WHY NOT SHIP BUILDING?
out of the huge. spending program for national:
defense which is being scattered broadcast over!
only present prospect is for the improvement of'
its airport along with numerous other such ports
over the state.
Grays Harbor which is in much the same lack
of federal interest is working out a plan for build—
ing some of the hundreds of ships, large and small!
for which the government is advancing funds and‘
giving out contracts; recalling the era of wooden
ships of which the Harbor built several in the
last war.
Shelton is an ideal location for the building
of small vessels, tugs, trawlers and mine-sweep-
ers, with its several acres of filled grounds and
near sawmills which could turn out all the fin—
ished materials required on short notice; away!
from the congestion of the cities for labor andi
for living quarters. i
It may be agreed that conditions are notl
altogether pleasing for the investment of capital
in new industries, likely to be followed with new
labor problems, and more or less uncertainty of
profit after the government taxing is cared for;
yet there will be several years ahead of heavy
shipbuilding to supply present urgent needs not
to speak of the demand to rebuild the lost mer-
chant marine which has been sunk. This looks like
now being urged, and it is worthy of consideration.
HOUSING PROJECT FOR SHELTON
better housing and will be even more needful be
fore the season is far advanced it is doubtful if
the situation in this community would justify
seeking a Federal Housing Project as is being
done in some places and has been suggested here.
Shelton is not suffering so badly as yet to
call in federal aid when plenty of local funds
should be available for new homes here, and thus
keep the normally expected business in the hands
of local finance and material dealers, contractors,
,real estate and workmen.
Building a flock of stock houses too far in
advance of the needs and thus discouraging pri»
vate investment, with perhaps a sad aftermath,

Mrs. F‘red S. Wright and Mr. and
Mrs. Reinhart Goetsch called at

such as has followed. such federal aid in other
places and in past crises, is not substantial town
[building nor insurance for future.
Individual home building and interest is the
solution for current needs and would be encour-
aged by easier money available to those who
[would build homes for, themselves, if within
ireach; but mass building which would increase
Icosts of finished homes, even if financed with
ifederal aid, would discourage private investment
Iand do more harm than good.
DESTIN ED FOR THE PARK
The testimony
park superintendent, that the government does
lnot intend to add the Queets corridor and the
beach strip, which are being acquired by Score .,
tary lakes of the interior department in the guise
of a public works recreational project, to the park
lrepresents, without doubt, Mr. Macy’s conviction,
lbut unless they are to beadded to the park, there
iis no point in acquiring them. Whether they
ladded to the park or not, the lands and their re~
isourcesare to be withdrawn from use, and in that
‘sense, they might as well be in the park as out of
The Queets corridOr cuts Off the Olympic
{peninsula from Grays Harbor —— it bars access
Ifrom the south, except such access as Mr. Ickes
is pleased to grant. If the corridor is not to be
added to the park, the Harbor has a right to as—
sume... that its acquisition well may have been de-
signed as a punishment to the Harbor for its oppo-
sition to the creation of the unwarrantedly large
national park. If that is not the reason and if
there is no intention to add the corridor and the
beach strip to the park, then what can have been
the purpose in the government’s acquiring the
lands? And how are the corridor and the beach
strip to-be administered? Why, by the parks bu-
reau, so far as the available information goes, of
the interior department. They may not be added
formally to the park, but to all intents and pur—
poses, they are part of the park. As for a recrea-'
tional area, the government has in the park more
than 800,000 acres of recreational area; it doesl
not need the 50,000 acres of the Queets corridor
and the beach strip.
We do not question Mr. Macy’s words or good
faith, but we have no doubt that the corridor and
the beach strip Will be added to the park in due!
