CALIFORNIA POWER

WASHINGTON Private enter
prises and public ownership advo-
Gates are battling here for the pos
session of CALIFORNIA; undeveloped
water-power resources.
Heavy gains have been checked
up on the side Of these private en-
terprises, but increased activity on
the part of the public ownership
forces in California indicate that the
turning point in the battle may soon
be reached.
Seventy-one applications for con-
cessions, involving plants with
total capacit of $4,000 horse
power, have been received at the
headquarters of the Federal Power
commission here. All but one are
from privately owned companies.
Some applications have been
passed on favorably and licenses
granted. Others are pending.
Among the bigger concessions al
ready put through are:
Pitt River Power company, plant
on Pitt river, tributary of Sacra-
mento river, in northern California
Capacity, $4,000 horsepower.
So ern California Edison COM
pany, plant on Big creek, east of
Los Angeles. Capacity, 425,0O0
horsepower.

er company. Capacity, $4,000 horse

io The only public ownership appli--
cation under consideration is tnae
of the city of Los Angeles. Per

of plants involving a total Capacity
of 100000 horsepower.
Whether the Los Angeles a2plca-

opinion that readjustment has gone

a level has been reached from which
a general resumption of business can

ment since that time. Tire produc-
ton has been we'll absorbed and
there are no stocks on hand suf-

Building construction men declare
now is the opportune time to con-
slider new building enterprises, ana
the farmers feel more hopeful be-
cause help is plentiful, the prices
of fertilizer are down and FARMING
implements are becoming more rea-
sonable in price.
The indications are that the low
point of depression in retail trade
was reached in July. August sales

Visit to Maui is Included in
World Press Congress Program

Plans for the visit of Maui of the
delegates and others who come to the
Worlds Press Congress in Honolulu
next fall have been taken up by the
entertainment committee at the CAPT
tai city along practically the lines that
vas suggested by the editor of this
paper at the meeting of newspaper
men of the Islands early last month.
l.. a. Thurston is chairman of the
committee on entertainment and has
written to ID. II. Case, secretary of
the Chamber of Commerce IN the sub
iect. Before writing he has had cor
versations with Senators Baldwin and
Rice, the latter director of the fair.
The subject is one for reference to
the Maui County Fair q Racing Asso-
citation quite as much as the Chamber
of Commerce for the visit is to be
timed for the fair period.
General Plan Suggested
Mr.. Thurston is still unable to fore
east the number of delegates and 9th
ers but says hat there will probably
be not less than 200 nor more than
400 and that it is plainly impossible
to transport and entertain such a num-
Der with the local Inter-Island boats
and so it is suggested to charter a
Matson or Shipping Board boat for say
a week TO take the party from Homo
lulu to Maui and Hawaii, and the com
mittee is now figuring on hat basis.
1t is suggested, he says, tina he
steamer leave Honolulu in the morn
ing and coast along the windward
coasts of Molokai and Maui to kahu-
lui, arriving in the afternoon. He
quotes Messrs. Rice and Baldwin as
saving hat the evening of the day of
arrival and the next day and evening
will probably be long enough for the
entertainment planned; that they
would be here during the fair when

every one will be so busy that a luau
would be impracticable but a good out
OF door program would be furnished
at the fair, including roping of steers.
riding etc, that next day the party
could visit lao Valley and drive
through Haiku, Makawao and up to
Kula or take other drives and have
further entertainment at the fair that
evening.
The plan is to utilize the steamer
as the sleeping and eating place of the
party subject to such accommodations
are as available ashore.
Mr.. Thurston asks for details at an
early date is to program of entertain
mcnt here that it may be included in
a folder to be issued for and sent to
the congress organization, the Homo
lulu committee not seeking to arrange,
plans for Maui folk.
Asks About Meeting Expense
He also asks whether Maui is will
ing TO assist in defraying any extra
steamer expenses and says the sug-
gestion in general is that those max
ing the trip pay a fixed sum based on
the ordinary cost of transportation to
Maui and Hawaii and return to Homo
lulu but that if the cost of a special
steamer is much greater than such
ordinary cost of ticket that local com
munities pay the extra cost. II is
assumed that he means Maui pay IN
proportion to the length of the voyage
and stay here and Hawaii its proper
ton for the length of the trip TO the
Big Island and stay there. Thus II the
party were two nights and a day here
and two days and a night at Hawaii
the two Islands would share alike in
the expense of the steamer over and
| above the revenue from the passeng-
| ers il there be such extra cost.
Honolulu Goes Strong
I'VE, in Honolulu" continues Mr..
Thurston feel that this Congress
gives Hawaii the greatest opportunity
FOR securing publicity that has ever
been offered. The delegates will rep
resent 40 different nations and consist
of the leading editors and publishers
from all over the world. If we give
them the time of their lives-and we
can do it, we will be getting good
value in return for it for the next gen
