SOUTH DAKOTANS
MAKE HOME HERE

Faced with the prospects OF nothing
more nourishing than Russian thistle
to feed his stock, Edwin SchWisoW,
brother of William SchWisoW, local
service station operator, decided thaC
he and his family would probably have
better chance in Washington than
in South Dakota. So, with his wife and
three children in the car, and trailer
full of household belongings, they
headed westward, ending their four
teen hundred mile journey last Wed
nesday at White Bluffs.
According to Mr.. Schwisow, the ter
ritory around Belvedere, hundred
miles east of the Black Hills in South
Dakota, is not as badly hit as other
portions of the middle west; but even
so, conditions were far from hope1ul'
so when he had an opportunity to
come to White Bluffs, where he Will
manage his brothers ranch, he didn't
long hesitate. He had a mental image
of this country which he found to
be fairly accurate, he says, except that
he had not expected to find sagebrush
right in town.
The leisurely trip west (their first)
took eight days. The family stopped for
q day in the Black Hills to visit Mt
Rushmore, the scene of an enormous
mountain statuary group, and pausec
at other points of interest. After the
precipitousness of the Black Hills, the
Schwisows found the Rocky Noun
tains rather tame.
Mr.. and Mrs. Schwisow have three
children, all boys, two Of whom ar
of school age.

Federal Funds
Not Available
For Road Link
No Funds Awarded Roads
Leading To Private
Ferries

Hopes for the early completion OF
the White Bluffs Othello road received
setback this week when the federal
Bureau of Public Roads turned down
a $4,000 appropriation for the project,
which had been scheduled for the
grading and surfacing of 16 miles from
the Columbia river east toward Othello.
Following conference with Cover
nor Martin and Director of Highways
Lacey Murrow, D. S. Wilkinson states
that the state department will ask
the federal bureau to reconsider their
decision, but that since it is rule OF
the Bureau of Public Roads that no
federal aid will be granted to any road
which leads to a ferry, it is doubtful
if a revision can be secured.
Wilkinson, together with M. M.
Wiehl, operator Of the White Bluffs
Ferry; Lloyd Wiehl, his son and va
kima attorney, and j. @. Lampert of
Yakima, president of the state Good
Roads Association, left for Olympia
Tuesday to confer with the state Off
Gals. They returned Wednesday eve
ming.
Initial work was started on this pro-
ject last winter when the state alo-
Gated sum of money in order that
the work might be done while there
was need for relief. Under the original
plan, the entire 22-mile stretch from
L. III f0 hn "a.
routed and built up to state specifi.
cations with sufficient ballast and sur
facing material that heavy freight
trucks could be routed that way. With
the disbanding of the CWA in thu
spring. this work was halted, and M
further work has since been done.
EARLY in August, the state recon-.
mended to the federal government
that $65,0O0 be appropriated to com
plete the construction of this road
This money was to come from thu
$3,lOO,OOO federal aid funds which hat
been allocated to the state by tn
Bureau of Public Roads. Before thi
money could be used, the project mus
be approved by the bureau.
Several weeks later, this recommen
dalton was accepted by the PORTLAND
office of the bureau, and plans Wer
made by the state to call for bid
within a short time for the work.
Word was received early this week
however, that the Washington oftic
of the bureau had reversed the earle
decision, for the reason that the gov
eminent will not participate in tn
construction of any road which leae
to a ferry.

END Of SLUMS

Declaring that slums in this
country are a scandal" Federal
Emergency Relief Administrator
Harry L. Hopkins today prophe-
sled that if the Democrats hold
the reins of government for the
next six years, every person in
America will have a decent
home"
Mr.. Hopkins made this prophecy
while discussing the housing bill
now awaiting final congressional
action. He said the bill, as
recommended by the AdminiStra-
ton, would bring about a revival
Of business besides developing
decent homes for the farmers
and workers of America"
Describing the Slums as scan
dalous," he continued:
For some people to say that
the American people haven't
enough genius to build decent
homes for all its population is
absolutely absurd
II would like to see decent
houses for everybody in America.
If we stay here another six
years, that's what will happen"

$50 and costs in Alexandria Po-
lice Court today on charges of
violation of the A. B. C. law pro-
hibiting transportation of more

Judge F.. G. DuvalI declared
there was no question but that

that it was not a flagrant vio-
lation as the defendant was
charged with transporting only
one more gallon than allowed
by law, and suspended payment
of the fine and costs. This was
the first case to be tried under
