Holmes Files for Congress Race:
Biohland Democrat In Contest
Republican incumbent Hal
Holmes ﬁled this week for re
election to Congress from the
fourth district. Mr. Holmes is in
the state this week making sev
eral calls and exnects to return at
once to Washingtc't.
First candidate to file for Con
gress from the Fourth district is
‘Jesse H. Smithson of Richland on
the Democratic ticket. Mr. Smith
}son is an engineer and attorney
now living in Richland where he
is employed in the DuPont plant.
He practiced law in Nashville,
Tenn., where he gained a wide
‘knowledge of the TVA, before
coming to Washington. He states
that he feels this knowledge will
be useful in the development of
the Columbia basin. '
Speaking before the Benton
County Democratic Central com

Council Talks
Building Plans
Willi Legion .
Kennewick’s city council Tucs
day night discussed with mem
bers of the local American Legion
preliminary plans for the con
struction of a Legion hall on the
city lots facing Benton street op
posite the new Ford garage.
These lots were returned to the
city by action in wigs: Roger
Records was refunded ' earnest
money on a purchase plan. Be
cause of the freeze on commercial
buildings Mr. Records was not
able to complete the building on
the lots as required in the original
transaction. A covenant in the
sale contract at that time required
that the purchaser must build
within six months on the lots.
Because veterans can secure
priorities it is belived that it
would be possible to construct a
Legion hall. The present hall is
entirely inadequate for the needs
of the organization. No commit
ment was made and a further
stugy of the proposal will be
ma e. '
First reading was given to an
ordinance which will make it
possible for the city to m vari
ous city employees on the ﬁrst
of each month rather than to wait
until the vouchers can be passed
at the immuncil meetm' g of the
month. sometimes results in
pay vouchers being held up as late
as'the eighth of the month.
A Larry Oliver was appointed by
Mayor J. C. Pratt to represent the
council on a city-wide War Mem
orial committee. _
Final reading and passage was
given to an ordinance pmvidhg
a. franchise for the Union Pacific
railway to construct a spur to
serve the K&P Kennewick can
nery.

velopment of atomic energy. How
ever, legislation will determine
this and political pressure will
have a bearing.” He advocated the
fullest development of atomic en

As a native' son strong support
is evident in Richland.
