During the many years which he de-
voted to his scientific work, Mr.. Bristol
developed a complete line of recording
instruments adapted to meet almost
every industrial requirement. His m
ventions included instruments for meas
uring pressure, temperature, electricity,
speed and time.
In 1915 he conceived the idea Of re-
cording simultaneously sound and &C.

this instrument he spent nearly a mil
lion dollars in the construction of a
fully equipped motion picture laboratory
and studio In Waterbury.

Blaine said today information con-
corning the leasing Of about 500 post

DISTRICT WORKERS.
PROTECTION URGED

Senator Arthur Capper of Kansas,
chairman of the Senate District COM
mittee, was asked in a resolution
adopted by the Buy-in-W Washington
Council to insert in the District appro-
priation bill a clause providing that all
proposals for estimates on District
projects should insist that bids be
made on the basis of the scale of
wages paid mechanics and laborers in
Washington.
The council has received complaints
from local contractors that they are
frequently confronted with out f-town
builders who underbid them for Fed
eral contracts in Washington because
they import laborers and pay them a
lower wage than the scale prevailing
here. There is also evidence that jobs
of strictly municipal nature are being
awarded out-of-town contractors for
the same reason, it was said
The council feels that it is unfair and
unjust to ask local contractors to meet
this kind of competition and that the
lowered local wage scale which would
follow their doing so would be injurious
to the city as whole.
The wage clause was asked in a re-
port submitted by committee COM
prising John B. Colpoys, E. j. Murphy
E. A. Rule and Luther G. Steward.

SENATE LEADERS
WILL SPEED WORK
Agreements on Pensions and
Rivers and Harbors Bills
Are Sought.

By the Associated Press.
YEARLY and hopefully, Senate leaders
looked forward today to adjournment
some time next week and gave their
backing to efforts to make this possible.
The first step was the negotiation of
agreements for votes on the World War
pensions bill and the rivers and harbors
measure. They were confident these
would be disposed of by the end of the
week, with the close of the session to
follow shortly thereafter.
1t was arranged that the veterans
measure be given frst attention today,
provided an agreement for a vote could
be reached. It has widespread support,
and there was every Likelihood Of passage
by nightfall.
Urges Rivers and Harbors Bill
Next on the program, Chairman john
son of the commerce committee intends
to press to a speedy termination the
controversy over the rivers and harborS
measure, which centerS around the
amount of water to be withdrawn from
the Great Lakes for the Illinois water

Blaine, Republican, of Wisconsin, which
proposes to restrict the quantity of water
which may be diverted.
Both sides in this contest have agreed
to permit an early vote, but the Senators
representing the other Great Lake
States have intimated strongly that if
the Blaine amendment is not approved
there will be plenty" of debate before
the rivers and harbors measure Is al
lowed to come to vote.
House Takes Deficiency Bill.
Meanwhile, the House was ready to
act today on the second deficiency
measure carrying funds to meet new
projects authorized in legislation at
this session and for emergency stu
atoms.
Quick disposition Of this measure in
the Senate is planned, although lead
ers are prepared for severe attack upon
the $10,660,000 item for starting work
on Boulder Canyon Dam in the Colo

indicated they would oppose this, but
stern methods are contemplated If q

along this line that Mcneil was ques-
toned today.

element.
He said he personally helped the crew

SAN FRANCISCO, June i9.-The

excessive rates charged by light ard
power utilities in America, brought
sharp rejoinders today from President
Matthew S. Sloan and other leaders of

President Sloan, head of the New

curacy of Ambassador Sackett's state
ment that rates in the United States

in session here. from Orange, N. j.
The delegates to the conference held
a great banquet last night attended by
Ambassador Frederic M Sackett and
other members OF the diplomatic corps
Ambassador Sackett attacked utilities
prices in his address, in which he said:
"One of the primary reasons for
converting such a conference as this
is to discuss and consider constructive
criticisms in the field of it's interests
AS one who shared the responsibilities
of early development of power service
and has retained an interest in its well
fare, 1 venture suggestion in the hope
of contributing to the betterment of
this industry of power supply.
Until the power business is brought
into line with other industries in the
relationship of its cost of production to
the price paid by the consumer, there
can be little justification for thinking
that this great power industry is rapidly
approaching perfection"
After asserting that Gin most great
centers, at least in America" con-
sumers paid for household service from
Is to 20 times the cost of the power,
the envoy added that there is an ex-
traordinary margin between cost and
sales prices, to the reduction of which
science may apply itself with the great
est benefit to the people as a whole.
Perhaps the premises of this simple
statement may be disputed. 1t may be
argued that no such discrepancy exists,
it may be excused or explained with the
greatest ingenuity"
