Columbia Ferries

I~HE Highway Association
~ of Eastern Washington
announces that it's informal pro-
gram for the convention to be
held at Davenport Hotel in this
city on Friday will include dis
cussion of state control over fer
ries. The subject is to be breach
ed by Messrs. Burlingame of
Walla Walla and Conan of Spo-
kane, says the Spokesman-Re-
view.
A regrettable series of casu-
alties and fatalities at the fer
ries this year has led the asso-
citation to turn attention toward
securing sorely needed reform
in the operation of them. Alto
gether insufficient attention had
been given by the public and by
the official authorities to seeing
that they were safe. Certain
ferries across the Columbia have
afforded fragrant and painful in
stances of this neglect.
Some of the Columbia ferries
are dangerous naturally, on ac-
count of the strength of the
mighty stream, and are made
more dangerous on account of
defective equipment. Occur
rences last summer and this au-
tumn, some of which resulted in
drownings of passengers, drew
general attention to the question
of ferry service.
Investigators found themsel-
yes forced to the admission that
it is inadequate. It follows that
if the service is to continue, it
must be improved and must be
regulated strictly.
Many believe that the regula-
ton should be performed by the
state instead of by the county or
township authorities. It would
conduce to uniformity in max
ing the equipment of the ferries
adequate and safe, whereas at
some it is very poor and at still
others positively perilous.
Another argument for control
by the state is furnished by the
growth of the automobile traf-
fic. Formerly the ferrying bus
mess was local and relatively
small, but now it comes from the
whole state and from other
states. With this expansion of
tourist travel thru Washington
and of use to automobiles the
service of the ferries is bound
to become more in demand. The
need for firm and efficient regu-
lation must be expected to in
crease evry year.
It is gratifying that the high
way association is to take the
matter up. It should work for
an agitation Of the subject
among the people at large that
will strengthen the hands of
those who are moving in the in
terests of ferry reform.
