Gentlemen: My filing for City Attorney of Anacortes was prompted by a an anticipation of service to the City in the post war world. Needless to say I was very pleased and indeed fortunate to be enabled, through the voters of Anacortes, to attain the position. However, cimcumstances arising from military service necessitate that I be absent from the City for an unknown length of time, which, optimistically enough, may not have seemed to extend as far in the future at the time of my filing as it may now appear to do. I am therefore compelled to apply for a military leave of absence from the office of City attorney of Anacortes, until such time as the Armed Forces have rebased me and I am enabled to accomplish the functions of the office as they Ehould be accompl$shed. If this application meets with your approval and acceptance I would propose that the duties and responsibilities of the office be carried on in my absence by my father, W. V. dells, Sr., and to that end, I appoint him Assistant City of .Attorney, subject to your approval. This letter makes belated appearance. Allotments of time while serving in the Army do not always turn out to be available for the purposes for which they were intended o® hence I have written late. I hope this has not caused you inconvenience. I hope still further and most fervently that in facing the great prospects to be offered by the post war world, the new Mayor and Council for the City of Inacortes look to the future with renewed vigor and artZicipation of great thingi for a greater Anacortes; and I hope I c@.n sharia In working for thoze great things.

Whereas, The post war development of the State of '.ashingtcn promises to be phenomenal. The natural advantages of this State such as the potential and actual hydro-electricower, the natural harbors (Of which Ana- cortes has one of the best, the moderate climate, the stabilized Labor conditions, are sure to prove attractive to prospective indus- tries and ?:.ereas, The tremendous export business that will take place with the Orient and Russia, the development of Alaska, the Skagit Hy -way, con- necting Skagit County directly with Eastern Washington with its vast amount of agricultural products with Anacortes as its natural outlet, the fortunate circumstance that placed Anacortes in its position at the entrance to Puget Sound with its fine harbor and safe anchorage, its extensive water front, its accessibility to cheap hydro -electric poorer and 7hereas, the above facts make it imperative that we the citizens of Anacortes make ready and prepare for our City's destiny as an impor- tant seaport and industrial center.

An artery of this nature along our waterfront will add greatly to our industrial facilities; it is also necessary because of the heavy hauling connected with industrial production; this artery will also remove the necessity of using; Commercial Avenue for this purpose. On the offshore side of this proposed artery are several miles of warehouse sites that will work in very nicely with the over -q11 plata In behalf of the above proposal we urge that your Honorable Body take the necessary steps to assure the adoption of this plan so that the interests and future of.Anacortes be protected and assured.
