The caravan will leave Friday morning, starting at 9:30 oclock, and will go directly to Moab, probably stopping for a short period at Green River. The Grand fair opened yesterday, having three days to run, closing tomorrow night. Frank Bry-nis chairman of the committee on arrangements and has as his associates in mapping plans William Grogan and Elmer Young. Mr. Bryner announced yesterday that at least fifteen cars are expected to make the trip. A goodly portion of the day will be spent at Moab and then the majority will in all probability continue on a trip up the Colorado river to Cisco and then on into Grand Junction. The goodwill tour is the result of a similarly planned jaunt originally organized for last spring but which failed to materialize. It is the desire of those making the arrangements that as many as possible join in the caravan. The caravan will assemble at the court house for departure at nine oclock.

Among plans for the future is the development of a rodeo program to be held in Price. With the splendid geographic location of this community making it the ideal center as eastern Utahs entertainment and marketing point the improved outdoor field w ill complete an excellent combination. The Price city administration has carried responsibility in the plan for the development of the entertainment grounds and much credit is due those in charge of the citys affairs for the excellent foresight shown. Initiatory operation of a battery of newly installed modern coke ovens, reported as numbering approximately one hundred, has been carried on at the mining property of the Columbia Steel company during the past two weeks, according to word brought here. This is said to be the first time that such a large number of units of this new type of oven has been in operation at one point in the nation, the equipment being the first of its kind in use west of the Mississippi river. It is understood that the new type oven makes possible the saving of more SEEK EXTENSION OF WATER SYSTEM Possibility of securing government aid in the extension of the Price City water line to the Carbon counfy airport, a step which would add vastly to the material value of the local landing field .depends entirely upon the type of which may be secured here, according to those who handle governmental project expenditures in this area. It is understood that a project could be prepared through which the government would supply labor in the value of four thousand dollars and material valued at well over one thousand dollars if the local sponsorship at a cost of about fifteen hundred dollars could be developed. Price city is unable to carry on such work due to the fact that the work would be outside of the city limits. In addition to the water system being used for the airport if such extension could be made there are quite a number of residents living on the route through which the pipe line would travel who could make use of the facility thus developed. Passage of time brings the realization that airports will play an extremely important part in the governmental planning for military operations in future years and communities which have such facilities properly developed will be in line to benefit accordingly. It is understood that the project has been written up in the hope that a means of making the necessary service available.

Should Lock Cars We would also like to warn those who park their cars in the main sections of town, then go away and leave the autos unlocked. Thats just as much of a temptation for thieves, as an insecure door. Several times weve nabbed culprits in the act of taking blankets and other articles from parked cars. If the drivers will just lock their cars when they leave them, it will stop a lot of this work. Gas Thieves Busy A special watch will be maintained for gas thieves during the conting winter months. Several reports and complaints have already been registered with offi cers and they promise court action for any person caught stealing gas. One suspect was hailed before Judge Smith early this week for alleged gas stealing activi-itiand further actions of a similar nature are promised. es TO ASSEMBLE HERE; DII.F.S.
