Special Master Charles E, Hugh- es, hearing testimony, set October 2, for argument by counsel represcnt- | ing the complainant lake states. If a final order is given C 'hicago by the | Supreme Court in 1929, litigation will be ended. Chicago is permitted under a rul- ing by the Secretary of War, which is validated by the Supreme Court, to withdraw 4,176 cubic fect per se- cond from the lake, The court in 1928 ruled that in increasing the version" to 8,500 feet per second, the sanitary district of Chicago had de- fied the authority of the Government. It is therefore the duty of this court," the decision continued, "by an appropriate decrp2 to compel re- duction of the diversion to a point six years where it rests on a legal basis and | thus to restore the navigable capacity of Lake Michigan to its proper lc- vel. The sanitary district authoritics have much too long delayed the needed substitution of suitable scw- age plants as a means of avoiding diversion in the future." The claim of the lake states against Chicago and Illinois had to do witw alleged infringement of riparian rights and a reported fall of six inch- es in the lake level, Suit was brought by Wisconsin whicli was subsequent ly joined by Minnesota, Ohio, #1: Pennsylvania. Michigan and York states instituted separate suits while Mississippi, Tennessee, Ken- tucky, Louisana and Arkansas be- came co-defendants with Chicago and Illinois. In the alignment of the states, the interests of Canada in the situation, aside from its immediate interest in the navigability of Lake Michigan, is demonstrated; the southern states join with Illinois and Chicago, while the northern states oppose. The tak- ing of 10,000 cubic feet of water per second, or whatever it may be, by Chicago from Lake Michigan is call- ed a "diversion," but it is pointed out here it is rather an "abstraction," since it involves the transference of water from the St. Lawrence water shed to the Mississippi shed. An early explorer observed that by cutting a canal across a half mile of prairie it would be possible to pass from the St. Lawrence Valley to that of the Mississippi. In 1848 the canal was cut, joining the Chicago and Iil- inois rivers; in 1871 the swelling mid- Western metropolis began to take water from Lake Michigan and in 1905 have reached second. Canada has consistently denied the right of Chicago to abstract water to the detriment of. other interests on the lakes, protesting on six different occasions. In the litigation between abstraction was reported to 10,000 cubic feet pér the states, the D8minion has merely | watched proceedings.
