parts of the world. Passenger lines get publicity and attention, but its the freighters that make San Fran cisco the greatest Pacific port.
 The fretghters arrive, ten to one passenger liner, and tie up along the Embarcadero and at Oakland. They sit beside their proud sisters like poor relations at a feast; sIings dip into their holds and pluck out cargo, scarecely empty, they are loaded and quietly slip out to sea again bound for Shanghai, London, Zanzibar or BuenOs Aires. there are no bands. parties or streamers for the crowds do not come to the docks to send off a consignment of general cargo.
 Romance of the Sea
 Still the remaining romance of the sea is found aboard these merchant ships. Into the log books Of every voyage are written adventure and hazard, cargoes speak of far off places and hulls, often battered and rust streaked, call to mind the wrath of the sea.
 Start at the north end of the Elm barcadero near Fisherman's wharf and walk along the water front at pier 45. There is one of the new Japanese carriers loading a cargo for the Orient. These vessels have be- come the envy of American ship own CTS for their speed which is Is to- 20 knots. At pier 43 a Lauritzen line reefers distinctive craft with her white hull and trim lines taking on a refrigerated cargo for Mediterran- can ports.
 World Ports
 Farther on at pier 33 the British freighters of the Union Line aye berthed. the one now in port will be in the South Seas next month with some little known islands loom ing up ahead Another freighter re- calls ports around the world. SoonI she will be rolling down to St. Hell ena on her way to Cape Town and ports on the east coast of Africa Negroes will unload it at less than a dollar a day.
 Here and there. sandwiched in oe-| tween the regular line cargo steam CTS is a steam schooner. These little coaster stick their nose in every dog. hole along the coast deep laden with Pacific Coast lumber. Different from any other craft the steam schooners are seen only on the west coast Their hulls are of wood and smoke belches from little stacks as they hug the coast with their heavy deck. loads, some times 16 to Is feet high Up the channel and under a bridgeI at Fourth St. the United Fruit ships. arrive every week with green banaG-.. as from Central America.

HAIL
P. ". A. PROJECTS
Association Sees $780,
100000 A||otments as Siq-
nal Aid to Industry.

Allotment OF nearly one-third OF
the $359000,000 fund authorized by
the recent Congress for loans and
grants by the Public Works Admins
tration for construction Of moral
obligation" projects was hailed today
by the Associated General Contractors
Of America as signal benefit to the
construction industry, which, in spite
OF gains in volume over the past few
years, is still tagging behind the levels
it attained in the pre-depression
period
published reports Of the prosperity
of the construction industry fail to
ell the whole story" E. J. Harding,
managing director Of the association,
stated While construction volume is
greater this year as compared with
the volumes Of the past three or four
years, it Is still far below the average
volume Of the five years preceding the
depression, that Is from 1925 to 1929.
According to studies which our asso-
citation has made. the volume Of con-
struction in 1885 amounted to only
50 per cent OF the average Of those
pre-depression years"
The great Importance OF the con-
tinuation Of the P. w. A. program
was recognized early in the year by the
Associated General Contractors, which
found from its analysis OF the statistics
Of the industry that in normal times
public construction constituted 81 per
cent OF the total volume of construc-
ton. Financing of public construction
during normal times was done mostly
by local governments, State, county
and municipal, the association points
out, but its analysis Of the financing
abilities OF these local governmental
units showed that 1t was practically
impossible for them to finance any
thing like the amount Of construction
which they were formerly able to do.
The debts which these governments
have been compelled to assume during
the past five years have 80 burdened
vote the proceeds Of new capital which
they would secure from bond issues
and loans to construction, they would
be obliged to expend the greater part
Of such funds to interest payments
and refunding. The studies made by
the contractors association showed
that while, in the re-depression pc
riod, local governments could have
for new construction out of every
$40 900, 900 of total financing 50, 100000
for new construction, at the present
time only $4,000 900 would be avail
able out OF every Sl0.000,000.
Because Of these facts, the Asso-
ciated General Contractors determined
that = continuation OF the policy of
Federal aid through P. w. A. was
absolutely essential If the construction
industry was to maintain its present
volume" Harding said. The Asso-
citation presented these facts to Con-
gress. which acted in the passage Of
the relief act. to make available ad-
ditional funds for the construction of
useful public works by the States and
municipalities under the P. w. A. loan
and grant plan"

1888 Auto Tags
x On Sale Dec: Isl
LEGAL License Bureau Needed
.S- Being Received. Costs
I SE Reduced.

This year the 1888 automobile Ii
cense tags will 60 on sale Deem
Der /, instead of December Is, as
in former years.
Registration cards are now being
mailed to car owners by the State
Department of Revenue and many
local motorists have already re-
ceived their cards.
In order to provide convenient
place for Ashe car owners to pur-
chase their new tags, many citizens
have been in hopes that some West
Jefferson auto dealer or merchant
would arrange to establish an auto
license bureau. Until this is DONE
all owners will have to purchase
their tags either directly from Ra-
leigh through the mail or get them
in North Wilkesboro.
It would be not only a convent
ence and saving to local motorists
to have an Ashe county license bu-
reau in West Jefferson, but it would
promote a ''trading-at-home' poll
cy, interested citizens point out.
Due to a reduction passed dur
ing tn last session of the legisla'
ture, 1888 tags will cost little less
The rate was reduced from 40 te
35 cents per hundred weight.
