of the lull to appropriate $2,000,000

That day lias been set aside, however,

Representative Heftta, of Alabama,

claims of the Federal and Slate gov?
ernments to control over water powers
marked the opening of the debate in
the Senate to-day over the Connecti?
cut River dam bill, through which it
is proposed to establish the principle
of Federal control of water power.
An agreement was made for a vote
on the bill on the legislative dajj of
February 11. but it is expected it will
be several days later than that
when the vote is taken Senator Pur
toll, of Ohio. Kader of the faction in
the Senate which favors control by
the government over the rates and
cliargs of water powers, defended the
measure to-day and will resume his
speech to-morrow morning.
"The time will come when there will
have to be national supervision over
'hese water power rates, just as there
is over railroad rates." Senator Bur
tan said. "Tt will be necessary to re- ,
Kard water as well as land as an asset
Of the nation, which must be so con
trolled as to promote the general wel
Kara and as far as possible offer equal
possibilities."
Objections to the alleged invasion
of State rights were made by several
Senators in the debate. Senator
Works, of California, insisted that
States alone should have the right to
supervise and lix water power rates.
