Ten Airplane Fields
 Approved for Alaska
(SeattIe PED

Ten airplane landing fields in Alas ka have been definitely approved, work started on most of. them. and some entirely constructed, according to the Alaska Department of the Se- attle Chamber of oCmerce. Using Fairbanks, where actual communicar tion with the Interior is centered |, landing fields have been laid out southwest, west, north and north west, covering huge fan-shaped sec bion of the Territory and making pos sible plane communication between the interior terminus of the Alaska Railroad and most of the important minin sections aad settlements.
 This has made possible a reduction of he travel-line time between Fair banks and those outlying settlements from days under former conditions to a few hours. The change means much to interior business and indus trial activities and closer contact with G3E 0lll l6fSHb S6CJlOIlo anu CIlt JubSidS-
 Southwest of Fairbanks three fields have been established-Lake Minchu- nina, 125 miles; Tokotna, 250 miles; Flat, 325 miles. The first named is to be. used largely as an emergency sta ton.

kENHEwIck WINS 7 TO 2.

Kennewick captured the ball game
at White Bluffs last Sunday by
score Of 7 to 2. Inability to hit was
again the cause Of the White Bluffs
defeat. The boys have been in
batting slump during the last two
games and unless they snap. out Of
il and get into their hitting stride
again, White Bluffs chance Of having
a respectable place in the league
standing is not very promising.
Kennewick got off to a good lead
by scoring two in the first inning
and were never headed. Rod Knaub
had bad day at short, slipping
up on four out of five chances. A
change was made in the latter in
nings by putting Glen Dick at short
and Knaub in left. This strengthened
the defense but the game had slipped
away by that time. Hedge Swanson
again did the catching and caught
good game considering his lack of
experience in that position. Hedge
and Charles English both drove out
two baggers during the game.
Swanson pitched good enough
game to win If he had been proper
ly supported and his team mates had
been able to score any runs.
Richland won at home over Ham
ford and Pasco beat Conneli in the
other two games in the league last
Sunday.
white Bluffs plays at Riehland
next Sunday.

DILL SAYS DAM MUST
Be STARTED BY FEBRUARY

1.-THE construction of the Priest
Rapids dam must be started by
next February and the entire con-
struction completed within six years"
was one of the high spots in an
address delivered by Senator c. c.
Dill on the street at. White Bluffs
Monday evening. Senator Dill said
he had done considerable work in
securing the permit for the dam
for the Washington Irrigation &
Development company and the license
as it was issued contained special
clause fixing the time limit for
starting and completing the project.
The Senator was driving through in
his car from Spokane to Seattle
and stopped off here to get his first
view of Priest Rapids. He drove
down Monday from Ephrata and
included in his party were his sec
rotary, Frank T. Bell, L. A. West
of Marlin, and w. G. Matthews and
Charles Anderson of Ephrata. The
party arrived in White Bluffs about
6 D.. m. and while Senator Dill had
not expected to make talk, so
many requested it that he consented
and spoke from back of truck in
front of the First Bank of White
Bluffs. F. A. English hurriedly as
sembled the Band and it rendered
several selections just before the
speech.
The Senator also said his visit
here was twofold. He wanted first to
see the Priest Rapids project and
he also wanted to see the state
land settlement project here. He
said in his address that while his
visit had been too short to get all
the desirable information, from what
he could see from the older de-.
veloped, land and the few talks he
had had with the settlers on the
state tracts as well as some of the
older settlers, he was convinced that
this was a wonderfully productive
valley and. that with the early sea-
son we have here this valley should
be as desirable as any farming COM
munity in the state.
Senator Dill said he would return
here this fall when the fruit harvest
was on and when he could spend
more time. here. He left at S o'clock
Tuesday morning with his secretary,
expecting to drive through to Seat
tie that day.

