MENTO, Feb. 16.-Assemblyman H N
Beatty and Senator Lester Burnett to-
day introduced bills which will provide
a way for paying for the Spring Valley
water company's plant in San Francisco
after it shall have been condemned for
the city's use under the terms OF the
bill introduced last week by Beatty.
The necessity of this additional meas
ure was pointed out editorially by The
Call last Saturday. The legislation
proposed today is an amendment to
section 1851 Of the code Of civil pro-
cedure relating to condemnation pro-
ceedings in eminent domain, the fol-
lowing being offered as an addition to
the present law:
In case the plaintiff is the state of
California, or is a public corporation.
and it appears by affidavit that bonds
of said state or public corporation must
be issued and sold in order to provide
the money necessary to pay the sum
assessed, then such sum may be paid at
any time within six months from the
date of such judgment; provided, fur
ther, that II the sale of any such bonds
can not be had by reason of litigation
affecting the validity thereof. then the
time during which such litigation is
pending shall not be considered a part
of the six months time In which such
payment must be made"
In the opinion of Beatty the proposed
amendment will be sufficient to protect
the city of San Francisco in condemn
ing the Spring Valley plant.
The purpose of this BILL" said
Beatty, lis to meet the objection that
San Francisco must have $4,000. 900 or
$50 900, 900 or whatever other amount
the court may determine to be the
value of the Spring Valley plant. on

mits the city and county to have time
