On the opening day, Charles C. Clark, superintendent of the pigeon department of the fair, will liberate 300 homing pigeons. These pigeons will be from the lofts of the fancliers all over Southern California and when released will carry messages to different town officials in Southern California, telling them that the gates of the Orange County Fair are open and all that attend will be assured of a hearty welcome. The following towns will send pigeons to be released the opening day: San Diego, Pasadena, Ontario, Ponona, Los Angeles, Long Beach, Hollywood, La Crescenta, Altadena, Arcadia and Ventura; also all towns of Orange county will have birds in the flight. A moving picture will be taken of the liberation, which will be taken the opening day of the fair and will be shown in many theatres of Southern California. From all indications there will be 400 racing homers in the homer section of the pigeon show at the fair. Another big feature at the fair this year will be the night rodeo, the first time an event of this kind has been staged in Orange county as an evening performance. Bob Anderson, the general manager of the rodeo, is of opinion that the evening performance will be as colorful and interesting as the afternoon show and will afford those the opportunity of seeing the big feature of the fair who have been unable to it before.

Zion National Park, Bryce Canyon From all indications there will be 400 racing homers in the home section of the pigeon show at the fair. Another big feature at the fair this year will be the night rodeo, the first time an event of this kind has been staged in Orange county as an evening performance. Bob Anderson, the general manager of the rodeo, is of the opinion that the evening performance will be as colorful and interesting as the afternoon show and will afford those the opportunity of seeing the big feature of the fair who have been unable to see it in the afternoon. Several free acts in front of the grandstand are also planned. In connection with the special program to be put on by the Fair association the final three afternoons and evenings will be the events produced by James McCleave, of Vancouver, B.C. Mr. McCleave is bringing to Orange county twenty-five head of trained ponies and horses and his show has the reputation of being one of the highest class in the country. The last three afternoons of the fair will feature the running races for local and visiting entrants with many special events. Several stake events are planned with substantial purses to be offered. John Ragan is to be in charge of these events. All in all the program of entertainment for the 1928 Orange County Fair looms as the very best which the association has ever offered. S. W. Stanley of Tustin, director of the livestock department of the fair, Lou Walton, superintendent of this department and J. R. Hunt, secretary-manager of the association, recently returned from a trip through San Joaquin Valley and the coast counties in the interests of the coming fair. According to reports brought back by the committee the Orange County Fair is thought very highly of by exhibitors throughout the states and it is thought that there will be a great many more visiting exhibitors this season than ever before. Several high-grade stock breeders were consulted and invited to bring their herds to the fair with very favorable results. The Southern California Edison company illumination department will supervise the installation and construction of eight mammoth lights to illuminate the field in front of the grandstand for the special night rodeo. These lights are of special design, mounted on forty-foot platforms and adjusted so that they can flood any part of the grounds. It is said that the field will be as light as day from the light produced by these large lights.

If Hoover Is Elected Dam Will Be Built Congressman Phil Swing addressed the Associated Chambers of Commerce at the monthly meeting at Balboa Thursday night, denoting most of his talk to the Boulder dam. He complimented Newport on the progress it had made toward building a harbor, and promised that as soon as the dam proposition was out of the way he would devote his energies toward securing government aid for the harbor. The speaker also declared that he had been in touch with government officials in Washington and was arranging for the loan to Orange county of an engineer to assist in the water conservation project now under way. Swing had high praise for Paul Bailey, engineer in charge, and said that he was merely seeking to aid in the work by obtaining the assistance that a government expert might render. High praise to President Coolidge for his aid in gaining favor for the Boulder canyon dam legislation was paid by Swing, who said that it was the President, who set at rest rumors circulated by opposition interests that the project would not permit his tax reduction program. That Herbert Hoover was largely responsible for the favorable attitude of the President toward the dam, was the contention of Swing, Coolidge went to Hoover for advice and endorsed the project, Swing said. "If this great international engineer should be chosen as president of the United States it would guarantee the completion of the Boulder dam project." "New England alone stood out against the Boulder dam." Swing said. They are so old and settled they have no problems. They have all their federal buildings, roads and harbors. They are satisfied to sit back and follow a con- "They did not hesitate to use unfair methods and when they were shown up, it created an unfavorable aspect, which reacted to the benefit of the Swing-Johnbil." Swing explained that the reason for the power companies' interest in the dam lay in the modern super-power era when all concerns are being tied into one great distributing system and desire to eliminate the possibility of such competition as the government might develop in such a project. "The government should use the same good judgment in the building of the project and utilizing the assets as any private corporation," Swing said. Commenting on the senate fight over the measure, Swing declared he felt a more difficult situation had been encountered, but that he felt confident the senate would ratify the bill by a good majority when the measure comes before it at the opening in December. Due to the action of Vice-President Charles G. Dawes in declaring the bill unfinished business before the senate, it will be the next matter of business to come before that body when it next convenes. Swing was introduced by H. H. Hale of Placentaia, president of the Associated Chambers. The formal welcome to Balboa was extended by J. P. Greeley of Newport Beach and W. J. Carrichael of Fullerton, responded. Orange county will have a beautiful exhibit at the California state fair at Sacramento, according to Dr. F. W. Slabaugh, county publicity agent.

This exhibit will also be shown at the Los Angeles County Fair at Pomona later in the season, Dr. Slabaugh said. The next meeting of the Associated Chambers will be at the county fair grounds on August 23.

They hold that the canal was not built for profit, and while they do not advocate its operation at a deficit, they believe that the present collections, constantly increasing each year, are not only covering the operating costs and meeting the fixed charges on the $400,-000,000 investment, but are setting up a substantial profit annually. This deman does not accompanied by any promise or guarantee that their carrying rates will be reduced—it simply means an additional net profit to ship owners of about $50,000 on each trip through the nasal. It is safe to assert that if the canal were operated by private ownership, there would be no thought of rate decreases.
