Swedes Protest
McCdrran Act

The Union Of Swedish Seamen
has joined in the united protest
action taken by the European
Seamen's declarations against GER
tain provisions of the McCarran
Act, which regulates the entry of
persons into the United States.
The protest is especially direct
ed against those measures which
provide for a frightened control
over seamen's shore leave and the
shortening of the period permitted
between shipping out and in from
one vessel to another.
The Authorities at certain ports,
especially those at the Gulf and
Pacific ports, have in practice
withdrawn all permission to stay
during such intermediate periods,
an interference with the individu-
ais right to choose mis- place of
employ which is strongly repudi-
ated by the seamen.
In cases where permission is
granted, certain fees are charged,
procedure against which the
Swedish Embassy in Washington
has likewise protested.

Scandinavians
In Joint Project

AT a recent meeting in Oslo,
representatives of the welfare
councils for the Danish, Swedish
and Norwegian merchant marines
approved plans for establishment
of a Scandinavian Seamens Home
in Antwerp. Due to be in opera
ton by Jan. l, 1854, the home
will have 80 beds and spacious
club rooms in a new Seamen's
Center now being built by the
Belgian Government.
The Norwegian Welfare Office
has representatives in y foreign
ports and operates 6 seamen's
homes abroad. 1t has been instru-
mental in forming sports clubs
aboard $50 Norwegian ships, as
well as study circles that have
more than 1900 active members.

Sweden To Build Its Largest Power
Station; National Output Up COZ

will raise Sweden's output of
electricity in six or seven years
about 20 million kiloWatt-hours to
33.5 million. OF last years pro-
duction Approximately 20 billion
nine billion were generated by
publicity owned power stations,
about ten billion by private COM
panies, and one billion by munich
pal plants. Steam generation ac-
counted for only five per cent of
the total. Power consumption in
creased last year by 6.5 per cent,
or 1900 million kilowatt- hours,
and it is expected to expand at
approximately the same rate for
many years.

THE SCANDINAVIAN AMERICAN
Biz Town Plan For Greater Stock holm

Coinciding with Stockholm's
Tooth anniversary, which will be
observed this year, Sweden's cap
ital has received its first compre-
hensive long-range town plan,
based on years of careful re-
search.
Stockholm proper, according to
the voluminous report and fore
cast, will never quite reach one
million inhabitants. BY 1860, it
is calculated, it will count some
100000 souls, while a decade later
Greater Stockholm, including the
nearby garden cities, will be
able to claim a total of 1.3 mil
lion residents. The inner, or CEN
trail, part of Stockholm, now
housing 422,000 inhabitants, will
eventually consist preponderantly
of office structures, department
stores, and government agencies,
while the suburbs closest to the
capital will retain their present
characteristics of sleeping quart
er's for the city workers. The

Sweden's largest water power
station will be built on the Ume
River, above the northwestern
port city of Umea, on the Gulf of
Bothnia. Work will probably De-
gin in the fall. The new plant will
be named Stornorrforsen and have
capacity of 375,0 kilowatts. 1t
will thus Outdistanoe the Har-
spranget station, which was open
ed early in 1852 and has a capa-
city of nearly 100000 kilowatts.
Harspranget cost 1923 million
kronor, while Stornorrforsen viii
require an estimated 200 million.
The water at Stornorrforsen
will be led through a mile-long
inflow tunnel to the plant. the
poWerhouse of which is to be
blasted out of the solid rock. 1t
will then flow into the river via
tunnel almost three miles long
This tunnel will be the biggest
ever bored through a mountain in
Sweden. Such developments are
greatly facilitated by a new rock
drilling method, which is known in
many countries as the Swedish
tunneling method. 1t is also used
in mining operations.
