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.

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 reached a velocity of 100 miles per hour.The last official eee on an ¥ G This feature appears through the courtesy of O. K.
