HIRING. HELP
SOON TO PRE-
SENT PROBLEM
Approach of Thinning Season Will
Bring Fruit Ranchers i'm the
Market for Help

Earle Knaub appeared in the
Spokesman Office today, having read
our offer to act as go-between for
h,anchers and help in the neighbour
hood. He was the third to respond
to THAT offer, among employers. Two
laborers have registered.
Perhaps this proposition was not
fully discussed when we made the
offer. Well recapitulate: If you
are an employer, come in or write
us, stating the number of men you
want; how long you'll want them;
on what dates; what they may ex-
pet in the way of accOm1no datiOrs,
and the nature of the work The
Spokesman will mot discuss wages
with either employer or laborer. IF
you are a laborer, tell us when you
can work; for how long; the kind
of work you excel at; what accom-
modations you'll need; and when
you can start work. The Spokes-
man does not offer ito go elsewhere
to look up labor-it simply wants to
help in a sort of labor exchange j.
'dea, in order that residents of the
valley may benefit therefrom. We
charge nothing for our services.
For instance: Thinning will start
in about two weeks. Mr.. Knauh
can use a dozen men for in the
neighborhood of two months. il
llhe can get two packers who will
work at other work when no pack
ing is required, he will have steady
employment for them for the en-
tire season His workers must fur
fish their own sleeping quarters
and board. There is a definite pro-
position. If you want work, get in
| touch with him.
Right now, MIR. Knaub is the first
employer ito state in definite terms
what he will do. We expect that
others will follow suit. Labore1s
are requested to be equally explicit
Here's hoping that the Valley has
no labor worries this season.

Masons Meet

We are told that the Hartford Ma
sonic Lodge exemplified the work Of
the third degree Of Masonry in re-
markedly capable style, wednesday
night. Three visitors from Kenne-
wick were present and witnessed
the work. <. A. House was the
candidate and, we are told, acquit
ted himself exceptionally we'll. This
lodge is just completing a season of
activity, having pledged several
new members, sponsored several
social gatherings, etc. A notable
instance of the latter was on April
9th, when E. B. Velikanje, his wife,
and their three sons, Richard, Fred
erick and Stanley, collaborated in
a lecture, illustrated with pictures
thrown on a screen. Richard was
the photographer and the pictures
shown were of Mexico City, bull
fights, the Maya pyramids in Yu-
catan, the Grand Canyon, and of
Yellowstone Park. the last named
being place where Richard had
worked for several seasons. The
Kennewick visitors were Herman
Schmidt, Howard W'hitbeck, and
George Purdy.

COODCATCHES
REPORTED ON
OPENING DAY
Game Warden Bennett Reports EN
cellent Catches of Crappies
and Bass Nearby

We enjoyed a few minllteS Of
conversation with Warden Bennett,
of the State Game and Fish de-
partment, Monday
Fishing Licenses are going rather
slow in the Priest Rapids Valley
this spring, MIR Bennett says, al
though there has been a grand rush
for them at Kennewick and Pasco.
The situation is rather strange, be-
cause opening fishing reports are
very good.
Many limit catches of crappies
have been reported from Kahlotus
Lake, and the crappies are running
larger than usual ranging from a
pound and one-half to a pound and
three quarters average size, and
you'll have to admit that those are
nice crappies.
Small mouth bass have been bit
ng good between the mouth of the
Yakima and tfe Horn. They are
averaging just under two pounds in
weight
Licenses and copies of the fishing
laws may be obtained from Fred
Glhuly at the White Bluffs Motor
Company in White Bluffs. All TRUE
fisherman should rejoice at the a.
bove mentioned tidings and hasten
to get in on the good fishing
! Warden Bennett told an interest.
ing story of the development, dur
ing the past four years, of THE de-
paGtr1lent of game and fish protec-.
ton and propagation in the state
Of Washington, for this movement
| is just that old. Starting from
scratch, in bankrupt counties, game
farms have been founded, fish
hatcheries built, and wonderful
progress has been made in pro-
tecting and increasing worthwhile
varieties of game and fish. This
is proving to be one of the best pos
sible investments, attracting tour
lists to the state and furnishing res
idents with the most healtlful kind
of recreation.