MAY BRING SUIT TO
DETERMINE WATER CHARGE


Water right owners at Hanford or
Thursday evening probably accom-.
plished as much as is generally &C
complished at such meetings. Ev
ers body had his saw and while
there was q Division of opinion a.
to the next steps to be taken. a
majority was In favor of bringing
a suit to have the court say what
is the proper charge to be made for
the delivery Of water. IT this &C.
tion is started, the water right
owners plan to form corporation
organized under the laws Of the
state, to carry on the fight. A
temporary outline of this corpora
ton, prepared by Attorney Carol!
B. Graves. was med by l8 of the
water right owners at the close of
the meeting. and one copy IS now
in the Hanford Herald offics and
another in the Valley Grocery at
White Bluffs; for the convenience of
the other water right owners who
cara to sign It. If Q majority of
the acreage that has been carrying
the cost of the litigation go far is
signed up. the corporation will
probably be formed. Another mas;
meeting has been called for next
Monday evening, June LIST. Hanf I'd
Community hall, after the wa.
ter right owners have had an op.
portunity to think the matter over'
From the sentiment expressed at
the meeting Thursday evening, all
the water right owners feel that
the 5000 charge made by the
company this year for the contract
allowance Of water is too high, but
the division of sentiment over
starting anotl Ell suit is due to a be-
lief on the part Of some of the wa
ter right owners that since the
Webster decree was entered the
company is in a mood to offer a
permanent settlement Of the. whole
controversy. Charles M. Sanford.
local n aaager for the company,
asked permission to attend the
meeting and using chart to illus.
trate, gave figures which he said
represented the receipts and ex-
penses Of operating the irrigation
system. While disclaiming any au-
thority from the company for. doing
SO, he said that he Believed there
was chance now to work out q
permanent settlement and suggest
ed that an attempt along that line
be made.
So far as this newspaper is able
to guage the sentiment Of the wa,
ter right owners. great majority
of those actually on the ground
and farming the land would well
come such a settlement, providing
it embodied three essentials. name
ly. a sufficient quantity of water to
properly irrigate the land; q rea-
sonable maintenance charge and the
irrigati n sys EN- put in permanent
share 60 that it could BE- economic
ally operated and managed. To in
si on more than that would be
asking fer something that they
never bought and which the courts
would undoubtedly never. allow.
and to accept anything less would
be to sacrifice the very things they
have fought for all these years.

WE WILL HDT FAIL

In accepting the general chair
manship of the American Legion's
efforts to raise Washington's share of
the endowment fund, ]. w. Spang-
Ter, president Of the Seattle National
Bank, said:r
"The American Legion'ss campaign
TO establish five-million-dollar en-
-downent fund for disabled men and
orphans of veterans cannot and will
not fail The cause is too righteous.
No greater work has ever been
undertaken in America in behalf of
those who suffered that the nation
might live. ~
"Few of us outside the Legion
ever stop to realize that there are
$1,000 veterans who fought our war,
lying on hospital cots, alone in their
sufferings, Fifteen war-racked mar
tyrs pass into the Beyond every day.
Many of the 81 600 now in hospitals
must follow their path. All cannot
be cured, but all must be treated
fairly and with the proper care while
in this world. The American Legion,
with the interest of the five-million-
dollar fund, will continue in sub
stantial way to protect and care for
them.
"The care of orphans of men who
CALAMITY laid down their lives for
their country is solemn duty and
the public should consider It priv
lege to participate in this work.
It is not fair that orphans OF war
veterans be not provided as good
homes as the ones they lost when
their fathers made the great sacri-
fee. No American will deny this.
But in our daily hurry through life,
/ fear we have permitted the ques-
ton to drop from our minds. The
American Legion has mot. These
bows are fighting for the disabled
and orphans today with the same
determination and energy that car
ried them to victory in 1918. It is
indeed an honor to have part IN
their great work"
The amount to be raised in this
community for this great work has
been placed, at 500. Every cent
contributed goes directly for the
refabilitation of disabled veterans
and the care Of the orphans Of ex-
service men, regardless Of whether
or nOt SUCH HIGH hfShttoA~N ~
now or ever were members Of the
American Legion. Not cent OF
this fund goes to the Legion to be
used for its own benefit. All goes
to the Endowment Fund.
A committee consisting OF Paul
Leslie, Henry Allard and H. F.
Kirby, and to which others later
NAV be added has been appointed to
raise this fund. 1t is our wish that
every ever one may be given an opportunn,,
ity to share in this great work; Il
aiy one is not personally invited to
assist il will be through oversight
and ali such are requested to get
in touch with some member OF the
committee. Let US all do our absolute
best to assist the disabled and the
