Clearing Homily Rapids
Puts Town at Head Of
Navigation

IL may not be necessary to wait
for the construction OF the Umatilla
dam before transportation on the
river can be extended 70 Kenne-
wick. This information was secur-
ed at the sixth annual meeting or
the Inland Empire Waterways
Transportation Associations meet
ing held at Walla Walla yesterday.
@. L. Powell, who attended the
meeting as the delegate from the
Kennewick chamber OF commerce,
reported this noon that assurance
had been given him that distractions
in the river channel at Homily
Rapids, which up to now has pre-
vented traffic, could be removed
In a comparatively short time.
Heretofore army engineers have
refused to expend funds on the up
per channel because with the con-
struction OF the Umatilla dam this
obstruction would be eliminated.
Now, however, that the department
has its own dredge on the river
work, the job could be handled on
force account without the legal
red tape hindering the operation.
Further, with the rapid increase
in the use OF the river for transport
tation, more attention is being paid
to the upper reaches. Clearing OF
the channel would require but about
months work, II is reported.
Plans now under consideration
include the formation OF a grain
growers organization on the Ken
newick side OF the river TO use bulk
shipments, as well as preparation for
oil and other commodities.
A committee. headed by Ed Web
ber has been given the matter In
charge, with instructions 70 use
every effort to secure prompt action
In the matter. Aid OF the Kenne-
wick Port District officials is to be
enlisted.
