Melton Cites Reasons
In Support Of Port Plan

Because of little or no opposi-
ton to extending the comprehen-
sive plan OF the Pierce county port
district, proposition on the ballot
next Tuesday, voters have not had
an opportunity of getting a clear
understanding of the proposal"
Guy B. Melton, chairman of the
board of county commissioners,
said Friday. "The manner in which
the question must appear on the
ballot causes 1t to appear in
volved."
In discussing the matter Com
missioner Melton cited 1t has been
project considered by county,
city and port officials for many
months and that this group de-
cided the port district was in the
best position to handle it. He
explained that passage of the pro-
posal means that lands in a speci-
fled district now off the tax rolls
will be turned over TO the port for
creation of an industrial develop
ment district.

special tax to create an indus
trial district. The Port of Van

Lumber Production
On Coast Holds Up

Although west coast lumber in
dustry was compelled to follow a
conservative course during the
month of February, weekly pro-
duction during the month was
127, 034 900 board feet, or 64.5 per
cent of the weekly average for
1926-29, the industry's years of
highest capacity realization.
Orders during the month aver
aged 100, 595, 900 b. f.; shipments,
129, 073,O0O
February was a month of mark
ing time for the coast industry.
Extreme cold weather was a
blockade in the building market
of the midwest and east. The
movement of west coast lumber to
the Atlantic coast was impeded by
scarcity of shipping space; and
during the month this same short
age was extended to the indus
try's coastwise trade with Cali
fornia.

and all but one wing Of the house,
and the farmyard was pock-mark-
ed with bomb craters, and sticking
out of the snow you saw the tin
flanges of many bomb tails.
The Firms in this locality hap
pen not to like bombs very much
and SO do not pick these tails up,
but show them to you by prodding
them distastefully with the toe of
boot as they lie in the deep
snow.
am beginning to acquire a
sympathetic understanding of this
attitude on the part of the Firms
toward Russian bombs.

Safety First
Guidon, Need
Chunge May Result
Due TO Accident

CAMP MURRAY-A new safe

head Is being sought by Brig. Gen.
Maurice Thompson, the adjutant
general, for use In the national
guard as a result of the recent
nearly fatal injury TO First sergt.
Don Davies at the Tacoma armory.
Gen. Thompson disclosed today
that he has received quotations
from four Tacoma firms on modi-
fled heads for guidon staffs and
that he also has written to the
chief OF the national guard bureau
Of the war department. calling
attention to the danger in the type
Of lance head recently supplied to
guard units in this state.
Surmounted BY Hall
1T Ii strongly urged" he wrote
to Washington, that the danger
incident TO this type OF guidon
staff head be suggested to the
9udftffUlastsi Ettittai VI tffr amy
and that some other ornamental
but less dangerous form be substi-
tuted."
In the suggested designs sub
mitted TO Gen. Thompson, the
lance is surmounted by a ball.
Injured Feb. Is
Sergt. Davies, who is also a
member Of the Tacoma police de-
partment, was injured the evening
of Feb. 10 following regular ar
mory drill. He was walking
hurriedly out Of his company
office just as a guidon bearer
lowered the lance to enter the
office door, TO put the guidon away
for the night.
The sharp bronze point struck
Davies below one eye and pene-
trated his skull above the other.
Meningitis set in from the result
ing infection. Use of a miraculous
new drug saved Davies life after
attending physicians had almost
given UP hope. He is now con-
valescing at his home.

light and no one can be sure that a
squadron of Russian planes strag-
Cling back from bombing the
coastal cities might not see us be-
fore we see them, and might not
dive from behind us when we could
neither see them nor hear their mo-
tors because of the hum Of ours in
the closed car, and give us two or
three belts Of machine gun bullets,
and when you have seen what a
mess this makes of a car, when
the driver is killed and it is piled
up nose down in a ditch, you do
not want it to happen to you, and
you keep rolling down the car
window, in spite Of the bitter cold,
and looking out behind, and then
rolling it up again.
And we have had enough of
planes. In this country, because
the roads are bad, they Use planes
instead of artillery on the fighting
lines-that is, the Russians do but
the Firms have neither planes nor
artillery, or anything heavier than
machine gun that we were able
to see or hear.
So, because there is no Finnish
anti-aircraft, the Russians can fly
very low over the Finnish lines,
and spot their detectives nicely.
And the Firms pop away at them
from behind trees with rifles, but,
of course, almost never get one,
and when their wings turn slowly
in the sun and they dive and the
bombs cut loose from under their
wings and there is then a geyser
of snow and after that a roar, it
may be very beautiful but 1t is
not fun TO watch.
We had watched 1t all day and
so we did not like planes any
more.
Second line headquarters had
been a Finnish house-both the
house and the barns and the out
buildings made of carefully trim
med logs, and beautifully joined
at the corners. The log cabins
which our pioneers built in the
west were crudely made and
clumsily joined because none of
them expected to live his life in
log cabin.
But such home here Is built

I'VE now have parity with that
area on large blocks of power and
an advantage on smaller units of
electricity. With industrial sites
on deep water we can bid for any
firm looking to the Pacific North

of the county commissioners
stated.
He pointed out that adoption Of
the proposal affords opportunity of
giving citizens jobs and put

rolls. The land now is entirely
