OAKLAND WILL GET LARGE SUM Senate - Appropriates More Than Half a Million for Harbor Work. Oakland Office San Francisco Call, 1118 Broadway, March 1. Oakland harbor is finally and definitely provided for just as Congressman Met- calf promised that it should be. The Sen- ate of the United States has given Oak land harbor the handsome sum of $612,000 | which the House of Representatives d'd | not allow because of the late arrival of the report of the special Engineering Commission that was appointed by the Washington authorities. * This has been of. great interest to Oak- land from the fact that the commerce of Oakland harbor has been growing more rapidly than the Government development ot its shipping facilities. For Congress to adjourn without mak- ing an appropriation for- the work would have meant a setback for this side of the bay, and it wds to bring about an early consummation of the work that Congress- man Matcalf .bent his energies. ‘When the House bill falled to give Oak- land any appropriation there was. somc | misgiving upon this side of the bay, ard | a fear that the work might be delayed But Congressman Mgicalf gave the ma:- ter his personal attention and promised that Oakland should have recognition in the appropriation bill of the present year. The news was telegraphed from Wash- ington to-day that the United States Sen- ate had passed an amendment to the gen- eral river and harbor bill giving Oakland the large sum’of $612,000, and had sent :% back to the House for its approval. .
