Director Joseph Hyde Pratt
Sends Ont Circular To Cham

Bodies; Will Also Aid In Es
., tahlishing Drainage Districts
In Worth Carolina
Investigation of thowater resources
f North Carolina with reference to
their use in developing electricity, es
pecially in the vicinity of small; muni
elpalitle, is proposed by the North
Carolina Geological and Economic Sur
vey, according to a circular just sent
out by the director. Dr. Joseph Hyde
Pratt. This circular which. has been sent
to many' of the commercial and mnici
pal organisations of the State gives the
plan a follows:
"The North Carolina Geological and
Economic Survey is about to initiate a
thorough study and investigation of the
water resources of tho State: This will
include such projects as water power,
municipal water supply, drainage, flood
control. Irrigation, the compilation of
rainfall and stream flow data, etc. The
investigation will be undertaken by di
viding th SUt into districts, each one
of which will be investigated and a re
port prepared. Work witl be underUk
en first in such districts aa apply, in or
der of their application for service, and
in the general degree of importance
which the investigation would kava to
the people of the State. Municipalities,
chambers of commerce, manufacturers,
agricultural associations, and individuals
may make application for oae or more
specific purpose. A field party will
begin in June to conduct investiga
tions.
Stat Bkh la Waterpower Per cent.
The applicant will be "expected to
defray 80 per eent on the field expenses
for such an examination. This ia neces
sitated by the small amount of funds
TJorth Carolina is rich in sraterpovr
era of Its than 3,000 horsepower. There
ar numerous municipalities and indus
tries in th Stat which could obtain
their light and -power cheaper by local
hydro-electri development. Indeed in
some instances industries hav left th
Stato because- they could not' get ade-
uato power,. ' although undeveloped
waterpowers were near by. The increas
ing cost and difficulty in obtaining coal
have made the development Of our water
power imperative. Moreover, on ac
count of the increasing use of electricity
on the farm, it ia of great importance
that' our agricultural population should
benefit by the natural resources -of the
State, which are only awaiting develop
ment. ' It is for these reason that the
Survey i undertaking this study and
investigation. It is prepared to co-operate
with one or a number of towns
or industries in the development of lo
cal waterpowers.
With the rapid growth of our towns
and cities the problem of an adequate
water supply is becoming iacreasingly
aeate. The Survey will eo-operat with
municipalities in an investigation of th
water resources of a district suitable
for water supply and will suggest meth
od best adapted for the utilization aad
development of these resources.
The Survey ha investigated and
been instrumental ia th creation of the
great drainage projects now underway
or completed in the BUte. It will glad-
aid similarly in the formation of
new districts and ia the promotion of
drainage work for malaria preveation,
' uaar control Klver Flood.
Th regulation of th flood flow of
streams to prevent damsg to munici
palities or agricultural land ia becom
ing of increasing importance. It ia fre
quently possible to combine' this fan'
provement with one of tho other devel
opmeata described above. - In certain
parts of th Bute, notably oa the Ca
tawba, waterpower developments have
served to regulate th flood flow, and
prevent much damage which previously
occurred to farm ' lands, towns and
structures at high stnges of the river,
"The increasing agricultural and in
dustrial development of the State ha
necessitated greatly increased facilities
for transportation of product. In some
instances this can be met by improving
th existing waterways of the State, so
mat uey may be more suitable for navl
gation. The Survey ia prepared io ia-
veatigat aad report nnoa the feasibil
ity of project of river regulation for
nooa control or navigation. , :

