If Mr. Hoover should name both

this would leave only two places
to go to tho middle western wheat,

been assumed that the eighth place
will go to Alexander Legee, presi

intended to satisfy requests that

Tho new station will. It Is also
understood, be two stories and
basement, with completo office fa
cilities for the division officials and
employes on the second floor, as
well as having ample waiting
rooms and the usual terminal fa
cilities of tho modern railway sta
tion. The Uuildlng; will be set so as to
allow wlilo driveway approaches
and adequate parking space.
There has been no definite Inti
mation of tho typo of construction
or architecture but the sizo of thy
appropriation is sufficient to Indi
cate a beautiful structure that will
be a credit to La Grande and the
railroad company. It will be thor
oughly modern in every respect.
Whether or not tho detailed
plans have been completed could
not be learned today but it is un
derstood from un nuthorltatlve
source that officials hope to sec
construction started this summer
propably within the next month,
and ra-pidly rushed to completion.
Announcement of tho new sta
tion means tho realization of one
of the fondest dreams of La Grande
people, who huvo considered the
old nu!tdlng Inadequate and un
sightly for miany years. Tho pres
ent structure .was ono of the big
gest antl. finest on the line when !t
wa sconstructed many years ago.
At that time La Grande was a town
of only about 2,000 population and
subsequent growth has sent the city
