Il use about two-thirds Postum and
one-third milk and a teaspoon OF sugar

Congressman Knowland to the effect
that the committee on rivers and har-
bors had granted his request for sur
vey of Richmond harbor has caused
great rejoicing in the young city across

1t is believed that this will lead to
government improvement of the har-
Dor at an early date Coupled with
the natural deep water of Richmond
this will go far to realize the anticipa-
tionS of making the city great port
The Richmond property owners
showed their appreciation of the gov
ernments action by wiring to Secre-
tary of the Navy Meyer offering 25
acres free as a site for a navy yard or
naval base.
1t is now planned to send com
mittee to Washington to push the
claims of Richmond for government
harbor work and to secure acceptance
of the navy yard site. The COM
mittee will probably consist of the
following public spirited citizens: H
