WHITE ROCK PLAN
IS NEAR REALITY,
STATES ENGINEER
Here to Determine Size of
Original Unit Location of
Dam and Its Depth, Says
A, G, HiIIberg,

That the long-droamed-o White
Rock canyon project is going TO
become q reality was the statement
last night of A. c. Hillberg. consult
ing engineer. Mr. Hillberg is in New
Mexico making investigations for
eastern capitalists, who have decided
to back the project. he stated Ac-
cording 10 the engineer. there IS no
stock to sell, no bonds to sell and no
bonus is asked.
Mr. Hillberg is to determine the
size of the plant TO be- built first find
the depth for the foundation of the
dam and decide upon the location in
the canyon of the dam. He will go
To White Rock canyon to begin bor-
ings Wednesday
Engineer Speaks at Club.
Mr.. Hillberg spoke to citizens last
night al the Commercial club. lie
urged the encouragement of the use
of electric power and asked for a
report on the usc Of mesa land for
the growing of SUGAR bcets. one OF
the possibilities of the plan is the use
Of electricity for pumping water ON
land that can not be reached hY the
low-line bitches
An ultimate expenditure of two and
one-half millions would be required
for the size of plant contemplated,
according to MT Hillberg. About
one-half Of this amount he believes,
would he the origina investment to
construct a plant OF sufficient 2al a.
city to furnish electricity for The
present demand
Not 10 Compete
Mr. Hillberg stated that the purpose
of the people he represents is not TO
compete with power plants i'm Alhu-
auerque or other cities, but to furn-
ish them electricity AT 30 cheaper rate
than they can generate il. TWO com
panies are contemplated, one for Sen
Grating the power at the canyon and
the other for transmitting it to Las
Vegas. santa Fe and Albuquerque.
The latter company would sell the
current TO the central companies.
Mr. Hillberg said he came here eX-
pecting TO find market fer about
10000 kiloWats but believed he would
De able 20 go back TO New York with
the report that 5000 would be near
err the mark.
He estimated three or four months
as the time in which work would be
started.

big HILL SHIP HAS
MORE TOURISTS
Than BEFORE

"Of the $50 cabin passengers who
are now coming TO Honolulu in the
Great Northern, at least $50 are visit
ors who would never have seen Hawaii
had il not been for the Great Northern
and the company's policy of adyertis-
ing the islands" said Fred. L. VALID
ron, president of Fred L. Waldron,
Ltd, Honolulu agents for the Hill
liner, today.
Yesterday the local agents received
wireless from Capt. A. Amman, the
liners commander, giving the number
Of cabin passengers on board this trip
as 359. This is $50 more than the
number brought by the Great
Northern on her first regular call here
on the triangular run, December B.
Then she had only 22O first and second
cabin passengers.
The Great Northern is due to ar
rive at Hilo at o'clock Wednesday
morning, and to dock here, at Pier q,
at 10 o'clock Thursday morning. The
radio from Capt. Amman gave the lin
er's freight cargo for Honolulu as $50
tons, and mail for here to be 354 bags.
There are IS autos and III bags of
mall for Eilo.
In commenting upon the compar-
atively small amount of freight the
Great Northern is bringing, 9S5 tons.
the local agents this morning said
that If Honolulans should wake up
some fine morning to find the Great
Northern no longer on the Honolulu
run, the lack of freight patronage from
the coast here would be one OF the
reasons BY the close of this month,
the Great Northern will have brought,
in two voyages, total Of 579 pas
sengers to Honolulu.
"The Great Northern should have
from 1900 to 1000 tons of freight for
Honolulu on this trip" said Mr.. Wal
dron. Honolulu merchants and other
shippers are not doing their share
when out of all the freight shipped
here from the coast they give the
Great Northern hardly thousand
TONS The liner can carry approx
mately $500 tons dead weight.
