in geologists to advise engineers what
sort of earth erust underlies the dam
site, and wbat sort of forces nature
to likely to bring to beer to under-
mine foundations.
Three causes for dam failures were
enumerated by L. C, Glenn, profes-
sor of geology, Vanderbilt universi-
ty. They were all based oa Ignorance
about Uo eartk’s cruet eao la Uo
basin of the reservoir, another about
its rim, and the third at the alto of

ly is not a geologist, aad should not
rely on his own judgment for Bn
analysis of the terrain.
The aymposium oa dams was held
at the winter mooting of the Amer-
ican Institute of Mining and Metal-
lurgical Engineer*. It developed
some ft Ue ways in which nupposed-
ly “eternal rocks” may deteriorate
at rates suffietenaty -rapid to produce
vital changes ia safety of structures
intended for such long time use as
dame. The rocks have different rates
of wear due to weather, aad they
possess varlous kinds of susceptibili-
ty to leakage of water.

p Under a suit recently filed by the

general's opinion, Is on old lew de-
fining atreams 30 feet wide or more

over, Uo land that was sold pioneer
