ANOTHER ANGLE
DEVELOPMENT projects for the


u Yakima and Columbia valleys
have been replete with "lfs" and
"whens." The government survey
of the Columbia river now being
conducted promises nothing def
initely, but Colonel Lukesh has
been frank enough to say that lit
tie will be done until the territory
is ready for it.
A power dam is worthless with
out a market for the electricity,
and navigation lines are useless
without freight. The same obstacle
lies in the way of the building OF
the Priest Rapids power plant.
The point of all this is that nei-
Their the government nor the prl-
vate investor is eager to put mon
ey into the valley until the demand
is urgent enough to insure a rea-
sonaible success. But here is a
thought. Suppose a dam were built
for power; suppose the river was
improved for navigation, and the
scene made ready for industrial
development-might we not attract
factories and plants which would
never consider this locality as it is
now? 81

SIGNS

SIGNS ssz
TT will soon be time for the trip
pers and tourists to begin their
summer migration hither and yon
across our state. We would like to
forestall the embarrassing situa-
ton that confronted Kennewick
people visiting elsewhere when
they were asked, "Kennewick?
Let's see, isn't that somewhere
near Pasco? We went thru a town
near there, but couldn't tell which
one i t was"
Now they don't say that to be
insulting. They are honestly puz-
zled. There is a small and modest
sign on the pavement reading City
Limits of Kennewick, but driver
speeding past misses it easily.
By all means we should have
along that highway, on both APP
proachts, a distinct, attention-at-
tracing sign telling the world that
this is Kennewick.

CITIZENS PRIMER :

WHAT is the purpose of streets :!
They are to facilitate COM
munication and transportation.
What is the matter with ours!
They are full of uncomfortable,
unnecessary bumps. >.
What can be done about it?
Wait until the city council gets
around to resurfacing them.
Is there any way to hurry the
city council?
Tell the council members, indi-
vidually and collectively, that you
want better streets and will sup
port the council in it's efforts to
secure the new surface.
How else can do this?
Write a letter to the Courier
Reporter stating your opinion of
the situation.
Will the agitation for better
streets stop?
Not until better stress are Sc
cured.
