A. Wieant and Mr. and Mrs. A. A. Mills returned today from Memphis, Tenn, where they attend- ed the annual meeting of the Na- tional Association of Master Plum- bers. While in Memphis they -« 1wany points of interest in that tion. One of the most interesting places at which they stopped was the Muscle Shoals power plant at Muscle Shoals, Ala. This plant, they found, was of a proportion almost | inconceivable The plant has eizght machines and room for 10 niore, giving it a total capacity of 15 power producing ma- chines which could turn out daily £10,000 horse power. When it is known that a town of 12,000 people uses only 1,400 horse power in a day it ean be seen that the plant is large enough to supply power to 60 or more towns and cities the size of New Britain The diameter of one generator is | 21 feet, with a 25 foot rotor, and a 15 foot 41 inch turbine and a shaft 31 inches thick and 44 feet long. The plant cost £50.000,000 and operates | &t a cost of $18,000 per month | One room iz 1,184 feet in length, | 71 feet wide and 57 feet high, The | two turbines have a capacity of 6.- | 430 cubic feet of water per second This figures in zallons 158,550,000 an hour. In 10 hours through these two machines passes almost as much | water as the combined capacity of 1he Shuttle Meadow, Wolcott, Bur- | lington and high service reservorrs supplying water to New Britain. in other words these two machines carry in one day enough water to | £upply the normal needs of ahont | 200,000 people. The dam is 137 feet high, practi- d €ally a. mile long and cons of 1,.- 400.000 cubie vards of concrete Tack of the dam iz a lake which varies from one to three miles in width and 16 miles in length and €overs a territorv of 14,500 acres.

She is as silent as silent Calvin Coolidge. Today she was besieged with in- terviewers. Is she betting on Al? Will he come to Houston? Will he speak to the convention over radio if he is the nominee? | And the silent lady from New York looks on and smiles the smile | of a wise woman—the woman who has learned not to talk. She admits | frankly enough, that she does not | like the idea of being so far away from her husband. This is the third time we have | been separated by any great distance in the 28 years of our married life," she said. “The last time was last |summer when 1 made a one-month | | trip to Europe. The other was a trip to Palm Beach Smile Is Sweet She looks like the kind of woman | who, chooses her husband’s ties and keeps the family fireside attractive to the family. Her smile is sweet and sincere. Her voice is almost southern in its softness. She is plump and matronly and kindly— the prototype of the good mother. There's nothing affected about Mrs. Smith, Her eyes are frank and grey. Her brown hair, untouched | by grey, waves softly about her face. She wore a costume of white and black when she came from the train Monday. She received visitors in | her flower filled suite at the War- wick, overlooking the park She had thrown aside her black |and satin coat and white hat Her | gown was of white chiffon with black polka dots. Her shoes were black and white. She wore costume jewelry of onyx and crystal and a | shoulder corsage of white, | Liked View Mrs. Smith liked the view from her window. Quickly she scanned the suite in search of a radio “Will you listen to the ronvention | over radio?” someone wanted to know “No. indeed.” she replied quickly “T'll attend all the sessions. Why I might just as well be in Albany if 1 got it over radio.” The newlywed dau and Mrs Smith, who accompanied | the party to Houston, will bhe an- [ other interested spectators at all ses- |sions. She is Mrs. Francis Quilh- I nan, formerly Catherine Smith, bet- | fore her marriage June 9. “I'll vote for the first time vear in a presidential election,” she | said, “'and, of course, there is no | | doubt. as to my choice this time.” RADIO IN MAYOR'S OFFICE | Secretary Callahan Installs Set to iter of Gov this Get News of Democratic Conven- tion in Houston, Texas. { Matthew J.
