Idaho Power Survey Finds 187 Mile Stretch Rich in Hydroelectric Potential
A geological survey reports 15 undeveloped power sites along 187 miles of the Snake River between Lewiston Idaho and Huntington Oregon. Current flow could yield 1,430,000 horsepower 60 percent time and 861,000 for 90 percent. With regulated flow, 1,080,000 and 750,000 horsepower are possible. A key project would dam Snake river with a Salmon river diversion and tunnel creating a 910,000 horsepower plant at 50 percent time.

Trust suit begins over Hart separation pact in Los Angeles
In Los Angeles on January 17, the trial of Winifred Westover Hart’s bid to overturn a separation agreement that bars her return to acting opens in superior court. Wm. S. Hart testifies, denying his wife’s claims about his sister Mary and insisting the couple’s statements reflect their authentic version. The case cites Fatty Arbuckle’s fall as leverage in a disputed settlement, with James Stuart noting a monthly fund of 375 dollars to Hart Jr. and 287.50 to Mrs. Hart, which she says is insufficient to live on and violates the clause prohibiting earnings from acting.
