Washington.—Majority Leader Un derwood supported the Adamson gen eral dam bill In a speech In the housj today, as protecting the public against monopolistic abuse, fifty year per mits would be granted to private capi tal under the bill for developing water power projects. Mr. Underwood pointed out that hydro-electric power Is not a commod ity. In the same sense as steel, oil, tobacco and similar products. He said there were two kinds of monopoly, that In which the price of a commodity Is ,privately fixed and competition driven /out and that of a publicly controlled corporation such as a water power development. Compliments T. R. "Colonel Roosevelt is to be compli mented,” said Mr. Underwood, "upon bis progress and his assimilation of the common sense doctrine of monop oly and its control In sayirfg In his recent Pittsburgh speech that ‘unlim ited competition has proved one of the greatest curses of modern civiliza tion' and that 'the new freedom la merely the old, old freedom which per mits each man to cut his neighbor's throat.’ "Only by regulated monopoly and not by competition and duplication can the best services and the lowest rates be secured. For Fair Value. Analysing the various provisions of the Adamson bill, Mr. Underwool pointed out that If the government determined to reclaim the property covered by the permit to build a dam, It would not be compelled to pay for the franchise rights, business devel oped or good will, but merely for the fair value of the property belonging to the grantee. "My only fear," said Mr. Underwood, "Is that, while the rights of the pub lic are protected, it does not hold out sufficient Inducements to eapital to encourage Investment In such enter prises He said only four important dams have been constructed in the navigable streams of the country In the last decade, the Keokuk, on the Mississippi; the Hale's Rar dam, on the Tennessee river; (’non Rapids dam, on the upper Mississippi, and Tx>ck 12 dam, on Coosa river, in Ala bama.

AUGUSTA, GA. TO CURE EVILS NIIVIf'PLUCKING' - Effort Will Be Made at Next Session of Congress in Sub stitute For Present Law. Washington. —To cure alleged evils of the "plucking board” plan of pre venting stagnancy in the navy, as re vealed In the congresional investi gation of the elimination Crom the active list of certain naval captains of unblemished records, an effort prob ably will be made at the next session of congress to substitute for thp pres ent law a scheme of promotion com bining the features of both seinority and selection. Secretary Daniels already has caus ed to be gathered from the various branches of the naval service a mass of data and suggestions embodying the \-|ev« of offi-nrs of every grade and condition. This is to be turned Her to a special i»oaru of naval offi cers over which Assistant Secretary F’ranklln D. Roosevelt will preside, with a view to the preparation of leg islation In time to forestall the ap pointment of another plucking hoard next spring. While this hoard will have before it number of suggestions looking to a proper flow of promotions without recourse to "plucking,” the dominant idea is that where an officer has not made an exceptionally good record, he will not be arbitrarily retired, but al lowed to remain in his grade. This would Involve his being passed over by better equipped officers below him. GEORGIA ITEMS DEFICIENCY BIEL Public Buildings at Thomson and Eatonton Included Among ’Other Southern Cities.
