These men have been proved a strong organ ization and have done the work loyally and without labor difficulties. If there is any big job near they should be transferred in body and another defense project completed and made ready for the emergen cies that are likely to arise. We could also suggest that back in Washington they speed up the Umatilla Dam, or some of the talk ed about projects near here where these men are al ready entrenched, or could soon be called back to work. This includes the common labor, skilled work men, engineers, contractors, and Federal officials who have built the Umatilla Ordnance Depot ahead of scheduled time. Has the Ignited States a like or ganization? ONLY THE BEGINNING OF THINGS Hermiston is in the center of a defense area. There is yet much to be done and the temporary slump in the progress of its full development should be con sidered only a reorganization of effort to complete the plan as a whole. Madam Rumor is busy on Main street, at the mess hall and in trailer camps, and things are happening roundabout. Something defin ite should be announced soon. The government has acquired title to 125,000 acres in this base of operations, and surveyors have set stakes on hill and plain and along the banks of the Columbia. One would require the fingers of both hands to count the projects that have been set out in the limelight in this geographical center of the Pa cific Northwest. While we are in the hands of the Government, there is much that this community can do to assist in the completion of a program that is definitely outlined by location, the emergencies of the times, the writings on the wall and the progress already made.
