inquiry. Men in the spruce division
are cited as examples of this class.
In figuring up the extra compensa-
ton they received during the war. the
bonus department believes, many such
men find they drew more extra nav
than the amount of their bonus
claims, hence they could not receive
anything from the state. But even
ir such instances the department
would like to hear from veterans so
the books can be kept straight.
1t is planned to send registered let
tiers to about 1000 veterans, asking
them for needed information or cor.
rections to their claims. Returns
from the postoffice will show whether
these veterans were located and their
letters delivered. If, after getting no.
tlce, the veterans do not reply to the
department thier claims will be laid
aside; that IS, they will be marked
rejected without prejudice" so the
claims can be reopened if the veter
ans wish it. Letters also are being
sent to the "nearest relative" of the
men who fail to answer their letters
in the hope help can be gotten from
that source.
A careful check of office records
shows there are unpaid 1854 claims
from men who enlisted in the army.
navy or marine corps prior to April
6, 1917, and therefore under recent
Supreme Court decision their claims
cannot be paid unlessthe next legisla-
ture grants relief.
A few stragglers are submitting
original claims. In fact, one man in
Clarke county, wrote the department
few days ago that he had Just heard
that Washington veterans were being
paid bonus and he wanted to know
all about it. His home paper, a very
live publication, has been filled with
veteran news. Late last week there
were approximately $1,000 original
claims on file.
John A. Frater, who has been the
legal adviser Of the bonus depart
ment since its organization, became
assistant U. S. District Attorney for
Western Washington, under Thomas
p. Revelle, on Nov. l..

Good Weather Saves Roads.

GOOd weather Saves Roads.
Favorable construction weather in
Western Washington this year saved
this highway paving program. When
the rains began there was but single
days work to be done on the pave
ment between Olympia and Kamil-
chic and a week of fair weather
would have permitted the completion
of the paving near LaGrande. All
else planned on the West Side was
done. There is great deal of other
work that can go on through the win
ter, especially in Eastern Washing
ton.
Two new bridge contracts will be
awarded Nov. 7, one over the Chop
river on the National Parks highway
and the other over Beaver Creek on
the Olympic highway. Both are con-
crete and steel structures, planned to
replaced wooden bridges.

THE LEAvENWORTH ECHO

by the Department of Publ; Works
which would give farmers credit for
cereals saved in screening is an opeI
question. The Department Of Agri-
culture will try to recover pay for the
wheat growers if it is found posslb e
to do so, but it is admitted the chance
il rot very bright insofar as past los
ses are concerned.
Director +. L. French of the De-
partment of Agriculture believes i. IS

ton in the hope of stopping the leak
He also will see whether or not new

Road Needs Gas Tax.
Among state officials who have to
do with state highway work there is
objection to any plan that would in
fere with using the gasoline tax for
road construction purposes. Talk Of
diverting this, or any increased tax
raised from gas sales, to the gen raj
fund is bound to meet with opposition
from good roads supporters in or ont
of official life.
Merely as a suggestion and in the
hope that discussion of the idea
might lead to some acceptable plan
it has been suggested by some i,gh-
way officials that the license fee for
motor cars be reduced to a nominal
sum and the gas tax be increase So
that the cost of road construction and
maintenance be borne by cars in the
proportion that they use the i I'll
ways. A study of preliminary est-
mates indicates this plan would in
crease the tax paid by auto truck and
probably also make The cost greater
for heavy passenger cars, though
there would not be much change for
lighter machines. The suggestion is
that the automobile license fee could
almost be done away with, the change
made barely sufficient to pay fer /
set of license plates and one reg;stra-
ton. This, it is claimed, would make
tremendous saving in the cost Of is
suing licenses.
Commenting on this plan, State
Auditor c. W. Clausen, who also is a
member of the highway committee,
insists that Washington cannot in
crease its gas tax out of line with
Oregon and California lest this state
lose its share of tourist travel. Ore
gon now charges 2 cents and Wash
ington 1c gallon for gas. Mr..
Clausen suggests conference of
Coast states on the gas tax question.
Another suggestion made to start
discussion is that drivers be compelled
to show their operators license before
they are permitted to buy gasoline.
Fred Wolf Gets Park.
State Representative Fred L. Wolf,
publisher of the Newport Miner, has
obtained 40-acre park one mile
south of the Canadian border in the
northeastern corner of Pend Orielle
county, which he has turned over to
the state parks committee.
Mr.. Wolf induced w. H. Crawford,
pioneer of the Northwest and own
er of the land, to donate the park site
on which is located the famous Gard
ner's Cave. When the property Is
cleared Mr.. Wolf predicts that num-
Der of other natural caves will be
disclosed and a rare outing spot will
be provided for the people of the
state.

Drivers Licenses Fall OFF.

There is falling off in the demand
for automobile drivers licenses, Di-
rector Fred j. Dibble says. The num-
Der of licensed drivers, now slightly in
excess of 100000, is only about 10000
greater than the number of licensed
motor vehicles. Manifestly, Director
Dibble concludes, many persons are
driving machines without an operat-
or's license, but there may be rush
of applicants with the beginning of
the new year.
1t is evident now that the total
revenue from automobile licenses will
fall $4,000 short of the 100000 ex-
pected this year. However the ratio
of increase indicates next years gain
will offset this loss.
The Leavenworth echo. [volume] (Leavenworth, Wash.) 1904-current, 1921-11-04

The Department of Agriculture is
trying to turn an annual half-milion
dollar loss to grain growers of this
state into profit, but until a thor
ough investigation is completed it
will be impossible to locate the leak.
Every year, department officials say,
a small fortune is made by warehouse
men in screening the wheat going
through their hands. The rye, oats
and ether cereals that are taken from
the wheat are counted as warehouse
mems profits.
