TACOMA TOKYO PLANE WILL REfUEL OVER JUNEAU
Los Angeles to Spend $38, 8,OOO,OOO
 To End " Water Rights Controversy

LOS ANGELES, July 15.-After 20 years of feuds over water rights, Los Angeles hopes to end the con- troversyi by buying outright five towns and numerous ranches.
 The city plans to spend $3s,ooO,- 900 and reach out $50 miles to en- large existing water facilities, which are considered inadequate to supply the city until the Boulder dam sup ply is available.
 Bitterness among ranchers over water, diversion in the past has re- suited in dynamiting of water works and armed conflict with city off cers, and prolonged litigation.
 Besides buying outright the towns of Laws, Bishop. Independence, Big Pine and Lone Pine for $5,790 ,000 Los Angeles plans to build an H. mile tunnel to connect Silver lake with the Owens river, buy the Mono basin property and water rights, purchase $6,660,0O0 worth of privately-owned farm land, build more storage dams and enlarge its existing aqueduct.
 The money will be raised by a bond issue.
 Los Angeles has owned water rights on the upper reaches of the Owens river for 20 years, but ranch owners and business interests in the surrounding towns were bitter at diversion of the precious fluid from their territory. They felt the "mor- al right" to the water was theirs
 At one time 65 armed men stood off the city employees and sheriff's deputies le. three days while they let water pour through opened gates into their own semi-arid lands. Ar rests were made subsequently, but no convictions could be obtained.

FLYER EXPECTED HERE
 FRIDAY FOR GAS
Pacific Era Will Be Pilot.
 ed by Robert Wark and 1 Eddie L. Brown
TANKS TO BE FILLED
 AGAIN OVER NOME
City of Tacoma, with Har- old Bromley, to Leave
 for Orient, Too

Juneau has been selected as the aerial refueling station for the Pacific Era biplane on it's nonstop flight from Tacoma to Tokyo, which is expected to start next Friday, according to an Associated Press dispatch to The En- pire. Above this city, 450 gallons of gasoline will be hosed into the tanks of the trans-oceanic flyer either from m a C h in e that will come here especially for the purpose or from one of the planes of the Alaska Wash. ingtOn Airways.
 From Juneau. the route of the Pacific Era. piloted by Robert wark and Eddie L. Brown, will be by way of Nome, where another aerial refueling will take place. the tanks of the plane being filled there. From the Seward Peninsula camp, the course of the airship will be laid to the Kamchatka Peninsula and the Kurile Islands thence so | the Oriental destination.
 City of Tacoma Flight At the same time as the Pacific Era departs on its 4,8o0-mile jour ney the City of Tacoma, Harold Bromley pilot, will also leave Ta- coma for Tokyo, the Associated Press reports to The Empire, but the Bromley plane will not at tempt nonstop flight. The City of Tacoma is expected to pick up 300 gallons of gasoline from the beach of an unannounced island of the Aleutian chain.
 While both planes had been scheduled to take off before Friday the oyerhauling of the motors and the necessity for some repairs com- pelled a change in the originel plans. It is not entirely certain that the machines will be able to get away Friday. The Pacific Era is being subjected to critical ex- animation by experts.
 Repairs Are Needed
 On the City of Tacoma, discovery of the burning out of a collector ring exhaust requires replacement of the impaired material, and th.s work will take at least A hours, said Pilot Bromley.
 The Pacific Era is Fokker bi- plane with Rolls-Royce motor. Wark. who is the crafts chief pilot for its approaching expedition, IS 29 years old. His associate Brown is 23. Both are experienced and have done much flying from and to Seattle airports.
 The City of Tacoma's construc- ton and planned adventure has been financed by Tacoma citizens. This will be Bromley's second at- tempt, with their support and at their expense, to fly City of Ta- coma plane to Tokyo. Tn his first attempt last year, the plane was wrecked in trying to take off from the Tacoma field
