The Secret: Production
Production offers the only means
of creating wealth. A measure of
our productive capacity occurred
during the last two years of World
War II, when we produced more ar
maments than our enemies and our
allies combined. Now that produc-
tive capacity is giving to us auto
mobiles, radios, telephones, refriger-
ators, store bought clothing, var
iety of food-yes, a standard of iv-
ing the like of which no segment of
the human race before ever exper-
fenced.
A similar production record in
China, in India, or Africa would dis
pei the poverty that is proverbial
there. If Russia had productive
capacity equal to ours she would in
generation dominate and rule all
of the earth.

TOKYO, Japan Oct. l - Two

writing should be practiced with a

The demand went to the Diet

Magic City Of Washington Will
Become New Metropolis Of West
Predictions of Things To Come
BV Jesse r. Harris

This is an article about the
Magic City of the Columbia
Basin Project. l call it the
Magic City for many reasons.
The city is Moses Lake,
Washington.
I have been around here long
time watching it grow from-a little
place along the road to a city of
$500 inhabitants and believe me
it really hasn't started yet. l be-
lieve it can well be called Magic
City," Things have happened here
that have caused people to make
fortunes over night.
Moses Lake is located on High
way No. 10 by Moses Lake, from
which it gets its name. The lake
was named after Chief Moses, an
Indian Chief who once ruled the
territory. 1t is also located in the
center of the great Columbia Basin
project. We have in the surround
ing area 10000 acres under irriga-
ton. A total of $1,000 acres under
irrigation is expected by 1852.
Greatest Irrigation Project
Anything you plant will grow
here. One can readily see what this
will mean to future development.
l honestly and truly believe Moses
Lake will be the center of the
greatest industrial and farming
empire of the entire Columbia
Basin project, if not in the entire
west.
Never before in its 100 years of
eNistance has the Department of
Interior undertaken greater ir-
rigation project. One can hardly
realize the immensity of this under
taking. Over 100000 acres are to
be irrigated in the entire project.
The Magic City with it's fabulous
growth in the past, in the future
will be called the metropolis of the
great new empire of the west,

You businessmen looking for
industrial sites and you farmers
that have vision and are looking
