Plans call for the shipment of coal here rail from Colorado and Utah and by water from British Columbia, Alaska and Australia. They hold out a possibility the price of the fuel for the Eastbay community and surrounding territory is not to be advanced with the increase in railroad rates and the added advantages that vessels from this port to Australia may return with cargoes of coal instead of in ballast.

RAIL RATES PROMOTE PLANS The coming increase In railroad rates is held to be directly responsible for- the plans of these companies to embark in the coal business here on so large a scale.

Each Student receives INDIVIDUAL INSTRUCTION COMMITTEE ON MERGING WILL MEET TOMORROW Steps toward the sounding out of county sentiment on the city and county consolidation plan and the of committees to Jook into its legal phases are expected tomorrow eveping at the first meeting of the committee of twenty one citizens, recently appointed by Mayor Bartlett of Berkeley, at 8 o'clock in Room 314, Bacon Building.

In the discussion previous to the date originally set. for the meeting it was made evident that the only aCtion the committee expected to take at the outset was that, which looked to the further investigation of the question and the organization of working body. COUNTY DIVISION FEARED Fear is expressed by local business men the plan may lead to coun ty division. It was out by atonce the machinery for the consolitorneys at thin city, hall meeting that, dation plan was set in motion and any outside localities refused to adopt. it, the door would then be open for them to break away and that this was the only method by which the county could be divided.

This is one of the questions which will be given very serious consideration by the committee tomorrow evening. Many of the committee members are very anxious, before any action is taken toward the calling of a freeholders' election, to get the sentiment of the outside districts. At the initial meeting in the City Hall, the one responsible for the appointment of this no outside district expressed itself in favor of the pla" and, although efforts have been made since to secure such an expression, there is on record to date no declared statement of any outside community for the consolidation proposal. That thev would know exact 'ly what the plan is to lead to before the committee accepts the respopsibility of starting something which may 'result in county division, is the sentiment of many of the members. Before the first step is taken to (a 111 election which will necessttute the expenditure of over $100- 000 of the members are anxious to have an assurance that there is a favorable sentiment in the outside districts, without whose support tite whole movement will fail.

LEGAL INQUIRY PROMISED The meeting tomorrow evening will see a start toward a thorough legal analysis of the plan. It will seek the actual. statistics of election costs and take other action calculated to make available to the voters information concerning every aspect of the proposal as well as of the sentiment for and against it. It is probable that, a legal and a statistical committee will be named and that special legal will be retained to adyise the bodv and to make a survey of all of the laws dealing with consolidation as well as with the decisions of the higher courts. The statistical committee will find out the costs of the election and seek to discover what saving will be effected under the new plan.

To answer all of the questions, which must be met before the voters can be called upon to express themselves in an election, these committees will compile for the general public all the information they can obtain. It. is also probable that at tomorrow meeting a start will be made toward the formation of 2, general working under some such name as The New Charter League. 8881 Enroll at University; 1000 More Expected BERKELEY, Aug. an increase of 1000 over the same time last year, figures from the of.

Freshmen by the tens and dozens, led by one or two Sophs, are kept busy throughout the day at the many new "stunts" which the second-year men have originated. Real "dry" humor was evidenced in the trick played on' a number Freshmen students today at the old "chem pond." which was former.y the scene of many "duckings." but which is now drained. About a dozen Freshmen were lined up along the edges of the pond and were given fishing rods and tackle and told to sit by the pond until they could catch a mess of fish for their instructors. One day I asked the lady in the Broadway, store if she could clean and press my suit and give it back to me in half an hour, and I would wait behind the screen or hide behind the curtain, because I had two tickets to the show and wife was coming down to meet me. She laughed a most emphatic No.

"We do no cleaning she said. "We have a plant on Chestnut street." And when I said I knew a place where they clean them while you wait, she laughed some more and said: "No, they take out, a spot or two and shoot some steam all through the garment and charge you the full price. They have a sign out that screams to all the world. down on Chestnut street and see our plant and you will know how silly is their claim." I thank you for today.
