STINSON SAYS
NORTH BANK is
TO GET MONEY
May Secure Portion of Federal
Grant to Continue Construc-
ton on This End; to Eliminate
Long Detour Below Maryhill

Further construction on the North
Bank highway may be expected dur
ing the ensuing fiscal year due to the
ALLEGATION Of three million dollars ia
the state of Washington from the fed
eral road funds, according to Senator
Stinson Of Pasco, who was in town to-
day.
Mr.. Stinson had just returned from
a trip to Olympia on official business
and while there inquired as to the
possibility Of getting some additional
funds allocated to the extension of
the road toward Kennewick and Pas
co. Both Gov. Martin and members
Of the highway department assured
Mr.. Stinson that all money available
would be given to the road from Mary
hill to Kennewick.
While they could make no definite
promises, Mr.. Stinson said, they did
say that the road on the lower
stretches was to get some money this
fall. They were quite sure, he said,
that the Cooks Underwood detour, be-
low Maryhill, would be eliminated in
the near future. This would short
en- the distance to Portland via the
new road by about ten miles.

Movie Cameraman, Friend Of Local People Tells of
Narrowing Experiences in the North While Filming
Picture Now Showing at the Local Show House

played in and out with men and APP
paratus.
Ten Eskimo hunters, before the
cameras, stirred up herd of walrus,
attacking the huge beasts with har-
poems. Walrus fight in tribes and fol-
low an enemy to recover his wounded.
In a moment the walrus pack was
charging the boats-then catching
sight of the cameras, charged the
berg. The impact threw three men
over board. Van Dyke, the producer
of the picture himself jumped in and
rescued one.
Later an Artic "norther" struck the
whaling ship in which the intripid
crew was travelling, filming with q
native cast as they progressed north
ward to che farthermost point inhao-
tied by man. For days they were in
the grip of the Artic hurricane. They
passed one large ship helpless towards
the ice.
At one time about 80 miles from the
Nanuk frozen in the ice the party got
away from their base of supplies
when the ice parted. They were all
hungry, so the Eskimos killed a wal
rus and showed the white explorers
how to drink the fresh warm blood.
At first it was not very appetizing
to most Of the party unused to such
fare, until finally hunger and cold
made them desperate, and as Peter

CODE UPS THE
PRICE OF SPUDS
NICKLE A SACK
Raise is All Competition at Pres.
ent Will Permit; Eastern Crop
Coming West; Reach Ship.
ping Agreement

Effective this morning the potato
code upped the price of spuds a nickle
a hundred, according to a report made
to the chamber of commerce this noon
by B. X. Gage, code administrator.
While the raise is not large, Mr.. Gage
explained, it was as much as could be
made at this particular stage Of the
crop.
With the eastern seaboard markets
harvesting large crops, the area has
come as far west as Dakota to find
an outlet. The rise in today's prices
will put Washington spuds on a par
ity with the eastern stuff as far east
as Dakota.
The California shipments are about
completed, Mr.. Gage said and there
was considerably brighter outlook
for the sale of the large crop now
than there was two weeks ago. Al
that time the situation looked as tho
major portion of the crop would
never reach a market. With the
crop just about half thru now it seem:
reasonable to expect sale for the en-
tire crop of Cobblers, although ne
profit is looked for.
The eastern states have Joined ii
marketing agreement to feed THEN
shipments out only as fast as ths
market can absorb them, he said and
that would make it easier for the To-
cal crop to be handled. Some six.
hundred odd cars were shipped from
an eastern state in one day, Mr.. Gage
said, which was sufficient quanti-
ty to feed the entire United States
A much more hopeful outlook is &C.
corded the later spuds, he said, and
that it would be possible to secure
more than the out-of-pocket costs for
the crop.

OF
BEANS BEGUN
AT CANNERY
Crew of 76 People Start Pro-
cessing of Crop; Large Pack
of Tomatoes is Indicated; New
Board is Elected

Processing Of string beans was
started at the Kennewick cannery this
week when a crew Of Sc women start
ed the shipping of the ends, while the
ten or dozen men handled the cook
ing and canning end Of the operation.
Under the management of j. n.
Race, cannery man of wide exper-
fence, the plant is starting up for the
seasons run. Following the beans
large pack of tomatoes will be pro-
cessed.
Following two weeks Of intensive
work new financial setup has been
arranged. Business men along the
street have added to their contribu-
tions which had previously been made
in the form of preferred stock. The
additional money was solicited in the
form Of a straight loan, predicated
upon two things. First, an agreement
by 90 percent of the creditors to with
hold any financial action against the
cannery for six-months' period, and
second, that the board Of directors
would be increased to five local men.
The response from the creditors
was 100 percent. All signed the agree
ment. With but one or two exceptions
the local business men responded to
the need for additional capital.
The meeting of the stockholders
resulted in the election Of A. r.
Brown, A. C. Anon, j. e. Cleland, w.
S. Green and E. S. Mcdonald. H. A.
Linn, one Of the two holdover menu
bers of the board, resigned. he and
Mr.. Green, as president, had compos-
ed the board since the death Of Mr..
Brownell.
The new board Of directors with
Mr.. Green, acting as chairman, met in
the afternoon and elected new Of
ficers. Mr.. Brown was elected pres
ident of the company; Mr.. Anon, vice
president and Mr.. Cleland, secretary
treasurer. Mr.. Race was employed az
manager and Mr.. Green as field man.
"Since coming to Kennewick," Mr..
Race said this evening, 81 have been
much impressed with the attitude Of
the businessmen. All, with but one
or two exceptions, are anxious to see
the institution prosper and have been
unusually willing to aid with fin
ances. Now it is up to the farmers
of the district to show the same en-
thusiasm by lending their support
The cannery is primarily for their
benefit and the response from this
angle should be just as spontaneous
and eager as that shown by the busi-
ness men who have put up the actual
cash to enable the plant to continue.
"The value of the cannery to the
community is strikingly indicated by
! the bean deal, the same as Il was in
the asparagus situation. The mere
fact that the cannery was ready to
accept the produce has had the effect
of maintaining the price for the green
stuff" he said. "A cannery here Is
the one thing which this community
can least afford to lose, in my opin-
ion," Mr.. Race concluded.

