State Chamber Takes
Hold Of Tax Problem

Curtailment of public expendi-
lures without interfering with es-
sential governmental functions
will be the major activity of the
Chambers of Commerce of Wash
ington this year, according to a
report brought back from Wenat-
chez by M. M. Moulton, who rep
resented the local chamber at the
annual meeting held last week.
The state chamber will endea-
vor to coordinate the efforts of all
chambers toward a substantial re-
duction in taxes. The program will
begin with demanding reductions,
wherever possible, in local budgets.
In this work the chambers will CO.
operate with their public officials,
according to Mr.. Moulton.
The program of the state cham
Der contemplates an efficient re-
search department and will supply
accurate information on the tax
situation. It will also assist local
chambers and other organizations
in their efforts.
The program, inaugurated in
1881, including land settlement,
soil fertility, Columbia Basin,
tourist promotion and state unity,
will be continued on a broader
and more efficient basis. Fully T.
500 families established homes on
land in Washington in 1881, ac-
cording to the figures compiled
and a much greater movement is
anticipated for this year. The To-
cal land settlement problem will
be included in the states program.
A resolution was adop e d
strongly commencing the Wash
ington Press association for the
campaign it had conducted in the
Awakening of Washingt o NJ
movement and for Washington
First" requesting that the associa-
ton aga' Undertake this work, and
pledging the active support of the
state chamber.

II. S. Girls Please
With Musical Numbers

A triple quartet composed of
hibh school girls, featured the XII
wants club luncheon Tuesday. The
young ladies acquitted themselves
marvelously well in their two Sc
lections, under the direction of
Miss Coral Goodrich. The girls who
sang were: Lorene Belair, Irene
Heberlein, Dorothy Allison, Eu-
arda vinson, Marian Gleason, Oh
i've Brue, Alta and Mary Puder-
baugh, Esther Crofford and Mar
guerite Carpenter.
The vocal numbers were part of
q radio program which was to have
been broadcast from Pasco by the
entertainment committee. Owing
to static or some other objection
able influence the set refused to
function so the broadcasters were
induced to do their stuff in the ho-
tel dining room. :.
An interesting feature Of the
program was a story of the devel-
opment of music from the first ba-
sic four tones used by the savages
to the highly intricate orchestra
tions of today, given by Frank
Maupin.

Golf Clubs to Unite:
Use Kennewick Course

Golfers, like fishermen, often do
their best work in the winter time,
especially when there is snow on
the ground and actual demonstra-
lions cannot be made. Local fiends
are no different than those found
in other chimes. Here a joint meet
ing was held with the Pasco play
ers and the two towns have agreed
to join this year. under the name
of The Twin City Golf Club.
w. Gravenslund will head the
new organization as president; DR..
Hull of Pasco will be vice presi-
dent; Russell Day will continue his
duties as secretary treasurer while
John Heater of Pasco will do the
work assigned to the green's COM
mittee. E. H. Behrman will set up
the handicaps; Ray Copeland will
have charge of the membership
drive and o. H. Olson of Pasco will
arrange the tournaments.
The club will charge annual fees
of $40 which must be paid in adj
vance by those not belonging to
either club last year. Old members
will have until the first of April
in which to accumulate the ten
beans to permit playing during the
year. The Kennewick course will
be used temporarily, while a spec
ial committee has been appointed
to see about adding new holes and
otherwise changing the course.

You Can Now Fling
Away the Bread Knife

Not to be outdone by even the
largest city bakeries, A. T. Belair,
local purveyor of pure pasteries--
not to mention the old staff Of
life-has just installed new ma
chine in his bakeshop. At cost
of five hundred dollars, Mr.. Belair
has put in bread slicer and wrap
ping machine, and now local peo-
pie may have their bread arrive
cut into perfect, even slices, wrap
ped and sealed in waved paper, all
untouched by human hands.
The new machine is really a
woderful affair. Slicing and wrap
ping bread at the rate of five hum
dred loaves an hour, enough of the
fine local product can be prepared
in the full course of a day to sup
ply more people than the county
can boast of. Mr.. Belair is rightly
proud of his new machine and will
be glad to exhibit it to anyone in
terested.

&c. C. Won't Let -
Roads Cut the Freight

The Interstate Commerce Com
mission has refused to grant the
cut in freight rate on fruit from
Yakima valley points to Portland
as petitioned for by the local
Chamber of Commerce in conjunc-
ton with other similar bodies and
the two railroads.
In as much as there are times
when there is as much as five days
difference between loading dates
on a given ship carrying export
apples between Seattle and Port
land, in some cases the additional
time becomes an item Of import
ance to local shippers. The differ
ence in the freight rates between
here and Seattle and Portland mas
prevented shippers from taking
advantage of this point.
P. A. Combelic, who handled the
matter at the hearing for the local
chamber, received word this week
of the denial of their petition.
Since, however, the hearing was
held, the opening of the Status pass
road over the hills toward Port
land has enabled the trucking COM
panies TO equalize the rates to that
point with those to Seattle. There
fore, insofar as shipments from
this immediate locality are con-
cerned, shippers by using the
truck lines, may still take advan-
tage of the five-day time differ
entail.
The freight differential has been
six cents per hundredweight, or
about three cents per packed box.
This sum comes entirely from tho
grower who sends his fruit to the
Oregon seaport for export and in
most years amounts to a sizeable
sum.

Buses Must Now Obey
the Traffic Ordinances

No longer will the big busses
and stages be allowed to park
cattywampus to the curbs, stick
ing out into the lanes Of traffic.
The city council has given orders
that the offenders in this respect
be made to comply with the traffic
ordinances already provided or to
face the judge with an excuse that
will hold water.
Driver Of busses and trucks
which have been in the habit Of
speeding thru the main streets will
have one warning, following which
fine will be slapped upon them
Two near accidents have been re-
ported within the past week and
Mayor Anon has given his police
force the office to have the speed
ing stopped.

PASCO PLAYS BASKET
BALL HERE SATURDAY

Saturday, evening at 8 o'clock in
the high school gym the town team
of Pasco and Kennewick will strive
for the upper hand. Pasco has been
handed a defeat by the local squad
in the earlier part of the season
and revenge, as far as balancing
this defeat is concerned, is sought
by the team on the other side of
the river. Both teams have improv-
ed their brand of ball during the
past few weeks, and this will in
turn prove more interesting game
to watch from the side lines. Pas
co is second in the league, but only
one game behind Kennewick so
this win or lose will mean plenty
in the league standing.
Spectators saw a fast game with
Connell last Saturday. Though the
score was somewhat one-sided,
and in favor of Kennewick, the Wis
itors played an excellent game of
ball.
