BELLINGHAM HAS
ADVANTAGES

This possibility, and it is more
than a possibility, gives particular
advantages to Bellingham as the
terminal for the Montana gas and
oil pipe lines.
Another interesting feature is
that Montana oil producers, desir-
ing the speediest action possible
may be induced to make use of the
Canadian oil pipe line for the trans
portation of the Montana product
with a spur from a point along the
Canadian line north of 'Bellingham
to some site that would be available
IN this area. In that case Cana
dian lines would become a common
carrier through mutually profit
able transportation charges, as are
the pipe lines leading from Texas
Oklahoma, California and other
oil fields.
Should this arrangement be made.
Bellingham would have a decided
advantage over any other Puget
Sound point.
The Herald has asked for and
acquired all present, available or
iSFSdAdDle, data bearing upon this
most interesting situation and has
been generously supplied with the
accompanying map by Mr.. Frank
K. Henry and his associate. also a
geologist and oil opera

AMERICANS NOW LOOK
TO TIDEWATER

what was more llkely 10 result
from this Canadian activity, then,
than a renewal of an early proposal
to tap the Puget Sound and foreign
oil market by an all American line
from Montana through to some a.
valuable point on the Sound?
So far as it is now revealed this
project is merely in the formative
stage. Surveys have been made, it
is true, and several routes have
been considered.
1t is also estimated that because
of the comparatively short distance
from Montana to Underwater (from
450 to 500 miles airline) such
line can be constructed for approx
mately $10,0OO,00O. 1t would fol-
low the most direct highway and
cross the Cascades at the most ad-
point. We have been as
sured that the Cascade Pass in the
Cascades is being considered and
that more recently thought is being
given to Harris Pass. Harris Pass is
a short distance northeast of the
present mining development in east
ern Whatcom county to which a
is now being constructed
from the site of the Ruby Creek
dam. A highway is already con-
to Harris Pass from the
East and this small gap from the
mining highway would have to be
completed if line would follow that
course and thus down Ruby Creek
Ind down the Skagit river.

OTHERS VIEWS
ABOUT CHURCH MEMBERS.

To the Editor:
Mr.. Wright you are right when you
made the distinction between the
church member and the non-church
member.
You know the Good Book tells us
the sheep and the goats will be divid-
ed in the world to come, but it looks
to me as if it were now they are divid-
ed the goats never go to church on
Sunday, but they always butt the
church member and the preacher. We
take knock for boost when man
gets his tongue ready to criticize. He
turns loose, talks about Gods people
and the church, but he never goes
to see what he is talking about. Some
times he says the preachers salary
is too much, but what does he know
about that, when he doesn't ever go,
or take a part in its support? It's just
another knock. Now we never get de-
Tended when we are talked about, for
we know we are bound along the
right route. We remember what
Jesus says, "Come, follow me, and
will make you fishers of men,. We
will keep on fishing till we fish you
