Millions lost annually through floods in Pennsylvania has caused Governor Sproul to take steps looking | to the stopping of such losses, as well | as the development of water-power, ! which in even greater value has been | the sea. = » GOVERNOR SPROUL the u aphy of the State, Pennsyvivania is among the greatest sufferers from flood losses, the many rivers having their head waters in the mountains, over 2,000 feet above sea level, and rushing down to within one, two or three hun dred feet of sea level, inside the boun. dary lines of this State alone. For the same reason, the water power po tentialities are great One hundred Rad sixty of the prin cipal towns in the State, situated on these rapidly Fiusing rivers, are ac cordingly subject to heavy flood dam. ages, while even I eu dam visited upon the Because of sual topogr age is annually inundated. The people of the State are called apon to pay a quarter of a million dollars each year for the replacement of bridges alone.

In Western States, where irrigation is required for tke raising of food crops, the business of river utilization has long been appreciated and pro- ductively carried on. In the Rast, where water is more abundant, it is only here and there that the rivers have been developed, and then only under the pressure of some great local neqessity like the impowmding of wa- ter for the supply of cities, The rivers of the Keystone State so destructive in floods include the Dela ware, with its tributaries, such as the Lehigh, Schuylkill and Lackawana; the Susquehanna with its North and West branches, and such tributaries as the Lackawana, Juniata and others; also the Monongahela, Allegheny, | Youghlogheny, Beaver and the upper { portion of the great Ohio itself. The greatest loss, however, is not from flood damage but the loss of the energy generated by” the rivers in rushing from the mountains to the sea-—power which if harnessed would far exceed in value the property losees { occurring annually through flood dam. age, and which would in the course of a few years pay for the cost of harnessing these rivers.
