Sinopsis

Excerpt from Looking Squarely at the Water Power Problem

This is a personal appeal for water power legislation. The author confesses that he has an old-fashioned ambition to do a constructive thing - to assist in the creation of an industrial opportunity in a neglected place and to make homes on land now silent. He also cherishes a hope of reasonable and wholesome reward. These are two honorable incentives which have, from the beginning of things, animated individual effort. Some people re gard such motives distrustfully but it cannot be believed that such sentiments which, if manifested in an earlier day, would have impeded or stifled our greatest commercial achievements, will long survive in the present day. Therefore, the author will state his case in all frankness and be confident that those who cannot accept his conclusions will have no reason to misconstrue his purpose.
