WANT HORSE PALACE
TO HOUSE HOMELESS

TORONTO, Ont, Nov. 2. CUP.
The suggestion that the Canadian
national exhibitions million dollar
"horse palace" be converted into
a home for single jobless men has
been advanced by Alderman Percy
Quinn. -,
"Thc city and government paid
81, 100000 to build that horse pal
ace and it is occupied only about
two weeks in the year." he said.
"And yet the municipal authori-
ties apparently don't think enough
of humanity to allow the single
unemployed to sleep there during
the cold MONTHS
Several hundred war veterans
were sheltered in the palace dur
ing the recent Canadian corps re-
union.

in the Mississippi valley. -.

you refer to the federally operat-
ed Inland Waterways corporation.
The annual report Of the chief OF
engineers, U. S. army, 1887, in
dicates that in 1886, the Missis-
sippi river system carried total
of 73,9O2,22O tons of freight. Of
this, the Inland Waterways cor
poration hauled 1,652,301 tons, OF
2.24 per cent Of the total.
Since the Tennessee river is
still a 9-foot channel in the max
ing, to accuse the IVA of using
the river for moving its construc-
ton materials for the express
purpose of making a showing is
like blaming a highway contractor
for using his newly excavated
roadbed for hauling in his crushed
stone for concreting. However,
here are the figures for the Ten
nessee river. The tonnage Of gov
eminent materials moved in 1886
was 1,206,189 tons out of total
tonnage of 2,231,559. In that
year, therefore, government ma
telials made up 54.05 per cent OF
the freight hauled. In 1887, due
to completion of part of its work,
the government moved only .331,-
1875 tons of material, or 1888 pei
cent of the total of 1927, 076 tons
moved on the Tennessee for that
year. Though general economic
conditions reduced slightly the

nessee and several high storage
dams on the principal tributaries
to govern the flow into the main
stream. Since the major portion
of the heavy rainfall natural to
this region occurs during the win.
ter and spring months, high de-
gree of coordination is possible in
the operation Of such Il system.
Under unified operation, the.
run-offSof rain water during the.
wet season can be stored in the,
tributary reservoirs, thereby re-
ducing high flows into the Tcnnes-
see, while the space provided for
flood storage behind the high nav
igation dams along the main river.
further reduces the flood stages
as they move down the valley. In
the summer and fall, the REVERSE
function occurs. Release of the
stored matters from the tributary
reservoirs helps maintain proper
depths in the lower rivers for nav
igation and at the same time
steps up the production of hydro
electric power. Simultaneously,
this withdrawal of water from the
mountain reservoirs creates the
storage space needed for handling
the floods Of the next rainy sea-
son. This, in brief, is the cycle Of
regulation.
You state that flood control
and power do not mix, and quote
i Representative Mansfield as say
ing that power and navigation do
not mix. Yet, Norris dam has
been serving all three purposes
since March 4, 1886. 1t has re-
duccd from three to five feet five
separate flood stages in the Ten
nessee river at Chattanooga. In
the summer and fall, releases of
water from the Norris reservoir
maintain flow of $4,000 cubic
feet per second in the Tennessee
river below Pickwick Landing
dam, making it possible for year
round operation of boats of less
than 9-foot draft on the lower
reaches of the river. That release
of water is going on today, and
it is producing $4,000 kilowatts
Of electric energy as it goes thru
the dam and powerhouse. This is
power that hitherto ran wasted to
the sea. Today it is being sold and
is helping to pay for the public
investment for service and safety
Gilbertsville dam will be a typi,

Here's a new tip for anglers who

John Forward of Mcdford, pro

they don diving togs and catch the
fish by hand.

tors, the proportion of private
use of the river increased mcasur-
ably. These figures are from a
statement issued by the U. S.
army engineer office at Nashville
on November 20, 1887.
Operation of the government
owned Inland Waterways corpor-
alton for the calendar year 1887
cost the taxpayers exactly moth
ing. On the contrary, the corpor-
alton Melted a profit of $253,-
935.29 for the taxpayers of the
United States.
For the information of your
readers, when the Inland Water
ways corporation was created
congress vested it with authority
to issue capital stock in exchange
for funds from the treasury to
the extent of $l5,000,000. By the
time the corporation had issued
SIP, 100000 worth of stock, it was
doing so we'll that it asked con,
gress to cancel the remaining 3d..
100000 authorization. AS of De
cember 81, 1887, the corporation
held government bonds of a pal
value of $4,437,OO0, leaving a net
investment on the part of the fed
eral government of $7,563,0O0
Profits from the corporation:
operations have helped build W
its assets, so that its equipment
now is valued at $24, 621 ,991.
