TROYS FRIENDSHIP

JOSEPH A. VISITS HIM-AS RE-
SUIT OLYMPIA GETS MILLION.
DOLLAR SHIPYARDS.

If P. M. Troy, president of the
Chamber of Commerce, had not
been a Democrat and a prominent
one, too. and Joseph A. Sloan of Sc
attic had not been a Democratic
presidential elector this fall and
both had not been friends for years
If all these factors had not been,
resulting in Sloan visiting Troy when
he came to Olympia to help cast the
states electoral vote for President
Wilson, Olympia might not now be
rejoicing over the establishment
here of the million-dollar plant of
the Sloan Shipyards Corporation.
For when Phillip D. Sloan, the
president and manager of the corpo-
ration, returned from the East with
his company financed and a pocket
full of contracts. the brothers had
practically determined upon a site
on Harbor island, Seattle, for their
big plant. But just at that time
Joseph A. Sloan came over to Olym-
pia with the other presidential cleo
tors. visited Mr.. Troy while he was
here and, being interested in the
shipbuilding business, inspected the
yards of the Olympia shipbuilding
company.
Naturally in his conversations
with Mr.. Troy, Joseph A. Sloan
talked shipbuilding, and naturally

Mr.. Troy. though at that time know
ing nothing of the plans Of the Sloan
brothers. suggested to him that II he
was contemplating anything in that
line he would like to have him con-
slider Olympia as site.
Sloan said he would and two days
later came to Olympia with his
brother and the two unfOlded their
plans to Mr.. Troy. The latter imme-
diately consulted with ]. l.. Peters
and with Mr.. Peters showed the
Sloan brothers what Olympia had to
offer in the way of shipbuilding sites.
The negotiations continued and c..
j. Lord and Senator P. H. Carlyon.
organizer of the Olympia Tideland
company, were called into confer
ence. They got definite PROPOSE
ton from the Sloan brothers and
likewise told them what they thought
Olympia could do. Receiving assur-
ances from the Sloan brothers that
the plant would be located here If
Olympians would prepare and lease
site. Messrs. Troy. Peters and Lord
put the proposition up to the bust
ness men of the city generally, with
the result that the needed funds
were readily subscribed and Olym-
pia gained the largest industry in its
history.

RECORD HARD TRIP

way to New York city, demonstrating
the practicability Of that route. He
reached New York after almost un-
heard-of hardships 81 days later, and
in October began his return trip,
coming West by the southern route.
During the entire trip East, War
wick himself made all necessary ad-
justments on the truck, and despite
the difficulties of the road, the truck
was mechanically in excellent condi-
ton. The return trip was more ard
uous with winter weather. and much
mud and gumbo on the roads. At
times he made hardly more than one
mile day, but he struggled through
on his own power. His truck and
equipment showed evidences Of hav-
ing been put through extremely hard
usage, but despite this no parts had
to be replaced.