that the Summer feature will be a

Browne
Talks Politics

incidentally, the fact that CLAIR
ence D. Martin, Democratic goer-
nor of the State of Washington, is
politically more powerful than any
federal office holder, is just begin
ming to seep into the minds of the
Job-hunters and office hungry poll
.t1clans. Governor Martin has es-
tablished himself as the head of
the party in thestate. He is the
boss, Notwithstanding efforts being
made by some cliques ito keep alive
the fallacy that United States Sen
ators' Homer T. Bone and Louis B.
Schwellenbach are the powers. In
the final analysis, Martin and his
state brigade will be found to have
more to say than the federal bri-
gade. The Social Security Act has
been one factor in switching the
hold on the big political stick.
1t is a foregone conclusion that
Governor Martin, although it will
he another three years before the
gubernatorial politics will occupy
front page attention, has no inten-
ton of upsetting the precedent of
the state which places a two-term
limit for governor Knowing this,
there are several prospective crown
princes in the offing One of the
first has been Ferd Schaaf, direct
or of public service. Director E.
Pat Kelly, of the department. of Ia
Dor, has sneaking ambition in that
direction. There are others.

WPA Appreciative,

Here is a letter received this week
by the Spokesman: s'The resume
you published in your issue of April
9th of contributions going toward
the construction of your community
hall is splendid evidence of COM
munity interest and participation.
1t is most assuring to read in your
columns, with reference to the hall,
that white Bluffs is indeed for
tunate.' We in the Works Progress
Administration feel indeed happy
to have had the privilege of COOP
Grating with your community, and
appreciate your kind words that
"The WPA certainly helped here. "
Yours very truly, DON G.. ABEL,
State Administrator Works Pro-
ress Administration, by L. E.
Thorpe, Director Information Ser
vice." Thanks Mr.. Thorpe for
those kind words, and don't forget
to credit r. S. Reierson and his co.
workers for their excellent report.
And, while the iron is hot, might
we beg to call the attention of an
other most excellent government a.
gency, the Reinstatement Administra-
ton, to the fact few fields are rip
en- for their activity than the Priest
Rapids Valley. EARLY spril gs, soft
fruit empire, grow anything what
more can be looked for than the
Priest Rapids Valley has, except
settlers?

with couple of days quiet. No
frost visited the section and the
average temperature is slowly ris-
ing. The outlook for a fruit crop
remains excellent. Winesaps are in
very heavy bloom throughout the

Yakima Red Cross Representatives
To Instruct Class of Neo-
phytes in First Aid

A MIR. Packard and Mrs. Belcher,
of Yakima, addressed a score of
White Bluffs ladies and gentlemen,
Sunday, with the object of forming
a class ito receive Red Gross train
ing in the art of giving first aid in
situations where prompt and SEN
Sible action is advisable In COM
1munities where there is no doctor
there is especial need that everyone
Cor at least a, good representation
be informed and capable in render
ing aid to sick and inquired. If
there is manifest interest, it is pro
bable that White Bluffs will have a
regular Red Cross First Aid station
here.
MIR. Packard, in his preliminary
address, pointed out that it is as
we'll to know what not to do in all
emergency as it is to know what to
do. For instance, moving patient
with a spiral1y fractured femur,
without first splinting the leg, may
cut the big artery and cause death.
Usually, haste is not called for, he
said. Keep the patient warm and
see THAI he gets air are the first
steps in caring for am accident vic
tim.
Mrs. Belcher explained chart,
showing the bones of a man and a
simple outline of the circulation Of
blood throughout the body. No
technical terms were used. Six
! places to stop arterial bleeding by
pressure were pointed out.
/ Using K. A. House as model
Mr.. Packard then demonstrated the
use of the triangular bandage.
Several signed for the course,
which costs nothing except for ma
terial used and for a manual of in
strllction, and it is probable that
several more will enroll. Meeting
dates will be Monday nights, unless
different action is taken.
