presentation and in the course OF his
remarks called attention to the good
work performed by DR.. Ragan since
his appointment last January. With
becoming modesty DIR. Ragan accepted
the handsome gift and in fitting words
thanked his friends for their thought

The badge is typically Californian.

BOWERS PLAN
NOT IN FAVOR
Majority of Alameda City
Trustees Oppose Project
of Purchasing Current
VOICE THEIR OPINIONS
Advocate the Buying and
Installing of Machinery
in the Municipal Plant

ALAMEDA, Oct. City Trustee Will
liam M. Bowers plan to purchase ex-
ira current from outside sources for the
municipal electric plant does not meet
with the approval of President Joseph
F. Forderer, r. e. Combs and C. ].
Hammond of the Board of Trustees.
The fifth member of the body, DIR. H.
M. Pond, is at present touring the
Eastern States, and his attitude toward
such proposition is unknown.
In opposition to Trustee Bowers plan
President Forderer said:
l do not think. as Mr.. Bowers does. that the
plant is being dvertaXed or that there is any
Immediate danger OF some OF the expensive
machinery being burned out The machines
are guaranteed to carry Is per cent more load
than they have vet had to carry. / believe
that we can accommodate all our patrons dur
ing the winter without Improvement. Mr..
Bowers plan to bring in power from outside
sources would entail expense of nearly $4,000
TO make the necessary connections, and then
we should not have power enough to supply
the city If our own plant broke down. We
have provided literally for the municipal
plant in the coming tax levy and | believe
that with careful management we pur-
chase and install machinery that will suffice
for some time to come.
Trustees Combs and Hammond af-
firmed that they were against the buy
ing of power outside, and favored Pres
ident Forderer's project of adding new
machinery to the works.
