ST. LAWRENCE POWER
PLAN is PRESENTED
$171,547 900 Plant to Develop
More Than 100000 Horse
power Is Recommended.
BY the Associated Press.

BY the Associated Press.
NEW YORK, January 5.-~Recom-
mendations for developing more than
1000, 900 horsepower of electricity at
an estimated total cost of $171 SAT, 900
we're presented yesterday in an En-
cheering Board report made public by
the st. Lawrence Power Development
Commission.
The commissions engineers recon-
mended a one-dam, two-step power
plant development at Massena Point,
N. Y, which, they asserted, would cost
less than any plan heretofore advanced
for utilization of the International Rap
ids of the st. Lawrence River and
would produce more power.
The recommended plant would be
built in two steps. The first develop
ing 100000 horsepower, would be to
build the dam to a height that would
give a head of so feet. When this
power was sold and it was considered
advisable to complete the development,
the report said, the dam would be
raised IS feet and an additional
5000 horsepower would be added.
The objections of Canadian authorities
to a one-dam development in favor of
a two-dam project are met by this
plan, the report said, in its provision
for two-step development.

STIMSON WANTS LAW
SET ASIDE FOR WORKER
Bill to Be Offered in Behalf of Ed
die A. Savoy, Venerable
Colored EmploYe.

Congress will be asked to set aside
the provisions of the civil service re-
tirement act in behalf of Eddie Angus
tine Savoy, venerable colored employe
of the State Department, who, accord
ing to Secretary Stimson, has IAN ap-
probation of the old-fashioned art of
courteous service"
At the suggestion of Secretary Slim
son a bill will be introduced to permit
Savoy, IS years old, to continue his
SO years of service to the State De-
partment as long as he is needed. The

gave Savoy work in the State Depart
ment in 1871.
Eddie is a familiar figure around Mr.
Stimson's Office. His duties consist of
announcing callers upon the head Of
the State Department. He has during
his long years of service demonstrated
a remarkable memory for names, faces
and titles.
Savoy is slated for retirement next

Church Will Accept
Window rendered
By Lolita Crabtree
Tribute to Actress Mother
Was Refused for An
other Edifice.
BY the Associated Press.

BY the Associated IreSS.
CHICAGO, January 5.-A welcome
was found in Chicago yesterday for the
church window which Lolita Crabtree,
famous actress of a generation ago,
had left as memorial to her mother.
Rejected by the New York church
to which the actress bequeathed it, the
window will be installed here in the
Little Church at the End of the Road"
st. Stephens, an edifice which has come
to be looked upon as sort of shrine
of poetry, music and art.
Deploring the rejection by the New
York church because of Miss Crab
trees profession, Rev. Irwin st. John
Tucker, pastor of the Chicago parish,
said:
This window is in perfect harmony
with our tradition. 1t will be an honor
to have in our church window bear
ing the name of SO intensely human a
character as Lolita Crabtree. If Lolita
Crabtree had sinned, of which there
is no evidence, what of it? The church
is for sinners; not for the righteous"
Mr. Tucker announced he had re-
ceived word from Maj. Clarence R. Ed
wards, administrator of the actress
estate that the window will be de-
livered here promptly.

Our Birthright

How astonishing that should need in this coun-
try an organization to defend civil liberty and that it
should be necessary for this organization to issue
report yearly on 1.-THE fight for civil liberty"
Late in the eighteenth century, when the people
Of the respective states ratified the first ten amend
ments to the Constitution the Bill of Rights they
supposed the question of civil liberty was settled They
wrote into the Constitution the guarantees of free
speech and free press the right of the people
peaceably to assemble and to petition the government
for redress of grievances the right to be secure
against search and seizure and other important safe
guards without which the of that time were not
content to live.
Yet since then, and particularly in these inauspi-
cious times the Constitution has not been enough to
assure these rights
The American Civil Liberties Union reports that
it has been necessary within the last year to fight in
the courts against proposed press gag law to
bat $50 prosecutions violating the freedom of speech
guarantee, to protest against the fact that 121
peaceable assemblies have been broken up prohb-
ted and to oppose many other nvasions of the cti-
zens' rights.
Strangely enough it often is the men and women
who give loudest lip service to the Constitution
against whom civil liberty must be defended. 1t is as
If they had blind spot which lets them perceive and
adore the first pages of our fundamental law, but
olots out the ten fundamental amendments.
Written guarantees of liberty and freedom are not
enough unless they written also in the minds and
souls of the people for whom they intended. 1t
ideal unique among nations that found express
sion in the Bill of Rights 1t will survive here only as
ong the American people accord it real devotion.

