Federal control of water power debated in Wilson era policy
Washington February 19 officials unveil a plan asserting federal power to regulate water power projects on navigable streams while recognizing state equities. Secretary Garrison, backed by President Wilson, proposes permits issued by the War Department to public utilities under state law, with federal oversight to prevent discrimination and ensure public interests. The policy aims to end years of debate over state rights versus national regulation, relying on cooperation between federal and state governments. Garrison admits a misstep in reporting on the Roanoke river bill and vows a revised Senate report.
