John E. Ballaine, who some weeks ago announced he would be a candidate for the Republican nom- ination for Representative from the First Washing- ton State Congressional District, which includes Seattle and King County, is having his troubles with the Republicdn organization and the Young Men's Republican Club of Seattle. The builder of Seward, Alaska, was billed recently as one of thel speakers at a meeting of the latter organization, but ! objected to a condition laid down by it that he was| not to endorse President Roosevelt. Ballaine also| said he had been notified he would not be per-| mitted to appear before any clubs controlled by | county organization unless he was willing' to abide | by the same ruling. With this limitation placed on him, Ballaine said he might change his mind about running as a Republican and file as an independent candidate. Whichever he does, we imagine the result will be the same. He has about as much chance of winning as either as Charlie Miller did of being elected Mayor of Seattle last Spring. | The Republican board of strategy has decreed that the party shall make the campaign next Fall on an out and out attack on President Roosevelt and the New Deal. With that as its policy, there ought to be no criticism of the organization which refuses to give a hearing to so-called Republicans who want to ride into office by clinging to the coat tails ,of the President. If there is to be an op- position, it must be open and positive. G. QP strategists have decreed that its candidates shall attack the President’s recovery program all along the ile. If Mr. Ballaine or any: othér Republican objects to that policy, they ought not to want to run as Republicans. | | | NRA TURNS TO CODE ADMINISTRA- TION. The announcement of the NRA in Washington of three new policies to govern code operation emphasizes again the manner in which the Ad—i ministration is transferring its activites from code | formulaton and drecting its efforts to code ad-| ministration. The new policies, adopted under the general principle of trial and error, will vitally Mter:!,\I “|to “aviation speculators.” | with Marshal Petain that another war would come lin sp jinterest in the improvement of police methods in | this, (of the globe. with private industry by the manufaciure of air- planes - in - Government factories.” It goes on in other references to note the need of having the Government ‘“encourage” such private provision of planes and clso to stimulate our export of planes. This, of course, doesn't please the militant Gen. “Billy” Mitchell, who sees here only a “white- wash” report and a pandering to Army generals and Presumably his irritation is increased by the report’s disagreement with his pet scheme for a single air force. But former Secretary Baker and President Comp- ton of Massachusetts Institute of Technology can hardly be suspected of easy delusions. They agree suddenly, and they would expect its beginnings in the air. But they do not get hysterical about their serious warning and recommendation. They would harness first a proved industry for the building task. 20 YEARS AGO From The Empire —— -~ — Frank Aldrich was chosen as the Grand President of the Pioneers of Alaska at the Grand Igloo of that organization.

(Daily Journal of Commerce, Seattle.) The Federal Department of Justice has the names of six thousand criminals on its “black-list” at present. Nearly one thousand criminals were rounded up last year. The Government is now actively “on the job” and the remaining six thou- sand realize that fact. Cases handled by the Federal authorities during the last eleven months resulted in nine convictions out of every ten brought to trial, and that “is something” these days. But i ite of the growing strength and prestige of Federal law enforcement powers, Assistant Attorney General Joseph Keenan recently reminded a gcon- ference of Governors that pris s gnforcement of law rests on their shoulders. !..#\i\fi “The structure of governmments=in the United States is such that it would be illogical to leave the problem of law enforcement.io Federal officers,” he pointed out. Mr. Keenan urged that the States co-operate under the law allowing them bilateral compacts on crime suppression, and he severely criticized the liberal use of pardoning and parole power by Governors which has been so conspicuous in recent years. One of the most important and helpful of the services afforded the cities, counties and States is through the Federal fingerprint files of criminals maintained at Washington. There are now four million, four hundred thousand such cards on file, each with ten finger impressions. An average of twenty-two hundred additional cards are being re- ceived at Washington daily from six thousand, seven hundred. law enforcement officers and agencies throughout the nation, and about forty-six per cent iof the records received are identified with prior ;ullen, Mrs, Henry Shattuck, Mrs. ae offenders. Considering the fact that there is so much politics in police circles; that every city and county and State has its separate police force, it it remark- able that there is any co-operation at all under a system that, we hope, is now gradually being re- placed with something more efficient. The indi- vidual officer may be ever so energetic, but the system often holds him in check. As long as we here in the Northwest have such |occurrences as the Bremerton “mass murders,” six ihuman beings killed and never a clue as to the !murderer or murderers, we would be negligent in our duty as law-abiding citizens if we take no the most crime-ridden country on the face Plenty of Whiskey, But—— (New York World-Telegram.) When we advocate lower-priced legal liquor we do not do so in the belief that cheap whiskey is a boon to society. Caro and Master Bertrand Caro left on the Princess Alice for the south. They were to visit in Van= couver, B. C., and Seattle. Miss] Caro was to enter Breamer, a school for young girls at Vancouver where she was to remain for the year. Mrs. Caro and Master Bertrand were to return to Juneau in time for the opening of school here. Mrs. Royal Arch Gunnison gave a tea in honor of Mrs. Ernest B. Hussey, of Seattle, wife of the well known thirty-third degree Mason, who was in Juneau conducting a cless into the higher degrees of the order. Weather for the previous 24 hours was cloudy with rain with a maximum temperature of 55 de- grees and a minimum of 48. Pre- cipitation was .08 inches. There was a large attendance at the Draper Club reception held the previous evening at the new library. reading room. A constant stream of visitors called between the hours of 8 o'clock and 10:30 o'clock. In the inner room Mrs. P. J. Mahone and Mrs. Charles Goldstein poured tea and coffee while other members of the club received the visitors. Membership of the club included Mrs. W. H. Case, Miss Lorraine Andrews, Mrs. E. D.

JOHNSON The Nation’s patrons of four types of stores, department, mail-order, geperal chain and variety chain stores, spent approximately $400,000,000 more during the first six months of 1934 than they did in the corresponding period of 1933. This was revealed by a survey of the International Statistical Bureau, Inc., it was announced by A. W. Zelomek, economist and director of that organization. Aggregate con- sumer expenditudes in the sales of the four types of stores amounted’ to $21100,000,000 ig the first half of this year, as compared to $1,700,000,000 for the’ first half of last year.
