Dry alIs Road
Gets First Oil
Oil Being Shipped Here BY Tank
ers and Will BE Hauled BY
Special Tanker Truck

The Hewitt Contracting company
has established an oiling plant at
Coulee City for final oiling of this
end of the Coulee City-Soap Lake
road. The oil is being shipped to
Coulee by tankers and is heated
here and hauled to scene of con-
struction by a special tanker
truck.
The forced temporary closing OF
the scenic highway during oiling
operations has disappointed many
vacationers who have made special
trips to this country to see the Dry
Falls and lower part of Grand Cou-
lee, but the condition of the road
was becoming filled with bumps
and the new surface will be by fal
the best that has ever been had or
this important route.
According to contractors, the
road to Dry Falls will be opened
the latter part of this week, ant
to Soap Lake in a short time.

WPA OKEHED
BY OFFICIALS
Overwhelming Majority Are In Fa-
yor Of Present Program Being
Carried On

Mayors, county commissioners,
school board members and other
local government officials in the
great majority of Washington cities
and counties have endorsed the pre-.
sent program of the Works Prog
ress Administration, according to a
statement given out today by Don
G. Abel, state WPA administrator.
Returns from missionaries sent
out to 279 local government Off
Gals in the state of Washington on
June 4, have been tabulated and
classified and the consensus of re-
turns is in favor of continuing the
Works Progress Administration in
it's present form, it is said.
Three questions were asked in
the questionable: First: els work
the proper method of meeting the
unemployment problem as compared
with the dole and idleness?" Sec
ond: "Are we doing useful and
needed work under the Works Pro-
gress Administration" Third: 'Is
there useful work yet to be done
under continued Works Progress
Administration program"
Fifty-seven per cent of the local
government officials replying to the
{ estionnaire answered all three
questions in the affirmative without
criticism or suggestions for i'm
provement. Thirty-nine per cent re-
piled in the affirmative, but quail
fled their answers with minor criti-
cisms and constructive suggestions
for betterment. Only three replies
were in the negative, but two Off
Gals so answering qualified their
negative answers by stating that
the program had some good fea-
lures.

administrator. 1t is the policy of the

The MWAK costs amount to $751;
100000, but on top of that the gov
eminent has bought material and in
cured other expenses.
"The cruK of the whole engineer
ing problem at the Coulee is the d.
version of the Columbia river. which
is looked for in October, 1t is the
most difficult part of the project be-
cause of the slippery bed of clay at
the bottom of the river" Mr.. Banks
said.
Pouring of concrete is being
stepped up, as is the labor force. We
had to convert mess house into
sleeping quarters to handle the add
ed numbers and we will pass the
5000-mark and then some, as we get
the east side of the river ready for
pouring" He also spoke of improv-
ed facilities for caring for tourists.

A huge. electrically lighted map

nounced today The map is to be
placed in the radio dispatcher's Of
fee at the Statehouse headquar-
ters.
1t is to be used in directing po-
lice car activity while pursuing
or blocking roads. Still being con-
structed, 1t so large that a tall
stepladder is needed to reach the
top. the captain said.
The map is to be dotted with
small lights along all highways of
the state. Red lights are to desig-
nate state cars, with yellow lights
marking other law enforcement cars,
such as those of sheriffs and city
police, he said.
Lights to Aid Dispatcher
The lights are to be controlled
from a switchboard on the dis
patcher's desk. AS police cars go
into AEON, the dispatcher will press
a button for each unit. A glance at
the lights will tell where each car
Is located and where additional
Strength is needed, Capt. Leach ex-
planned.
The map used now requires coll
ored push-pins. This calls for the
work Of two men to operate a fast
man-hunt one man for the tele-
phone to receive the calls from the
cars as they get into position or are
dispatched, and the other to work
the map, the police official said.
1t is expected the map will be in
operation in 90 days.

streams, which formerly had to do
double duty while generating both
base blows and strategy, could be
entirely at the service Of deep
thinking. In place Of the line drives
which once encouraged their cham
pionship ambitions the Tigers and
the Giants could be inspired by
daily strokes of managerial genius.
This, Of course, would indicate a
most sublime future but, unfortu-

Both Bill and Mickey are men Of
action. They seem to function best,
mentally as vel as physically,
while on their feet in the midst Of

inspired his followers.