placency, Church Deserts Its
Work, Says Marshall
Washington, May f. Vic President
Marshall spesking her today with Sir
Auckland Geddos, fh British ambassa
dor at an Interehureh World Movement
mass meeting, declared the church must
prove its work by its, faith and that it
"is idle to legislate for purity if the
priest, above hi book, is to leer at his
neighbor's wife." .
"It is vain to enact laws punishing
murder,"the Vice President added, "if
the elders are to continue working lit
tle children to death. It is useless to
forbid larceny if the deacons sre to
make large church contributions out of
excess profits wrung jointly from labor
and the ultimata-consumer."
Sir Auckland expressed belief that the
church had not kept pace with the in
dustrial revolution of the last century
and that religion en which civilization
is based had been forgotten in the
great cities."
Cities Draw Democracy Down.
"The material of the city today," th
Ambassador .declared, "is the millstone
around the neck of democracy which is
dragging democracy down and making
it possible for a determined minority,
through blackmail or corruption, to
compel people to agree to vote for
things they do not want. That way
lies destruction and disaster, and th
loss of all freedom that the eenturne
hav won."
Vie President Marshall told the audi-
bc that tho church with a com. Inc. it

"Awake oh Zion, and if you really
believe in th communion of tho Saints
prove K by consistent conduct," Mr.
Marshall said.- "This is no holier than
thou message.- I myself am a sinner.
Church Negligent In Duty.
"The man on the street is nit tired
of the Words of the Naaarene. When
the ehureh takes back the disciplining
of the moral and religious life of its
members, when it trains up it children
with xed views, vhen it proves its
faith, la the communion f the SatnU
by its works, its eourtr'will be thronged
with worshippers, aad there will be no
need for patchwork legislation to rec

Waskiogtno, May 2. The- chances that
the Delaware legislature will ratify the
Susan B. Anthony amendment to the
Federal constitution when it reconvenes
Wednesday are better than Jhey have
been at any time ainee the session open
ed, more than a month ago, ia tbe opin
ion of Assemblyman J, V. Lyons, of
Wilmington, who is in Wsshington for
a conference with Chairman Will Hays,
of the Bepublican National Committee.
- Though the recess of ten days ha
served to brighten the situation for the
suffragists,' Mr. Lyons is by no mean
eoafident' that Bclawar la" 6mg;"to
alleviated, he says, another arises and
at time the success of th amendment
In tbe little slate seems as far away as
the rainbow's end.
In effect, he believes that the mem
bers of the lower House opposing rati
flcatlon have gone on record so bitterly
against tatiOeation until they cannot
alKxrt face without sacrificing their po
litical fortunes. Lyons is the champion
of the suffragists in the lower branch
and be makes the statement "with due
deference to political expedience.
White personally insisting that h has
employed every legitimate means to
bring abont ratification, his own attitude
justifies the charge made by Democrats
that the Bepublican party bosses do not
want to see the suffrage amendment rat
ified iu time for the women of the na
tion to bo voting in the November elec
tion. -
lie construes the reeess of the Dela
ware body as a victory for the suffra
gists which may he productive of a sufU
cient change iu sentiment to force the
ratification resolution through the
bouse. When Alfred I. Dupont changed
front some time ago and publicly pro
claimed that he favored the extension of
suffrage to women, the presideut pro
tern of the Senate followed the lead and
enough votes are now assured to put tbe
resolutiou through tbe upper branch.
Just at the time when the success of
the amendment in Delaware aecmed
most assured, it is sal6ThereVThernf
frnirists were set back by the injection
of the Irish question, a play staged by

