ROYLE (Copyvight, 1924 The Casper Tribune) NEW YORK, July 5.—Daylight saving time, which has been bitterly and succesfully opposed by the farm- ers of California for the last two years, probably will be placed in ef- fect there within the next week. It is exnected this will be accomplished by special orders of the governor and state railway comnalssion. The expectation of such orders is based on the acute shortage of elec- tric power throughout the state caus- ed by low water in the streams. The state has been in the grip of a severe drought which has prevailed almost without a break since last Septem- ber. The output of hundreds of fac- tories and industrial plants has been curtailed by this shortage of power and some municipalities have been put on “light rations.” Three hours use of the current for lighting pur- poses is the limit allowed in some cities. Steam gerferated electrical plants are in a minority in California and in late years electric current has been widely popular for domestic cooking and heating purposes. The use of power in southern Call- fornia has been cut about 25 per cent in the industries and as a result several hundred ofl companies now engaged in drilling operations have placed orders for wasoline engines to| supplement the electric current sup-| ply. Some drillers have made plans{ to install as many as 15 of these| auxiliaries. This tendency, it is felt, | will increase the use of gasoline and distillate and ease the oll situation in the state now burdened with heavy stocks In storage, A somewhat similar situation ex- isted last summer in the industrial plants along the Atlantic seaboard. 5 a result, adjustments have been made which probably will prevent a recurrence of the shortage even in years when the rain and snow falls have been light. This has been, ac- complished largely by remarkable developments in super power lines and arrangements for the inter- change of current in various sec- tions between coal burning power plants and hydro-electric stations. The building of new power plants is proceeding at an unusual rate fore- ed by the enormous increase in de- mand for lighting as well as in- dustrial purposes, The reduced price for electric light bulbs has now ben placed in effect by the larger manufacturers. Engineers, in com- menting on the reduction, declare that it has been made possible by rather than any drop in manufacturing or labor costs. The sale of the lighting equipment produced in-this sountry in the last year increased 136 per cent and the improvement has. continued. in, late months without a check. of the bulbs alone t 479 in 1923 and the number turned out this year is expected to be far greater. Farm electrification has taken marked strides in the middle West and experimental rural! lines now have been established in about 10 states. On the Red Wing, Minn., agricul- tural test line, costs have been figur- ed down to a point where the farm- ers on the line pay a service charge of $6.90°a month and regular meter rates for power consumed. Potver for the experiment fs being furnish- ed free by the Northern States Pow- er company which, for a time, will utilie the current generated at the new Ford Motor plant at High Dam, outside St. Paul. The waters of the Mississipai were turned into the tur- bines of the plant for the first time this week and the Northern States company will purchase tite power developed until it is needed by the For company, which expects to have the factory in operation by January 1, 1925, The ‘great difficulty in the trans- mission of electric current to the farms, according to William U. Ba- her, general manager of the Illinols Power and Light Corporation, lies\in the fact that it is too expensive to tap big- power lines carrying from 6,600 to 300,000 volts and reduce the voltage to where the current can be utilied for the farms. “The only feasible plan evident so far," heesaid, “seems to be in the building of low voltage lines to the farms extending from a transformer sibstation in some nearby town.” Two Perish on Burning Ship Off Baltimore: BALTIMORE, July 5.—Two» per- sons, 2 negro man and woman, are known to have lost thelr lives when the bay steamer Threo Rivers, was burned off Cove Point early today, wireless dispatch from a news: paper reported on board, to his payer, stated.

(Copyright, 1924, by the Consolidated Press Association.) NEW YORK, July —Crystalliza. tion of editorial opinion of the New York newspapers on the deb: n the league of nations and Ku Klux Klan planks In the Democratic national convention last week and the ensuing vote, finds the edite writers apparently as far apart their views as the delegates them selves. The referendum proposition on the league, adopted by the conven- tion is denounced by the Times as a “Bryanesque whimsy which never can be put into practical effect," while the: World which has been as ardent a champion of the league as the Times makes no comment as to whether the plan is workable and says the convention did not stand by the league because “the domi- nant candidates, at the moment did not find a pr jouncement for the league politically convenient." On the other hand, the Republican Herald-Tribune denounces the league plank as “amazing product of. cow. ardice and insin rity” which would open the tical inn tions of the most perilous sort. Werld, which first exposed the klan and has led the fight for naming the hooded organization in the Democratic platform, takes com. fort in the defeat of its project in the fact that the klan had no de ferders in the convention and that “its purposes were denounced and much by those who t naming it as by the door t voted al other side The Tribune comments that the men who prevented the Democratic party from openly introducing the religiove into the campaign have done the country an important service.” But it adds that the in- issue troduction of the religious issue “in party sense was: portentious of dl ‘ganize tion.” L Times says that the klan issue is omething that has got to be fought out; it is something that can not be camouflaged or com promised; the fight in the conven- toa is only the beginning of a fight that will have to be ried on in state after state and congressional district after congressional district.” Tho World says {t is too early to ay now just how'the klan and the league will figure in the campaign and challenges the.
