Probe Power Project
for Five-Mile Rapids
The Dalles The joint legislative
commissi) n which has been authorized
to investigate The Dalles power proj
ect, as it is known officially, visited
the scene of tho proposed electrical
power plant at Five-Mile rapids, on
the Columbia river, making arrange
ments to have preliminary borings
made for tests. The committee is
composed of Senators Day, of Port
laud, and Smith, of Grants Pass; Rep
resentative Forbes, of Bend, ani Ab
b tt, of Portland, and State Engineer
Lewis, ot Salem. Beside creating
the commission, the last legislature
appropriated f 13.000 for the use of
the committee in it work of ascer
taining whether the proposed project
is feasible.
Secretary Lane, of tho United
States Interior department. Is co-oper
ating in tho . work, the government
having also set aside $15,000 for the
investigation. The proposed develop
ment of electrical power on the Co
lumbia, five miles above this city, by
the statu and Federal government, is
arousing more interest among depart
ment officials at Washington that any
according to
who recently
conferred with officials at the national
capital. It is estimated that the
plant could be constructed within two
years at a cost of approximately $23,-
000,000.
