WESTINGHOUSE
LETTER R}
AlG 81

WASHINGTON-Th McNary- Haugen
farm relief bill, hailed By it's spon-
sors as American agriculture's pan
acea, will be introduced again into
both houses of congress early in
the short session.
But only the most optimistic friends
Of the farmer predict that it will
get anywhere.
Two factors might come to its aid.
President Coolidge might demonstrate
a change of heart in it's favor,
which hardly seems likely, and the
serious cotton situation in the south
may lead some southern senator's to.
swing into line behind it.
But unless a definite change in
sentiment is discovered, the bill may
not even get on the floor. Presi-
sure of time and the jam of APP
Lropriation bills and other legislation
might cause leaders of the farm bloc
to decide that it would be futile
to trot the measure out for debate
unless they could be assured of a
change in the lineup of last year,
when It was defeated.
Opinion varies as to the bills pros
poets among the leading senator's
and congressman. While one doubts
whether it will come out of COM
mittee, another insists that it will
be pushed in this session to .the
bitter end.
other pet measures for relief have
given way before it, however, ans
the McNary- Haugen bill remains the
only drastic niece of Sucb legisIati on

ENGINEER PLANS
NEW GREAT LAKE.
Says Construction of Giant
Reservoir Would Maintain

Level of Inland Seas.
By the Associated Press.

by the AsS0caated Press.
CHICAGO. March 12-Plans for a
great new. Take, covering 10000
square miles, capable Of maintaining
the original level Of the Great Lakes
and providing an income Of more than
$15,000.000 from water power alone.
were described before the Isaak Wal
ton League of America here last night
by c. Lorne Campbell. Canadian engi-
neer.
BY the construction of two great
dams. one on the Albany River, which
flows into the Hudson Bay. and the
other on the Ogoki River. main tribu-
tary OF the Albany. Mr.. Campbell esti-
mated that the lake formed thereby
would have a wa ershed OF more than
900 square mIeS. a cut from the
basin 70 re south into Lake Nipigon,
which empt.eS into Superior, would
assure the Great Lakes yearly mini
mum flow of 10000 cubic feet Of water
n second. Az flood period The flow
would be 10000 feet a second.
Wous.. Increase Power.
The speaker, who said he had no
connection whatever with any politi-
cal, provincial, national or interna-
tional body, declared that the new
lake. which would be north of Lake
Superior. in addition to eliminating the
dredging problem facing cities on the
Great Lakes, would increase hydro
electric capacity at the st. Lawrence
probably 500 900 horsepower; at Mag
ara In excess of $50, 600 horsepower;
at the Sault Ste. Marie, more than
so, 900 horsepower, and on the NipiSon
10000.
To make possible the lake. Mr..
Campbell said a railway 125 miles long
would have to be built to transport
machinery. The cut from the new
lake into Lake Nipigon, he estimated,
would be to 5 miles long and l80 TO
100 feet deep. The dam on the Ogoki
River, he figured, would be 1000 to
5000 feet in length and 13O feet high
at the highest points. The Albany
River dam, he estimated, would be in
the neighborhood of 5000 feet in
length and las feet high. 1t might be
necessary to construct embankmentS
at low-lying points, Mr.. Campbell said,
to prevent dissipation of water at
these possibly weakened points.
Heavy Rainfall.
Precipitation over the area which is
known as Patricia country" said the
speaker, is intense. There is very lit
tie surface soil in the Patricia coun-
try and scarcely any seepage, making
all the water available for diversion.
The boundaries of the Patricia dis
trict are, on the south, the Canadian
National Railway; on the west, the
provincial line of Manitoba; on the
north. the Hudson Bay and James
Bay and. on the east, the provincial
boundary of Quebec, comprising an
area of about 300.0 900 square miles, all
within the Province of Ontario.