WshingtonMay 2. Hi Johnson,
California's conWbutioTTlo the radical
Republican element in the United
States Senate, is going to make a big
noise in North Carolina if the plans
of Iredell Mearrs, of Wilmington, local
prototype of the Cahfornian, go
through.
Tentative arrangements were mad
yesterday by Mr. Meares for Johnson
and two of his Senatorial Colleague
and protagonists to visit th principal
cities in North Carolina between now
and the primaries on- June 6 for- th
purpose of stimulating a sentiment suffi
cient to swing the Tar' Heel delegate
to the Johnson strength after tbe con
vention ahsekles . are unfastened and
Judge Jeter Pritehard '". out of th
race.
Kenyon, of Iowa, and B..su, of Idaho,
are the two Johnson boosters who will
probably be selected to speak in Ash
vllle, Charlotte,' Greensboro and pos
niUlw Baleigh. The original program of
having Johnson himself visit Wilming
ton ha been practically abandoned be
came of th inaccessibility of that etfy
to ihrough train -' rinl ' now speed
m.-is everything to Johnson' cyclonic
rush towrrd the, nomination. ' '
Hoover Strength Drop. '
'' Hoover s.: .gth : having dropped
aai-ng . the Republican with th an
nouncement f roar hi dt etor that Boise
Penrose, the bos of the Old Guard,
would be at" th Chicane-convention
with, bulls. .oa. Johnson aaa -duainn J ha.
nk hrcnnui the laailinv .ttibrn in tn
flesh the party- d it ia a matter
of serious debate ar to -' what must be
done with him. . t" . . - - ?
Most polities', observer agree that
th Johnson sweep ha been entirely
too wide in it movement for the Cali
fornia Senator to be Unlimited a a
serious contender f t th Presidential
nt lnation by the assurance thet he
Can have the Vice President's plac ba
tli ticket without a fight, in fact have
it ta a silver plat if h will tak it.
At the same time, the Bepublican
themselves r.re aware of the fact that
th big VJte Johf-soa has beea receiv
in'ir" over the other candidate is not
a straw to show how tbe wind ia blow
ing on th League of Nations. John--
son has been receiving the preferen
tial Tote in state where the" sentiment
is strongly in favor of the Versailles
document. Interest the coming week
center largely around the primarie in
Johnson's own State, where he will
probably receive the anti-league vole
in addiMoa to his own following. Her. .
bert Hoover will get tbe Bepublican
vote favorable to the League of Nation,
having allowed hi nam '.o b entered
first in California.
Wood Backer Also Baay.
Senator Johnson will probably speak
at two points in North Carolina, Mr.
Meare thinks, after consultation with
Beprcsentative.Elsto-i and other John-
son managers nere. Messrs. aenyoa v
and Borah .will probably follow him
and speak at four plaos in th State ;
Th program with respect to th in
vasion of North Carolina will be defi
nitely determined with the return to
Washington Tuesdar of Be a ator John
son, who will confnt with. Mr. Meares.
NotbinL Li being done in tbe way or
noise-making Inr the Leonard Wood
bseke.s looking to corralling a part of
th,. delcgatciJroin North Carolina. Tbe
Wood manager in the State were
recently visited by Senator George H.
Moses, Southern nmager, who gsv out
an Interview in Greensboro that the ,
Wood forces had all the money they
wanted and that a reasonable percent- . -age
of the huge campaign fund would
be distributed in North Carolina,
Johnson must, thereforo, depend on
focusing the interest of the Tar Heel
delegates by hi platform. . . ,
Knox Latest Entry. '
The latest entry into the list of Be?
publicans anxious to direct the -affairs
of the United States is ijenator rnn
andor C. Knox, who will probably rid
into the Coliseum on tho strength of
peace resolution, which th ttenat i '
wiU probably pass before the conven.
4Ui mMii nl which. - it is eartain. .
President Wilson will take a delight .
in vetoing. ' ' ' -
The Ho-f aired ' Knox peace resolu- -
tion," satd Homer Cummings, chairman
of the Demoeratie national committee,
today, "which has Just been reported
by the Senate committee on foreign '
relations, is renewed evidence of the .
moral leprosy which ia eating out tho
heait of the Bepublican party. In the
name of esce it proposs dishonor. -
"An analysis of the resolution dis- :
closes th-t, Orst it recognize th defect
in the recent Bouse resolution, whiea
ttAmpted to make a separate treaty
with Germany by act of Congress. Sec
ond, as an alternative proposition, ,it
requests the President V. to" commence
negotiations for. a separate peace with
Germany. Thi-d, it seek to terminate,
by a paper resolution, a state of war
without protecting American rights.
Fourth, it attempts to take advantage
of the provisions of th treaty of Vers .
