Light Crews Kept
Busy After Wind

Mondays breezes kept city light
line crews busy until late In the
night, Utilities Commissioner
o'Neil reported Tuesday morning.
In fact, they still haven't found
what caused an Outrage of about
six hours in the south end. though
they finally did get power To flow
past the switches along toward
midnight. The most troubled circuit
affected the area on Pacific from
So. ssth to saith, on So. 3sth and
4sth. and Fawcett, So. Tacoma
ave. and So. C st.
The same trouble experienced In
the windstorm before this hap
pened again on the tideflats, O'Neil
said. when a cable attached to the
stack at the Northwest Door plant
blew across the city's 1S.o00-volt
line to ST. Regis-kraft pulp mill.
The mill line was shorted. Another
line blew down across the gulch
east of the county hospital.

Meters Take"
S36l.36 in Week

Nickels rolled into the city treas
urer's office in a steady. rafting
stream Tuesday. bringing the total
take in the first weeks partial
operation of parking meters to
1851 Sc.
That isn't all the income the
city has had from the meters,
though. City Clerk Genevieve
Martin has seen more parking
meter money thus far than Finance
Commissioner Fawcett. In quar-
terly IS fees for 81 meter hoods
issued to trucking firms OF the city,
she has collected S305, while de-
posts Of $3.50 per hood have
brought in S152.50 more, a total
Of Ss1ss6.
The odd pennies are represented
in attempts of the motoring citi-
zenry to make the nickel meters
work for a cent. They won't click
off a single second. though. for
anything but a five cent piece or
very good imitation of one. Some
motorists, apparently, have tried to
get two hours of parking for a
dime. The treasurer's collectors
have discovered number OF dimes
in the meter boxes. Like the pen
MES. they merely drop through
without registering.
Since the meters still are being
installed and a regular collection
system has not yet been estsb-
lished. ii was impossible for city
officials TO determine whether the
parking meters are taking in the
estimated amount Of new revenue.

Governor
TOCapitaI?
It's Denied
BY THEODORE HUNTLEY
Times stan Correspondent

WASHINGTON. Jan. 29.-Who
wants 20 get Gov. Murray ID
Van Wagner out of the state
house in Lansing and down here
in a New Deal Job?
The mystery deepened today
with denials that the governor had
been offered such an assignment
or that any one had sounded him
out on il. The latter assurance
reached here from Michigan.
One of the governors intimates
has told friends here:
THAT Van Wagner Is not
l. looking for a job in WASH
ington, no matter how impOr-
tant, and would not consider
quitting the governorship 70 be-
come identified with the national
administration unless drafted
BY President Roosevelt himself.
dstyr
- as 1t II his preference, to
serve out the term for which
he was elected.
o-In view of Michigan's key
- relationship TO the defense
program, he regards the COVER
norship as important as any
job he could be offered here.
So far as any one here can dis
cover. President Roosevelt coulC
have no political purpose in draft
ing the Michigan executive for wal
service in Washington.
The report that such a move
was under consideration gained
currency the day Lieut.. Gov
Frank Murphy called at the White
House to see the President. only
to find him i'll and unable to keeI
official engagements in the ex'
ecutive office.
The story was that. If brought
into the national picture the gov
ernor would head a new highway
coordination program.
But no one could be found who
would admit knowing anything
about it. and the governor
friends here are advising him tc
stay where he is.

The WPA application was made
last September at the request of
Mayor Jeffries. who asked that as
much of the 7chool building pro-
gram as possible be constructed
with WPA labor.
The board instructed the bust
ness department to ask for bids
from private contractors providing
the approval of the projects is
not made by WPA officials in
Washington, d. C.. within 10 days.
These buildings are estimated TO
cost Sl54000 by private contrac-
tors. The board had estimated
that they might have been built
for as little cost to the city as
Sl0l 900 under WPA.
Six other school additions have
already been completed or are
under construction by the board.
All these were let TO private con-
