THREAT TO GREAT FALLS BEAUTY
" AROUSES STORM OF PROTEST
Star Photos Showing Scenic Wonders at
Stake Bring Assurance That Power
Project Faces Fight.

The movement to save the natural
beauty of Great Falls and the Poto4. &C
Valley, which ii is felt would be married
by water power development, will find
| support in Congress and among land
scape experts, Judging from letters
that have come to The Star.
Copies of the recent issue of the
rotogravure section Of The Sunday
Star. containing aerial photographs
that revealed in striking manner the
beauty of Great Falls and the sur
rounding territory, were sent to the
membership OF the Senate and House
and to landscape authorities for. their
information. Although comment was
not solicited. number of members
have replied, indicating they are OPP
posed to the destruction of the scenic
attractiveness of the Potomac.
Members Promise Aid.
"I assure you that l am a firm be-
lever in a beautiful Washington and
you can count on my support for any
thing that will add to the beauty of
our Nations Capital City," wrote Rep
resentative Frank Murphy of Ohio.
"In my opinion" read a letter from
Representative John c. Speaks of Ohio,
the Federal Power Commission should
not dispose of this area containing
such fine natural park possibilities un-
til Congress has an opportunity to
consider the subject"
Representative Edwin l.. Davis of
Tennessee advised The Star that he
had written to the power commission
As follows:
II am advised that an application
Is pending before you for authority to

ton. and I respectfully but earnestly
protest against such a concession be-
ing granted In my opinion this ter
ritory proves to be much more valu-
able and useful as a park than for
its beauties to be destroyed for the
sake Of commercial enterprise. The
time has arrived when we should
cease destroying the beauty spots in
the Eastern United States. Not every
thing should be prostituted for com.
mercial profit. Americas greatest
fault and future menace are un-
bridled commercialism.
Bruce Not Convinced.
Senator Bruce of Maryland, a mem.
Der of the Senate District committee,
indicated in his letter that he is not
convinced the power project would
mar the attractiveness of the area.
His letter, which differed from the
others, read as follows:
SHOULD you be so certain that the
flooding Of the valley of the Potomac
River, lying above Chain Bridge.
would destroy the scenic beauty of
that area? The flooding of Dulaney's
Valley, created by the elevation or
the Lock Raven Dam, which is a part
of the Baltimore City water system,
added very greatly not only to the
beauty of the surrounding country.
but to the value of all the property
in that locality"
Representative Ralph F. Lozier of
Missouri wrote that he would oppose
the Potomac River power project and
support the National Capital Park
and Planning Commissions program
for the development Of park in the
