Commissioner Smith directs partic u*hr attention to the Increasing affili ation of Water power concerns and /Public service agencies, such as street railway end lighting corporallons.anJ oftentimes banks as wall. The con nection between ouch concerns he re gards of serious public significant. Jhe concentration of* control over water powers, tbs tommies loner de •'“••s. M exercised partly by direct ownerahlp of stock. but mainly through Interlocking directorates. The rapidly Increasing concentra tion of water power control about wmch the commissioner sounds a warning may become, he says, tbenuc luua foj a monopoly of both water end steam power. If the water power can uot meet the entire demand of a given locality he points out that the owners can require auxiliary fuel plenu and handle water and fuel power over the —me lines and thus a complete com mercial power monopoly might gardu ally be built up, in fact , already ex ists in a number of communities Great Groups Active. T«n great groups of Inter—ts. with the Qgneral Electric Company as the most powerful, are declared by Com missioner Smith to control or strongly influence about *o per cent of the de veloped commercial water power of the United Htate* These ten groups themselv— are more or less Inter " ' —• "•TPMiMMii irgwinf ruin munlty of lntereata. In thla connec tion the commissioner’* rsport says: "In this maze of Intsr-relatlonshipa, r,n*,ng from practically joint control doan to personal association In com mon directorates, Is clearly revealed th* dilft of water power and public utility corporations under the control ij* * f*w very powerful Interests. These connections, some stronger and some weaker, suggest a favorable condition for a very small number of mi.n to consolidate vsry large Inter est* whenever they may decide It to their advantage to do so. This Inter locking of Interests through director*, while not necessarily indicating a l-iirnose of monopoly, certainly affords an Incentive and a means to combi nation." Mr. Smith, urging ths immediate formulation of a definite policy of de veloping th* remaining water power slice on th# public domain, recom mends gsncially speaking that the government retain the ultimate con - irui of these sites. Th* commissioner fa wire the rental eystem. The water power of ths country, de veloped and practically capable of de velopment at this time, probably does not exceed :S.O«n.ooo horse power. Mr. Smith says. Ths total developed Water power to-day Is about 6,000.000 horse power.
