NATION NEEDS CHEAP POWER, BOARD'S VIEW Erection of More American Hydro-Electric Plants Is Recommended. By United Press WASHINGTON, Jan. 18—Development of nydro-electric plants on major waterways to generate an ample supply of low-eost current for all American homes and factories, was urged by the National Resources Board. The committee suggested a 50year Federal public works program, increasing the present 10.000.000kilowatt production of rivers and lakes to around 55.000.000, and distribution of power to both city and country over a network of highpower transmission lines by plans similar to the Tennessee Valley project. The board foresaw harnessing of all running water to create a more abundant .ife for the whole nation —new inland waterways for navigation. ending the $35,000,000 annual damage from floods, stopping the yearly $400,000,000 toll of soil erosion, conserving moisture against drought and to irrigate arid lands, improving nealth by purification of polluted streams and providing shoreline resorts for recreation. Costs were not estimated." The committee stressed power development and distribution facilities to decentralize industry, revive agricultural life and culture, and rejuvenate industry. Expansion Is Visioned "The committee visions an expansion of rural electrification not as yet generally believed possible,” the report said, pointing out only 10 per cent of the nation’s 6.200,000 farms now have electricity. “Extensions of rural electrification would raise agricultural operations to a more productive plane, and recreate agricultural life and culture. The indirect effects would be a powerful stimulant for industry, for it would create a huge demand for durable producer and durable coasumer goods.” The board said the country’s major water districts—the north and south Atlantic basias. the Great Lakes and St. Lawrence waterway, the upper, lower Mississippi basins, the Red River, Missouri, Ohio and Colorado basins, and the north and south Pacific regions—now are operating generators producing 9,773,302 kilowatts for public use. Point to Waterway Their potentialities, the committee estimated, were 55.000,000 kilowatts, sufficient to carry out its protrram of power for all with distribution facilities to make it available. The report pointed to the St. Lawrence waterway as an example. “The international rapids of the St. Lawrence River affords an opportunity for the largest single development of power in the United States—over 500.000 of kilowatts of primary power would be available. The proposed installed capacity is 825.000 kilowatts. “According to the New York Power Authority, energy could be produced at an extremely low cost, so low, in fact, that the part allocated to this service could be transmitted a distance of 300 miles to New York City and sold in competition with that from the existing sources of supply.” The committee cited the transmission lines in eastern Pennsylvania and New Jersey capable of carrying 220.000 volts of electricity

FAMED MEDICINE MAKER DEAD FROM PNEUMONIA H. Frederick Behrens Started as Clerk in Father’s Store, By T'nitrrl Press WHEELING, W. Va„ Jan. 18— H. Frederick Behrens, who grew from a clerk in his father's store to a nationally known figure in the manufacture of patent medicine, died of pneumonia yesterday at his i home here. He was 64. He was president of Sterling Products, Inc., Bayer Cos., Inc., and Charles H. Phillips Chemical Cos., and a director of Drug. Inc. He was also a member of the Republican State Executive Committee. T SCHEDULES COURSES Short-Time Classes in High School Subjects Offered. Short-time courses in high school s* E jects, including both coramer--1 and cultural studies, are being scheduled by the Federal Educational Service at the Young Men’s Christian Association, it was announced today. to prove its statement that although undeveloped water power projects are. with few exceptions, remote from industrial centers, the current they could produce would be economical. Interconnection of the country by high-voltage lines has progressed,' the report said, “primarily for the ! economies effected through in- | creased use of existing generating ! facilities, and the interchange of j power among water power plants where low water conditions are not ' coincident in time.” The committee recommended study of the British “grid” system of energy transmission, a network planned so practically, all generating and attributing interests in that country can effect a connection. Its objectives, the report said, i “are to provide all sections of the ; nation with as much present and ! future power as they respectively require, and to make it available at '•the lowest cost.” The board suggested that the transmission lines, so important to American development, might be controlled by a Federal board, and stated that the Government should finance from 30 to 100 per cent of I new power projects.
