PORT COMMISSION

THE following Endorsement Of the port commits
sion is from the current issue OF the Seattle
Commercial Club Bulletin:
'Time and events have vindicated the Seattle
Commercial Club in its consistent stand in sup
port of the Seattle port commission. Many Seattle
papers and various civic organizations, not to men,
ton private individuals took an adverse stand from
the very first decryng the commissions efforts and
predicting failure.
"But conditions are changing rapidly. One by
one they have been forced by events to acknowl-
edge the commission and the club right.
Right now the Bell st. wharf, which critics
said was too far out Of the way to be OF any use,
is bullying with business. Every nook and square
foot of space is occupied and the commission has
been forced TO notify the public not to send freight
TO the wharf without giving notice.
