Government to Allow Power to Be
Sent to Aid Industries Affected by
, Drought.
Washington, Aug. 28.—</P)—Army
engineers in charge of the Wilspp dam
hydro electric power plant unit will
start at least one of thj big turbines
atwork at once In «p effort to give
Inf reuses! power to the hniuttm fat
Hie southeastern Atlantitc states which
have been curtailed in their opera
tion* or compelled to shut down en
tiiiriy because of power shortage, due
to drought eondUiom.
Appeals from Senator George, of
Georgia and Other congressional offl
rials in the states affected, caused the
War Department to Inquire if the big
turbines in the dam could be put into
operation immediately. Major Gen
eral Taylor, chief of the army engi
neers, advised acting Secretary Daria*
'' office today that one turbine could be
started immediately, but would have
to run slowly until it could be thor
oughly dried out and begin a power
of 18,000 kilowatts per
hour.
It is the Intention of the War De
partment that this increase in power
should be made available under the
contract with the Alabama Power
Company and distributed through the
power company's system and relay
connections to points where emergency
conditions exist in industrial estab
lishments. The power company now
is working the steam plant at Muscle
Shoals to capacity and with the tur
bine output from the dam would be
able to carry about 80,000 kilowatts
ov>r its transmission lines from Mus
cle Shoals. The maximum carrying
rapacity of the transmission line is
about 85,000 kilowatts.

Philadelphia, Aug. 28.—UP)—An

watchmen and electricians to be left
In the mines after the suspension or
dered by the union last night becomes
effective in September.
Discussion of the matter still con
tinued, however, at the meeting of the
anthracite board of conciliation at the
Reading Terminal here. Leaders of
both sides expressed the hope that
agreement be reached by night. Oth
erwise, it was said the mines would
face a dilemma even more serious than
the walkout itself. Where idleness
would be only temporary in ill ef
fects, flooding and cave-ins which
maintenance men are left in the mines
to prevent, would be very serious. A
week’s neglect might easily cost the
industry a million dollars in damage,
it was said. A full meeting of the an
thracite industry will be held this
afternoon at the offices of the anthra
cite operators’ conference.
Crisis Passed.

question of maintenance men for
working t'.ie mine during the suspen

The arrangement provided that
