TAKE STEPS TO MAKE
CROSSINGS SAFER
City Council and Chamber of Com
merce VIII Cooperate in Matter
OF reducing Danger to PedeS-
trians at Congested
Crossings

The Jay walking" bug has invad-
ed Pullman. Within very short
time the humble pedestrian will be
forced to make way for the fortunate
auto owner at the principal street
crossings. And woe be unto him who
violates the law of the city and
wends his way diagonally across the
street corners The matter of Jay
walking laws for the street inter
sections at Alder and Main and Main
and Grand was first proposed by the
chamber of commerce and the civic
affairs committee of that organiza-
tion was asked to take the matter up
with the city council in an effort to
make the street crossings safer fer
both the pedestrian and the auto
driver. The city council was asked
to provide for marking off the
street intersections named above, as
well as all others deemed dangerous,
in pedestrian lanes, and the matter
was considered by the city dads in a
receptive mood, then referred to the
committee on streets and highways
for investigation and report.
Another safety first measure
planned comparatively by the cham
Der of commerce and the city council
is the cutting off of the corners at
the intersection of Thatuna and
Colorado streets. as well as other in
tersections where the passageway for
automobiles is considered dangerous
ly narrow. BY cutting off these
corners and paving the triangle the
street corners would be made much
safer for passing automobiles, while
the symmetry and beauty of the
streets and parking strips would mol
be materially reduced. Several near
accidents on the sharp and narrow
corners on College hill gave rise to
the demand for the safety measures

SHARP BIDDING IN
LOCAL WHEAT MARKET
Many Lots Sold at Prices Well Above
Government Figures---Oats and
Barley, in Open Market,
Slump

This weeks activities in the local
grain market have been featured by
the sharp bidding among the various
grain buyers, all Of whom show q
disposition to go a little higher than
the standard prices fixed by the gov
eminent. Many lots OF wheat have
been sold at prices ranging from two
to four cents above the basic quota
tions and some of the buyers con-
tend that the buying companies will
probably lose money on some of the
deals. The farmers all show dis
position to sell their holdings as
quickly as possible and all make the
rounds of the various grain offices
in an effort to get the top price for
their produce. A quarter of cent
difference in bids in many instances,
has swung big deals.
The market on oats and barley,
not controlled by the government,
has slumped materially, due to the
Quantities OF eastern cereals now on
the market. Comparatively little of
these cereals was raised in this vi
cinity, and the decided slump is the
cause of but little concern among
Pullman farmers. Oats dropped
from $40 to $3.50 during the
week, while barley slumped from
$305 to $2.75, although the ex-
change basis is still around the SO
mark.
The rains Of Wednesday, the first
of the harvest season, laid tie
combines and stationary outfits off
for about half day. 1t is estimated
that fully 80 per cent Of the grain
in this vicinity Is now in the sack
