FAJj OR U1 VISION fppniHvMiMv wwwmikimmw HOUSEWARES DEPX. FOR TOWBOAT Pusher and Barge Off on Trip to Memphis with 150 Tons The Sioux City, towboat of the Sioux Citv-New Orleans Barge Lines, Inc.

left here Monday morn ing for a downstream trip to Mem phis, with 150 tons oi lowa corn. The towboat left on its-first commercial haul down the Mis souri river exactly two weeks alter its arrival here to complete the first all-commercial packet trip this far north since 1881. Capt. James Campbell was piloting the towboat as it left its temporary docks at the foot of Virginia street at 11 a. m.

and Georee R. CalL president of the company, went aboard for part of the first day's trip. Mr. Call remained on the tow- boat until it arrived off Sergeant Bluff about 3:30 o'clock in the afternoon, then returned to Sioux City by automobile. He reported that the towboat experienced some difficulty because of low water, explaining that the river stage had dropped two feet within the last two weeks.

The 'toughest" part of the tow- boat's trips up and downstream is between Sioux City and Nebraska City, Mr. Call said, due to the fact that channel work has not been completed along that stretch of the river. Beyond Nebraska City, comparatively "smooth sail ing" prevails. The Sioux City will pick up ap proximately 100 more tons of corn at Kansas City and 250 more at St. Louis, the amount depending to some extent on channel conditions.

It is hoped, Mr. Call said, that the cargo will amount to 500 tons when the towboat reaches Memphis 1,400 miles from Sioux City.

MILLER gusted with the long delay and bought the old Combination bridge by floating a $1,850,000 issue of revenue bonds. The purchase was made in the hope that some day 15 or.

20 years from' now, perhapsthe residents of Iowa and Nebraska will be able to carry on a free trade with one another. Now it has been suggested that a new bridge, designed to accomodate modern motorized traffic, can be built for $1,000,000, that the federal government will provide half that sum, and that the state of Nebraska already has signified its willingness to contribute toward opening the door to Iowa. That would seem to mean that if we had $250,000 for the purpose on this sideof the river, we could go ahead with the bridge. Four attempts have given us a fairly clear and understandable answer from the. state legislature but we still do not know what the people of Our Town think about it.

We've never had a chance to register an opinion on the matter. COCHRAN PICKS DRAFT BOARDS Officials to Administer Act Announced in Nebraska Lincoln.

BY NEIL Where Do We Stand? FOR more than 50 years Sioux City people have written, talked and-dreamed about a free-' bridge across the Missouri river at this point. Twenty years ago, when the horse and buggy era was beginning to wane ana our middle west civilization became mechanized, agitation for a free hridffe took a more active form. It has flamed and died sporadically ever since. Various efforts have, been made to get the legislatures of Iowa and Nebraska to pass bills and appropriations for a bridge which would link instead of separate the states. Nebraska finally passed a bill providing for such a bridge, but Iowa legislatures of 1927, 1929, 193r and 1933 voted the project down.

To date the people of Sioux City who, after all, are more concerned than anyone else, never have been asked to give an official expression of their opinion. Two years ago, Dakota county, just across the river, became dis- to Hornick with her parents when she was 14 years old. After residing there for several years, Mrs. Ferguson moved to Des Moines. Three years ago she went to California.
