WASHINGTON SHOWS RAPID
DEVELOPMENT
J. x. Mccormack, Union Securities
Co., Spokane

Ii is high time the citizens OF
Washington should have "A higher
appreciation OF the wonders of the
state and its rapid development,
as well as its prospects, and speak
favorably of their home
The pioneers might have had
some doubt of the future of the
state but they took hold with full
energy and vigor and started a
progress which has increased Won
derfully.
1t is stimulating Tor man who
has lived in the state for fifty
years to think over what has been
done in that period. Wonderful
cities have grown up, such as Sc
attic, Tacoma, Spokane, Yakima,
Walla Walla and hundreds Of
smaller communities where people
are prosperous.
Timber interests have grown to
magnitude, fisheries has developed
to an important industry, grain
fields OF Eastern Washington are
producing food for thousands be
sides the inhabitants Of the state,
the Yakima Valley has grown into
a small principality turning in mil
lions of dollars and the Wenatchee
Valley has grown into one of the
best orchard sections in the Uni
ted States.
Although pioneers had to travel
by puck horse or slow wagons we
are well supplied with railways
and have some of the most scenic
and well built railways in America.
We have all of he mo5ern i'm
proyeinents and any man of rea-
souable disposition should be hap
by in this state; should be unwil-
ling to leave it, and should speak
continuously Of the beauties and
wealth which have been developed.
Development has probably been
more rapid in the state in the last
fifty years than any known section
Of the world in a similar period. |
wonder if we appreciate that or
whether we are prone to complain
because we think development has
been TOO slow TO satisfy our ambi-
ton. Each should take personal
pride in boosting his state to those
with whom he comes in contact.

300 LIVES LOST
IN SHIPWRECk

Craft Loses Rudder and
Sinks During Gale.

Santiago, Chile-Upwards Of 800
lives were lost when the army trans
port Angamos crashed on the rocks
at Punta Chimpel, near the south
Chilean coast town of Lebu. Only
four survivors have been found and
they tell terrible tale of a three
hour struggle for life preservers,
places in the boats or even handholds
on bits of floating wreckage which
followed the crash.
The ship lost her rudder in storm
and when the commander, Ismael
Suarez, found himself unable to pre-
vent the catastrophe, he committed
suicide on the bridge.
Chilean naval vessels and tugs sum.
moned by wireless rushed to the
scene, but by the time they arrived
there was nothing for them to save.
Eight bodies were found on the beach
near Corone.
The transport left Punta Arenas,
southernmost city in the world in the
Straits of Magellan, with 291 persons
on board. OF these 215 were crew and
rs passengers. The latter included q
number of women and children.

Two Killed In Minot Explosion

M1not, n. D.-Two persons were
killed and two others seriously burned
when an explosion and fire destroyed
the International Oil Co. plant here.
Several other buildings were damaged
with total loss of approximately
$125,000. Miss Margaret Elder, steno-
grapher, and Thomas E. Hullberg,
warehouse foreman, were the two kill
ed. The explosion is believed to have
been caused by spark from a motor
started by Hullberg. The explosion
shook Minot for radius of more than
two miles, SCATTERING window glass
many blocks away and rocking build
ings far from the scene. The Minot
Distributing Co., located across the
street, was RACED by the sheet of flame
which spurted across the avenue. The
loss to that plant is estimated at $75,.
900 and the oil company loss is placed

HIGHWAY. WORKERS NO
LONGER "PATROLMEN"
Maintenance Men Will Be Known
as section Men."-COnfusiOn
in Names Will Then End.

Hereafter strangers coming to Min
nesota will not ask highway main
tenance men to aid in law enforce
ment, nor will traffic patrolmen,
where such exist, be asked to make
road repairs. The confusion which
has arisen due to calling the main
| tenance men "patrolmen" will soon
end, according to a bulletin from the
State Highway department. The
maintenance men will be known as
section men," and 'patrolmen" here
after will mean the deputy sheriffs
where such are employed by the
counties, or any other traffic patrol
which may be created by future legis-
latures.
When the trunk highway system was
created, traffic patrolmen were almost
unknown and calling maintenance
men patrolmen caused no confusion.
Since then a number of states have
established state traffic patrols, and
to people from such states the Mime
sofa custom was confusing. Minnesota
so far has no state traffic patrol but
many counties have highway patrol
men, and these were confused with
the maintenance men until the latter
were named section men. c. M. Bah
cock, highway commissioner, points
out that the two jobs are entirely
different, requiring men with differ
ent training, and they should have
distinctive names.
Every mile of road in the state sys-
| tenn is now part of a section, with a
local section man" responsible for
it's maintenance. Although the main
tenance organization is being motor
| lied, there are still number of team
units. In such cases the sections"
will be about seven miles. Where
truck units have been substituted,
sections" will be about twenty-five
miles and the section man will usu-
ally have one helper. He will have
a truck to haul gravel, to pull grad
er or to push a snow pow. Section
men with truck units will be en-
ployed the year around, though not al
| ways on full time. In sparsely set
tied sections of the state, sections
lIldy Uc up W SlAIy llllcS, d1u
| the section man may have two or
three helpers.
On paved routes the sections will
be longer than on gravel roads. The
section man will make inspections of
the concrete and tar cracks occasion
ally. He will make shoulder repairs,
cut weeds, keep the roadsides and
bitches clean, the same as on gravel
roads, and will be furnished snow
pillow to keep the road open in win
| ter.
Changing the name from patrolmen
to sectionmen will not affect wages
or the number employed. Changing
from teams to motor equipment is ex-
