Standard Oil Company of California is a full partner in the venture. About 35.- 000 acres are involved in the pro- ject in Kitsap, Pierce and Mason counties. The well ste is approx- imately 15 miles northwest of Ta- coma, near the location of the Ta- coma Narrows Bridge. Exact lo- cation is 17£)0 feet north, 900 feet west of southeast corner, Section 11, Township 22N, Range lW. Ac- tual drilling is planned to start some time in the latter part of September. Standard of' Califor- nia recently has drilled, two tin- successful wells in Washington. Ferndale Community 11, No. 61 was drilled north of Bellingham, starting November 1945, ;rod end- ing in :May 1946 when the well was abandoned as a dry hole at 6.230 feet.

ITH a proposal to build a scenie hig'hway route through the Olympics f r o m Graves Creek neat" Quinault to l he end of the present higlxway at the Skokomish Staircase def- initely rejected as not possessing the desired attractions and being too costly to construct, unother proposal for another route steps h} l he front and according to its boosters is far more attractive lhan the other. Ignar A. Olson of Quinault, owner of a lodge at Enchanted Valley and an expert en all of the Olympic wilderness through his years of service as a packer for the Forest Service, says the route from Graves Creek to the Dosewallips river road would fill every detail of the type of road resired. Accord- ing to Mr. Olson, the route would follow along a grade titat would be easy and less costly to con- struet and that it would open up dozens of, beattiful mountain l)aradises that are today seldom if ever reached. The new road wonld provide a ten year period of annnal lrips to new areas and the road would provide nmgnifi- cent scenic views to the tolrist. The proposed Graves Creek-Brin- non road has the approval of the parks service and Mr. Olson he- lieves that tile entire Peninsula country should get behind such a program. A little in the way of construc- tive suggestion, directed in the proper direction sometintes does a world of good and this cohlmn takes this occasion to commend the of forts of Coach Red Smith and his band of high school gridsters 'Phcir first victory in the lasl let] slarts crime last Fri- day night with ihe highly touted Elma stars ns the victims.

KIMBEL ENTERPRISES GmSDALE CONSTRUCTI(}N CO, The dispatch overlooked entirely another highly significant com- parison in the U. S. Department of Commerce compilation on which the news article was baaed. The omission was the relative stand- ing of the State of Washlffgton in the matter of income payments to individuals; in other words, the ability of citizens to pay taxes. According to the federal figures, Washington'state citizens last year had a per capita income of $1,- 453. This was only $45 off-the national average of $1,408. It plac- ed us twenty-first in the nation! Wc were fourteenth prior to the war. We zoomed to third for one year during the height of this state's wartime prosperity. In ]947, wc skidded to seventeenth.' Today, we stand twenty-first among the 48 states in relative ability to pay taxes. Second in puying state taxes; well up am- ong the first.ten in paying state and local taxes Washington statc still is in the grip of the spenders who recklessly plunge ahead with their special-interest programs ap- parently without regard for the painfully plain fac that govern- merit costs in this state are all out of line with the financial abil- ity of our people to pay fox' them.
