Canada owns its much of tho diverted water as the States do, and has inbjeeted as strenuously to losing it as have Chicago's neigh l:ors at home. i Man Canadians have felt that Canada's water rights were iflcuted in the Hughes report. Many Americans have felt -jllint by ignoring the Canadian interest involved, the United States was so antagonizing that country us to lose Canadian ro oncralion in bnildinir the desired Great I.akes-St. Lawrence va.terway to the sea. These fears seem unfounded on both B sides. J ' Canada was not a party to the suit in question. The suit merely concerned whatever American authority there mi'jht be for Chicago water diversion. That authority, Mr. Hughes : . . ' : j i i -i..t i-j . ii. iiunia, is vufttun in vuiij;ie;H, mm mis iteeii oeit'giueo 10 uie j i-.ccretary. of war, who issued the permit under which Chi-, OUT oi'go is now drawing water from the lakes for her drainage canal., The secretary of war might revoke-that permit. Or congress might order it revoked. Congress can do anything jl likes in the matter, if the supreme court adopts the Hughes Report as its .own decision. That is to say, congress can go fA far as our government's jurisdiction permits. But the (jurisdiction of the United States over the waters of the Great Lakes, which aie inUfrnational, is finally determined by international law. , There are treaties with Canada affecting the right of: cither Country to abstract water in which the other possesses r. right. Canada can object to Chicago diversion just as we vould object if Canada were emptying Lakes Michigan. Huron lid Erie by a canal from Georgian I'.ay into Lake Ontario. I may take a new treaty to settle the question, if Chicago diversion continues. Or it may take a court of arbitration. Jn any event, there need be no fear that justice will not be done to Canada, even though it is delayed somewhat. iM A ND bath robes with slippers rClM I ' ( ! ,1 'flPfkaTff'o oWV " ( i an extra shirt or two espe- 2?
