BITTER AGAINST hoard

There is considerable bitterness
among the members of the association
against the present Harbor Commis-
sion, and IT is understood that in con-
junction with the water front legisla-
tion asked by the body pressure will
be brought to bear on the Governor to
assure that in future more efficient
service viii be given by the commits
sion.
On a day to be selected by the COM
mittee having the project in charge
automobiles will be secured for an ex-
cursion of members of the association,
State officials, the press and all others
interested, through the district the
State will be asked to condemn.
The desire is to generally improve
water front conditions In the Potrero
section. Hundreds of thousands of dol
lars worth of improvements are being
made there in addition to the enormous
railroad activities. The Southern Pa
cife is building immense train sheds
near the site of the proposed inland
harbor: the Santa Fe, Western Pacific
the United Railroads crosses it.
Street cleaning and grading are sub
jects of deep interest to the manufac-
turers, and it was resolved that the
members OF the association assist the
Street Repair Association in its cru
sade against wretched thoroughfares
Arrangements are being made to pave
Sixteenth street from Harrison to the
water, and it is probable that Fifteenth
street will receive attention next.
The San Francisco call., 1907-01-23
FAvoRs ELEVATED ROAD

Another important project that re-
ceived the attention of the association
was the proposition to build an ele-
waited railroad the entire length of the
water front, from East and Clay streets
to China Basin, to carry freight. This
is deemed the best solution of the
teaming problem. 1t was said that un-
less 1t was put into operation San
Francisco cannot hope to continue com
peting with northern distributing
points In a resolution adopted by the
association il was decided to appoint
a committee of five TO confer with the
committees of other bodies interested
in the question in order that united
action may bring about the desired re-
suit
The State will be asked to build this
belt road out of the harbor fund of
81. .000, 900 now on hand, or at least that
portion of the road that would lie upon
State land, the rest of the line to be
constructed by the city.
Still another project favored by the
association was the condemning of a
large tract of land along the water
front in the vicinity of Islais Creek for
the purpose of constructing ware
houses and docks and forming a suit
able district along the creek for the
loading and unloading of ships. This
would be patterned after the inland
harbors, which are so successful in
Holland. A bill asking for the appro-
priation of $750,000 for the purpose
will be introduced in the Legislature
at this session.

WANTS WATER REPORT

Both salt and fresh water supplies
received consideration, and 1t was
stated that the associations committee
had done much to secure the order for
the special election for the issuing of
bonds for the former, which will be
held a rhonth hence.
A resolution was passed providing
that the executive committee cooper
ate with James d. Phelan and ''other
citizens" with the object of drafting an
ordinance to be submitted TO the cleo
tors providing for the selection of three
competent engineers, who shall inves-
tigate various sources of water supply
and report within ninety days as to the
most practicable plan.
This action was taken because "the
Supervisors of the city and county of
San Francisco have decided to have a
report on only one water supply
A plan is ON foot to establish. in
conjunction with other commercial
bodies, a department devoted to rail-
road traffic matters, presided over by a
practical railroad man, to secure the
most advantageous rates possible and
facilitate the dispatch of business.

tory were present at yesterdays meet

Association In executive session YES
terdax afternoon. 1t has been rumored
for some time that n group of Southern
California hnanciers was anxious to
obfuin n footing here and that over
lures were being made to various COM
merciaI bodies for assistance in this
direction. The present demoraIixed
condition of the United Railroads gives
the Los Angeles people opening.
For some time committee of the
Potrero Association, which is one OF
the most influential bodies IN the city,
has been engaged In an attempt to Sc
cure better street car service through
the manufacturing district on the wa
ter front, as there are between 5000
and 60OO workers who must be taken
care of. At present the facilities are
meager and another effort will be made
to secure recognition for the Potrero.
Vice President Jacobs stated that the
association is anxious to secure all the
Transportation facilities 1t can and that
the building of any new line would be
welcomed with open arms. The pro-
posed new system is still in embryo,
however. and plans have not been de-
tailed to an extent which justffies an
authoritative statement, he said.
