NEW PLANT WILL
IE JUICE
1925 EXPOSITION
A program of construction that will
Insure ample electrical current to make
it possible for the 1925 fair to be an elec
trical fair, has been outlined by engi
neers of the Northwestern Electric com
pany. To this end the, company plans
immediate erection of a second power
plant on the White Salmon river, just
below the present plant, that will fur
nish one third the amount of power gen
erated by the first unit. .
Engineers have discovered a natural
rack lined canyon .a short distance be
low the first dam, where they will con
struct the second dam. thus curtailing
expenses immensely.
TO USE PRKSfTNT WIRES
A dam and generating plant usually
cost several million dollars, but it has
been estimated that the lower plant can
be erected for $600,000 owing to the nat
ural advantages which have been dis
covered. The ' company also owns two
other sites farther up the White Salmon
river which may be developed later.
The capacity of the" present plant on
the White Salmon river is 20,000. The
ultimate capacity will be at least 25,000
horsepower, with a possible 42,500 horse
power when the two ufiper projects are
developed. At the wires running from
the installed plant to Portland are only
five-eighths loaded, the same wires will
carry the load from the new plant, thus
making another reduction In expenses.
To build the new plant the Northwest
ern Electric company will place $1,090,
000 worth of 7 per cent accumulative
first preferred stock on Ihe market next
Monday morning.
FLAN OTHER PLANTS
. The shares will be $100 and will be
sold at 995, either for cash or on time,
the lowest terms being $15 down and $5
per month. Sales will be directed from
the office of the company, 228 Pittock
block, by J. G. Tavares. The company
plans to complete the sale within SO
days. It is planned to have the power
here within five or six months after the
stock is taken up
.Before the 1925 fair the company also
contemplates the erection of two gigan
tic plants on the Lewis and Klickitat
rivers, where they already own the land
It is estimated that the Lewis river will
generate 40,000 horsepower and the
Klickitat, 30.000 horsepower.
In addition to the waterpower plants
the company has a steam plant at the
foot of Lincoln street, which develops
20.500- horsepower and an emergency
steam plant in the basement of the Pit
tock block which can be thrown into
service Immediately and supply the
needs of customers until a breakdown in
any of the other plants is repaired.
NATION IS BEHIND BIG
PORTLAND EXPOSITION
(Continued From Pace One)
build three transcontinental 'highways,
Representatives McArthur and Sinnott
made effective speecnes, the former out
lining what the exposition is designed
to commemorate, while Sinnott told of
Western resources, particularly water
power, that the West wants to show the
world at Portland.
Representative Cooper of Wisconsin
one of the veteran members of the house,
aroused interest by his plea for the ex
position as a means of showing what can
be done and is done by hydro-electric
energy in one of the great waterpower
states. This, he said, is the feature
from which untold benefits may come.
GARRETT CHANGES TOTE
Representative Garrett of Tennessee,
minority leader, said he would if per
mitted by the rules, move to postpone
action until December. He did not wish
to seem narrow, he said, but saw no
harm in delay and could not escape the
feeling .that under existing conditions it
would be wise to postpone for a time.
On roll call he first voted against the
resolution but showed his sportsmanship
by changing his vote before the result
was announced. v
Representative Chmdbloom of Illinois
made a vigorous speech for the bill
which was also supported by Gahn of
Ohio ; Almon of Alabama and Zineberge
or California.
TEXT OF RESOLUTIONS
The resolution Invites participation of
foreign governments, and was passed
by the senate June 5. It reads as fol
lows :

Pacific hichwavs. the centennial of the
..invention of the electro-magnet, and to

