Legislature Fails to Pass by
Two Votes Governors
Rejection
PLANS TO OFFER
COMPROMISE BILL
May Allow State to Permit
Work on the Kittitas
Project

The Banker bill, which passed the
Legislature last week by a two-to-
one vote, was returned Monday with
the governors veto. The vote to pass
the bill over the veto failed by two
votes, four of the Spokane represen-
tatives changing their votes during
the Thanksgiving holidays, and vot-
ing with the governor.
The bill, drawn by Representative
Banker of Okanogan county, was for
the purpose of transferring reclama-
ton work from the control of the
governor thru Earle Barnes to the
state land department. As the gov
ernor and Mr.. Barnes are both known
to be against further reclamation
work in the state, the fight was Bit
ter.
M. M. Moulton, representative from
this county, led the fight on the floor
to override the governors veto, while
A. r. Gardner spoke in behalf of
Hartley.
In addition to transferring the rec
lamation affairs to the state land Of
flee the bill provides for the cooper
alton of the state with the federal
government in the development of ir-
rigation projects and for the appoint
ment of a committee to make sur
vey of state reclamation and report
back to the legislature in 1927.
A compromise reclamation bill to
meet objections raised by Governor
Hartley to the Banker bill and other
proposed legislation was drafted by
Fred Remain and ]. B. Kinne, the
administrators confidential bill
drafters, last night, following con-
ference of legislative reclamation
leaders.
The bill has not received the ap-
proval of the governor, A. r. Card
ner. executive secretary, asserted,
but was drafted as tentative meas
ure to take care of the Kittitas irri-
cation situation.
The compromise bill proposed by
Ed Sims, administration leader in the
house, was rejected by the confer
ence, it was understood. Two steer
ing groups Were organized among
members of the lower house tonight.
The 62 representatives who voted to
override the gubernatorial veto on
the Banker bill chose Mark Reed,
Pliny Allen, Mark Moulton and E. F.
Banker to formulate a legislative pro-
gram.

PARTY

Tuesday noon feed was put on
at the American Fruit Growers pack
ing room in honor of the sorters.
Practically everything from soup to
nuts was served, including the lowly
.'hot dog" Candy, speeches, and ini-
tiation into the Loyal Order of Ap-
pie Glommers'' kept everyone in the
best of spirits. The only one missing
(when it came to eats) was Jim
Walker. There would have been nc
weiners left if he had been there.

HOME COMFORTS
ARE REFLECTED
Ties Of Family and Domicile
Keep Residents Interested
in Home Community

s.Be it ever so humble, there's no
place like home"
You cannot translate it into terms
of money, for the meanest hut may
breathe more the true spirit of home
than the richest palace, but when you
talk to a hard-headed business man
about such tangible things as Glove
and patriotism" you have to "show
him." Mere words do not go very far
when it comes to matter of separ-
ating him from his money, yet nc
man who maintains home and does
not neglect those in it need hesitate
about approaching such business
man for an extension of credit in
case Of necessity.
When there is a large percentage
of home owners, as here. the COM
munity spirit is as strong as the COM
bined sshome" spirit of its respective
citizens. The pride they take in their
home is only a part of the pride they
take in their city. When lawns are
neatly kept and houses well painted,
there you will find good streets, cor
ner lights, fire protection and honest
officials. The presence of women and
children spells schools and churches,
libraries and clean civic life. The
man who owns his home is the best
booster a town can have-he is never
sick Of his bargain, and he is a living
why a man should lose no
time in acquiring a home of his own.
The men who own their homes are
the backbone of such community as
Kennewick. They must own them, be-
cause the business of renting habita-
tions to others, which has been large
" developed in big cities, has happily
not spread to communities the size of
ours. The homecoming citizen is the
bulwark Of the nation.
The home owner and the home
merchant are the hope of Kennewick.
As long as both remain with us, Ken
newick will continue to prosper. The
one will assure it of a sound social
and civic existence, while the other
will assure it of the financial sound
ness, which will keep the business
active and attract to it's bounds new
enterprises. These two are interde-
pendent.
If we want Kennewick to be city
Of homes, owned by those who oc-
cupy them, we must provide the mag
net to attract them. The independ-
ence Of a town that is largely self
suffcing, that patronizes its home
and that owes no divided
to distant metropolis, is
just what provides this attraction. A
man who builds a home of his own
is no "bird of passage" for if he did
not expect to remain permanently he
would defer building until he reached
some place he liked better.
Kennewick faces glorious future.
It is in the midst Of no less glorious
present. The way is plain, so that all
who have the welfare of Kennewick
at heart may do their s'bit" in max
ing this period of reconstruction a
permanent step forward in the up
building Of Kennewick.

MEXICO I'M 8
DRASTIC LAW
At ALIENS
By VIM. p. FLYTHE
Service Staff Correspondent

MEXICO CITY, Oct. 3.-Presi-
dent Gales sent to the chamber of
deputies Friday the most drastic pro-
posal for governing foreigners ever
considered by Mexico. The measure
would make it impossible for for
eigner to hold any interest in any
concern in the republic without re-
nouucing his foreign citizenship and
provides for the forfeiture of proper
tics in case foreigners appeal to their
own government for help.
The proposal requires that prop
erty owned by foreigners within 100
kilometers of the border and 80 kilom-
eters of the coast must be disposed of
within three weeks. This provision,
if carried out, would mean the prac-
teal confiscation of vast ranches
along the border and would mean the
withdrawal of vast foreign oil opera
tons.
The proposals would regulate all
business by providing that majority
of stock in all concerns must be Mex
lean owned and that the management
and direction must be native. 1t is
believed the proposals will cause
strong protests from governments with
interests here. and particularly from
Ambassador Sheffield, who is under
stood to be bringing a note to the
government on the situation.

PURCHASE OF CAR
NOT INSANE ACT,
HIGH COURT RULES

HELENA, Mont, Oct. 3.-R-
Purchase of an automobile which one
does not need is not sufficient grounds
for holding the buyer insane, the Mon
tana Supreme Court ruled.
IF the purchase of car which he
did not need would brand him as a per-
son entirely without understanding,
the court said of the appellant in an
insanity case, "most of us have placed
ourselves in the same category"
The judgment of the Powell County
District Court in holding insane Will
liam Fleming, who had purchased n
sport model car, was reversed and the
complaint, filed by Fleming's brother,
was ordered temporarily dismissed.

DOROTHY MARTIN
ytDS H-YALE MAN

CHICAGO, Oct. 3.-CR-Dorothy
Martin, recently divorced from Ed
ward Hillman Jr., whose father for
many years owned large department
store here, has been married to Harry
Gray Carley, former Yale man and
son of C. Gray Carley of Boston, the
brides parents announced.
The marriage took place in New
York a month ago. Mr.. Carley had
been married twice previously, first
to a granddaughter of former Cover
nor Flower of New York, after whose
death he married Charline Harriet
B0ylies, who died in 1924.
Carley recently entered the broker
age business of his former father-in-
law, Frederick Nicholas Baylies in
New York. The new Mrs. Carley left
young Hillman % days after their
marriage on November 3, 1924, and
fled by way of automobile and train,
pursued part of the way by her hus-
ban, who failed to ovcrtake her. She
went TO New York. Last June she
obtained divorce.
