TRUCK DRIVER HAS
VERY NARROW ESCAPE

Lonnie Webb, of this city, truck
driver for the Richfield Oil Com
pany, narrowly escaped death at
$50 a. m. Sunday, whenhis truck
was crowded off the Speedball high
way, about seven miles north of
Coulee City.
Webb was on his way to Grand
Coulee with four 600-gal1on tanks
of gasoline. When he saw the col
lision with the oncoming car was
inevitable, he took to the ditch.
The big truckstruk on it's nose and
turned almost completely around
scattering the tanks in the ditch.
Webb Immediately turned off the
ignition. thus avoiding possible
conffa grationJ which certainly
would have been disastrous with
$50 much gasoline scatteredaround
the ground.
The driver received only minor
scratches and bruises but the
truck is a total wreck. The cab
was tore loose from the body and
was lying about, fifteen feet from
the truck. Those who viewed the
scene of the accident say it is the
worst wreck seen on the Speedball
highway. The wreck was towed
to Wenatchee by AL Hinkle of the
Nelson Motor Company. Webb
was treated at the Carmichael hos
pital. The drivr of {the car did
not stop which is pretty plain evil
dence that he was at fault.

CouIee Lakes Drew
Many Fishermen Sunday

The banks on each side of Blue
and Park lakes We're literally lined
with cars and people last Sunday
most of whom had gone there to
enjoy the opening day of the fish
ing season. Hundreds of boats,
loaded with ardent fishermen, ply
ed up and don the lakes angling
for the finny tribe. Others, with
high top boots, could be seen wad-
ing into the water, casting for the
elusive trout.
To most of the fishermen the
day was a profitable one and many
fine catches of Silver trout was
reported.
These two lakes are be$oming
very popular because of their fish
ing propensities and the fact that
they are ideal for boating, swim
ming, etc. McCann's beach at the
north end of Blue Lake, and the
Blue Lake Cabin Camp situated at
the south end, claimed their share
of visitors Sunday, while Hopes
beach and Mrs. McNutt's beach on
Park Lake entertained large
crowds all day.

MONEY IS
NO OBJECT

Olympia. April 16.-As the ad
vance sheets of the 1885 session
laws come from the hands of the
state printer, those members OF
the )recent session who take the
time and trouble to read them ov-
er are startled by discovering just
what they did during the turbu-
lent ten days of the close.
New jobs galore were created
Appropriations ran wild. Few
members of the Legislature rea-
liked that they authorized bond is
sues, general obligation issues,
running into tens of millions OF
dollars.
Although interest has centered
around the revenue bill with its
host Of small tares, and the news
papers of the state have been in
clined to devote more attention to
this than anything else, a close
other laws of still greater interest
to the average property owner,
wage Garner, farmer and producer
Chapter 145 of the new laws, is
part of the national "New Dealt
program. 1t is known as the I'm
employment Compensation Act.
Here another new boar dof tax
eater is created. The law calls for
the immediate appointment of 8
commissioners each drawing $4,-
900 year. Other officers, attor-
neys, clerks, experts and necessary
assistants are provided for. In
other words new jobs for two
score or more.
The act taps the general fund
of the state for 100000 for Of
flee and general help and 800
600 additional is appropriated for
the set up of employment bureaus.
This is but the start. The act
provides for the setting up all over
the state of tribunals, members of
which are to be paid $40 per day
and expenses. An unlimited num-
Der can be so employed.
Undr the Unemployment Com
pensation act, the state is author
lied to so out in othe highways
and byways and set up employ
ment agencies.
What fine opportunity for TAX
ing care of the worthy! 1t will
also provide the opening a head
quarters at very cross roads to
be used during political campaigns
But Chapter 145 is not the only
one. There is Chapter 176,
which creates the new Depart
ment of Public Welfare This is
also an off shoot of the national
New Deal" program. In fact a
study of the money spending pro
posals at the 1885 session Of the
State Legislature will show that
all are modelled after schemes ad-
vanced by the brain trust at
Washington during the hey days
of that group.
Chapter 176 creates one $4,000
year job, that Of the direstor
with three assistants, stenograph-
ers, clerks, experts.
The legislature desired to keep
the money moving from taxpayers
to eaters

(Unltcd PrcSS Stam COfreSpOnOent)
 Pennington, N. J., Pan --U.P.) Bruno Richard Hauptmann enter ed court today for the crucial day of his life. On what he says from the witness stand, on the impression he makes on the jury that must de- eide whether he is the kidnaper and murderer of the Lindbergh baby, his life depends.
 Spent Restless Night
 Reports from the jail said he from his hour on the stand yester- day was immediately, showing in incessant smoking of cigarettes and nervous pacing. But Haupt- mann has spent bad nights before during the 17 days he has heard the. state pile up, bit by bit, a mountain of circumstantial evil dence tending to link him with the Kidnapping and murder. It was not believed he would be unprepared physically or mentally for his or- deal.
 Yesterday his testimony was in nocuous, of little value to him, in- capable of harm. To-day he brings his story into phases absolutely es- sential to his chances for acquittal. He must account for his mode of life after March 1, 1892, when the baby was stolen, up to the time of his arrest, when he was suddenly transformed from the uncertain economic condition of an occasion ally employed carpenter into man of means.
 To See Exhibits
 One by one, his chief counsel, Edward J. Reilly, will show him the 256 exhibits the state has in- troduced against him, and one by one he must disavow the interpret ation the state placed on them. Yesterday he said that the evening of March l, 1892. the night the
