Con- | PROHIBITION WIRE TAPPING By a decision of § to ¢ the U. 8. had a football team and a basket- | Bupreme Court has held that evi- ~won a single game there was wide- | through the tapping of telephone | memorable. This is not | 90,000 the fourth end fifth amendments to the U. B Constitution, which ferbid unreasonable search and sésure. When the Supreme Court is di- vided on a decislon by a margin of one it means that there is a plenitude of argumentation on both sides; and it also means that one justice had the power to produce the decision. There have been many b to 4 deci- sions by the Supreme Court and some of them have been on ques- tions of enormous importance to the people and the government. It is al- ways regrettable when the high court decides great public questions by one vote. Btealing conversation flowing over a telephone wire is no better than stealing the contents of private lat- ters, rifling a desk, sclzing the con- tents of an office file, gaining access [10 a safe, or placing a dictaphone in !a suspected person’s room. Stealing conversation off a tele- phone wire is in the same class; and now we know it is permissible, It men engaging in a conspiracy are standing on a street corner and their conversation is overheard by a third party the evidence of the eaves- dropper would be valid in any court. 1t the eaveadropper happens to be one listening in over the telephone and he knew the identity of these whom he heard speaking, it is prob- able that his evidence would be deemed valld. It the eavesdropper happens to be & detective his instinct would be to tap the wire if he could get at conversation in no other way. _The Supreme Court decision mere- ly validates methods by prohibition agents that other species of detec- tives have utilised from time fm- saying. the methods are honorable. There is con- siderable to winning law cascs that s not slways honorable. Government agents, of courac, should not descend to such low tac- tics as wire tapping; but the effect of the Bupreme Court decision is that they can do so if they sce fit. An- other effect probably will be that eald agents in the future will get less opportunity to exercige their talents. WHY SELI, MUSCLE SHOALS? “Why not sell Muscle Shoals?" is the two-column heading of an article in the Waterbury American credited to one Edwin C. Holden, who wrote | it for the Haltimore Evening Sun. Holden calls it a “technical and eco- nemic failure,” espectally the huge nitrate plant. The No. 3 or Wilson dam has a primary power of only 100,000 horsepower, he says; when Ne. 3 dam and auxillary steam plants are bullt the ultimate power capacity will be about 560,000 horsepower, Comparing this with Niagara Falls Holden finds that the pawer gener- ated there ja about 14 times the primary power at Muscle Bhoals (whether with only No. 2 dam or 2 and 3 is not stated), and the electric power output in all of the larger citios is much greater. In 1927 Muscle Shoals, according to Holden, ranked 38th in output among the power syatems of the country. Therefore Holden, reflecting the power mind, is in favor of selling the plant to the highest bidder— whether there would be any bidding very high is not stated. Compared with this one finds a letter in the New York Herald- Tribune written by A, Graham Appleten, of Mt, Vernon, N, Y., who returned from Muscle Shoals, where he made a thorough investigation of the power and nitrate plant. The tone of his letter, and the figures he quotes, do not agree with those of the Baltimore writer. Says Appleton: -« . . 1 have just returned to this city from an {nspection of the government's plant at Muscle 8hoals —the Wilson Dam, and the nitrate plants Nos. 1.and 2, As a layman, but under the expert guldace of Captain | Morrill, army engineer In charge, I made such an examination of the plant as convinced me beyond any doubt whatever that no part of the plant is obsolete and no part needs to be salvaged. “The Wilson Dam, now eompleted, is ready to furnish 260,000 horse- power, with & maximum of 624,000 hersepower avatlable almost imme- diately. This means hydro-electric power far cheaper than steam, “Nitrate plant No. 2, the largest in the world, has 114 permanent bulld- ings, with & steam plant that con- tains the largest turbine ever built, This his @ generating capacity of horsepower to be added, should the need arise, to the power | from Wilson Dam. “As it now stands, No. 2 can pro- duce 40,000 tons of pure nitrogen a year. This is equal to 240,000 tons of Chilean nitrate, which contains only 15 per cent of pure nitrogen. This product of No, 3 can furnish 1,320,- 000 tons of 8-3-3 fertilizer, enough to supply 9,000,000 ‘acres with 300 pounds to the acre. “Senator Ladd has described the No. 2 plant as the greatest culclum carbide plant in the world. The pro- ducts of calclum carbide alone rival those of coal tar. “The method of fization of nitro- gen from the air, for which No. 2 is adapted, is the most modern known to science. The equipment for liquor air compression, the electric carbide furnaces and the steel tanks for turning cyanamid into ammonia, convertible inte nitrate acid, is the most modern in existence and is in first-clans condition. “Ama proposition the capacity of No. 2 is 160 tons of ammonia & day, which would result in a sup- ply of ammunitien for an army of 1,250,000, i “Nitrate plant No. 1, with a small- spread commendation for the fine | wires is valld; that it does not vielate . r output, in equally well equipped. “Under army supervision and at an ‘' Holden published his NEW BRITAIN DAILY HERALD, WEDNESBAY, JUNE ¢, 1928, annual cost of $85,000 all parts of these plants are kept in perfect con- dition and are ready for use. There may be a question as to whether operation should be in the hands of the government or'those of private corporations cun be no question that any part of the plant is obeolete or necds salvaging.” In conclusion the fact that let's take note of Baldimore, where scuthing de- nunciation of the Muscle Shoals plant, is cne of the chiet American producing cities for .fartilizers. { Muscle Shouls und its fertilizer po sibilities is as popular in the fer- tilizer trade of ‘Baltiniore as the bell 1 weevil in a southern cotten patch. | Facts and Fancies or individual.
