Twelve new grain elevators
are literally growing at the rate
of an inch every 2 or 8 minutes
at the Wilkins-Rogers Milling
Co. plant at 1851 K street NV.
When completed, the eleva-
tors will provide storage space
for about 175,000 bushels of
grain, thus easying the storage
problem encountered annually
by farmers during the grain
harvest period.
While the elevators will not be
completed in time for the small
grain harvest-the wheat, oats.
barley-they will be in service
to receive the corn as it comes
from area farms.
Swedish Method Used.
The elevators are being con-
structed by Swedish method,
which allows the forms to be
lifted as the concrete is poured.
Thus the elevators actually grow
as the concrete goes into the
forms.
While this method has been
used in elevator construction
elsewhere in this country, this
is the first job in the Nation
where hydraulic jacks have been
used to lift the forms.
The round forms are only four
feet high, and are pushed up
ward by the hydraulic jacks as
the concrete is poured and
hardens. The construction fore
man estimates that the forms
rise at about an inch every two
or three minutes at maximum
pouring capacity.
Cost about S25O,OOO.
Mill officials said the present
storage capacity of the mill IS
about 100000 bushels of grain.
Each year, they said, grain pur-
chased from area farmers must
be shipped to other storage ele-
vators then brought back to
Washington as the mill needs
the grain.
The new elevators, they said,
will enable the mill to handle
more local grain easier.
The new elevators. which will
cost about $250,000. officials
said, are necessary because of
! the charged harvesting methods

Administration May Seek
Modification
No real change in the spirit of
the act was foreseen here by
sources close to the Presidents
Commission as the organization of
the new Congress got under way.
These sources predicted that the
Republican Administration would
seek to modify some administra-
tive technicalities so that the act
might be'more effectively imple-
mented but that it's racist features
and general nature would remain
unchanged.
A move for minor revisions in
the act may be suggested by
President.elect Eisenhower in one
of his first messages TO Congress
but those close TO the immigra.
tion picture fear that no really
important change in the act may
be anticipated. Southern Demo-
Gratis have already indicated that
they will side with conservative
Republicans in defense Of the
1882 act. Sen. Willis Smith. of

that Congress would make no
material changes in the law be-
cause there is nothing materially
wrong with it."
