BLASTING IS SPECTACULAR
Columbia Highway Travelers Awed
by Work on Washington Side.
Blasting on the big sentinel rock on
the Washington side of the Columbia
River yesterday gave travelers over
the Columbia River Highway in that
vlcinv a thrill that for the moment
surmounted 'the beauty of the scenery.
Workmen were engaged In tearing
away the rock for the trail, which is
being built up the Sentinel. From
across the river the report from the
blasting camo over to the Oregon side
like the roar of a cannon. The first
blast mystified the highway travelers.
A second later huge volumes of smoke
and dust rose. .
Travelers over the highway gathered
In crowds to watcb the unusual operation.
The fact that the blasting was prac
tically on the peak of the big rock,
added to its spectacular nature.

Three Men Arrested.

Campaign for Trutb Is Prosecuted
Vigorously Promoters of Scheme
Are Said to Have Realized
Fortune by Activities.
WASHINGTON, Aug. 3. As the re
suit of an investigation which is con
ducted at the request of the Associ
ated Advertising Clubs of the World
in their campaign for "truth in adver
tising," the Postoffice Department to
day issued a fraud order against the
International Automobile League, Inc.;
the International Automobile Tire Com
pany, of Buffalo, N. Y., and A. C. Bid-
well, president of both concerns.
The request for investigation was
made to the Postoffice Department by
Merle Sldener. of Indianapolis, chair
man of the National Vigilance Commit
tee of the advertising clubs. Postof
flee Department records show Bldwell
has bean Indicted by a Federal Grand
Jury at Rochester, N. Y.. charged with
using the mails to further a scheme to
defraud, and that he and two of his
agents have been indicted by the Grand
Jury at Fayette County, Pennsylvania,
on a charge of conspiracy to defraud.
Hearings on the complaint covered
4S days, and brought out testimony
that Bidwell and bis agents, soliciting
members for the league at 110 each,
represented that the league had con
tracts with manufacturers of standard
motor car accessories which enabled
the league to serf them to members at
dealers' and manufacturers' prices.
Manufacturers of such products testi
fied that the league had no such con
tracts and it was said that Inferior ac.
cessorles were- offered Instead.
The fraud order also Is based on a
series of other acts held to be illegal
and with intent to defraud. Postof
fice officials say the promoters of the
scheme realized a fortune.
