4 to4 Utrar 1 I mrrt; 64 UtL BRIDGE ACROSS GOLDEN GATE IS CALIFORNIA AIM Over 100 Million Involved In Construction At Frisco Bay. By The Aiiiric'ed Pres. SAN FRANCISCO, May 10. Bridges and tunnels across San Francisco Bay, under construction or contemplated, call for estimated expenditures of approximately Engineers say that before the completion of the programs for connecting San Francisco peninsula, with tbe mainland opposite, tbe investments may reach $200,000,000. The largest projects planned are the proposed tunnel and bridge between San Francisco and Oakland and a bridge across the Golden Gate, where the bay, between high steep bluffs, merges with the Pacific ocean.

The Oakland subway and bridge still are in a nebulous stage, though engineers declare them feasible and a matter of necessity sooner or la ter. Plans for the Golden Gate span have been drawn, however, and sub mitted to the War Department for approval. According to the plans the Golden Gate bridge, connecting San FYan-cisco with a tier of northern CalU fornia coast counties which are now roundabout overland Journey, will be the longest Bingle-span suspension bridge In the world. Engineers say it will be longer by 1,040 feet than any other suspension bridge. For 4, 01 6 feet of the total distance of 8,700 feet, the water is 300 feet deep, on an average, with a swift current and a scouring action that is held to preclude the building of pier It la planned to make the floor of tbe bridge 200 feet above high tide, thus giving shipping ample space to pass underneath.

The cost of tne structure Is estimated at $20,000,000. San Francisco county and other counties In the bridge district have voted approval of the project and the state legislature, at its last session, passed a bill approving such a bridge. Eastern financial Interests are reported to have promised capital for the undertaking, wilh a scheme of a toll system whereby the bridge would be paid for in a short term of years, and then turned back to the state. Three smaller bridges over narrower portions of San. Francisco bay.

all at points some distance from the city, are under construction. They are the Coyote Point. Dumbarton and Carquinez Straits bridges. They are designed to help relieve the congestion of trans-bay traffic. Thousands of persons -commute daily from their homes in Oakland.

Alameda and Berkeley to their work In San Francisco. These cities, clustered directly across the bay, two and a half miles in width along this shore linC, represent a poDula-tlon approaching the half million mark. Thus the commuters tax the capacity of the numerous feries and the plea for bridge and subway has been -general. The Golden Gate bridge would not be of direct benefit to these people; the site is several miles distant and not easily accessible.

"Th adoption of the Dawes report means that the Inlted States ill be called upon to loan large sums abroad and. endorse to a certain extent Germany's obligations. This In Iteelf is not a bull points.

It la also to be remembered that the Dawes plan will set Europe -up In business again and enable her to compete with us to a much greater extent than at preeent. AVe should not. therefoi. spend -all' our time helping to get Europe rehabilitated, only to leave our own manufacturers and wageworkers to suffer from this very neceysary commercial and economic readjustment." The long swing results of the Dawes plaaaa Mr. Babson saes them lit be somewhat as follows: "Imports Into tho United States will greatly increase and If -we are 'not prepared for them our own mills and factories will be shut down cor respond I ngly; "To-offset this can Increase our mss production to make up for one bias in specialty manufacturing.

Let me make this point clear. "Manufacturing can be divided into two main groups viz: (1 those articles mb- labor la the principal factor such as wearing apparel, household furnishings, novelties and 2 those iitlclet where capttal la the print lpal factor such aa siructur al steel products, automobiles, agricultural Implements, etc. Whan Eu top gets settled again, must expect to lose much -of our 'labor goods markers South America will again get her specialties from Germany. Franc and England1 and we 111 the United State will likewise Import very heavily of such specialties. AA'e.

however, should retain our markets for standard high capital coat products Tb United Btatea and Canada should retain control cf th manufacture of such goods should not only supply our own needs but those of Europe. South America and China aa welL should be willing to Icea tool of our spacislty bualneae; but masa production we should push harder than ever and not yield on It one Inch to anv other nation." Mr. Bebeon was then asked If ha thought the Japanese exclusion legislation hick recently passed con-grees will affect our foreign trad rs latione? To this ba replied: "Not to any extent. Japan, a coming manufacturing nation, cannot be considered aa a permanent customer. Japan comes to us only when aha la ohllred to.

China, on the other hand, as a source of raw-materials and a tremendous market for manufactured goods, has great potential possibilities and a loss of good will would, front a purely eco-amia point of view, be more serious. Incidentally let me add that this Japanese question but another illustration of my statement of Bom weeks ago. that there is grave danger of serious conflicting into'ests developing between the Raclflc Coast at a tee and the eastern slates. This spread of Interests applies also to tha Canadian provinces. The eastern senators and congressmen voting for thla bill seem to be thoroughly cognisant of this danger.

"Unfortunately. concluded Mr. Baboon, "ad our recent legislation ha been defensive rather than constructive. Wt ralra the tariff on wheat to keep out the foreign product and do nothing to sell more good abroad. We increase Immigration reetriction to keep out labor and do nothing to Inc-- the (Tide ncy of our worker here at home.