Views of Times Readers

A State Issue

When Mayor Sullivan demanded reduc-
ton of rates on electricity and water used by
the city, he probably made what will become
statewide issue in the next election
For the first time public official has
dared to suggest that the utilities be curbed
in their greeds and extortions and placed his
finger on one Of the great causes of depres-
sion.
While it may be true that taxes and the
cost of government are unnecessarily high,
and this is quite true Of some departments
Of government, the other fact is that the
private taxing power of the utilities takes
much more than the government itself.
1t is only because the utilities have cap
tured the state government, controlling, dom
mating and directing the decisions Of the
public service commission that they are per-
mitted to tax the people beyond endurance.
Some Of the schemes by which the hold
ing companies Of utilities take the money OF
the people and divert it from a proper &C
counting system would make bandits who get
twenty years for using a gun to get the
money, hesitate and probably quit.
One such holding company still has the
temerity to charge an Excise tax" as part
Of it's operating expenses and no member OF
the public service commission even questions
the proprety of charging the people for
such an item, although all such taxes were
abolished Immediately after the war. That,
of course, is larceny.
When Mayor Sullivan questions the rates
to the city, he raises the whole question Of
rates to private individuals. The city has
contract made under political conditions that
suggest unfairness. The people have only
the service commission to protect them and
the commission seems intent only on pro-
tecting the companies.
Somewhere along the line there may ap-
pear a candidate for Governor in one of the
two parties who is free enough from the
utilities or a fear of the utilities to demand
deep-rooted reforms, even to public own
ership if that be the only way to defend the
people
Sullivan has shown courage. If he wins,
perhaps others may have less fear of these
vicious interests which now rule and rob.

Direct Action ErrS

ATOR do I believe it is expedient
IN to give our police force license
to assume the role of vigilante COM
mittees. Direct action has been
tried in many communities, and on
the face of things it may seem to
get results.
It undoubtedly is true that the
racketeering group is made up of
sneaks and vicious neuroticS. So it
can be said that these men fear a
beating more than an arrest.
But once the police officers are
encouraged to take the law into
their own hands, they are certain
to make mistakes. With the best
intentions in the world they are go
ing to-and they have on occasion
beaten the wrong man.
Il isn't guns and prisons we need
so much as a new economic struc-
ture. Certainly not all the gangsters
and racketeers in the United States
today were born that way.
I doubt that any of them were.
And if execution and Imprisonment
were deterrentS we shouldn't have a
single criminal left.
Once we start shooting indiscrimi-
nately. We are apt to let ourselves in
for a reign of terror. From a
psychological standpoint it is a dan
gerous thing to hand any man q

Aug. D
ON Aug. 5, 1917, Walter Hines
" Page, United States arnbassa-
dor to Great Britain, delivered an
address at Plymouth, England, on
the allied cause in the World war.
He said in part:
The war has swept away Incl
dental differences between us as a
harrow smoothes a field.
There is coming the greatest victory
for free government that was ever
won, and the day of this victory
which we are both fighting for may
turn out to be the most important
date in our history, or perhaps in all
history.
And the necessity to win it has
cleared the air as no other event in
modern times has cleared it; and
but for the millions of brave lives
it has cost, this clearing of the air
would richly repay all that the war
viii cost. 1t has revealed the future
OF the world to us not as conquerors,
but as preservers of its peace.
This empire and the great re-
public must then be the main guar
dams of civilization hereafter, the
conscious and leagued guardians OF
the world"

of starvation they help to take care
of certain energy requirements and
thus spare the proteins.
Any excess of sugar taken into the
body is stored and finally, when the
storage facilities are exhausted, is
reconstructed to form fat. This fat
then is deposited around the body
in various places, usually where
most conspicuous and least desired.
Cellulose, which is the fibrous
material of various foods, and which
is in general carbohydrate in char
acter, adds bulk to food and thus
serves to aid action of the intes-
tines.
Complex sugars, when taken into
the body, are digestsd into the form
of simple sugars. They then pass
through the intestinal walls and are
taken up by the blood and used in
the various manners that have been
mentioned.

Delay the Trigger

CT DON'T want you to exhibit any
4 hesitation when you come
upon a man you. know to be crlrnl-
nal or racketeer and have reason to
believed is armed, or to be the last
to draw. I want you to pull first
and give it to him.
This seems to me a dangerous
doctrine, although I am aware OF
certain difficulties which the police
of New York have to face. 1t is
true that a number Of brave officers
are killed in the performance OF
their duty every year.
It is hard to demand that a po-
liceman should always let the other
fellow take the first shot. More
over, I realize that in great many
cases an arrest may be quite fruit
less. Although we hardly approach
the degree OF organization prevalent
in Chicago, some Of the big rack
eteers are we'll heeled with money
and can hire skillful lawyers.
Perjury being what it is, there is
small difficulty in the framing OF
false alibis.
Many undoubtedly guilty people
have escaped because of the vari-
Gus kinds of protection which our
legal system throws around an &C.
cused person. Yet it seems to me
vast leap to spring from this into
any effort to railroad culprits into
Jail
Frankly, I still believe it Is better
that number of guilty ones should
escape rather than have penalties
assessed against the innocent.

DAILY HEALTH SERVICE

The organic acids, such as the
citric acid of oranges and lemons,
the potassium acid tartrate of
grapes, and the oxalic acid of va
riOus other foods are burned in
the body to produce energy and
also are calculated as carbohy-
drates, even though they have a
lower fuel value than the sugars.
The carbohydrates are of i'm
portance in the body chiefly as a
source of energy for work. The
amount of carbohydrates used de-
ponds on the amount of energy lost.
During prolonged starvation, the
carbohydrates stored up in the
body, particularly in the form of
glycogen in the liver and in the
muscle, is used up to supply this
need. Carbohydrates are burned in
supplying body heat, maintaining
the body temperature.
The carbohydrates can not be
used to build up tissue, but in times
