classification yards, roadbeds, pass

lected as to be another source of
waste and inefflciency."
Bridges, it was declared, are, In
many instances, too light to permit
the hauling Of maximum load trains.
Installation of permanent bridges,
while calling for big outlay in cash,
would net millions in savings to rail-
roads each year, Lauck said.
Freight System Primitive.
Lack of proper signal systems
means slow handling Of trains. ac-
cording to Lauck. He characterized
the system of loading and transfer
ring of freight and baggage as prim-
tive.
Freight cars moved an average OF
26.1 miles per day in 1917 in compar-
ison to 24.9 miles in 1920, Lauck
said. An increase of two tons per car
in the load carried was noted in the
same period. There was also an in.
crease Of Sc per cent in 1917 to
per cent in 1920 of the number OF
unserviceable freight cars.
Freight cars travelling loads
moved two-thirds of the time and
were loaded to two-thirds of their ca
pacity," Lauck alleged.

TRUSTEES HOUSING COMMITTEE
REPORTS TO COMMERCE CHAMBER
Reaches Conclusion That Is Not Feasible to Raise Com.
munity Fund to Relieve ousing Situation Because
Capital Needed to Meet Losses

present time is built upon a firm
basis; that it is not caused by any
sO-called boom" and that the de-
mand will go on increasing. There
is no single, great industry such as
the shipyards which we might lose,
and thus create surplus of houses.
Olympia's industry is firmly and
soundly fixed. 1t will be rather sure
to increase than decrease.
Another large apartment house
or bungalow apartments could all be
rented before the foundation was
laid. This is one Of the greatest
needs OF the housing situation, and
one which we believe could be
worked out.
Need Is Unprecedented.
Having satisfied ourselves that
there was an unprecedented need for
new houses in Olympia, your COM
mittee next considered the best
means Of obtaining them.
1.-THE first plan considered was
that Of q so-called second mort
gage" company, or a housing cor
poration that would take up the
difference in what tha individual
might be able to pay, what the
building and loan associations might
loan, and what the actual cost Of the
houses would be.
This plan, were it possible to get
the money. would no doubt get the
quickest and best results, but the
committee was soon forced to dis
card the idea, for the reason that
the money could not be obtained.
For the benefit Of the citizens OF
Olympia who may think that it is
possible for the businessmen Of the
city; upon whom the burden Of rails
ing this fund would fall, to continue
indefinitely to take from their bust
nesses large sums Of money for the
upbuilding Of the city, the committee
desires to say that the time has
finally arrived, during this acute
period of deflation, when 1t can no
longer be done, and that once more
individual effort will have to assume
its proper place in the upbuildfng OF
the city. Tha truth is simply this.
The businessmen of the city Of Olyin-
MIA as well as in all other towns OF
the Northwest, need what capital
they have to take care Of the losses
they must take on the falling mar.
kets.
Let Him Build Who Can
Therefore, your committee has
come to the conclusion that the
Washington standard. [volume] (Olympia, Wash. Territory) 1860-1921, 1921-04-29


has fallen to the w. G. T. u. for its
support. One Of the larger questions
to be brought up at the state w. G.
T. U. convention this fall is whether
or not the organization will keep the
large building or sell 1t and move
into smaller quarters.
Miss Louise HOLSTER, national w.
C. T. U. organizer, spoke during the
afternoon and the reports Of the COM
mittees were given. At 6:15 dinner
was served in the basement of the
church after which prizes were
awarded tc the winners Of the w. c.
T. U. essay contest, which was held
some months ago in the public schools
here. Mrs. Brown and Miss HOLSTER
spoke, Mrs Maude Christopher gave
a reading, and the Mandolin club,
under the direction of Mrs. Roy Hug
gett, played during the evening.

WHOLE FAMILY
IS OB[|TERATED
Provincial Police of British
Columbia Investigate
Case
WILL HOLD DAVID CLARK
Arthur Halden, Wife and Son Dis
appear in CaribOo Country
from Cattle Ranch
WILL HOLD DAVID CLARK

United Press
VANCOUVER, B. c., April 26.-
The weird case Of family obliter-
ated is being investigated by leading
offlcials of the provincial police. Last
October, Arthur Halden, his wife and
their 13-year-old son disappeared.
Halden was half owner of ranch
and cattle range near Quesnel, in the
Cariboo country. Hearing nothing
from her for months, sisters of Mrs.
Halden living in Vancouver demand
ed an investigation. Police visited the
ranch, where David Clark explained
that the Haldens had left the ranch
months ago, for Vancouver. Clark
was wearing some jewelry belonging
to Mrs. Halden, but claimed this had
been given him as security for a
loan.
Saturday police officials careful
examination was rewarded by dis
coveries of human bones on the
ranch, some of which were found in
the ashes Of the heating stove inside
the house, and will be turned over
for medical examination.
Soldiers Become Suspicious
Two former soldiers who were en-
ployed about the place were startled
to one day notice the odor Of human
flesh decomposed, but later could
find no trace either of any remains or
of the odor. = sit
Police are assembling q party of
Indian trappers and wOodsmen to
look over the ranch with the hope of
finding signs of disturbed earth and
to search old prospecting holes. Ad-
vertisements have been scattered tar
and wide to find the chauffeur whom
Clark claims took the family away
in the automobile last autumn. Mean
time police are holding Clark under
arrest on an open charge.

Coming to the conclusion that i,
is not feasible to raise a community
fund for the relief of the housing
situation in Olympia, the trustees OF
the chamber of commerce at the
meeting held today noon in the Hotel
Olympian, adopted the report OF the
housing committee that individual
effort be encouraged and "let him
build who can" The committee
composed OF j. L. Peters, chairman
Adolph Schmidt, P. M. Troy, Robert
Wright, and Fred w. Stocking
found that the business men OF the
city needed all the capital that they
have to meet losses on their stocks
caused by deflation.
1t was generally agreed that there
was crying need for apartment
houses and bungalows, and that the
unprecedented demand was not the
result Of boom" but of steady and
substantial growth which would
warrant individual investment
Whether investment on large scale
would be advisable the committee
considered doubtful on account OF
the decreasing cost of building ma.
terial and the future uncertain income
on investment at the present cost OF
construction. Already about forty
houses are being built in Olympia
and vicinity, causing the committee
to believe that a partial relief is in
sight.
The committee submitted the fol.
lowing report:
There can be no question of the
urgent need of building residences
in the city of Olympia to meet the
actual needs Of sheltering the peo'
pie who desire to live here. 1t IL
our belief that 100 new houses would
not entirely relieve the situation and
probably twice that many could be
easily rented and sold.
1.-THE market for new houses II
good and rents commensurate with
building costs can be obtained at the
present time. although II there is q
further reduction In the cost Of
building a proper rent to obtain
proper return on the investment IN
a few years from now, on house
built at the present time, might be
hard to obtain.
No Reason for Less Demand.
"There is absolutely no reason te
believe that there will ever be any
less demand for houses in Olympus
than at the present time. 1t is oul
firm belief that the demand Of the
