TO G. GRAY MACDONALD WILL TAKE UP NEW WORK To Gather Information as to the Power Possibilities of the Province G. Gray Donald, who as chief hydro-grarher and member of the board of Investigation, has taken such an active part in the administration of the Water Act these past two years, has resigned his position as chief hydro-grapher to take up the work of investigation of water powers throughout the province. As Is well known the water power possibilities of British Columbia are enormous, but only a very small proportion has been utilized and, excepting those power sites which have been appropriated, the information and data available are very meagre. There are known propositions where- a single Installation would generate from 80,000 h.p.

to 100,000 h.p., many of from 40,000 p. to 60,000 h.p., and the full number of lesser powers will not be known for years. It is the intention of the government to prosecute these investigations actively. Engineering parties have already been sent out and Mr. Gray Donald is leaving shortly to assume supervision of the field work commencing on the Columbia River basin.

His headquarters will be near Nelson. MEN AND WOMEN WEEP IN COURTROOM Attorney Darrow Closes Argument in His Own Behalf Los Angeles, Aug. 15. "With almost the entire courtroom in tears, Clarence S.