United States government shall be put

POST A I- STAMPS TO TELL
WORLD OF PORTLAND FAIR
By Frank B. Gross
lairersal gcrrira Staff Correspondent
-Washington. July 28 Portland la
new assured Us projected world expo
sition in 1925 to commemorate the genius
and achievements of the electrical age.
When the house passed the McNary
resolution this afternoon, authorising
the president to Invite foreign nations to
participate in the exposition, it, in ef
fect, pledged the government to an ap
propriation for the enterprise. If the
nation invited every other nation to be
represented at Portland In 1923, it will
become Incumbent on the government to
furnish a home in keeping with the dig
nity of the greatest country in the
world.
President Harding already has ex
pressed his willingness to sign the reso
lution. At 'the time John Wanamaker of
Philadelphia visited him to urge favor
able consideration of the Philadelphia
projected exposition to commemorate
the signing of the declaration of inde
pendence and, in fact, to suggest that
the whole nation unite in support of
the Philadelphia show. Senator McNary
made It his business to visit the presi
dent and remind him that Portland had
the first bid. W
President Harding takes the position
that the nation to big enough and suf
ficiently prosperous to hold two great
pageants within the next six years, one
on the Pacific and one on the Atlantic
Special exposition stamps will be
toaued by the postofttce department im
mediately after the resolution becomes
a law and these will be used on all
mail outgoing from Oregon. There also
will be provision for special stamp can
cellation, proclaiming to the world that
all roads lead to OregtSr in 1923.
BACK EES OF FAIR DISCI SS
PLANS FOB FIX AS CISC IT
The approval by both houses of Con
or Senator McNary's resolution
N
FOR
authorising the president to invite for
eign countries to participate in the Port
land 1925 exposition give acarlltrngial
impetus to the popularity of the plan.
Officials of the fair board firstly are
gratified with the prompt and efficient
manner in which Senator McXary. Rep
resentative McArthur and their col
leagues pushed the matter to a success
ful conclusion in congress.
The scene now shifts to Portland and
Oregon, which districts, in return for
the manifest benefits to be derived from
a successful exposition, must share its
coat.
DISCUSS WATS A3T MEAS8
At a meeting of the finance committee
Wednesday afternoon at which Julius
L. Meier presided, an informal discus
sion was had on ways and means of
raising the requisite funds. As soon aa
a definite plan is evolved it win be pre
sented to the public for consideration
and approval.
The ultimate and lasting benefit to
city and state from the 1925 exposition
is recognized as the cornerstone of the
enterprise. With the "See America
First" idea growing by leaps and bounds.
with increased motor tourist traffic re
sulting from the nation-wide highway
development, with the new importance
attaching to the Pacific Northwest be
cause of its proximity to the Orient.
where lie the commercial possibilities of
tomorrow, the Portland exposition is
bound to be a magnet of general attrae
tion.
Viewed from a local standpoint. It is
pointed out that with the fair aa a goal
a practical remedy is provided for such
immediate and local business ills as ex
ist in the general cooperation of the
public in working for this enterprise.
OTHER CITIES GITE WAT
'Oregon is particularly fortunate in
having a clear right of way for the pre
sentation of its program," said Julius
Meier today. "Since the inception of
the work many little annoying features
appeared on the horizon which have now
been successfully eliminated. Prom
inent among them was the conflicting
dates for competitive expositions in Los
Angeles, Atlanta. Ga, and Boston. After
Oregon presented its claim for recogni
tion, the fair state of California readily
bowed to the wishes of its northern
neighbor and consented to aid Oregon
instead of opposing it. Atlanta, Ga,
likewise felt that the great West was
better able to act as host in a world
wide exposition on account of the inter
est that now centers on the Pacific
coast. The state of Massachusetts was
well along with a program under the
title of the 'Pilgrims' Progress,' but
finally decided that the opportunity to
stage a great peace demonstration be
longed to the West. Now with national
recognition there is nothing to prevent
Portland and the citizens of Oregon
from putting their heart and soul into
the enterprise and making it one of the
most brilliant demonstrations of progress
ever held in the history of America."

TAXATION Of LAND

By A. O. Hay ware
Washington. July 28. ( I. N. S
clartng that the present system of fed
eral taxation la rssponstbsa for the ex
isting business iinci Ine hi rait It has
reduced the purchasing power of the peo
ple, a dslsgatton rspreaentlng the com
mittee of manufacturer and merchants
on federal taxation appeared today be
fore the boose ways and means com
mittee and urged the repeal of all ex
cise, excess profits and corporation
taxes, the Increasing of inheritance taxes
and the establishment of a tax on all
tend not actually used for agriculture.
The delegation contended that the tax
ation of land values would -not Injure
business and that It would "promote
building, solve the bousing shortage, pro
vide employment for hundreds of thou
sands of workers and simulate all the
building tradea.
"Land is the only thing, the use of
which to stimulated by taxation." the
delegation told the committee, "tax bust
ness too heavily and business ceases be
cause unprofitable. Tax land values and
the land must be used to provide the
tax. If the owner Is unwilling to uaa
the land, the necessity of paying the
taxes Induces him to part with the land
to some one who will use It.
"A proposed bill which provides for
land taxation imposes a tax of 1 per cent
on the privilege of holding land and
