big fight is brewing. An issue of major inn
portance to Seattle's maritime future is shaping
up. 1t may not come TO a crisis for six years,
but when il does it must be settled decisively
once and for all. II concerns the question: Who
shall control the shipping business Of Seattle
harbor in the future?
The docks and piers and other waterfront i'm
provements on Elliott bay stand on ground that
Is known as harbor area. This harbor area be-
longs to the state and was leased 20 or 20 years
ago on 30-year leases to various private con-
Germs. They are paying for the use of this valu-
able land very trivial sums, sums far less than
taxes on lands of similar value would amount to.
Beginning in 1923 the important leases begin
to expire, and by 1884 all will have expired
Some minor leases are already expiring.

BABcoCK ANNOUNCES LATE SEA.
SON PROGRAM or 90 GRADING
AND CRAWLING JOBS


) Nearly 1875 miles Of gravel surfacing
and 100 miles Of grading with minor
projects all estimated at about 81 AGO.
900 make up the late 1922 Minnesota
trunk highway improvement program
made public Wednesday by Charles M.
Babcock, state highway commissioner.
Bids are to be opened July 10 on the
first lot in a list Of 20 projects.
The highway bulletin shows wide
distribution Of new work that the
greatest needs and maximum numbers
Of highway users may be served, the
proposed betterments being located in
many parts Of the state. 1t also refers
to cut Of nearly $1,500,000 in the
Minnesota allotment of federal aid
which forces delay of many pending
projects. The state highway program
is well up to schedule nevertheless, and
it is further pointed out that with each
contract letting the waiting projects
are nearer construction.

. Grain Trading Bill Wins Out

s.~ Grain Trading Bill Wins Out
The Farm Bloc, fathered by the
American Farm Bureau federation, has
won another striking victory in con-
gress. -H@ -, g.:
A few days ago, Washington dis
patches announced that the Capper-
Tincher bill to regulate the grain ex-
changes was headed for the sidetrack,
and nothing could save it in the present
session Of congress. The house rules
committee, dispatches said, would not
permit it's consideration.
Within "a hours, the Farm Bloc g
demand for action grew so strong that
the rules committee reversed itself and
passed rule allowing the house of
representatives to act on the new bill
to put the grain trade under the super
vision Of the public.
The house of representatives almost
Immediately passed the bill by a vote
Of 20S to rs.
The new measure was drawn up as
a substitute for the Capper-Tincher
bill passed last year, and later held
unconstitutional in some of it's pro-
visions. The new act would regulate
the grain trade and prevent manipu-
lation under the interstate commerce
clause of the constitution. The first
bill attempted to attain effective pub
lie regulation of the grain pits by tax
alton, which the supreme court held
was a wrongful use of the taxing pow
