THE LEONARD VINCENTS BACK FROM WISCONSIN TRIP "A beautiful trip", said Mr. and Mrs. Leonard Vincent of 542 South Ohio street, who returned here last week after spending three weeks in Green Lake, Wisconsin, "right on the lake front" at the home of her sister, Mrs. J. W. Wright. The Vincentts traveled via train, returning to Anaheim with Mrs. Wright who spends each winter at Long Beach. New-Type Diesel Electric Engines Ordered by SP The Southern Pacific company ordered 20 powerful Diesel-electric freight locomotives, recently, according to A. T. Mercier, president. The new freight Diesels are for main line operation and are in addition to the recent purchase of five powerful new passenger Diesels. Together with the company's other Diesel-electric engines, they will comprise one of the largest fleets of railroad Diesel-electrics in the United States. “This important purchase of new main line freight Diesels is significant as a recognition of the development of the Pacific coast during recent years,” said Mercier. The new Diesels will be of 6,000 horsepower, or equal to that of the Southern Pacific's most powerful steam locomotives, including the huge articulated-consolidation steam engines with cab in front, an exclusive Southern Pacific design. This purchase of new Diesel power is an outgrowth of a survey of Pacific lines power requirements and recent notable developments in the railroad motive power field, it was stated. The committee making this survey and analysis included specialists of the operating, motive power, engineering and transportation research departments. California has the largest amount of developed water power of any state in the Union. The first iron furnace in the world was established in Rumania.
