'Starch Plant
Site Selected
TULELAKE, June 22 The
location of the Northwest Che
murgy cooperative starch fac-
tory has been definitely settled
with the purchase of a potato
' celler owned by G. W. Osborn
and son. The celler, situated
' east of the Southern Pacific
' tracks at Hatfield, is 300 feet
long and above ground.
Three carloads of machinery
have already been unloaded at
the celler. The machinery was
brought from a government-
owned starch plant in Laurel,
Miss. Although it was installed
in a factory there for the pro
cessing of sweet potatoes, it was
never used.
Construction Is expected to
get underway by the first of
- next week, and they plan to be
in operation in time for the
- potato crop. Clarence Rice of
Wena tehee, Wash., is In charge
' of the construction.
When complete the factory
1 will be on a 24-hour schedule
c and 25 men will be employed.
I Besides additional remodeling,
" it is probable that glucose ma
' chinery will be added to the
J factory before winter.
Approximately $100,000 for
' construction was raised by farm
ers before June 1.
' Housing Authorities
Denounce Rent Order
PORTLAND. Ore.. June 22
(IP) Housing authority commis-
. sioners of Portland, Clackamas
county. Ore- and Clark county.
Wash., said today that a fed
' eral public housing authority
, rent oraer is unfair and they
will not follow it.
The order provides for ad
justing rents on the basis of
Income. This, the commission
ers said, would be unfair to
low-income families unable to
get space in public housing pro
jects and would tend to make
all temporary housing low-rent
and permanent. They agreed,
however, that it was proper to
adjust rents on an income basis
for veterans and welfare cases.
Industrialization
Of China Favored
PORTLAND, June 22 (JP)
China- should industrialize un
der management of her own
citizens, even if the capital is
borrowed from the United
States or private investors, the
Northwest Institute of Interna
tional Relations was told yes
terday. -
Dr. C. K. Yang of the Uni
versity of Washington declared
the postwar rush of foreign
firms to establish plants in
China was "ominous. That na
tion suffers if foreign investors
control her factories and take
away the profit, he said.

Other mains to be installed will

Copco officials say that work
cam be finished in a short time
if the right-of-way is established.
There are still several buildings
to be moved, which is holding
up work. A shortage of house
movers is named as the reason
for the delay.
Cable Needed
Approximately 7000 feet of un
derground conduit has been laid
by the telephone company along
Sixth street, but as yet the com
pany has been unable to acquire
the necessary cable. Company
officials also name a 30 to 60-day
period for completion of work
once the necessary materials are
at hand.
Phone service will not be in
terrupted at any time, but it is
hoped that the underground
cable will arrive before the pres
ent posts have to be moved in
connection with the physical
widening of the street.
some 20UU feet of underground
sewer has been laid by Harry
Hamilton, subcontractor, along
the Sixth street route. Warren
Northwest, contractor, reports
that about 80 per cent of the
clearing and grubbing of trees
along tne right of way has been
completed.
There still remains pre-con-
stmrtinn work tn b done, hut
work on the street will start
soon, and highway officials say
that south sixth will be tied up
for several months after con
struction begins. One lane of
traffic will be kept open at all
times, but this will probably be I
inadequate to handle the normal I
flow of traffic.
