Aluminium Mill
Slated to Come
to KenneWick
Transportation Facil-
tiles Here is Determin-
ing Factor in Selection

Word comes from reliable sources
from Washington, DC. that Ken
newick has been selected as the site
Of q huge aluminium factory. While
details Of the plan are not avail
able, nevertheless the information
bears all the indications of being
authentic.
Plans for locating the plant at
Bonneville were under consideration
a few months ago. but since the new
setup for the distribution of power
from that source has been changed
the determination to locate the
plant further up the river has been
made.
Kennewick's location on the three
transcontinental railroads, combin-
ed with the river navigation posi-
bilities was the determining factor
in the decision to locate here. it is
understood.
The company. planning to make
the western installation controls the
output of several big mines in Utah
it is understood and has knowledge
of the deposits in eastern Washing
ton. Plans include a barge line
on the Snake river for the transpor-
tation of the raw material to thi,
point.
This factory, together with sths
Pillsbury mill, which is now an as.
sured fact, indicates that in the neal
future this section of the state viii
undergo a tremendous impetus to it
growth and importance.

Lack of Funds
Work
on City Hall
Remodeling Plans Al
most Abandoned when
Estimates Are Made

Plans for rebuilding the city hall,
funds for which were voted a year
or two ago. almost fell through on
Tuesday night when the council
considered the estimates for the
work.
After purchasing the fire truck
there was less than $1,000 left from
the sale Of the bonds and the bids
for the work on the city hall ran q
couple Of hundred dollars more than
that amount. After considerable
scratching and figuring, however.
the Job was let to Rec McReynolds.
The completion Of the work
should put the city in position to
demand a reduction in the fire in
surance rates, inasmuch as one OF
the principal requirements set forth
by the rating board was that Sleep
ing quarters be provided for three
firemen at the fire station. The
work now being undertaken will
comply with this requirement.
To permit faster exit of the fire
apparatus, the present police sta
ton will be moved to the side. the
library moved to the corner and the
city clerks office will also have q
side entrance.
The estimates on the work In
clude plumbing and wiring. but dc
not include painting or kalsominine
the quarters.

Seeking Scoop,
Gets Thrilled
Amorous Scene is but
Rehearsal for Kiwanis
Soup Fund Benefit

The inquisitive reporter, shopping
around town this week accidentally
slid into situation which promised
thrills galore, to say nothing of
screaming headlines when he poked
his nose into the auditorium of the
new school house this afternoon.
There he beheld the wife Of q
prominent young banker engaged
in a thrilling situation with one of
the younger employees of the Pa
cific Power & Light Co. Stealthily
he listened as the impassioned cou-
pie spoke, but his visions of head
lines faded when a certain superin-
tendent of schools stepped onto the
stage as though nothing out of the
way was in progress.
Then it dawned upon the report
er that it was rehearsal of the
forthcoming Kiwanis soup fund ben
eft show Here Comes the Show
Boat" which will be presented at
the high school next Monday night.
The show is a two-act musical
comedy and is alive with tuneful
and interesting songs, both by in
dividual singers and a mixed chorus
The scenes between E. s. Black as
captain of the Show Boat and Cath
crime Maupin as the lady mayoress
of Riverport are said to be especial
ly effective, while Mrs. Love as the
widow from st. Louis and Floyd
Hutchins as the sheriff are both
mirth-provoking in the extreme.
vane Wilder and Mrs. Koelker play
the leading parts in the comedy and
also carry the leads in the singing
and both are living up to their repu-
tations in the presentation Of other
musicals in the past Pinafore, Dan.
lei Boone, etc.
Admission charges for the show
will be II cents for children and q
cents for adults, with reserved seats
obtainable at Visger's. Proceeds from
the show will be used for the Kt-
wants soup fund for the school.

Universal Fingerprinting
Cincinnati Enquirerl


 The prediction that universal fingerprintng will be compulsory in the United States within the next two years was made recently by Arthur H Muchow, President of the International Association of Grim inal Identification Experts. Had he said within the next two decades, he probably would be nearer right There remains to be broken down first wide preju- dice against noncrimnal fingerprntng, based upon the fact that the taking of ngerprnts is closely associated in the public mind with crimnality
 Unquestionably in time the public phobia against being fngerprnted will be removed, but not in two years time The Federal Bureau of Investigation for the past several years has sought to encourage the voluntary filing of fingerprnts for in instances of lost memory mistaken identity, those who have met with death or serious injury and have no means of Identification upon their person. Fngerprints volunteered for such purposes kept in file sep arate from the bureaus criminal fngerprnt file So far however only some 450000 people have availed themselves of the protection-it amounts to that in the of aw-abiding citizens of having their fngerprintS file with the Federal Bureau of h. vestigation If that seems to be a large number it must be remembered that it is less than onetwo hum dred and eighty eighth of the nations population and by that token a woefuly inadequate file.
 Aside from popular superstition that having ones fingerprints file with the authorities is something to be ashamed of the public resistance to universal fingerprinting also stems from the feeling down deep in the heart of even the most law-abding citizens that they might some day do something for which they would not want to be caught It will take time to lead everyone to common sense attitude toward fingerprinting Nor can everyone be led For finger printing to become universal it will have to be made compulsory
 Edward P. Mulrooney, Commissioner of the New York State Department of Correction, is urging that all public schools require fingerprinting along with securing the customary personal information about pupils. It has also been suggested in New York that automobile drivers be fngerprinted when they secure their licenses. Through either of these methods long stride could be taken toward universal finger printing with minimum of trouble.
