New York. Oct. 25.-lf the present
ratio is maintained, as they say in
election bulletins. it has been figured
out that in \. ID. 1000 the city of
New York will have a population of
some 2S,S00,000 souls. 1t will
stretch up the Hudson river almost
10 Poughkeepsie. 1t will reach its
tentacles out Long Island way al
most to Montauk point. 1t will poach
ON Connecticut soil to Greenwich and
beyond. All of this to make way for
a certain density of population per
square mile. :.
If the present ratio of expendi-
lures is maintained, it will require
a budget of something like $1,000
100000 TO operate the city Of New
York for any twelve months after
A. ID. 1000. And it is but little
more than a decade ago that the

READY FOR FLIGHT
Airmen Prepare TO Start on Nonstop
CrOss-cOuntry Trip.
BY the Associated Press.


Sumas, Wash, Oct. 25.-This town
took on a new prominence in the pub
lie prints today on account of its So
lection as the starting point for the
first cross-cOuntry flight involving re-
fueling of an airplane in mid-air. The
flight is that of Capt. Lowell Smith
and Lieut.. John L. Richter from the
Canadian TO the Mexican border.
The two airmen base their hopes Of
success on the same DeHaviland plane
which already has carried them 10
eight records for distance. speed and
duration of flight in tests at San
Diego. There the flight was around
a triangular course, with the refueling
plane rising to meet them almost as
needed; today the problem was one of
making contact promptly and accu-
rately over Eugene. Ore. and over
Mather Field. near Sacramento, Cal
The tentative schedule of the plane
required it to be at Eugene about
9;3O a. m. and at Mather Field about
/ 80 y. M.

OLSEN PLAYERS
GIVEN FULL HOUSE
Large Audience at First Play Given
Under Auspices of Business
Girls Club

1t is unfortunate that Arthur Rich
mans play Ambush" should have
been the vehicle by which the Moroni
Olsen Players were introduced to a
Kennewick audience--unfortun for
the reason that the play presents 8
social problem in manner concern
ing which there is certain to be q
wide divergence of opinion.
The play is not Of the amusing, en-
tertaining type, nor does it have
happy ending in which all things work
out for the best and for that reason
it left stranded those who expected
an evening of pleasant diversion;
others it offended with the directness
of the truths presented In the cities
where theatrical selection is possible
it has been received and will continue
to be received with favor, but it will
never meet with general approval in
the smaller towns where it takes the
entire community to make an audi
ence.
While the people of Kennewick evil
IDENTIFY hold rather conflicting opin-
ions of the merits of the play itself,
there is apparently agreement as to
the abilities of the company which
presented it. The parts were well
takn and on the whole the Olsen
Players are probably the best the
atrical organization to appear on a
Kennewick stage. Mr.. Olsen, director
of the company, as Walter Nichols,
the central figure of the play. was
especially good.
When the company returns to Ken
newick in january they will present
an entirely different type Of play,
"Mr. PIN Passes By" which is de-
lightful comedy.
The two plays are given under the
auspices Of the Kennewick Business
Girls club and due to their efforts
the Liberty was filled almost to ca
pacity Friday evening.

AUDIENCE PLEASED
WITH BUCKEYE TRIO
First Number of Lyceum Course Well
Notwithstanding Tick
ct Sale

The first number of this years Ly-
ceum course, the Buckeye Male Trio,
pleased fair-sized crowd at the M.
E. church last evening. The three
lads are versatile and gave a clever
ly arranged program which was en-
tertaining alike to young and old.
Members of the local committee
are well pleased with the opening
number and believe that this years
course will be one of the most sue
cessful given in recent years. The
sale of season family tickets has been
sufficient to nearly meet the guaran-
tee and this years committee will
not face deficit as did last ears.
There are four more numbers on
the course and the committee will
continue the season ticket sale at a
reduced price.

GOOD MONEY
FOR BARTLETTS
Owing to Cold Storage Fa-
cilities Big Y Escapes
Market Slump

The Big "Y", which handled the
bulk of the Bartlett pear crop out
of Kennewick, announces the closing
of the pool with the following results:
Fancy, 165 and larger, S1.70 per
box or $4,000 ton net; Fancy, $50
and smaller, $1.22 per box or S28.35
ton net; C-Grade, 165 and larger,
$1.20 per box or $27.25 a ton net;
C-Grade, 1S0 and smaller, S1.10 per
box or $22.70 ton net; Average, all
grades and sizes, $40.78 net to grow
er.
1t will be remembered that at pick
ing time Bartlett pears were scarcely
worth picking, $50 ton being the
top price offered for the choicest
grades of large sizes. The Big Y,
by reason of its Cold Storage facili-
ties did not sell but stored the entire
crop and waited until the harvest
glut was off the market and prices
revived. The last car did not move
out of the Kennewick plant until Sep
tember 10. The pears arrived in the
market in prime condition and not
a single claim for damages on account
of condition was received, again prov
ing the high efficiency Of the Kenne-
wick plant.
The Yakima Fruit Growers Asso-
citation handled total of 201 PAT box
es and 63,402 pounds in bulk which
brought gross return of $302, ,630.54.
The community as well as the
growers are beginning to realize the
valuable asset they have in the Big
Y Cold Storage plant. The saving to
the community on this one crop alone
for the single season amounts to
about one forth the cost of the plant.

Fact that Yakima Project is
Allotted $72O,0O0 is
Not Understood (.
No MENTION MADE
OF ANY HIGH LINE
Supplemental Budget May
be Made to Care for
New Construction

The announcement made few days
zoo that the annual budget for rec
lamation work during the fiscal year
Of 1925 carries only the sum of $780,
600 for the Yakima project has put
everybody in the Yakima Valley, up
n the air. The opinion generally ex-
messed in local reclamation circles
4. 1--WE don't know where we are"
II is difficult to square this small
item in the budget with the announce
ment of Hubert Work, secretary of
interior, and D. w. Davis, commits
sioner of reclamation, that construc-
ton of one of the four uncompleted
units of the Yakima project would
be started next year. Unless the item
for the Yakima project is increased
or some special appreciation is made,
there can be no work started on any
one Of the high lines.
The appropriation of $720,000 will
be no more than enough to meet the
actual needs of the project. Of this
sum 100000 will be required to COM
plete the Rimrock dam, $274,500 is
for maintenance and operation, $10,-
600 for continuing the concrete lin
ing Of the concrete laterals and $685.
600 for the reconstruction Of the Zil-
lah wasteway. This work is all deem
ed Imperative.
]. L. Lytle, project manager, sent
in . request for an appropriation Of
A,278, ,750, that sum including sub
stantial allowance for development
work on one high line unit as well as
$128, ,OO0. needed for the Mabton
pumping plant, which is completion
Of the Sunnyside unit. But with the
curtailed appropriation there is no
possibility for even that.
To date the Kennewick Irrigation
district has received no word concern
ing the report of the special commit
tee Of engineers sent here to invest
igate the high line units and no men,
ton of it is made in the budget as
announced in Washington last week.
1T is my opinion that the reclama-
ton bureau will submit a supplement-
Il estimate covering the high line de-
velopment," said M. M. Moulton, Sec
retary Of the Kennewick district. IF
$720,O00 is all the money the bureau
has for expenditure on the Yakima
project / can't understand why it
ever incurred the expense of special
investigation of the high lines, and
i the high line development is dead
It is only reasonable to expect that
the bureau would have so stated when
it submitted its regular budget. still
think we have a chance for our high
line"
