CALIFORNIA VISITOR HERE
.MAKES RECORD TRIP
F. P. Woods, from Lttdi. Cal.,
near Stockton, accompanied , by
Mrs. Woods, is in Salem, having
arrived by automobile. They
made the, trip in three days, with
a 1922 Chevrolet, and they used
only 29 gallons, of gasoline and
three quarts of oil from Lodi to
Salem. If that is the record, the
Chevrolet people have the' benefit
of the free advertising.
Mr. Woods and his wife are vis
iting with his brother, E. E.
Woods,- the painter and milk
goat breeder, and his wife, here.
The California brother is a
grape .grower. He cannot remain
away long, for his vineyard may
need i his attention, for they have
had too much rain In that part of
California, for grapes, or at least
the wine varieties.
He Bays as high as 65, 7o.
and even $85 a ton has already
been paid there for the coming
crop of wine grapes. The prices
generally, are expected to rule
higher than last year. This is
in great Contrast, i with -the old
days.. ,Mr. Woods remembers
a' ten year contract in those days,
at $10 a ton-i-and the wine
makers broke the contract. He
says grapes at , below the prices
of the past few years are the best
crop that a farmer; can put on
the ground. .

CONTROL OF POWER
OPPOSED, BY HOOVER
(Continued from paze 1)
of regulation and of understand
ing on one hand, of the means of
drawing the fine 'line between
minimum rates to the people, and,
on the other hand, of such a reas
onable profit to the industry as
will stimulate its advancement
It is my , belief from this investi
gation that the public service com
missions with very little just criti
cism are proving themselves fully
adequate to control the situation.
The laws as written in the state
statute books are sufficient to pro
tect: both the public and the in
dustry,, the two parties to the util
ity contract. -
The facts are that the rates are
below war average, "despite an In
crease, of. 100 per cent, in wages,
together with increased cost of
fuel and of many supplies," he
cited as evidence of the reason
ableness of the industry's exact
ions., . .
Of the proposed federal regula
tion, he added:
'I can see no reason for the im
position of . a superior regulation
merely because congress may
have the power , to exercise fits
authority under the crmmerce
clause. The essence of regulation
lies in a tight - grip on the con
cern that actually deals with the
consumer. , There is the possibil
ity that generating concerns may
sell their power wholesale at the
state line to distributing compan
ies, thus attempting to make their
wholesale prices exempt, from the
regulation of the consuming statfJ
But that state still regulates th
price and service of the distribut
ing company. : Most commissions
exercise supervision of. the con
tracts for purchase of . power. The
commissions are unlikely to blind
ly accept as an item of cost the
amount paid to an external trans
mission company for Its power, but
rather they will examine the cost
and reject it as a basic element it
found unfair or excessive or collusive."
