PARIS, Aug. II. (IV p.) Italyi "beyond the Alps"' to Xapoleon, lies within the Alps to the France of to day. . . This Is not tho geographical per version it seems to be. The rich val leys beyond the mountains meant wealth to Bonaparte the scenery and the water power of the Alpine barrier itself spells wealth to modern France. The scenic value of the Alps has long brought riches to France. The growing exploitation of winter sports in the mountains is adding- to the summer income. And now, short of coal, France is again turning to her mountains for aid. America develop ed her water power first and is now beginning to exploit her scenery. Ir. France the reverse is true. The glacial rivers which abound in the France Alps are being enslaved. Torrents are being brought in huge pipe lines down the sides of the moun tains and even through tfcem by tun nels until the traveller, amazed at tlte streams of water spurting out of solid rock, begins to wonder if Moses didn't lead the children of Israel through the French Alps instead of through Spria.t . Already in ITsines Glrod in t'gines the French have the only steel mill in Europe operated entirely by hydro electric power. Factories for the making of acetylene and other pro ducts are scattered along the rivers. Only a beginning has been made. "White coal," as the French term water power bids fair to solve the fuel problem of France. AGREEMENT REACHED j MEX1CALI. Aug. 20. (U. P.)
