OF George Miller and Rober.
Farrar, will uphold the affirmative side
of the question. while the Southern
California team, Barnard Brennan and
Ralph Barker. will uphold the mega
tive. No information has been re-
eived as to the ability OF the California
team, but their school has long held
an enviable reputation for its forensic
activities and it will be safe to as
sumo that they will not fall below
the standards they have maintained in
the past.
This is the first year the College
of Idaho has gone out OF southern
Idaho in debate and the results are
very gratifying. Much interest has
been manifested by the students and
this will probably lead to more con-
tests OF this kind in the future. ,

American Cargoes
For American Ships
New Regulation Holds
Tonnage Must Use
L. S. Boats

Washington-Cargoes destined for
foreign ports, moving at expor; rates
on through bills OF lading issued by
the railroads at the shipping point,
must be conveyed in American vessels,
according TO statement by Frederick
|. Thompson, member OF the ship
ping board. The shipping board has
certified to the interstate commerce
commission that there is now ample
tonnage operating under the Ameri-
can flag, and the regulatory body is
expected to suspend its order OF some
time ago which rescinded section 2S
OF the merchant marine act This
section provides for the issuance OF
through bills OF lading and through
rate on shipments from shis country
to foreign ports, provided the water
transportation is in Ameican bottoms
Mr.. Thompson's statement points ont
that the stipulation that the American
bottoms must be used for shipper
TO enjoy the reduced rates in manda-
tory, but has been in allegiance because
there was shortage OF facilities un-
der the American flag.
Commerce moving in foreign YES
sells will take regular womes,ic rate
to the seaboard. Mr. Thompson's
statement says. ard then the ocean
rate to the fireign destination. With
section 2s again working. he believes
the movement in American REGISTERED
vessels will be increased.

RAILROAD
HELP To BOOST
PROJECT RELIEF
Union Pacific is Appeal
ed to for Aid at Wash
ington; Report is Slow

Assistance IN putting over any leg
islation which may prove necessary
as a result OF the impending report of
the reclamation fact finding commits
sion is sought by the Caldwell Com
mercial club from the Union Pacific
railroad. Monday, r. T. Hurtt, sec
retary. wrote Carl Gray. Union Paci-
tic president. an outline OF the situa-
ton together with an appeal for aid.
Because the fact finders report has
been so long delayed, there is great
likelihood that relief legislation will not
make progress in congress this session
unless it is cordially supported from
every angle, the letter points out. An
appeal to the railroad for help in fos-
tering any measures resulting from
the report is based on the promise
that the Union Pacific raidroad is
vitality interested in prosperous feder-
al reclamation projects.
Status of the fact finding commits
sion's report seems TO be rather OBJ
scure- L. J. Magee, writing recently
to Mr.. Hurtt, predicted that the re-
port would be Immediately for,hcom-
ing. But Senator Borah, in recent re-
marks TO the senate. said that he was
informed the report would not be
made until about May |. Request
from the interior department that the
commission submit separate report
on each project is understood to have
delayed the report. The general re-
port is said to b ready now for sub
mission to tn department OF the in
terror.
Mr.. Hurts letter to the Union Pa
chc points out that legislation may
not be necessary But that if the COM
missions report should require con-
gressional action, all possible pres
sure must be exerted to obtain favor
able action at this session.
In the absence OF the commissions
report and a remodeling of the recla-
nation policy generally which is ex-
pcted to result, temporary relief
measures are engrossing congress and
seem to be making some progress.

BILL MONDAY
Temporary Measure is
Past Danger Point;
Smith Helps Fight;
Success Assured

The Phipps bill, extending temper.
y relief to federal project settlers
passed the house OF representatives
Monday Afternoon. according to a tele-
gram received Monday afternoon by
The Tribune from Congressman Ad-
olson T. Smith. Congressman Smith
message follows:
Pmpps bill extending relief to
delinquent settlers on irrigation
projects in amended form passed
house this afternoon. Amend
ments will doubtless be accepted
at once by Senate. Am mailing
copy of bill.
Full confidence is expressed here
that the measure will speedily pass the
senate where it originated and where
there is practically no opposition.
Champion led the house fight for
amendments to this bill where, it was
reported upon ]. H. Lowell's recent
return from Washington, there was a
considerable possibility that it would
not pass.
The measure authorizes the secre-
tary of the interior this year to supply
water to delinquent settlers. grants
relief in the form of a
postponement of current charges
spreading them over new three year
period and charges interest at FIVE per
cent on such back payments.

Feeble Minded in
u. S. Increase
School Enrolment for
Detectives Grows at
Rapid Rate

Washingion-Enrol in schools
and classes for feeble minded and sub
normal children in this country shows
an extraordinary increase in the past
p years, according to report made
public by the department OF the in
terror through the bureau OF educa-
ton. This increase does not show
that a greater percentage OF children
are becoming mentally defective from
year to year, but it indicates a grow
ing interest on the part OF cities,
states and private organizations in
making provisions for this unfortu-
nate class.
In 1900 the % schools reported
had l0,2f7 inmates. Although city
schools were not reported separately,
it appears that there were then very
few city classes for detectives. In
1918. 200 schools reported 55.0S4 pu-
pills. The PA schools in 1922 report
ed total of o3.3oo pupils. The en-
rollment has increased IS per cent dur
ing four years. This is more than
twice as much as the increase in en-
rolment in public elementary and Sc
condary school during the same time.
