Produktbeschreibung
Excerpt from Hearings in the Matter of the Granting of Permits for the Transmission From the Dominion of Canada Into the United States of Power From the Niagara River Secretary Taft. This morning was set for the hearing of the order to be made on the reports with reference to the water-power situation at Niagara, on the Canadian side, or rather with reference to the importation of horsepower and the division of the amount to be allowed between the companies making application for it. I have asked the Chief of Engineers to be here and also the members of the Niagara Waterways Commission. I think they are all represented. The only question to be settled now is that of the order of hearing. Is Mr. McFarland present? Mr. McFarland. Yes, sir. Statement Of J. Horace M´farland, President Of The American Civic Association. Secretary Taft. Mr. McFarland, your position, as I understand you from your letter, is that you oppose the importation of any horsepower from Canada? Mr. McFarland. With certain exceptions, Mr. Secretary. Secretary Taft. Then, possibly, as you take that position, you had better be heard first. Mr. McFarland. I would be very glad to be heard first. We have here copies of our brief. Secretary Taft. I will give you the opening and the close. Mr. McFarland. There are also representatives here, Mr. Secretary, of a number of other organizations, whose names it might be well to have at this time. Secretary Taft. You represent the civic association, do you? Mr. McFarland. The American Civic Association, Mr. Secretary. I may say also that Judge J. Iv. Potter is here to speak as one of the commissioners of the New York State Reservation at Niagara. That is a commission appointed by the State of New York, as you are probably aware. Mr. F. W. Stevens represents the special Niagara committee of the Chamber of Commerce of the State of New York. Mr. F. B. De Berard represents the Merchants´ Association of the city of New York. Air. H. E. Gregory represents the American Scenic and Historic Preservation Society.
