SHASTA POWER
By CLEM WHITAKER
Word comes from Washington,
where hearings are now @, progress
a before the House Appropriations
Committee, that the Pacific Gas and
Electric Company has made an offer
to take delivery of the power output of the Central Valley Water Project at the Shasta and Keswick Dams
on a basis which would produce a
gross revenue to the: project of $5,567,000 a year—of which $5,147,000 is guaranteed irrespective of economic conditions!
News of the offer is of vital and
s. far reaching importance to California’s vast inland empire, urgently in
need of an augmented waiter supply
to meet war time farm production
quotas, as the terms of the offer are
such as to obviate the need of building transmission lines and _ other
y costly power units of the project.
This, in turn, should speed the construction of irrigation canals and
conduits to take the water to the
land, providing the offer is accepted.
The new offer was made to the
Reclamation Bureau —by James —B.
Black, president of the power company; and contemplates that the
company will use its existing trans'mission lines and build an additional lines which may be necessary io
transport Central Valley power.
The proposal also treats the Central hence! power output as ‘firm
. power,’’» the company agreeing to
pay as much for it as it would pay if
the power were ‘firmed up,’ thereby eliminating the proposed Antioch
steam plant. To make this possible,
the company agreed to use its own
steam and hydro plants to support
the power from the Shasta and Kes. wick \planits.

Galveston, Texas,
In every State there is one city,
town or resort which attracts a mul,
titude of people for fun and relaxa-\
tion. In Florida it is Miami. In California is it San Francisco. In Texas it
is Galveston, and with usual. Texas
pride they point out that net only
does their resort possess everything
that can be found in other famous
spas of the nation, but it is probably
the safest, for the entire’ city has
been scientifically rebuilt after one
of the great disasters of American
history—a tropical hurricane which
destroyed the city.. .
To gain a historical background
for this column I have spent a considerable amount of time in research
on this storm, Its highlights will
bear repeating.
To begin with, the City of Galveston is not built upon the mainland
of Texas, bit on an island two miles
off the mainland coast. .The island
is in reality a giant sandbar, 32
miles long and from one to two miles
in width, At the time of the storm it
rose only five feet above the level of
the Gulf of Mexico.
On September’ 8th, 1900 a tropical
storm moved in from the Caribbean.
As the gale increased in tempo the
waters of the Gulf were lashed into
a frenzy and soon covered the island. As the hours passed ‘by the
storm grew steadily worse. Houses
began to tumble from their foundations and people were swept away by
