GRAND JURY EVIDENCE
I have been asked repeatedly
here and in Ketchikan, to make
public my testimony before the
Federal Grand Jury now in session
in Ketchikan.
I believe that the public should
have all the facts, but in fairness to
Governor Gruening, chairman of
the Territorial Banking Board and
the other members of that board, I
have been reluctant to publicize
the evidence.
However, if the Governor and the
Banking Board will give their con
sent, I will be pleased to make this
material available to the public.

How water flows uphill...{\
I
Dip the bottom end of a towel in a basin of water, and watch
the moisture “creep” uphill. Eventually, the entire towel will
be soaked, due to the attraction of water molecules to the
molecules of cloth. This “capillary” attraction is one of many
strange characteristics of water.
WHY WK SAY "IT'S THS WATS IT
j The taste and flavor of beer are largely
determined by the nature of the water
used in brewing. The constant purity
and delicate flavor that make Olympia
so famous are directly attributable to
the rare brewing water drawn from
1 theOlympia Brewing Company's sub
terranean wells at Tumwater, Wash.
