FEDERAL AGENTS
Clash With PLANT
Forestry Service and Hydro
Electric Co. in Squabble
Over Building Permit

Differences between the forestry
service and the Hydro electric COM
pany have come to a head with def
mite order from the federal agents to
stop the work of the company now In
progress near Bodie. The Hydro cleo
trio company is a small concern that
purposes to sell power to the mines.
1t attempted to run its lines across a
corner of the Mono national forest
without going through the prescribed
formality of consulting the govern
ment. The resident supervisor of the
forest district at once interfered to
has replied that il believes itself with
in the law and intends to proceed &C
cordingly.
The issue thus drawn has resulted
in deadlock The forestry bureau
CONSTITUTES it as its duty to hold up con-
struction until the permit is obtained.
The power company has stated that 1t
will resist any attempt to hinder its
plans kilograms have been sent to
case.
The power company has taken the
position that un0er law of long
standing it is entitled to cross the for
est without restriction. The local for
estry officials hold, however, that un-
der the statutes of 1901 the power
company must file it's maps and go
through the formality of applying for
the permit, for which a small annual
fee is charged. The company insists
that to follow this rule would delay
the construction work for a year with
consequent financial loss. AS COM
promise an offer has been made to do
the plat work as the construction pro-
crosses.
Forest Supervisor Maule of the Mono
district and Special Agent Elliott of
the local Office have been handling the
case for the government. The power
company is owned largely in San Fran
cisco. William H. Nelson is one of the
principal stock holders.
