GE's Founder
Coming Back Soon

y Herbert A. Hover, after whom
the town of Hover is named and
who is often given credit for
being the founder of Kennewick,
is coming back to his old stamp
ing grounds this fall.
Hover, who has. rolled up a
total of a million miles of ground
covered in his days, now more
than 80 years old, is on a tour
that will cover much of the U.S.A.
and extend down into Mexico,
the West Indies and South Am
erica. Kennewick will be one of
the places he and Mrs. Hover will
visit on this tour.
In letters to the Courier Report
er and L. E. Johnson, one of his
old Kennewick friends, Hover
said he was looking forward to
the trip here and to meeting
many of my old friends"
On reading that part of the
letter, Johnson remarked: 81
guess he will be disappointed;
most of his old friends have left
here"
Another old friend of Hover's
is M. M. Moulton, Kennewick
lawyer, who used to handle
Hover's legal work when he was
in the real estate business here.

Fire Destroys
Barn, Contents

Fire, caused by spontaneous
combustion, destroyed a barn
and its contents Sunday after
noon. The barn was owned by
Tom c. Wolter, route one, Ken
newick, who lives near Finley.
Wolter told the Herald that
new mown hay, the last Of which
had been placed in the barn
Thursday, was probably respon-
sibIe for causing the fire. 1T
couldn't have been due to an
electrical short circuit" Wolter
said, because the fire started
on the side of the barn opposite
the electrical wiring"
Value of the 20 tons of hay
was estimated at S430, the cur.
rent market price. Two wagons,
one empty and one filled with
hay were also destroyed In the
blaze as were two sets Of har-
ness.
The farmer said there was
S1.5OO insurance on the barn
itself. However, he added that
it would be impossible to replace
the structure for that amount
of money. Total loss because
of the fire was estimated at
$500 by the Kennewick fire
department.
Assistant Fire Chief Johnnie
Dickinson led the Kennewick
volunteer fire department In
fighting the blaze.

VIEWPOINTS

Although the question of a

headlines last week, the man
who has worked for a business
license ordinance for years does.
Mt see any real prospect of the
license question being straigh.

That statement came from

aside at council meeting which
was heard by only two persons

LARK and your correspondent.
The council may even let the
matter drag for a while again
pee ause of the opposition which
mas arisen from so many against
the proposals which have been
made. Every time a proposed
plan is announced. you find a
slzeable group against it.
Glen Sherman, who hasn't
done a lot of fronting for any
organization up to Tuesday
night, gained the respect of adj
vocates and foes alike in his ar.
gument against the tax. Pacing
back and forth in front of the
council members, Sherman de-
tailed his objections, which in.
Guided that it was discrimina-
tory, unfair, and would be a
detriment to the community.
Mayor Keolker sat poker faced
until Sherman said it was class
legislation. Then he demanded
an explanation. Sherman ex.
planned that it laid an unfair
tax burden on a separate class
of citizens.
The gross receipts plan will
be fought to the bitter end by
Councilman Fred Bunch. He
doesn't like the receipts idea and
objects still more to one.tenth of
one per cent as the rate of take.
Bunch pointed out that some
merchants have a high gross
income but that the net profit is
very small and that if you take
out any more of that profit and
add 1t on to other taxes, you don't
have much left and in some

WaIIa WaIIan Will Run
City Bus Line If 0K'd

Only formal action by the
Kennewick city counril remain
ed last night to set in operation
a new fleet of buses that will
give the city a new local trans
portation system.
The last service was discontin-
ued July 7 when r. L. Hayford
reported that lack of patronage
made it impossible for him to
meet his insurance costs. He had
earlier taken the franchise from
James Winder who also with.
drew because he was losing
money.
When contacted by telephone
at Walla Walla by the HERALD,
Neal said the situation had de.
veloped rather fast and that he
was not certain on all phases of
operation.
Right now, he is getting his
equipment together, he said.
Present plans call for a three.

bus system with two operating
and one in reserve. The routes
the BUSES will follow have not
yet been mapped out, but Neal
reported that he and Dick Rector,
city superintendent, intended to
get together some time next
week.
AS to fares, he reported the
prospective fare for adults at II
cents, with the children's fare
halved. Later, a three for 35-
cent token may be used. There
will be transfer privileges.
When Hayford stopped operat-
ing, he figured his earnings at
S2.13 day. This didn't allow for
depreciation of equipment. He
reported averaging $50 fares a
day.
Schedules are tentatively set
for 30 minutes on EACH route, but
may be changed to IS minutes,
depending on loads.

Sales Tax
Held Up BY
Opposition

A license ordinance for bust.
ness places in Kennewick and a
nuisance ordinance, which were
soundly denounced at a meet
Ing Of the Avenue C. Merchants
association were shelved o I
the time bling Tueoaay night
after a ha1f-hour denunciation
of the two measures by Glenn
Sherman, Kennewick grocer.
: Sherman, who owns both the
Tri-City Food Center and Sher-
mans Market, said the license
ordinance which the council had
passed on first and second read
ings, was a discriminatory mea-
sure. It would cost him $1,000 a
year alone, he said.
After Sherman's talk, and
statements from several others,
Mayor Keolker said: II don't
think we are ready to act on this
ordinance or the nuisance ordi.
nance until we have given them
further study"
LEVY ON RECEIPTS
The licensing ordinance would
have levied a gross receipts tax
of one.tenth of one percent on
all business, but Keolker and
others had suggested that if the
ordinance is passed probably
some lower rate would be advis'
able.
: Sherman said there were good
points in the ordinances but he
listed these general objections:
1. It is class legislation in that
It puts a special tax on a single
group of citizens out of proper
tion to others.
2. It is not fair because mar.
gins of gross profits vary all the
way from 5 per cent to 60. per.
cent.
8. It would tend to keep large
Industries out of the community
because their percentage of pro-
fit is so small that in some cases
the tax would take away Is pei
cent of the net profit.
FLAT LICENSE URGED
The Avenue c merchants hao
passed a recommendation that
flat license of SIS for each bust
ness be adopted. Sherman said
he did not object to some kline
of set figure or scale of licenses
