But the states own the rivers. In an Interstate navigable stream the wnt s the state's, not Uncle Sam's; the rive ted under the water Is the ttnte's. not the nation's. The naUonal power extends merely to upervlslona of that stream with rafcrene to navigation. The. state may not oi. struct or authorize obstruction of naviga tion, save on agrees. A number of year ago an engineer In vestigated the rapids in the Mlsglsslppl near Keokuk. Hn saw u magnificent power opportunity, raised $80,000,000 to de velop It, and went to Washington to get I permission to build a dam. After invest!- gaUnu by the government engineers thf government authorized the dam. on th condition that two great lock be bult 1 to carry vessels around It. In cotisidew , tion of this work, which is conceded to bo an Improvement rathor than an ob stacle to navigation, the government per 1 mits the dam to bo built and a total of 1 300.0CO to 300,0f0 of power to be de veloped, which the power company may use, sell or give away, aa it likes. Thero Is no substantial restriction or control as to capitalization, price of the power or torm of franchise. Illinois and Iowa own tho water to th middle of the Btream, Each state owns the river bed underneath the watqr to the middle of tho stream. Yet tho federal government authorizes erection of vast works on this land of the states, to Im pound the water of the states, and with it to make power. When those works were authorized, j number of years ago, nobody wag paying muoli attention to water power problems. Nobody suspected a water power trust, tienator Cummins, who was seven year governor of Iowa, says that tbe promuteri never approached tho Iowa authorities for permit, license or franchise. They reilod entirely on the federal authority, which us a matter of fact extended only to the Incident of abstracting navigation. Tho same Is true of Illinois, Neither state Interfered, or has ever Interfered with th company. It is about to begin operation of its great plant, the biggest of the kind In America. Only very recently has the Idea occurred to legisla tors nnd administrators In either' state that it would be worth while to Inquire by what authority the corporation Is con verting Illinois and Iowa water and land into electrio power to bo shlpited off Into a third state Missouri. Connecticut has a case not very dif ferent, save that it affects an Intrastate streum. A company wants to dam the Connecticut river and develop a hug power. Tho water In that river belongs to Connecticut. So does the river bed under the water. Yet the Washington government, whose authority Is limited to protection of navigation, proposes authorize that use of the state's land and water, on condition that the company shall erect locks to Insure against ob structloii of navigation. The national government, however, Is going further in the Connecticut river than It went In the Mississippi river cave Recognizing the demand for some-governmental suporvis on of power concerns thi. they may uot Impose excessive chaises. overcapitalise their properties and claim perpetual rights, the government ha negotiated with the promoters, and, propose to have congress, In granting the dam permit, write Into It certain pro visions for cqtnpensaUdn to the national government, control of ratea, limitation of the tenure and tho like. As a matter .of practical administration, experience has proved that when such matters are left to the states thero Is, In fact, no regula tion at alt, or none that is effective. Thi Illluols-lowa case shows how It workx. I Connecticut, like the two western state, ! hits not Interposed objection to the na 1 tlonnl government felling tho state's prop 1 erty and taking the procccds, lt Is a very big and practical question, Neither the state nor the nation can ac alone In giving permission for develop ment of powers If the authorities of eac.i be fully exercised. Doth might utterly dis agree, and make the development Impos sible; or each might rely on ho other t Impost necessary restrictions, and so let the exploiters escape all regulation. ThW latter has been the actual experience- lu most cases. In the twilight zone of uncertainty us between state and federal -sovereignty have wandered aimlessly about, letting this inost valuable of remaining;, national resources get' away from all ownership or control In behalf of the , public.
