The Christian Science Monitor and Yakima Sunday Herald fret that Congress favors politics over public welfare in civil rights housing and inflation.

Editorial touts Columbia river water gap as key to Portland trade

The Dalles Optimist quotes Col. O. E. Walsh of the Corps of Engineers on the Columbia river water gap at 72 feet.

Joe Blough faces rising bills and a grumpy mood as headlines on sewer and school bonds flash in the morning paper.

Planning Commission Meets in Benton City

The Benton County Planning Commission held its first meeting in Benton City on a Tuesday evening. Members present were T. E. Brockhausern, Robert C. Evans, Argus Hughes, Frank Clark, R. S. Reieson, Jay Perry, E. J. Brand, and Charles L. Powell. The report notes a new fast open football style for the high school team and introduces Kennewick’s new coach from Illinois with three years of experience. Watermelon thefts and shooting incidents disrupt local patches as growers fear gunfire and rock salt or buckshot among fields. Two boys observing a tire on the highway drew fire from a nervous farmer.