WATCH OUT FOR
CRICKET PEST
WARNS SKUSE
Norman Crickets Found IN Ben
ton County; Agent Asks Care
in Using Straw from Across
the Columbia; Seek Control

Norman crickets are in very serious
danger Of being imported into Benton
County according to the announcement
yesterday of Waldo w. Skuse, county
extension agent. This past Thursday,
I. w. Bales, entomologist of the State
College, who has been in charge of
the cricket control campaign in Frank
lin County and Mr.. Skuse investigat-
ed report that these crickets had
been found in the Kiona-Benton City
community. While none of these
crickets could be found the report is
not necessarily without foundation,
for Mr.. Williams, manager Of the
wheat warehouse in Kiona, is famil-
Jar with the appearance Of the crickets
and claims that he has seen them. If
only a very few are there it is pos
sible to eradicate them.
The great danger, at this time,
however, is that of the possibility Of
bringing them in in loads of wheat
straw from Franklin county. Last
fall several loads of wheat straw were
brought in for poultry litter as the
price was very low. No crickets have
been observed so far as a result of
these inportations, but such could
very easily be the case.
Every poultryman and truck owner
should absolutely refrain from the
use of straw from Franklin county,
said Mr.. Skuse, because Of the great
danger of bringing in these pests. The
wheat farmers of the Horse Heaven
country have been greatly concerned
about the possibility Of these crickets
getting established in this county.
They say that they have enough hand
leaps to meet now and the truck
growers could say the same.
Straw can be bought very cheaply
in Horse Heaven, as much OF it Is
burned anyway. Some farmers say
they would rather give straw to the
poultrymen for liter rather than have
any brought in across the river.

ROAD MEN TO
SEEK LINK IN
Ms. HIGHWAY
Plans for Road from Vantage
Bridge to White Bluffs to be
Discussed at Ephrata; Would
Complete Route

The long-sought and much talked
Of north and south highway through
the state east Of the mountains will
come in for some more earnest dis
scussion Saturday evening Of this
week. Representatives from civic or
CARNATIONS thruout the central por-
tion Of the state have been summoned
to attend a meeting vat Ephrata to dis
cuss the possibilities of connecting up
the one remaining link to make the
road an actually.
A good roads enthusiast Of that lit
tie town has conceived the idea OF
building q road on the west side OF
the river from Vantage bridge down
to White Bluffs, thus. connecting up
with the road from here. From Van
tage the road leads clear to the Can
adian border, leaving but the small
strip around Priest Rapids to be con-
structed. Local good roads enthus-
lasts favor this plan as it will, they
figure, give that much more reason
for the completion Of the North Bank
highway.
A motion was made at the chamber
Of commerce meeting this noon that
the club send delegation to attend
the session at Ephrata Saturday eve-
ming to participate in the action.
A very fine leer from F. A. Eng
lisSh, director Of the White Bluffs
band, was read at tibet luncheon this
noon, thanking the chamber for the
very pleasant time the people from
that section had when they came here
for the Fourth of July celebration.

Dear Jane Jordan-I am sixty and
for thirty years 1 have had contact
with men and women in business,
hiring and firing. Too often I have
had to fire because sex was the
only qualification. Far too many
women are holding jobs today be-
cause they use their sex to hold a
job.
How sorry I feel for many young
husbands who believe their wives to
be angels. After many years of in
terviewing applicants for work I
have found that girls, by some word
or movement, will convey to you,

there is any more immortality in
business than in any other walk

women who know how to capita

However, I can not help but feel
that your viewpoint is warped. I
know as many business women as
you do and they hold their jobs
because they are capable and not
because they are women.

can I put the declarer into an en-
barrassing position?"
MYTH East making an original
w bid of one spade, Vests raise
to two spades is conservative.
Remember, that West would be
justified in going to two spades il
he held only four trump and the
king of clubs and king of hearts.
The extra trump and the additional
ace of hearts might justify a jump
to three spades.
COUTH'S opening lead is the
~ three of diamonds. North wins
with the king, returns the ace, and
now knows that both declarer and
South are out of diamonds. He
leads the ten of diamonds.
East goes in with the queen Of
spades, hoping that the ace and
jack of spades are split, so that if
North holds the ace the play Of
the queen would. prevent the jack
from making.
What should South do? Over
trump that trick with the ace OF
spades? If he does, he will lose
par on the hand, because par is to
refuse to overtrump East's queen
with the ace, but to discard a
small club.
Now it is going to be impossible
for the declarer to prevent South
from making two trump tricks.
If South overtrumps with the
ace of spades, East would get in on
the next round. pick up the jack OF
trump and make his contract.
