M. BRAUCHER , (Special Correspondent) Niagara Fatls, Ont., Feb. 18.—Gen- erate a horsepower of clectricity by: steam and it costs $40 to $60 a year. Let the swift rivers do the Same work and it costs $18 a-year. That is the lesson saving of coal and money that Niagara Falls taught. Generations of men stood spetl- bound at the beauty of Niagara Falls and the Canadian gorges and cascades. But the wheels of com- merce were turned by coal. Eighteen million horsepower ran wildly into the sea in Canadian rivers and streams. French missionaries of the 17th century, venturing through a wilder- ness brought back strange tales of rivers leaping down the sides of mountains. They wrote poems about it. Sometime in 1757, an obscure fur trader named Chabert: Joncaire took a pick to Niagara instead of a pen, Above the Ameri falls he dug a little circular di With a six- foot fail he ran a mill that used probably 20 horsepo With the lumber ‘he built ships and the ships brought furs from the upper lakes. What the Pick Saved Joncaire’s pick saved the Niagara Falls Power Company and factories and residents of 17 counties 3,500,000 tons of coal‘last year. For, in 1925 the greatest of the United States hydro-electric companies generated '8,161,130,010 kilowat of electrici that ‘sold for about a quarter of cent. per? kilowatt. . Nestled next the steep bank belo the American falls is a building that houses a n-built waterfall where half x million shorsepower is gen- erated. Feeding on this electrical food are scores of the great chemi- cal, metal, paper and other com- panies of the world. Cheap power is delivered as far east as Syracuse and west E Rates-of 3 and 4 cents per Gilowa hour obtain in Syracuse, Buffalo and other large cities served.

The announcement was made today yy Chairman Cummins of the senate judiciary committee, in a minority report opposing the senate investi- gation as to whether the Aluminum lompany, in which Secretary Mellon is a large stockholder, has violated fedetal court decrees of 1912. 8e Cummins said the depart: “in possession of informa- tion known or believed to exist in- eluding not only everything that was jable to the “federal trade™ coin- mission but also many items of it formation not submitted to the com- mission.” Senate's Right Challenged “After earefully considering entire case and exhausting wailable source’ of i itor Cummins said, ment has reached the conclusion contempt proceedings cannot by any possibility be successfully main- tained.” In iew of this/finding Senator challenged the legal right mate to make a further an- the Cumm of the se westigation. “It is the judgment of the minorit; of the comniittee,” the report added, it there is. no constitutional a thority for the resolution of inv gation’ recommended in the majority report and that if the course indirat- ed in the proposed resolution, be- icago and Cleveland, the rescue party.

Overconfidence is our worst y. believe the people are well sat- isfied with the present conduct of state affairs and will listen to no chieanery directed at men who have proved that they have the interests of the people at heart.” ; anne PROCEEDINGS AGAINST ALUMINUM COMPANY CANNOT BE SUCCESSFULLY MAINTAINED, SAYS SEN.
